Never watched bleach before.
Death Note has been really good so far.

I don't trust any list that says Moribito is better than Cowboy Bebop.

Wow no one has said any of these 10/10 animes yet

Elfen Lied
Spice and wolf
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (deemed the most epic anime ever, it is)

These are all short series anime. Elfen Lied is only 13 episodes and is the goriest/beautifulest anime ive ever watch.
Spice and Wolf is a great plot focusing on economics, trade, and peddling rather than the typical staples of fantasy such as swords and magic. Doesnt sound good but trust me its amazing
And about Tengen... Just watch it.

What, no one mentions Cromartie High School?

Kyle (Napalmbrain) has mentioned most of my favorites, but I would add "Samurai Champloo" to the list, highly recommended.

There's also FLCL, Witchblade, Genocyber, and KARAS.

I love FLCL. Although its really hard to understand. First you have to understand that whatever you think might be going on... is wrong and you have to stop thinking.
