I decided to take advantage of Crunchyrolls get a free LootCrate when you subscribe to the 30 day trial.

So now I have 30 days of premium animes and no clue what to watch.

I had a look at the most popular, the first being Naruto which I have 0 interest in.
The second was Food Wars. So I thought, eh why not only to discover this show started out with a girl orgasming over food and then being molested by a squid. Not my cup of tea. :s

It's been a while since I've watched anime so I'm really out of the loop.
Shows I remember enjoying: Mushishi, Nana, InuYasha, Cowboy Bebop, Azumanga Daioh, pretty much everything Ghibli. There's more but it really has been a while.
So anyone got any recommendations? It doesn't have to be anime, crunchyroll seems to have a bunch of other stuff.

If others were interested in the free lootcrate deal, here's the reddit link I found it on:
https://www.reddit.com/r/freebies/comments/3joknp/get_your_first_box_of_lootcrate_free_when_you/
If this isn't allowed I'll remove it. O_O

And a train for those who are addicted to the +1

Most of the ones I would recommend have already been mentioned, so I'll just bring up Air Gear. It's a shame they only did one season of it, though, so you may want to pass on it for that reason. I'm still glad I watched it, however.

Nobody mentioned Fairy Tail? How is that possible?

Another anime title is one I laughed a lot with; Baka no Test. Nobody has mentioned it, but it's fairly common.

Air Gear, I think that was once upon a time on my "watch list" haha. If it's half baked I'll leave it though. Nothing more irritating than a series without resolve.

Fairy Tail might be good, it was 3rd after Food Wars when I was checking popularity.

I signed up for the 30-day trial and the free Loot Crate thing, but I have yet to get an email about the Loot Crate. Unfortunately, I've read about many cases of others not getting an email as well, so, I suppose a support ticket will be required. Did you have any trouble with it, Akantha?

Attack on Titan for starters, then Kill LA Kill for the comedy, and finally Hunter X Hunter to finish it off. You can try FMAB too, but I frankly saw nothing "spectacular" in it.

They have Natsume Yujin-cho and Natsume Yujin-cho Shi, which I think are supposed to be two separate seasons of the same show, I don't know why they named the latter something slightly different.

Yona of the Dawn is also really good.

Thanks for the info and the giveaways :3

As for anime to watch I see others have already recommended the good ones I was thinking about and I can't think of anything at the moment (even through I have plenty completed series in MAL - but my taste in anime is rather... bad xD).

If anything I just rewatched Bakuman which is one of my favorites - the plot is simple you have the 2 main characters that are aiming to become manga writers and get their manga to become an anime in which the crush/girlfriend of the guy doing the art of the manga will be the voice actress of the heroine and when that happens they will get married. It's a 3 season anime ~75 episodes in total

Most of the shows you mention in what you liked are in my favourites as well so I'm just gonna recommend anime I enjoyed and hopefully you might too.

-House of the Five Leaves: Short(12-13episodes) historical drama with bits of comedy. It's nothing spectacular but it's really enjoyable.
-Natsume Yuujinchou: It uses the same formula as Mushishi(indepent, episodic stories where the main character resolves some kind of issue in the spiritual world) only a bit more light hearted and not as depressing.
-Honey & Clover: Romance drama. Thankfully without the stupid "panties" humor or the adolescent jokes it follows the lives of some university students and the love triangles between them. Also has a great soundtrack with a unique piece playing during every episode.
-Planetes: A sci-fi slice of life anime following the everyday lives of some employees at a space station. If you like the setting but prefer something more comical you can try Space Brothers.
-Haibane Renmei. Not for the light hearted :P
-Baccano and Durarara(in that order)
-Blue Literature. The animated abridged versions of some classical japanese literature pieces.
-Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 . The story of two siblings and a woman that assumes the role of their guardian while trying to cross a post-earthquake Tokyo to get home. Prepare for feels.
-Usagi Drop. The story of a little girl and her adoptive father.

I'll stop here. You can find a bit more in my MAL if you want.
