4. The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (2006)
- Genre: Slice of Life, Comedy, Meta Science Fiction.
- Why watch it: This series redefined slice of life by focusing on a protagonist who is unconsciously a deity capable of rewriting reality. The series was a cultural phenomenon (“Haruhiism”) and is famous for its ingenious narrative, humor, and the introduction of the concept of “non-chronological order” in broadcasting.
Toradora is missing from this list

Oh Code Geass was my favorite mecha anime after Gundam, until I saw Aldnoah Zero and Valvrave Liberator
