Hot takes in comparing anime from the same genre.

Mine are:

Castlevania > Demon Slayer (Kimetsu No Yaiba)

Link Click > Monster

Some of mine: Gintama doesn't deserve to top the rankings the way it does.

Bocchi the Rock is great, but not top 30 on MAL and AL great (and since people keep comparing them, not better than K-On either, although I do think it's unfair to compare the two as they're not the same type of anime).

Weathering With You is better than Your Name.

Not quite ranking, but I don't get the hype about Mushoku Tensei. It's an above average Isekai, but that's about it.

About Mushoku Tensei, the differentiating factor is that there is some visibly higher degree of effort involved in making it. The difference in art and animation quality is immediately noticeable (they take no "shortcuts" unlike all others), not to mention its deep world-building and how it treats none of its characters as black-or-white. At its core it is still just an above average isekai, but more importantly it's a high-effort endeavor throughout.

... it still could do without constantly bringing up sexual degeneracy though
