I might do, but at the moment I'm hunting out stuff I can over analyse like Evangelion and Ghost in the Shell
Actually just had a really subjectively good time with a VN called Saya no Uta.
If you have any recommendations along those lines I'd appreciate it.

It's just a recommendation, chill. I didn't like SAO as well, but it's my opinion. The OP may very well like it. And VanQQisH already addressed the English dub thing, so there's nothing to be said here.
I'm just trying to liven up the thread a bit. I'm chill bro.
Oh, Saya no Uta. A good read that one, if a bit unique. Honestly, there's not a whole lot out there that's quite like it and that's why it's so special and so loved. Some recommendations outside the same twelve shows recommended here all the time, I can do for you.
In terms of anime:
Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko - Please analyze this for me. If you can figure out what the hell it's about please let me know.
.Hack//Sign - Awful animation and production values and terrible pacing but a really good look at child abuse and how they escape from a harsh reality.
Denpa Teki na Kanojo - Watch this. This show is excellent and outstanding in every way possible, an absolute must-watch in my opinion.
Eve no Jikan Gekijouban - See above.
Mardock Scramble - Also see above.
Fate/Zero - This is the Nasuverse done right. Try your best to track down the BD subs for this if you can, it's simply stunning both visually and storywise.
Kara no Kyoukai - More excellent Nasuverse stuff.
Golden Boy - No need to analyze this. It speaks for itself.
Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari - Tenchi Muyo spinoff that's set in another world as the title implies. Yeah, this is a harem but it's great when a harem lead is not afraid of his own cock, he just has better things to do. Kinda gotta watch it to understand.
Mouretsu Kaizoku - Also known as Bodacious Space Pirates. Don't expect One Piece, it's a show about strong and cute female characters and politics and insurance fraud. And a whole lot of Space Ship porn on the side. The soundtrack is also absolutely lovely.
Nazo no Kanojo X - It's honestly as weird as it sounds but it's a lovely story that's one of my all time favorites.
Shiki - Slow starter but an excellent vampire horror story set in modern Japan.
The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya - Yeah, it sucks that the TV show has such an awful fanbase and the Endless Eight sucked too but this movie is an objective masterpiece. And I do not use that term lightly. Make Sure you watch at least episode 1-5 in chronological order, Bamboo Leaf Rhapsody and at least the first two and last episode of Endless Eight for maximum effect. This is a movie that actually managed to turn 5 minutes of deep introspection into one of the most tense and watchable scenes of all time.
Tasogare Otome X Amnesia - This is a pretty cool and interesting specimen. It's more or less a horror/romance story for girls but is extremely enjoyable nonetheless.

This post is getting a bit long and there's plenty there I think is worth a good watch that few people seem to know about. Feel free to PM me anytime regarding this kinda stuff. I love to share.

Calling someone a "Buyfag" doesn't really give off a mood of playfulness or of being chill.
It's actually a joke from another website. We pretty much confirmed each other as being able to get the joke in our first few posts to each other. Nothing insulting about the term 'buyfag' because I am one. It's honestly more insulting that he used the word 'otaku' to refer to me.
