None, because I really don't watch anime. I don't hate it (I don't even understand why people hate anime), it's just that I find it hard to get into. How am I supposed to understand the Ichigo/Rukia romance at about episode 88, or wherever [adult swim] drops me off? Also, buying the DVD box set doesn't make sense, since I'd have to be a fan of it in the first place to do that.
Classics: Cowboy Bebop, Sailor Moon & DBZ '00s and Today: Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom, Monster, Nana, Honey & Clover, Pretty Cure (The original & Max Heart) and Baccano.
I'd have to say Darker Than Black. It's the most original, and most touching of any anime I've ever seen. It is delightful. I recommend everyone checks it out.
@Castiel: I have to admit, I'm looking forward to this more than I should be. Mainly because of how well the last few seasons would work as an anime storyline. This is only covering the first few, though, so hopefully it does well enough to justify continuing on into the later seasons. Anime-fied Castiel and Crowley will be worth anything to see.
" How am I supposed to understand the Ichigo/Rukia romance at about episode 88"
What romance? You've been looking at the wrong information about Bleach if you think that's a thing.
For me its easily Tenchi Muyo Ryo-Ohki (OVA 1, 2, and 3), but FLCL and Gurren Lagann are right up there. I don't watch Bleach or One Piece, but I love the manga.
Did you read the part where I said that I don't watch anime? I just took two anime names, stuck them together, and hoped that they'd make sense. I could've said something about the Naruto/Sasuke rivalry, or something about Kira and L.
Fav anime movie: Ghost in the Shell Fav anime series: this is hard Ive seen a shit ton of them ..... well since it hasn't been mentioned Serial Experiments Lain
I don't know if I have a favorite but these would probably be at the top, Cowboy Bebop, Ghost in the Shell, Full Metal Alchemist, Dragonball, Dragonball Z, Gurren Lagann and probably a few of the ones that were on toonami.
Battle Angel - This is my favorite anime of all time. Well, as much as two episodes of a larger story can be. I hope that James Cameron doesn't fuck up the live action film.
Trigun - Since Battle Angel is only a two episode OVA, this is my favorite full anime.
Honorable Mention: Full Metal Panic Fumoffu - God Damn this is a funny anime.

Persona 4.....booom! I haven't watched much Anime mainly because I don't find any that keep me on for so long. I would love for them to make Persona 4 a full on anime with those same characters. but that would be a long series
I don't really like anime, for many of the reasons that are commonly listed by people who don't like anime. I have enjoyed it in the past, though. I've probably seen every episode of Dragon Ball Z just by virtue of watching it as a kid. Although it's deeply flawed, I still enjoy it, probably because of nostalgia. I thought the beginning of the first episode of Elfen Lied was pretty cool, because unmitigated violence can be entertaining. I really enjoyed what I saw of Cromartie High School, mostly because it seems to be making fun of all of those awful anime cliches. The English voice acting is (purposely, I hope) hilarious, as well.
Akira and Cowboy Bebop because they present a fairly real world with real characters interacting in a mostly real way unlike every other anime I ever seen.
