A basic recommendation of anime classics starting from the important year 1963 when Astro Boy debuted. Only one anime per franchise allowed, and selection is partly based on watchability, so you can get right into what seems interesting.

This is part 3 of 5, it covers 1987–1998.

Part 1 (1963–1974): https://myanimelist.net/stacks/57261
Part 2 (1975–1986): https://myanimelist.net/stacks/57265
Part 4 (1999–2010): https://myanimelist.net/stacks/57273
Part 5 (2011–2022): https://myanimelist.net/stacks/57279

This part covers the years OVAs was most popular. And Ghibli produced a lot of classics, like Whisper of the Heart. Shoutout to the abundance of important anime of 1998 (Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Outlaw Star, CardCaptor Sakura, Serial Experiments Lain, Initial D, Yu-Gi-Oh, Perfect Blue, His and Her Circumstances).
