For me, hands down, is Monster. I don't feel all that original, so I'll copy-and-paste from my Top 10 list.
"Oh lordy, where to start. This anime. THIS ANIME. When I started Monster, I had this strange facination with it that I didn't love it, but refused to stop watching it. I thought that I should find it boring, but didn't for some reason. That reason came in a blonde haired, blue eyed, pretty boy package known as the embodiment of evil- I mean, hell on earth- I mean, Johan.
This one, unlike most of the others on the list, didn't have as strong of a cast as one would think. I mean, I love a lot of the characters, like Tenma, Johan, Dieter, etc. Some of them like Eva and Lunge, who I originally disliked, I found to be really interesting by the end. The only thing is that the story held its own and wasn't actually all that generic. It was an awesome story in all aspects, not just the cast. It seemed to have a bit of Death Note to it in that there was the blurred line of good and evil. On one hand, Tenma saved the life of a ten year old boy. On the other hand, that boy grew up to slaughter hundreds of people. It isn't quite as complex in that aspect as Death Note, but it more than makes up for it."
