Well I tend to find alot of free series on Funimation and Hulu. When those dont suffice I use GoGo anime though that site is shall we say questionable.
If you need some direction on what shows you may enjoy, check out the internet review site Animerica. I find their cover to covers to be entertaining and informative enough on shows that I havent seen to decide if they will be my thing, though I dont agree with them on all shows.
One would be a single series anime called Now and then, Here and there. Its a great coming of age story about a young man from our world thrust into a strange steam punkish post apocalyptic land with forced training of children into child soldiers for a mad mans army. It deals with some heavy subjects and might make one shed a few tears before it is over.

Sounds awesome how long is it like 1 hour or so those are the ones i love longer the more story the better
Everything is free on the Interwebz if you know where to look. I have no idea if everything in this list is available on legit free sites or not though since I own a good portion of it and am too lazy to see if it's all on Hulu.

Samurai Shodown - It was on YouTube at one point.
Final Fantasy Legend of the Crystals - movie. It's on YouTube.
What? No recommendations for Cowboy Bebop and Full Metal Alchemist? For shame!
But yeah, regarding Full Metal Alchemist - You should know (or maybe you do?) that there are two series with the same name. The one mentioned and FMA: Brotherhood. While the first series was created at the same time as the manga, it finally got to close to it and had to create a second season of fillers. However, now that the series is done Brotherhood is more "attuned" to the original source material.
And for the record, I do strongly recommend some Lupin the 3rd. "A Woman Named Fujiko Mine" can be seen both for mature viewers, as well as an introduction to the main characters.

Also, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex (both seasons), Samurai Champloo, Cowboy Bebop, Code MENT...
...and that's pretty much it, from my side, at least. Not a big fan of anime, though. And I feel like I downright hate it since Kill la Kill became a thing. Wanna find everything wrong with anime? Go check Kill la Kill. Simple.

i can not stress people enough, not many people heard of this gem.
I really like the ED song, Free. ♥
Guess I'll add Parappa the Rapper (If you can find anymore episodes past 6, I think) and Wild Knights Gulkeeva. I mean, they're worth it if you want it to be worth it. ^^;
You're Under Arrest! remains to this day as my favorite anime of all time. Creator also did Ah! My Goddess.
Nothing too outrageous. Just a slice of life anime revolving around two female cops and their relationships concerning their professional and personal lives. A nice blend of humor, feels and police action. A lot of detail has been put in the animation and artwork involving the city of Tokyo and automobiles set in the 90's too and it has aged quite well.
From what I have seen (the first 4 episodes), Fate/Stay Night is fascinating as a show.
Basically the world has wizards who summon people to help them fight rival wizards to get the Holy Grail.
Said people who are summoned tend to be either people who have unusual talents, or in many cases historical or mythological figures.
The protagonist summons King Arthur. And ends up falling in love with *cough* him.
And it's all sweet and awesome and the fights aren't as drawn out and silly as in some fighting-focused shows, and the soundtrack is pretty decent.
Beyond FSN, the next show I would recommend is Ouran High School Host Club which, on its surface is everything I hate in anime, yet it somehow is a guilty pleasure of mine, and I will watch the entire series in a marathon on a friday night through to saturday morning from time to time, as I have done before. It's... bizarre, and I love and hate it for being so.
Next show I'd recommend is Tsukihime. It's... Unusual. Basically, artist girl helps some manga artists save their home. She has a jellyfish fixation. The artwork as a whole is AMAZING.
After that I'd recommend Welcome to the N.H.K, simply because it's actually surprisingly cerebral despite the first few episodes seeming like it's a simple concept. It pretty much follows the life of a severely depressed and a little bit manic NEET (basically the kind of nerd who has given up on the outside world) as he gets dragged out of his safety net by someone who actually spoiler is just as bad as he is, and also explores Japanese nerd culture quite interestingly to someone like me who figured it'd be much the same as in the UK.
There is a show I vaguely remember being awesome, it was called Occult Academy or something. Basically a tech and camera wielding guy from the future is sent back in time to prevent a major cataclysm, seeking the help of a daughter of a magic academy in the past. Or something. I remember enjoying it mostly because it had an assertive female character who wasn't necessarily a tsundere archetype for a main character.
In a similar vein, Speedgrapher was decent, not least because its opening theme is "Girls on Film" but because it had a very much supernatural-psychological thriller theme going on, and the action in particular was well done, with characters looking dynamic and amazing, and the villains being kind of horrible and horrific and terrifying and in a way the main character is kind of not all good too and just watch it okay?
Then I'd round it all off with watching Dennou Coil. The show itself is kind of dull, the plot is weak in my opinion, but it's the most interesting depiction of augmented reality glasses in fiction i have ever seen, so from a "what is kind of possible at least in overall style with future tech" perspective it's fun, but from an entertainment perspective, eh, you can give it a miss I suppose.
You didn't state what types of anime you were looking for so people are just throwing names out all over the place. There are a bunch of anime genres some of which you may want to avoid. However the number one anime must see by your eyes only is clearly:
Boku No Pico
Okay I lied, don't watch that. Don't even type it into Google. Just forget about it and move on.
If you want some currently airing anime there's a few different types at the moment.
Sabagebu! - Comedy, one of the funniest anime's I've watched too be honest however may not be for everyone.
Zankyou no Terror - Psycho Thriller, a really good anime some of the scenes in it are amazingly done and it really keeps you on your seat.
I'm watching a few others however I doubt you would like them much. As for the more popular ones I am watching currently airing there is.
If you want to know of a full list of my favourite anime's that I'd suggest to you I'd kinda have to know what you like because it'd take me a while to list it all out and in catagories so it isn't too random looking name wise. I like something in most genres, the only real one I never got into that much is mecha and... Hentai. <_< Don't see a point in it.
Well i'm a huge freaking fan of Redline but i like action packed anime with a bit of romance here and there just something with a solid story and if would ne really helpfull if yall could place some links! ^_^
If you want something that will get you ostracised and considered a pervert if watching in public, I recommend Kiss X Sis, which perplexes me a lot.
It's basically your standard little sister fetish story, blah blah blah, half siblings blah blah blah hormones and shenanigans, but completely stripping it of everything that is actually porn and just leaving the basic plot of the story that people see time after time.
It's like if the "hot pizza guy meeting hot customer on a delivery" plot on a live action porn ust turned into a thirty episode series about a lady repeatedly ordering pizza, getting to know the delivery man well, but without any sexy shenanigans, just mild flirting if that.
It's strange and because of that it's worth a recommendation from me because seriously, what is this?
Here are some of my favorites. There are not many friends of mine who don't at least "LOVE" some of these choices.
Watch them. Judge for yourself.
Psycho Pass
Black Lagoon
Ninja Scroll
Gunsmith Cats (My personal favorite)
Gunsmith Cats (ガンスミス キャッツ Gansumisu Kyattsu?) is a Japanese seinen manga series written and illustrated by Kenichi Sonoda. It was published in Kodansha's Afternoon from 1991 to 1997 and was followed between 2004 and 2008 by a sequel series Gunsmith Cats Burst which included the same characters and situations.
The series describes the adventures of young women fighting crime in Chicago, Illinois.
There are a series of three videos.
The Protagonist of this anime is the Biggest Mary Sue/Gary Stu I have ever seen in anime, the writers don't know how a MMORPG work and they try to throw as much as Fanservice and Tentacle Grape as they can
All the Girls in this anime are complety Idiots who constantly need to get Rescued by their Boyfriend who is apparently an antisocial kid genius who builds a Harem and everyone Love him
POWERFRAME REVAMPS, NEW POWERS and BUG FIXES > Recycled Content and Events and even costumes at this point Introvert guy who use CO to make his characters playable and get experimental with Viable FF Theme builds!

well to be honest Kill la Kill is mostly Whimsical, it combines Action, Humor and Drama alright
and the Nudity is just a Running Joke/Gag (NUDISTO BEACH~!)
Besides it has "Fanservice" for everyone since Male characters also get Attention
I really Enjoyed that Anime and I was Surpised by it

Made in Japan. Based on Shirow's manga. Pretty sure it counts as anime.
And Shirow is great.
If CO had to be given some manga parts based on Shirow's graphic style I could even tolerate it.
But then, Shirow's way of drawing faces probably isn't 'cute' enough for modern anime fans.
i can not stress people enough, not many people heard of this gem.
"there nothing more fun then Punching faces LIKE NO BUSINESS!!!"
That was one of the greatest moments ever! XD

Definetly NOT WATCH Sword Art Online! I Disagree
The Protagonist of this anime is the Biggest Mary Sue/Gary Stu I have ever seen in anime, the writers don't know how a MMORPG work and they try to throw as much as Fanservice and Tentacle Grape as they can
All the Girls in this anime are complety Idiots who constantly need to get Rescued by their Boyfriend who is apparently an antisocial kid genius who builds a Harem and everyone Love him
Watch Log Horizon instead or .Hack// Series.
I also Suggest
It has no tentacle grape but has one clothing grape scene, which I found hilarious.
and the Nudity is just a Running Joke/Gag (NUDISTO BEACH~!)
Besides it has "Fanservice" for everyone since Male characters also get Attention
I really Enjoyed that Anime and I was Surpised by it
I say nochin about Kill la Kil but everyting started from here. o3o
