Dream (Level 20)

Well, technically consider this Fate/ Zero 2. Ufotable continued pumping the series full of plenty of steam in the events leading up to the finale of the 4th Holy Grail of this second half to the series with fleshing out provided on Kiritsugu's past and what drove crooked priest Kirei to go rogue. The excellent animation quality and fluid battle scenes from the first season are retained here.

A chapter of the Lupin III franchise that did quite a bit to stick out from the franchise's typical plot formula with much of the show's focus being on Fujiko's exploits this time around and a stylish animation style brought forth by some of the same talent that made Redline.

Follows in the footsteps of Black Lagoon and Baccano in creating a gritty and violent action anime title done right with enough depth provided on the exploits of Koko and her team of bodyguards involved in the dirty business of weapons dealing. My ranking also accounts for the second season, Jormungand: Perfect Order.
