Something unique. A fresh perspective with its own insight and spin on things.

Preferably one that is complete and not a 100 episodes just for the prelude.

Undubbed is cool. Something metaphysical or spiritual, even better. Death Note was dope, as was Monster and Erased.

Whatchu got?

To give one that normally doesn't get enough mentions as other typical/classic choices, I'd go with Made In Abyss.

86. Gotta give it 3-5 eps to cook. But after that it’s great. 23 episodes gives you a very satisfying story/arc. Also very little troupes which is a breath of fresh air compared to most anime.

Check out RELife from a few years ago.

It's about a guy a few years removed from school whose life isn't going as planned and he is presented with a chance to go back in time to switch it up.

It's not a full adaptation but I think it was really well done

In a man-made underground society, descendants of a banished generation vie for control of the crumbling city of Lux. Ichise, an orphan turned prize fighter, loses a leg and an arm to satisfy an enraged fight promoter. On the brink of death he is taken in by a young woman doctor and used as a guinea pig for the next evolution of Texhnolyze. With his new limbs, Ichise is taken under the wing of Oonishi, a powerful leader of Organ, an organization with some hold on Lux. As Ichise is drawn deeper into a war for territorial control of the city, he learns of his possible future from the young girl prophet Ran, who guides him from the shadows in his darkest times. With the explosion of the warfare, Ichise must uncover the truth about Lux and fight for his survival as he realizes his destiny.
