Bang Brave Bangern! is the gayest, and probably the most fun anime I've ever seen. Even the year it came out I didn't see very many people talking about it, so shoutout to the Mother's Basement youtube channel for making me aware of its existence.
Golden Kamuy is also excellent, but a lot of people got (understandably) turned off by how bad the bears looked in the first couple of episodes. They were rendered in 3d and composited in really poorly. It was not great. And tbh while the rest of the show doesn't have anything that bad later on the animation never really becomes what I'd call "great". That said, if you want to watch a bunch of crazy dudes kill each other over some gold in Taisho-era Hokkaido this show is an incredible time.
Edit: The Elusive Samurai is also an absolutely amazing watch. You just have to be okay with a show where one moment they're making silly jokes and then 30 seconds later people are being beheaded.
Golden Kamuy's S3 is an absolutely banger watch.

I love seeing Hijikata in any show. Old Hijikata is just as badass as ever and I wished he lived that long.I was very amused seeing him and the other old guy he hangs out with, since I mostly knew them from Gintama!
The first season of Golden Kamuy was amazing but I took a break after the first episode or two of the second season and totally forgot the plot. It's pretty dense and has a lot of characters so it's easy to forget exactly what was going on last.
I gotta get back into it at some point
