- Fate/Zero (my current top 1)
-Og Fullmetal Alchemist, because brotherhood was probably already recommended to the entire world.
-Ga-Rei-Zero
-Jin-Rou
-Eiga Daisuki Pompo-san
-Houseki no Kuni
-Aku no Hana (yes, THAT anime adaptation).
-Top wo Nerae! Gunbuster (or og Gurren Lagann, if you will)
-Toradora!
-Kaiba
-Shiki (people should talk more about this and Kaiba, this one has also one of the best Special episodes I've ever seen)
-Higurashi no naku Koro ni (not sotsugou for god's sake).
-Shinsekai Yori.
In general, in a world where the conversations around horror anime almost always shift towards Elfen Lied and Another (where neither is particularly great in my opinion), I think Shiki, Higurashi and Shinsekai Yori also deserve their place in mainstream conversations (more than the first two, I'd even say).
He didn't say stampede so yes, I'm assuming it's the old one until proven wrong
