    In no particular order (maybe)

    1. Ghost in the Shell (all seasons, even if they had different names)
    2. Dragonball Z (you either wanted to be Goku or Vegeta, simple as is)
    3. Claymore (short, and holy fuck did it go hard at times)
    4. Fullmetal Alchemist (even if it went off-trial, I still loved it!)
    5. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (a more-true to the manga release - also dope!)
    6. Samurai Champloo (they had Dutch-speaking characters! Also made me learn a bunch of Dutch history and how we used to trade with the Japanese since 1609 because of an Englishman called William Adams (Miura Anjin)!)
    7. Alfred J. Kwak (Kwak the Duck - あひるのクワック- my childhood favorite)
    8. Ox Tales/Boes (a childhood classic)
    9. Dommel/Wowser/Bigger and Better: Dommel & Ron (another childhood classic)
    10. Moomins (a Finnish classic!)

      I so rarely see other people rank FMA’03 over Brotherhood, but I really preferred it. The more serious tone, the origins of the homunculi, the much stronger ending (“better” is debatable, but it was definitely strong), and most of all, the Pride reveal. '03 revealing it like 2/3 of the way through the series made for a better twist. I’m so happy I was able to avoid that particular spoiler until I watched the show, because that blew my goddamn mind

      An honorable mention to who actually killed Winry’s parents. Having us grow to like the guy for a while before revealing that particular sin was a stronger choice than just saying “yeah, the antagonist did it”
