1. Fullmetal Alchemist and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

Fullmetal Alchemist all the way. Amazing plot, amazing characters, and just overall amazing.

2. Hunter x Hunter

Hunter x Hunter is definitely a great one because it's funny, full of friendship and trust, and never gets boring.

3. Durarara!!

It's sort of like shopping for a new pet. You're in the "pet store" (on the internet) and you're looking around, and wow that fish is sorta nice and wow that doggie in the window might be good, BUT THEN YOU SEE THE ONE. THAT CAT, STARING RIGHT AT YOU, AND YOU KNOW SHE'S THE ONE AND YOUR LIFE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN.

YU YU HAKUSHO IS HANDS-DOWN THE BEST ANIME EVER. It was the first one I ever watched and I have re-watched the series more than five times. It's about a boy who dies but has a chance to come back to life by completing missions in the spirit world. I highly suggest you watch it!

Soul Eater is a very good beginner anime. You get a very slow introduction into the anime world and it is not very overwhelming.

6. Fruits Basket

My first anime was Fruits Basket. It was an easy one to start to delve into.

Ore Monogatari!! (My Love Story!!). It's essentially about the shyest, oddest, cutest couple falling in love. If you want to see a stereotypical unpopular jock-like boy fall head-over-heels for the cutest shyest girl this is what you need to be watching. It's absolutely precious.
