Pantheon.

Really thoughtful and smart sci-fi animation. Don't want to spoil it so I'll be vague, it has the most realistic depiction of modern tech and how people interact with it than any other show I've seen. Really great commentary on big tech corporations and even a bit of geopolitics. Super ambitious yet it somehow pulls it off.

There is also a scene that still gives me nightmares (not even joking, I still dream about that shit) which is more than any horror movies or shows have done for me. Anyone who has watched it knows exactly what scene I'm talking about.

There's a ton of anime that I *might* recommend to different people, depending on individual preferences and tastes:

But the one that I come closest to recommending everyone, without qualification, would be:

"Keep Your Hands off Eizouken"

It's basically a love letter to:

* joys and challenges in the process of creative collaboration
* how each success begets further goals
* how reflecting on details and oddities of the world adds to art

#Anime

I'll throw in my most recent guilty pleasure is Space Battleship Yamato. I didn't grow up with the original so I'm currently re-watching the 2012 remake. But for fun at the start I watched episode one of the original Yamato, Star Blazers (70s American localization) and the remake in the same day just to compare, which was a cooler experience than I expected it to be.

Great show if you think One Punch Man would be better if Saitama was a spaceship

Frieren for anime - It has everything I love about anime.
MASH for TV show (version without laugh tracks) - Kind of old, but even now, the humor is not outdated.

Everybody kind of slept on it but I really like AppleTV's See. Really unfortunate name for a pretty interesting premise, and the fight scenes are brutal and very well shot.

Cowboy Bebop, trigun and hajime no ippo

Yes many. Probably more than I will ever watch :P

If I did not recommend them yet I also can't stop doing that.

I did too much math today....
