Feeling like binging some Naruto crap this three day weekend. Not really up on what shows are considered good, so I'd appreciate any recommendations. For reference, here's what I've seen, split out into three tiers.
Loved Kill La Kill - Probably my favorite anime I've watched. Felt like an extreme over the top parody of the more offputting anime tropes, which I really appreciated. By the end I was unironically invested in the plot, deliberately stupid as it was. Honestly I'm tempted to just rewatch this show, but feel like I should try something new instead. Madoka Magica - Another parody (or deconstruction, more like) of anime tropes, this time focusing specifically on the magical girl subgenre. I was hooked throughout, and consider the Homura flashback episode (episode 10) one of the single best episodes of anything I've ever watched. I've seen Rebellion, though if that's the last Madoka Magica we get I'd have preferred they just leave it at the last episode of the anime. Psycho Pass - Season 1 was great, though it peaked somewhere around the middle of the season. Season 2 was pretty bad, and the movie was pretty forgettable, but I'm putting the show in this tier on the strength of its first season. Liked Cowboy Bebop - By the time i got to it, I think Cowboy Bebop was just overhyped. For its time I'm sure it was groundbreaking (especially the dub, and I usually don't watch dubs), but I watched it years later and it was just... fine. Enjoyable, but I feel like I missed its "moment." Attack on Titan - Addictive viewing, even if entire episodes could go by without advancing the plot a single inch. I haven't seen the second season yet, and would be open to just watching that upon suggestion. Hated Elfen Lied - Utter irredeemable unmitigated fucking trash, unfit for mortal consumption. I was sick and bedridden, and at the time someone had uploaded the entire series to YouTube. For whatever reason I watched the whole thing in one sitting, and death frequently looked like a viable alternative. Any recommendations are appreciated. Anime often scratches that "just one more episode" itch, and I'm looking for something like that this weekend. Thanks in advance! --- Sometimes science is more art than science, Morty.

Little Witch Academia
It's from the same studio that did Kill La Kill, though it's not nearly as over the top. It's about a bunch of witches in a magic school. It's pretty silly, but the second half is more serious than the first half. --- Posted with GameRaven 3.4 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Berserk '97 Can't believe I left some of these out! Feeling tired I guess. You can add Death Note to the love tier, and One Punch Man to the like tier. Will definitely look into the others! --- Sometimes science is more art than science, Morty. A lot of people don't get that. ... Copied to Clipboard!

If you have access to the Crunchyroll library I'd highly recommend The Vision of Escaflowne. It's one of the classic 90's anime and a meager 26 episode investment of your time.

I second these, and I'll also suggest: - Outlaw Star - Black Lagoon - No Game No Life - BlackRock Shooter - Princess Principal And if you're okay with watching a longer (more than 26 episodes) series: - Soul Eater - Shakugan No Shana - Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha --- "Someday I too will fly... and find you again!" http://i.imgur.com/C3Qouus.jpg ...

Thanks for all the recommendations everyone! After looking into all of them, I think Im gonna prioritize Little Witch Academia, FLCL, and Gurren Lagann. That being said, Ive got a lot of the others saved in a list to look into in the future as well!

Naruto crap recommendation (because a lot of the good ones have been taken already): Puzzle and Dragons X. I was just trying to lower my standards a bit, but I was legit getting invested in the character interactions while I did watch it. I just find something endearing about how the main quartet plays off of each other and the minor/recurring characters they meet.
Stuff I think is actually good. Legend of the Galactic Heroes Baccano! Ghost Stories (English Dub) Ouran High School Host Club Silver Spoon Haven't You Heard? I'm Sakamoto Samurai Flamenco Death Parade If you like One Punch Man, you'll probably also like Mob Psycho 100. Your Lie in April --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Elfen Lied was my first anime and I watched it an incredibly long time ago. I remember enjoying it but I dunno how it'll hold up if I rewatched it (just giving my thoughts since you hated it).
I don't watch much anime at all but I recently finished Future Diary and really liked it. Watched it subbed first, so the dub sounds weird to me. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA ...

Full metal alchemist is a "just one more" series. The original is 51 episodes, Brotherhood is a wee bit longer and broken up into 4 seasons. Ignore the live action
Neon Genesis Evangelion is pretty amazing, if you aren't down for the series they sort of rehashed it into 3 or 4 movies Ergo proxy takes itself a tad too seriously but is still very bingeable --- "Dib is my new hero. Epic insult man, epic to the max" ~ Drakona ... Copied to Clipboard!

What's good in the current season? Nothing that isn't a sequel, spin-off, or revival of an existing series. Seriously, this season is total shit in terms of original anime. The only one I saw that even interested me a little bit was a baseball anime called Gurazeni, and it's been decent so far. --- "WHAT THE HELL'S GOIN' ON OUT HERE!?" ~ Vince Lombardi https://i.imgur.com/fm6MRP4.gif ...
