Well, I'll be quite clear. All the shows I listed above set or raise the bar in some way, or did some game changing, or both. I really wasn't differentiating between the two. I really wasn't trying to be specific and didn't go into depth in my post because I didn't want to come across as a pretentious asshole. (to late, huh?) I just gave my list of best shows in contrast to the current crop of "best of decade" blogshit posts that have been cropping up. If you want me to be specific, and detailed, ask me which show/genre your curious about. I'll be happy to oblige, but not without you posting your list for me to critique in the same manner.

My opinion is the criteria. Shows I think other series should live up to. It's pretty subjective. I don't dispute that my entire list is subjective. Some people might hate the show Clannad or Higurashi for instance. But both shows to me, are the bar that others need to cross in their genres for them to excel.

Or we can just abandon trying to judge the objective quality of the piece, and try to find those series that were a subject to subsequent imitation - It's not enough to say "it's the best of its genre" - you need to say what are the reasons you consider it the best, for your list to have any merit.[/b] Not to mention leaving out the reasons for the movies is just lazy.

Oh, I am lazy. That is one thing I cannot deny. I ripped the movie list of my previous post on reddit.

But my anime list is all still subjective. It's all an opinion. There is no right or wrong. I never claimed that. That's perhaps where our wires got crossed. What I want is others opinions on the top shows/movies of the decade. What do you guys think the best shows of this decade are?

Scudworth:
I LOVE YURI !

On the note of Ghiblies,
surprisingly these are the only films made in the last decade.
My Neighbors the Yamadas*    
Spirited Away
The Cat Returns    
Howl's Moving Castle    
Tales from Earthsea*
Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea
*=i haven't watched it yet.
Of these spirited away is worthy of a top 10 place.
Personally the others were good but not outstanding. Having said that I've only watched a few non ghibli movies, so by default probably all the ghibli's i've watched would appear on my top 10 movies list. lol

+1 for the girl who leapt through time - very nice movie.

Drew:
Toradora deserves a spot at or near the top, IMO.

+1

Same goes for GTO. I've yet to see a comedy that rivals it in terms of hilarity or story.
