One of the few 'buddy' anime series. It's like a light Metal Gear Solid mixed with A Certain Magical Index. Not as good as either of those franchises but still a fun time.

Very cool high-concept premise, but the best part is the exploration of the main characters and the different minds of serial killers they venture into.

This romance series has such a unique melancholic atmosphere to it. This is just a good grounded high school series that captures the feel of the senior year very well.

A simple, fun idol show that is set within a surprisingly well realized fantasy world and magic academy. It's like an all-female Harry Potter but with a lot more pop songs.

Edgy in a good way with a really cool aesthetic. It's worth a shot since this series is a bit misunderstood by the community.

A fun sports anime with a sleek aesthetic. What surprised me most about this series is, despite what it may look like, the sport comes first, BL undertones second.

The CG animation is well done and the way it comments on the 'chosen one' trope is really interesting, all while being a fun ride.

Top notch animation presentation. The story takes a back seat to a rich, detailed look into a unique post-apocalyptic society that provides some great slice of life moments. It's an oddly beautiful anime.

Unrelenting violence to its most extreme levels. This show is non-stop epic fights that will genuinely have you at the edge of your seat. You can never be sure if the good guys will win, and if they do, boy does it feel earned.

Another quick watch, while a bit rushed this is a moving, action-packed story about seeking a place to belong while the world burns around you. Sad but beautiful.

The most accessible Yu-Gi-Oh to the general anime community. It's card games mixed with Dragon Ball power scaling. The plot and characters are engaging and the battles are numerous and epic. Seriously one of the best shounen anime in the last fifteen years.
