I used to watch a lot of anime back around the turn of the century when it was really popular here in the U.S. I greatly enjoyed the likes of Sailor Moon, Gundam Wing, Dragon Ball Z, Cardcaptors (a.k.a. Cardcaptor Sakura), Cowboy Bebop, Ghost in the Shell (the first two movies and series), Inu Yasha, Astro Boy, Magic Knight Rayearth, The Big O, Rurouni Kenshin, Yu Yu Hakusho, and Naruto, and these days I enjoy Attack on Titan. Most of all though, I enjoyed a number of anime movies, from Akira to Grave of the Fireflies, and of course Studio Ghibli masterpieces like Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, and my favorite anime movie of all time, The Tale of the Princess Kaguya.
Overall though, the truth is that the general quality of anime has taken a nosedive over the course of the current century. Aside from Attack on Titan, none of the new material I've seen on Toonami in recent years has appealed to me, including Dragon Ball Super (which I have yet to enjoy a single moment of). Anime today seems overwhelmingly dependent on rigid formulas and pathetically cheesy humor to a degree that it was not in the past.
