His and Her Circumstances (Kare Kano). Such a gently told manic love story.

Probably my favorite anime
Also, it was directed by Hideaki Anno (Evangelion, Gunbuster)
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.
Jellyfish can't swim at night

There's a ton of anime that I *might* recommend to different people, depending on individual preferences and tastes:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JZR7jtU3q-LTqoWaGY-7YurPpvLpTIY0ybScvA1L0GQ/edit?usp=drivesdk
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
I watched a bit of in another world with my smartphone and it was peak garbage. I also downloaded the wrong 7 deadly sins once, unforgivably awful. I think I slogged through dog days while in my depressive always drunk phase.
actual recommendations: bna and little witch academia are my fav trigger (after infern cop obv.)
I dunno aku no hana for some weird rotoscoped shit thats kinda disturbing and stressful. The character visuals are more convincing than the manga version.
suisei no gargantia is probably the most any audience friendly mecha anime, apart from the breasty pirate literally named rackage being maybe a bit much.
knights of sidonia was probably the first all 3d anime I actually liked. I ended up watching a bunch of other stuff by the same studio and they have a distinct animation style and facial expressions that are easy to recognize as being the same studio.
the promised neverland for some dark shit, but I only saw season 1 and don't know if there even were more seasons. The manga version became a slog for me after that point in the story but I was also working full time++ when the anime ended.
attack on titan also became a chore for me after season 1 but it was a novel experience watching it for the first time.

Higurashi when they cry. Not the new stuff but the old stuff.
Just visited the village it's based off of IRL and man was it a sight to behold. Simply a beautiful area.
Cowboy Bebop, trigun and hajime no ippo
Macross 7 sounds incredibly stupid if you try and summarize it, but it's legitimately one of the best shows there is in my opinion.
Summary: Aliens attack a human colony fleet, and they fight back with a rock band flying into battle to sing at the aliens.
