50. Mob Psycho 100 S2
https://anilist.co/anime/101338/Mob-Psycho-100-II/

While I liked S1, I did find problems in its overall narrative and how jumpy a lot of the development was with the characters. I also didn't quite find the arcs as engaging as I think they should have been. S2 basically solves all of these issues. There is a great balance in "fun fights" and "actual fights". There is a level of change and development in Mob that I think makes him a distinctly different personality than he was early on. The stories themselves are more interesting, and the end boss is more personal with more at stake. Unlike the previous season which gets by on the "feel" of the show, this season really makes every moment seem important.

49. Humanity has Declined
https://anilist.co/anime/10357/Humanity-Has-Declined/

Humanity has Declined is a strange anime that I'd describe as a cynical dark comedy masquerading as a cute show. The situations and circumstances are out there, but a similar situation is feasible. The humor is pretty spot on a lot of the time, although it does rely a little on being weird more than funny sometimes. The setting itself could be considered darkest timeline futurama. The show is also among the most memable of the decade with one of the greatest scenes in "the bread guide".

48. Kiss Him, Not Me
https://anilist.co/anime/21686/Kiss-Him-Not-Me/

While not very original in its content or overall set up, Kiss Him, Not Me wins in execution and the presentation of the comedy. My god, this show is hilarious and a lot of it is because of how engaging with the story and cast the main girl is. It's a very common issue in reverse harems where the main girl is a complete no one with no personality, you think it's bad in normal harems with the dude? My god. I don't know if you know any real life Fujoshis, but the more dedicated ones are among the most annoying subsets of a fan base I can think of. This anime makes a character that should be, by all means, distinctly unlikable from real life experiences to someone you want to see succeed somehow... although most of the time it is her own otaku nature that gets in her way.

47. Shimoneta
https://anilist.co/anime/20910/SHIMONETA-A-Boring-World-Where-the-Concept-of-Dirty-Jokes-Doesnt-Exist/

Do you hate censorship? Shimoneta tells a story about a world where things are so censored that the meme of "hand holding being lewd" is a reality. Or it would be if people had a concept of what "lewd" actually was. While the show is funny, a lot of it is won because of the situation and the characters. Like Anna, probably the thirstiest girl of the year, just the situation shes in due to who her character is makes it fun to watch. Or Otome, who has to draw lewds with her mouth because the government has a way to detect drawings you do with your hands. It's dumb things like that which give the show that added layer of comedy on top of the everything else. Even the side characters like that big dude and the always tired science girl who wants to know about "body melding" are great.

46. Golden Kamuy S2
https://anilist.co/anime/102977/Golden-Kamuy-2/

Golden Kamuy is another show where I don't really like the first season (and it won't be the last one), the cast is not fleshed out enough and the early part of the season is pretty bad. Things just don't fit together as much as they should. But very early into the second season you start to see how, one of the best casts of the decade, start to interact with each other as enemies and temporary allies in shaky alliances. Another big improvement is the animation quality. Although some shaky moments do exist, none of it is as memeable as the CG bear from S1. I think one thing this anime does especially well is it builds a mystique around its characters that matches up to their in world reputations.
