1. Ninja Scroll

Ninja scroll is my all time favorite anime. Number one on my list, I have watched it so many times I lost count.
Based around a swordsman who must fight a group on enemies all with a unique set of skills.
This is a must see anime, even though it was released back in 1993 it's one of the best.

Akira would have to be next on my list. It's another anime I have watched so many times and never get sick of it.
Set in the future in Neo-Tokyo, it's based around two members of a biker gang who get caught up in a secret military project.
I always appreciate the artwork of Akira, love it. An outstanding anime which was made in 1988.

This would be number 4 for me.
Samurai x is a 6 part series based around the life of a swordsman Rurouni Kenshin.

This is another anime which I have watched countless times and it never gets old.
