6. Soul Eater
Soul eater was my first anime, my first exposure to anime, and what a great gateway it was. I really don't know how to describe it, it made me want to just keep watching and finish it. It was truly a great feeling.
5. Fullmetal Alchemist
Ah the classic tale of the elric brothers. This is on here for the same reason that soul eater is, I can't put my finger on it but there story just took and wouldn't let go. I feel fullmetal alchemist did this differently, and better. Don't even get me started on the characters.
4. Wolf Children
Now this is actually a film, not a series. Wolf children tells the beautiful yet simplistic tale of a mother. Not just any mother, a mother who's children are part wolf. The characters were so likable and thy really made me root for them, even if they were wrong.
3. Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni
Now this is odd, because I don't normally like horror. However this show was, different. It has a unique type of storytelling that I really love. Also, it's not just horror. It fits so many genres into it while still making horror the main theme. If not sold, listen to shion laugh.
2. Angel Beats
The characters! That's all i can say, sure it has a great story but omg those characters. All likable, all relatable, all absolutely amazing. Angel beats is also very sad, before it, I've never cried watching a movie or show. I cried 4 times during angel beats. And that is a feat.
1. FLCL
What can I say other than I am the main character in this show. I relate to him so well. A young kid trying to grow up in a world full of craziness. That's my life, although it's not as literal. His craziness comes in the form of haruhara haruko, the best character evarrr. Omg this show is awesome, watch it now.
