For me it's Vinland Season 2 and Frieren for storytelling. Jujutsu kaisen 2 and The Eminence in Shadow Season 2 for raw fun.

Here's my Top 10 list for anime in 2023:

  1. The Eminence in Shadow Season 2 (Absolute peak Isekai with superb comedy and action, it masterfully blends absurd chuuni antics with meaningful and intricate plot points, though it requires you to know the anime tropes that it is parodying for maximum enjoyment.)

  2. Trigun Stampede (A masterpiece in storytelling that builds upon and surpasses the original Trigun, I at first thought it would be a 3D CGI flop and it vastly exceeded my expectations. This anime also does not require any insider knowledge of anime tropes to be enjoyed.)

  3. The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You (Another comedic parody type anime that requires knowledge of anime tropes, but it is just the ultimate harem rom com anime.)

  4. I'm in Love with the Villainess (Amazing gay rom com that actually straight up says that the main character is a lesbian. There is also some revolutionary undertones and class conflict present between the nobility and commoners but it's not yet fully explored. Has some weird and disappointing parts but the high notes more than make up for it.)

  5. Heavenly Delusion (An epic adventure with weaving plot lines and mysteries behind every corner. While I enjoy dark anime this one also has some very weird horny anime stuff as well, the rest of it however is amazing.)

  6. Helck (Haven't watched the last few episodes actually but thus far it has had a great story which has unexpectedly only gotten better and better over time. Some of the gags fall flat for me but on the plus side there is no weird horniness at all.)

  7. Insomniacs After School (The utter peak of chill and atmospheric anime, it is an amazing slice of life which can be slow at times but the overall story is still very nice and wholesome.)

  8. Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury Season 2 (The ending was not the best and also the no marriage retcon by Bandai is horrible but besides that it still is a very good mecha anime about two gay girls.)

  9. KamiKatsu: Working for God in a Godless World (Beyond wacky and absurd, this is another incredible Isekai which is a lot deeper than it might appear at first. While there are a lot of good and bad anime tropes parodied here it is still full of many exciting and unique plot developments.)

  10. The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady (Another gay Isekai anime where the main character says to the camera that they are a lesbian, this one has more episodes which fall flat and ironically is not as revolutionary as I'm in Love with the Villainess, but the overall story is still very good with plenty of interesting twists and turns.)

Oh I completely forgot about Kamikatsu. The whole anime is a giant shitpost. Peak
