This thread is dead, but I'll post my 2c anyways.
First off, golden boy did not get nearly enough mention. It may not have as much oppai jiggling and pantsu shots as modern prototypical /e/ shows, but its one of the most hilarious things ever to have been animated. To me its a clear cut above everything else.
Also no mentions of Ichiban Ushiro No Dai Mao? (the retard who mentioned it along with Asobi No Iku Yo doesn't count)
Yea, the ending was a trainwreck, but if you can overlook that then it was a pretty much the best you can get from a /e/ show. If the second half of the season was the same as the first, my dick would not be alive right now. Badass MC, mostly good girls (blue, purple, and green manage to drown out the boner killing, vomit inducing trash that is red), good plot for the first half of the show.
I really got the feeling that the setting mattered for this show. Most /e/ shows you can take the cast and transplant them anywhere and it would be more or less the same. In Dai Mao the setting and the world were pretty well fleshed out and interesting in and of themselves.
Ladies vs Butlers gets some well deserved mentions, but perhaps too many. I don't think there is much to set it apart from other good /e/ shows like MM or Princess Lover, or Omamori Himari, all of which have a similar art style and vibe,but none of which got mentioned.
Anyways. I've watched almost everything I could find on anidb and bakabt and nyaa with an ecchi or harem tag. I don't think my autism would let me sift through all of that and come up with a proper top 3/5. Instead I'll do the only /e/ shows I've ever dropped.
Will be in next post,comment too long.
