I'm looking for: A certain genre? Something specific like characters traveling to another world?

What are some episodes you consider absolutely perfect?


What are some episodes you consider absolutely perfect?

I recently was thinking about this, what are some episodes that you consider perfect from start to finish. Specificly, I was thinking about episodes that someone could probably just watch that single episode and still have a complete(-ish) story. Also, obviously, I'm a little biased. So, some episodes I have thought of are:

Pluto ep 1 (the second part specificly)

Mob psycho s2 ep 7

Dandadan ep 7

Attack on titan s4 ep 20 (some context is required, compared to the rest, but I think it easily makes the list)

Violet evergarden ep 10

Jojo part 6 ep 31 (unfortunately, I can't think of another episode that makes the list)

Mushoku tensei s2 ep 17

Charlotte ep 13

Code geass s2 ep 25

Oshi no ko ep 1

Orb ep 23

Hxh ep 135

Cautious hero ep 11

There are probably some frieren episodes that make the list. Unfortunately, I can't think of a single episode of vinland saga that feels complete enough. And… Yeah, I would be happy to hear other people's additions or disagreements.

Edit: episodes I missed and people in the comments said
Takopis original sin ep 1
Jjk culling games ep 4
To your eternity ep 1
Cyberpunk ep 10

What are the most beautiful/best animated COMPLETED anime you’ve seen?


What are the most beautiful/best animated COMPLETED anime you’ve seen?

I recently watched Violent Evergarden + The movie and I thought it was genuinely one of the most beautiful animes I've ever seen. It's not normally something that I care much about with anime but it got me wondering what out there was really the peak of this.

OH but I love to absolutely binge series of animes so if you have something please only tell me if it's 100% complete so that I can watch something beautiful from start to finish without feeling disappointed that it never got a second season or was only 1/5th of the manga or something!

EDIT: I wasn't expecting so many responses. Thank you everyone I really appreciate it. I can't take the time to respond to everyone but I'll try where appropriate and if I end up watching your suggestion I'll make sure to come back and let you know.
