Anime To Watch

So I'll go first (in my own topic so NAH!)
I've recently watched quite a few anime but I'll narrow it down to the two that blew me away the most.
Number One...

Sword Art Online
Genres: Fantasy, action.
What it's about:
In a virtual world created by a genius but twisted scientist, Kirito (the guy with 2 swords in the first post) must get to the end of a 100-storey tower and defeat the final boss to save everyone who has been trapped in the game. The twist - if you die in the game you die in real life.
Why it's great:
This anime was incredible from start to finish. It studies the psychology of the people trapped and the romantic side wasn't cheesy or cliché. Lots of heart-wrenching moments (and tears), beautiful animation and plenty of action all round.
Number Two...
Arpeggio Of Blue Steel
Genres: Sci-fi, action.
What it's about:
Gunzō Chihaya and his submarine (L-401 with its humanoid avatar, Iona) face off against other vessels on the great open seas in a battle to take back the world from the invaders.
Why it's great:
What impressed me most with this is that the action wasn't mindless, the battles that take place are all quite tactical. The story is also really awesome and I found myself getting quite attached to several of the characters. On top of that the show certainly has a lot going for it visually, from the ship's (oh so hot) avatars to the beautiful animation and special effects.
