My anime tastes are fairly broad. I tend to prefer Shounen, Seinen, psychological, mystery and comedy but I'm more than happy to watch drama, romance, echii etc. if the show resonates with me. I'm generally not a huge fan of drama for the sake of drama, pure romance and pure tragedies but even then there are exceptions.
I've written brief comments on most of the series in my watchlist if you wanna know what I think about a specific series (although given that most of them were written multiple years after viewing they are likely to be biased. Also keep in mind I don't always have a lot to say about individual seasons so you will find a lot of the latter seasons of a show blank ).
A little note on my recommendations. I've tried to give proper justifications that are possible for you "to weigh" when contemplating whether you wanna watch what I'm recommending (e.g. if I say show B has more drama you can reflect on whether that's too much drama for you or closer to the level you're looking for). These short descriptions are meant to reflect the type of experience I had with the show and what drove my interest when watching rather than superficial similarities (I can't believe people are basing recommendations on things like the sex of the protagonist or that both shows are set in a school environment -_-). I'm also trying to avoid obvious recommendations that you could probably figure out by yourself. I feel like a good recommendation links shows that are not the necessarily the same but rather can be enjoyed by the same person. If some of the recommendations seem a bit strange to you, that is most likely the reason, or it may be that I'm partially insane.
My rating scale:
10: Basically perfect barring nitpicking. I wouldn't know how to even begin to improve it.
9: Effectively a 10. It may be a 10 that is not exactly aligned with my tastes, or a show that does a lot right but has one glaring flaw.
8: A 7 that is a cut above the rest. 8+ is what I consider a great show almost universally worth watching.
7: Basically a good show. This is my baseline for a show I enjoyed or a show that is basically well made
6: A mediocre show that is a step above average/forgetable(5) or a good show (7-8) that has too many flaws to overlook.
5: Middle of the line average. Barely passable. A show you probably wouldn't rewatch and about the lowest rating I would bear recommending.
4: A show that I would probably tell my past self to skip. A semi-decent show that has one too many flaws and is therefore rendered borderline bad
3: A bad show with some redeeming qualities or a contentious show with some undeniable issues that is a bad match for my tastes
2: A firmly bad show with little to no redeeming qualities
1: A god-awful abomination
Feel free to message me if you wanna discuss something, a recommendation etc.

Thanks for the recommendations man, and for the thought you put into them!! I've heard good things about Houseki no Kun. I have seen Tanoshii Muumin Ikka as a recommendation but I never considered it. I'll put it on my ptw. You know someone who's opinion I respect said the very same thing about Lucky Star. I might just watch it though hehe. Because the same person said you must "watch the bad shows to know what's good".
Sure thing. Our tastes are definitely pretty different but I do see you enjoyed a couple of SOL. So here are some good one's in my opinion.
1. A Place Further Than The Universe . CGDCT but better, with a more progressive story and has more development in characters, compared to other CGDCT.
2. Violet Evergarden . A touching story that explores trauma, loss and suppressed emotions.
3. Aria the Animation . A slow but thoughtful anime filled with themes about life and its joys.
4. Yuru Camp. Peak CGDCT, portrays what you expect from the genre perfectly. Literally the most "natural" anime ever (no pun intended :])in it's story and character interactions.
5. Whisper of the Heart . A simple but reflective story about the creative spirit, inspiration, and companionship.
So yeah those animes I think may be of interest to you. Hope you like them when you do watch and I'd like to hear your opinions after.
Btw, I have been planning to watch Hajime no Ippo. What did you like about it, that made it good enough to be listed in your favs?
That's fair, I think it depends on the anime too (or the person) when it comes to how much spoilers affect viewing experience. Like for eg; getting spoilers in Death Note can be an issue, but in a Slice of Life or Romance it wouldn't so much. I don't mind spoilers much (or atleast try too).
Would you have any recommendations for me? Based on my favs
