I've yet to meet a single fan of the VN that didn't think the anime was any better than utter crap. Well . . . maybe ONE who thought the anime was just crap. And this is not a much of an exaggeration. I no of no one who is a fan of the VN that actually LIKE the anime. It's that bad in terms of cutting stuff out of the story. Umineko is better in that it doesn't cut things out; it just gives too much time for little things and glosses over major events.

GoShogun The Time Stranger hands down the best ride through a person's lifetime

Baccano! For the Pulp Fiction Timeline vibe
Wind Named Amnesia
Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo
Turn A Gundam How they dealt with the past puts this ahead of many mecha titles.

I'm surprised no one mentioned it already. "Land of Adults" was a great episode imo. I'm too lazy to think of more, so that's my only vote.
