I don't think it really matters which ones, but people need to see their share of genuinely garbage anime, 2/10 and worse, before they have a proper perspective for judging good anime. Zig Forums has too many idiots that get upset everytime a 7/10 becomes popular despite being far from perfect

Neon Genesis
Lain
Haruhi
Steins Gate

The Rapeman.

Utena

You might have had an iota of credibility had you mentioned king of the hill.
Inuyasha.
