Hmm. Recentish anime with box sets available. With quick summaries for those who might not have seen them.
Last Exile - a steampunkesque saga of a couple of courier-plane pilots trapped in the middle of a war, a church, and secrets beyond their imagination.
Durarara!! - teen gangs and a dash of urban fantasy in the underbelly of Ikebukuro
To Aru Kagaku no Railgun - The adventures of Misaka Mikoto, Level Five Esper, and her friends, in Academy City - a laboratory disguised as a city of schools.
Girls und Panzer - Cute girls doing cute things WITH TANKS. And a tournament arc.
High School Fleet - Cute girls doing cute things WITH BATTLESHIPS. (I often call it "Girls und Panzerschiffs".)
Musaigen no Phantom World - Light-hearted and fun schoolkids-vs-monsters with one of the more interesting premises for "why monsters now?" that I've yet to see.
Danmachi - Bell Cranel is a young beginner adventurer in the city of Orario, home to The Dungeon, where Adventurers blessed by the returned Gods go to fight monsters, win trophies, and entertain their divine patrons.
Kotetsujo no Kabaneri - Japan has been overrun by a zombie apocalypse, and its people have retreated to walled cities linked by armored trains. When one city falls, its survivors take to the rails in search of aid, a young man invents a powerful new weapon, and powerful nobles plot and scheme.
Tokyo Ravens features a young student suddenly dragged into the occult world of the Onmyouji - Japan's warrior-exorcists - by his cousin, who is believed to be the reincarnation of a powerful legendary wizard whose followers still lurk in the shadows today...
Coppelion - 20 years after a nuclear accident irradiates Tokyo, three schoolgirls are sent in to investigate signs of survivors still living in the ruins.
