All of the anime listed here are shows that I consider *true* favorites. I can't bring myself to restrict myself to MAL's limit of 10 when there are so many anime I consider a favorite (I do try to limit myself to a list of a tenth of the # of anime I completed though. As of writing my limit is ~37! ~~if you don't count the fact that most of my entries are part of the same franchise so i could easily cheat this system but shhhhhhh~~). If you want to know who I am as a person, watch all of these shows, as they are all the ones that have informed and taught me everything about myself. Though if you're struck for time, the top 13 shows are the ABSOLUTE must-watches.
1. All of K-On!
2. All of Hibike! Euphonium (including liz)
3. New Game! (Both seasons!)
4. Yama no Susume (from season 2 onwards)
5. All of Hidamari Sketch
6. Flip Flappers
7. 3-gatsu no Lion
8. Shirobako
9. Comic Girls
10. Gakkougurashi!
11. Yuru Camp△
12. Hug tto! Precure (this could either go up or down, i havent completed it yet)
13. Kyousougiga (idk if it's really better than KLK & GL. by this point the shows are veering between 10s and 9s and i can't decide)
14. Kill la Kill
15. Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann
16. All of Tamayura (need to rewatch bc i think i'd love it even more now as if that was even possible)
17. Non Non Biyori (the movie in particular but all of it is great)
17. Hunter x Hunter (2011) (tho im sure the 1999 ver. is amazing as well)
18. The End of Evangelion
19. The iDOLM@STER franchise (specifically Cinderella Girls but both are FUCKING amazing)
20. Gintama
21. Little Witch Academia
22. Koe no Katachi
(23-28 are all tied tbh i can't choose what to put above the others)
23. Koisuru Asteroid
24. Slow Start
25. Monogatari
26. Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon
27. Mob Psycho 100 (Both seasons!)
28. Barakamon
29. Ojamajo Doremi (I fell out of watching this.... I KNOW once I watch the later seasons this'll go up. But it's just.... so many episodes.....)
30. Hanayamata
Also, I feel I really should mention, since it's a big part of my otaku identity, Touhou is amazing and the overall doujin culture surrounding it is really interesting and worth getting into. If I were to count it as an anime (WHICH IT ISN'T), I'd probably put it in that batch of 20-24 that's all tied. It's really good. :))
(*)God.... I can't believe I knocked 3-gatsu down from 2 to fucking 7. I even called it tied with K-On for the longest time. I was *so* confident it'd be staying there. But as my life changed, and as I became a happier person in general.. suddenly the bouncy, boundlessly wholesome moe shows resonated with me more strongly than Rei's depression.
STILL A VASTLY INCOMPLETE WORK-IN-PROGRESS, NOT ACCURATE AT ALL, NOR IN ORDER YET.

Using Fantano's idea, each number consists of three different levels: light, decent, strong. Ratings can be just one number (e.g. Light 6), be in between different levels (e.g. Decent 7 to strong 7), or lead from one number to another (e.g. Strong 7 to a light 8). This rating system is just vague enough to account for some fluctuating opinions, but still precise enough to get an idea of my average opinion of a show.
1 is for series that I revile and offer nothing but things that I hate.
5 is for series that don't offer anything bad, but don't offer anything good either. Shows that offer an equal amount of good and bad things fall into this category as well.
9 is for series that are of exceptional quality, but may not be in that special camp of shows that are personally meaningful to me (though the strong 9s definitely are).
10 is for series that taught me something about myself, and the way I look at the world around me. It's a show that I would urge someone to watch if they would ever want to know who I am as a person. It doesn't mean that a show is flawless, just that those flaws are so minuscule compared to its positives that they're negligible to me.
All other numbers are just a gradient between the above numbers, and don't really need to be explained
