What is your favourite anime, and why?

I would have to say Fullmetal Alchemist. They have a great mix of pathos and humour, the story is complex and interesting, and they explore shades of grey (i.e. the 'bad' guys aren't just bad for the sake of it, and the 'good' guys sometimes do bad things).

Update:

Thanks to everyone for your answers. You've given me a nice list of anime shows to check out.

    Fullmetal alchemist also!

    I loved the anime!

    It was very....Diverse? compared to other animes I watched!

    I also liked it partially because of how good the dubbed voices sounded!

    Honestly I like the voices better in English!

    I also liked it because of the characters!

    Especially Alphonse Hughes!

    Hughes reminded me of Shigure from fruits basket.

    It was also funny!

    I also loved Edwards quirky shortness!

    His temper obviously matched his height!

    I loved the humor but the intensity of some parts were diverse from that and it was a good contrast to go from pee my pants funny to shut up serious moments.

    Did you cry when Hughes died? Because I did!

    I honestly hated the movie they did.

    It was like a stupid spin off episode

    Though It was a good way to end the series.

    hope I helped!

    I have multiple favorites Death note, wolf's rain, Princess Tutu, Special A, Ergo proxy. (those are the main favorites)

    Death Note because well the story line itself is good and they have great characters. It kinda makes me think and whats not to like about it?

    Wolf's Rain also love the story and I started watching it because it had wolves and couldn't stop. It made me cry and I like when shows make me cry. (weird i know, death note made me cry to cuz light died) I love the characters and I love Darcia he wasn't a villain at first just to be one like u said for FMA. But anyway it was good.

    Princess Tutu great imagination with this one i thought it was very beautiful anime and i love classical music like they had in it. Also made me cry. I was a little disappointed but i still just love it.

    Special A It was really good I love the romance/comedy they make me laugh, cry (this one out of joy) and of course laugh.

    Ergo Proxy It was a dark anime but I love it! It confused me a little and I REALLY wish they did more but oh well I guess it wasn't to bad of an ending.

    All in all I don't really know how to say how much I love the show or really why but thats all i can give ya ;)

    I have two.

    Shugo Chara: There hasn't been an anime like it before, and its really cute in a weird way.

    Vampire Knight: I probably favor this over SHugo Chara. Its really cute and sad, and Vampires are just really awesome. I really liked the ZeroxYukixKaname thing they had going on, and I felt really bad for Zero at the end of Season Two. Its really twisty-full.

    Hello ,

    Ghost in the Shell because it well done and well written with fully realized characters . The animation is competently rendered . The story-line contains philosophical elements about cyberization and what does it mean to be human and just what is reality when your cyber-brain can be hacked with false memories implanted , et.al.

    =^,,^=

    Vampire Knight. First of all vampires are awesome. The love triangle b/t Kaname, yuki, and Zero is intense. The story line also has really good plot twist.

    Cardcaptor Sakura. :)

    It has a good amount of episodes with 2 movies, the second movie ends the series with a good ending. Great comedy, romance, action, fantasy, cute characters and I love the art!

    Naruto because it is ongoing (it makes me sad when anime ends) and the plot is interesting. Plus the characters are complex.

    Black Cat is also an anime, its even dubbed ;}
