    What is your #1 anime and why? I don't want arguments or the thread to derail so no discussion on why a specific anime sucks or is boring.

    Mine was Katekyō Hitman Reborn!. The beginning was a little eh, but it got better as it progressed. I wish they had finished the last two arcs.

    Code geass.. a smart anti-hero going against the government with mecha and a terorist/revolusionist squad just strike my favorite genre soft spot. Lol

    One piece. Because it's too funny. The characters are hilarious. I've never watched an episode and not laughed

    For me, it's Tengen toppa Gurren Lagann. The never give up and always moving forward attitude has inspired me. Plus the ending is my favorite since there are no cliches.

    Doraemon, my first anime as well as manga. I like gimmicks and gadgets. ^___^

    There are plenty others that are great but being the first and not horrible always has its advantages.

    For me it's Tenkuu no Shiro Laputa (also known as Laputa / Castle in the sky)

    It's one of the first anime I watched and I happened to really enjoy it.

    Cross Game ( I assume the intent of this thread is for us to try to 'sell' our favourites to you, if yes, here is my pitch)
    There are several outstanding anime, however, if I had a choice to save one anime from obliteration in a world where all anime were going to cease to exist, this would be it.
    Cross Game is a sports anime with slow romance, and a solid plot to boot. Never once will you see the story forced or characters dumbed down. The cast's personae are well fleshed and there is ample character development throughout fifty episodes. At no point of time did I feel that I was forcing myself just to get to the next plot point. I did not even notice the filler episodes except in retrospect, because they were very enjoyable.
    (Slice of life, Rom com, School).

    its really hard to decide number 1 anime for me, but if I have to choose it would be Hunter X Hunter(remake), followed by aldnoah zero.
