    Well, taste is subjective and all that but out of that list, I'd say these are fairly objectively successful and popular if you're willing to take that as a rough proxy for "good": Haikyuu, Yuru Camp, Summer Wars, Wolf Children, Girls und Panzer, K-On, Haruhi, and the Shinkai films

    I personally also quite like Hanasaku Iroha, Barakamon, Natsume Yuujinchou, Night is Short and Summer Time Rendering

    Kinda depends on what you're looking for, e.g. Haikyuu is very much a sports anime and does a lot with the tropes of that genre. If you just want to watch a single good thing that has a bearing on a locality in Japan and isn't a project in and of itself (cough Haruhi cough) or otherwise cult, I'd say just watch Wolf Children.

    This is really sad. KyoAni (Kyoto Animation) is, as said in other thread, one of the current best animation studios in the world. I grow up watching their animes and thinking how they're amazing compared to the majority of japanese studios.

    Some animes bought by them:

    - Full Metal Panic (many laughs, amazing characters and great animation)

    - Air (this is the first time that I did cry in a series of any kind)

    - Kanon (really good adaptation of this great Visual Novel)

    - Clannad (a really emotional series for me, even if the Visual Novel is better the anime still does a great service for this series)

    - Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu (this is the anime that made me fan of them, a unique approach of slice of life and overpowered beings that was great in its time)

    - Lucky Star (funny otakus done right)

    - K-On! (a good anime showing cute girls doing cute things)

    - Hyouka ("Sherlock Holmes goes to a japanese high school")

    - Nichijou (funny nonsense done right)

    - Sound Euphonium (I still remember that amazing scene at episode 11)

    - Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (a great surprise, this seems like a goof series on its premise however it is so heartwarming)

    - Violet Evergarden (this is available in Netflix and I recommend simply because the animation is amazing and the story is really emotional)

    I don't really care about the reasons of the suspect, there are better ways to claim copyright infringement, and even if it didn't, there is no reason to take human lives.
