Natsume Yuujinchou is amazing.
I'm going to make this as easy as I possibly can...
As an all-around recommendation I -love-
Toshokan Sensou, better known as Library War.

The physical media distribution rights have only just been acquired by Discotek Media but as an anime it has er about 1 cour (12 episodes) + 1 BD special and 1 movie. It is originally a light novel but the anime, special and movie pretty much covers all of it.
Summary: Japan has experienced a time where there is heavy censoring of media (books, literature, tv etc) similar to that in Fahrenheit 451 (it actually gets featured in one of the episodes). Two forces are at play, the Japanese government's sponsored force that heavily regulates the media and the Librarian Task Force who protect libraries and works from being lost. With guns.
So you get librarians with guns. Librarians with guns protecting their libraries from forces wanting to raid libraries.
It's an action rom-com and I love it. 11/10 always recommend.
FOR THOSE WHO LIKE MAHOU SHOUJO AKA THAT MAGICAL GIRL STUFF
Nanoha. I prefer the second season As but Nanoha as a series is a wonderful wonderful series barring StrikerS which does not exist.
The below image is taken from Nanoha the Movie 1st which is a re-telling of the first season.

Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Girl Nanoha better known as Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha is essentially a girl finds a magician from out of the earth world who is in danger and needs help. She finds it in herself the magical power to help and she does so. While befriending people by blasting them in their face.
Anime OPs and EDs of the series are usually sung by the titular main characters' seiyuu. Nanoha's Tamura Yukari and Fate Testarossa's Mizuki Nana.
... might be hard to find legally. Can import the movies, i know for a fact the 2nd movie has ENG subs xD
Dark/Horror/Body horror/psychological series YOU SAY YOU WANT?
Parasyte -the maxim- is a recent anime based off of an older manga series.
Summary: Over night, a series of alien life forms invade the earth. These parasitic life forms fuse with the brain and convert their hosts into their own bodies, allowing the parasyte's full control to manipulate the bodies into whatever they wish. In order to "live" with being in control of whole bodies, these parasites must then eat, usually things as big as their new host bodies. Most of these parasites have now taken over humans. One boy finds himself with his own....
Should still be on Crunchyroll
SPORTS ANIME~!
I'm a big sports anime nut. Prince of Tennis? I was into it. Slam Dunk? Hell yeah. Go Eyeshield 21. Go Inazuma Eleven. Yep I watch KuroBasuke too. However, there's a recent series I've really dug and it's about VOLLEYBALL.
Haikyuu!! is about a very short volleyball player who dreams of being like a former nationals champion school's ace dubbed the "Small Giant" who was short as well but was able to score over other towering teams' defenders. He joins the school to find its volleyball club is not doing well but with new talent and new drive, the club hopes to soar once more.
