My favorites of what I've watched/read in the last 12 months or so:
1. Vinland Saga
2. Jujutsu Kaisen
3. Thermae Romae
4. One Piece (not up to date at all though)
5. Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead
I've only really had the time for newgen and normie anime, lately, besides a few days of binge-reading Thermae Romae. I promise I'm not a complete poser.
All time favorites:
1. Guren Lagann
2. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
3. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure
4. One Piece (even just what I've seen)
5. Vinland Saga (i'm manga only doe
)
6. Thermae Romae
7. Dragon Ball Z
8. Dragon Pilot
9. Ouran High School Host Club
10. A tie between Jujutsu Kaisen and SAO: Alicization
I like cool anime and manga where cool things happen, and anything with an interesting art style. JoJo's and Vinland Saga stuck out to me so much in part because their art directions are so distinct compared to a lot of anime and manga. Otherwise, I like anime with good energy to them, and I'm partial to oddities within the medium; Thermae Romae is a manga about a Roman guy who time travels to modern Japanese bathhouses and uses the innovations he discovers to become a really famous bathhouse builder. It's completely absurd, but not in the schlocky overstimulating way most Japanese media attempts to be absurd; remarkable historical accuracy, gentle and good humor, and the mangaka's thinly veiled obsession with Rome and Italian men converge into an organically strange and fascinating experience, even if it is at the same time small-scale, campy, and straight-forward. For the little girl lovers, Dragon Pilot is really good; a shy girl joins the Japanese air force and finds out her unit flies dragons disguised as fighter jets. I think it's also vore fetish content, but it's easy enough to look past it when the girls are adorable and the weird science fantasy stuff is combined with cool plane stuff and cute slice-of-life antics. The ED is also the main characters singing "Le Temps De La Rentrée" by France Gall. Nessuno put me onto it when he posted that in the J-den like two years ago. Thanks, Nessuno!
