95. The Unlimited Hyoubu Kyousuke
https://anilist.co/anime/16005/Zettai-Karen-Children-The-Unlimited--Hyoubu-Kyousuke

-The Unlimited is a Zettai Karen Children spinoff where you basically need no real prior experience with the franchise. I think this is among the more underrated shows of the year. If you want a comparison its kind of like if you would follow Magneto around as he tries to find a way to bring psychics to the forefront of humanity while getting the same same protections. It might follow through some typical antihero story notes, but it's worth a watch.

94. Hunter x Hunter (2011)

... Maybe they'll have a new O... "YOU CAN FLLLYYYYY"
-HxH 2011 is an updated adaptation of the original 1999 series. Since then... I think some more stuff was made? I don't know, they don't call it Hiatus x Hiatus for nothing. This anime is here by the strength of some of its arcs like Yorknew and the Hunter exam which I enjoyed quite a bit. I don't think they really have "bad" arcs in this show but they do tend to drag on a bit too long. I also remember liking a lot of the fights in the show. I think this is a show that is better than individual parts because on a surface level the only character I really like is Killua which is why it lands in the mid 90s.

93. Natsumes Book of Friends S3 (S4 2012, S5 2016, S6 2017)

Note: Linked is the first season.
-Natsume's book of neverending friends as I call it is kind of a more feel good version of mushishi. I'm genuinely impressed it has managed to get 6 seasons for something that while I think is very good, is also something that I see as being pretty niche. Because this has gone on for so long I'll just talk about how I feel about the whole franchise right now in general. The anime has really good character interaction between Natsume and the various yokai he meets. Each of them have some sort of story to be discovered and the show in general does a good job at making you feel a small connection in a short amount of time for the oneoffs. The reoccurring characters have gained significant characterization over the course of the series and act as good reminders for Natsume in how far he's come since the start of the series. Madara (Nyanko-sensei) might be the best non humanoid character of all time.

92. Strike Witches S2
https://anilist.co/anime/6381/Strike-Witches-2/

-Strike Witches doesn't really have a lot of story or anything, and in the second season they don't quite have the character beats as in the first one, the cast is still extremely likable which is what really carries the show to this spot on the list. It can't be overstated how good the cast is in this show, look at other shows with large cute girl casts like say... Ange Vierge, what a disaster that show is. The fan service itself is more just kind of there, a lot of it is used more for comedy than anything. Apparently this franchise is still fairly popular in Japan, although it has not reached the same level of overall quality since this season.

91. Watamote
https://anilist.co/anime/16742/WATAMOTE-No-Matter-How-I-Look-at-It-Its-You-Guys-Fault-Im-Not-Popular/

-If Watamote does one thing extremely well it's making a character who is... by all means a terrible person (she cheats at Karuta against a bunch of kids) very endearing overall. This anime has some of my favorite scenes from the entire decade which are amplified through very good episode long comedic setups. The "massager" gag is great. But my favorite scene has to be the Death Note parody, I remember my anime club watched this and the entire room burst out laughing when it happened.
