Mine used to be Yuru Camp, now it's Aria. The final six episodes of Origination are pure cinema.

I love nichijou and asobi asobase. If Manga is your thing Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou is the GOAT

[-] Davel23@fedia.io 2 points 1 day ago

Nichijo is the only correct answer.

Other than absolute masterpieces already listed by other users. These are some that I have rewatched and can think of.

Non Non Biyori
Flying Witch
Gabriel Dropout
Handyman Saitou in Another World
Encouragement of Climb

K-On!

It's been a while since I last watch it; I should do a rewatch...

[-] missingno@fedia.io 8 points 1 day ago

Azumanga Daioh is forever the GOAT.

YuruYuri is such a feel good and friendly anime and manga.

Just follows the life of the various girls in the tea club and some of their friends.

I've heard yuru camp is great and I've been meaning to watch it. I did start reading the manga for it recently.

Nichijou / CITY the Animation

[-] Vibi@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 day ago

My favorite genre! SoL often crosses into other genres, so my answer would probably vary depending on how open we can be!

On the Romance side there's just sooo many I love- My Dress-Up Darling, A Sign of Affection, Horimiya, You and I are Polar Opposites.

For music - K-On and most definitely Sound Euphonium (in my top 3 all time)

Topic-based- DIY, Ruri Rocks, Yuru Camp, New Game

General randomess - Saiki K, YuruYuri

If I had to pick just one it would be Sound Euphonium. Absolutely beautiful series 🎵

Some I like that I don't often see mentioned:

Supercub (motor bikes)

Silver Spoon (farming)

Diary of Our Days at the Breakwater (fishing)

[-] TacticalToothbrush@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 day ago

you mean Houkago Teibou Nisshi?
If not for covid situation I think it would have been more popular.

[-] anon6789@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

That's the one! Dang COVID. So many fish left in the sea they could have caught!

I also just remembered:

Working!! / Wagnaria!! (restaurant)

Do It Yourself!! (DIY project club)

Hanasaku Iroha (hot spring / traditional hotel)

[-] Rottcodd@ani.social 2 points 18 hours ago

Hanasaku Iroha is wonderful.

Azumanga Diaoh!

Runner up: Lucky Star

Distant 3rd: Shin-chan.

[-] DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 16 hours ago

I watched Azumanga Diaoh after finishing Lucky Star left a hole in my heart

[-] piconaut@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 day ago

Sketchbook full colorS is a good one.

Mushishi

[-] CsXGF8uzUAOh6fqV@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I really really cannot choose a single one. Aria is a great choice though.
