85. Kokkoku
https://anilist.co/anime/100332/Kokkoku

Kokkoku is more or less a psychological mystery series that is made by its cast. The premise and story itself is decent and offers some good thinking points, but doesn't really satisfy some of the more outrageous leaps they pull towards the end of the show. However, this anime has a great cast of characters, less for making them all enjoyable people, but for each of them bringing something very unique to the show. Their personalities are prevalent in ways where you can somewhat predict they might do something before they do it feels deeper than simply playing to a character type.

84. Usagi Drop
https://anilist.co/anime/10162/Usagi-Drop

There is a small subgenre of shows I call "parent and child" anime where an older character (usually 30 somethings) takes care of a younger one. In almost all cases the show is very cute and usually has some comedy too. Usagi Drop, at least as far as like the anime and... a good portion of the manga, represents the heights these shows can go. It doesn't do anything big or exciting, nor is it loud or boisterous, it doesn't have to be. The simple growth of Daikichi as a character and watching Rin is enough here.

83. My Hero Academia

"I AM HERE"
-The landscape of shounen anime has changed a lot in this decade and at the forefront of it is MHA. While, I do think the show plays it relatively safe in how it handles things and overall could be made to be more interesting, the presentation and execution is top notch. The cast is very large, but when it wants to focus on individual characters even a little they manage to expand how much you know or appreciate the character by quite a bit. After the first season I really liked Froppy a lot, and I still do, but future seasons gave more development to both Momo and Ochako and it's exceedingly difficult for me to pick a favorite girl. Bakugo is possibly a top 10 male character of the decade in terms of how is portrayed and developed throughout the current run. Of course the show has some great overall art quality, fight scenes, and a very good soundtrack. Basically a complete package.

82. CardCaptor Sakura Clear Card

-CCSCC is a sequel to the original show, and while the OVA and such kind of primes you for this season, I'd say it might be somewhat difficult to just jump in. First off, the show looks incredible, it looks like they redid an old title with new technology. AFAIK the original cast is also voicing the show, which is quite something considering how much time as past. In terms of production this show really nails it. I think what really sells me on this anime though is just how imaginative it is. Every time Sakura gets a new card and you see how it works in action is just a real treat. Once you mix that with some nostalgia and already fun characters you have a real fun watch.

81. A Certain Scientific Railgun

"Onee-sama"
-Railgun is a spinoff of Index and imo is the easiest to enjoy out the franchise. Mikoto Misaka's ability allows for better overall action scenes and the more lighthearted cast compared to Index and the later Accelerator spinoff also lets the show have better slice of life style moments as well. If you're wondering if you need to watch Index, it kind of helps but the franchise goes out if its way to make sure that characters that are central to the science side (Railgun) and the magic side (index) rarely interact. The only real exception is Accelerator. This works out fine for Railgun, but you can tell, especially in Index 3 that its not really working out. Railgun itself though is very fun to watch, it has a rocking soundrack and Mikoto is great. There is a ton of good comedy too. Hell, I even like Kuruko.
