Fairy Tail has kinda a DBZ vibe, but the fights are over with in one or two episodes, not 45. (Funimation)

If you like suspense and psychological thriller, and don't mind subtitles, Kaiji is an excellent watch. It's about a man who cosigned a loan with a friend, from a bunch of loan sharks, and has to play increasingly deadly games to try to regain his life. It will take you for a ride. (Crunchyroll)

I really enjoyed Dr Stone. An apocalypse occurs, petrifying the entire world. Humanity starts to slowly awaken, and they try to rebuild the world while fighting against an opposing group trying to start a new world order. At least for season one. I haven't cought up recently cuz my depression has been kicking my ass. (Funimation)

That's all I got off the top of my head, and I hope it helps.

Edit: If you like Kaiji, it has two separate side stories.

Akagi is set in the 70s, I think, and is about a man who is apparently a savant at Mahjong, and ends up playing against a mob boss. wagering his blood against the bosses fortune. The show is really good at trying to explain the rules to the uninitiated without being condescending, and still keeping it suspenseful and engaging.

The other is Mr. Tonegawa's Middle Management Blues, more of a slice of life workplace comedy, centering around one of the antagonists of Kaiji, and trying to manage his employees while pleasing his boss. I didn't finish this one, cuz I got the point about halfway through, but I had fun while it lasted.

And I just remembered Cells At Work, also subbed, but an excellent romp which I would call "edutainment," but don't let that dissuade you! It anthropomorphizes different cells of the human body, describing their functions in kinda a slice-of-life meets monster of the week format. The white blood cells are the knife-weilding defence force of the human body, cutting down Power Ranger monsters that never were. Again, don't get put off by the edutainment label, cuz the edu and the tainment both hit hard.

Campfire cooking in another world

Log Horizon is fantastic

Bubblegum Crisis The Guyver

I'm a little disappointed that Hajime No Ippo wasn't mentioned. It's from the early 2000s, plays in the late 80s and it's about boxing. The writing and how fleshed out the characters are is unexpectedly good for that kind of setup and it's one of my absolute favorites.

Two great comical animes are golden boy and great teacher onizuka but they have a lot of cliche anime perverted jokes I can see putting off a lot of people especially when they're not deep into anime.

Then there's goblin slayer but you might want to look up the controversy about the first episode before you go blindly into it.

Gankutsuou

If you want some 80s badassery, Hokuto no Ken.

Listen to the opening, "Ai wo Torimodose" and decide if it's to your liking or not.

Another, The Devil is a Part timer, Noragami, and Food Wars

• Code Geas is similar to death note, i think it's a more satisfying ending than death note.
• My hero academia is great super hero/fighting anime.
• One punch man is a masterful parody of the super hero genre
• seven deadly sins is good, with lots of interesting characters.
• Hetalia axis powers is an amusing take on European history as told by Japan with a comedy style.

My favorites are Steins;Gate, Steins;Gate 0, From the New World and Higurashi no Naku Koro ni. Both have excellent stories.

For what they are:

• Steins;Gate: Watch humans losting in time travels.
• Steins;Gate: AI with time travels...
• From the New World: A world of supermans and weak creatures.
• Higurashi no Naku Koro ni: Horror of Japan culture from old times.

No one mentioning Neon Genesis Evangelion, it’s only the greatest anime of all time.
