Paranoia Agent is simply amazing. I have finished watching it and I can safely say it is my favorite creation from the late Satoshi Kon.

Glad you enjoyed it! It's definitely one of his best works. Have you watched Paprika or Perfect Blue yet?

Of course! Incidentally, I could not help but be reminded of both of them as I watched Paranoia Agent: the bulk of the show oftentimes felt like a wackier and/or lighter-hearted Paprika, but the finale was totally Paprika, right down to the apocalyptic setting and metaphorical black goo.

 

I also saw Millenium Actress and Tokyo Godfathers. If I were to rank them all, I would put Paranoia Agent first, followed closely by Tokyo Godfathers and then Perfect Blue. Millenium Actress and Paprika were not bad, but I did not find the former all that compelling and the latter's setting and cast felt constrained by the feature-length format and as such did not make as much of an impression on me as Paranoia Agent's.

I am three episodes into Pluto on Netflix, and damn it is knocking me out. Sci-fi at its finest IMO. Only qualm I have is that some of the english VA is a bit lacking, but easily overlooked.

Gonna revive the thread a bit to bookmark some of the recommendations here to my anilist & throw in a few that I really liked:

Samurai Champloo- Honest to God, I think I like this one a bit more than Cowboy Bebop. Same author, and SC is a tad more light hearted

Mob Psycho 100- pretty good shounen that subverts some of the tropes found in other shounen anime, alongside having some pretty good lessons to teach.

Hinamatsuri- this show is fucking stupid, but pretty funny ngl. It's short too and the manga is great to read right after.
