discussed this question with my same aged friend and we kept going through things and realizing they'd already been remade or being like "yeah it was great at the time but that time sure has passed"

Thanks to @NineSwords@ani.social for running the discord!
Old af, but, The Irresponsible Tyler
Slayers but Gourry isn't a complete moron? (Iirc that was more Anime only, and LN he was smarter ). I'd even like an expansion of the verse like Lost Universe.
Teknoman
Astro Boy
Speed Racer
Bubblegum Crisis
Full metal alchemist... fma was beautifully done till they ran out of material and had* to "improvise"
FMAB has a rushed, strangely flanderized start and then becomes the masterpiece it is.
Also, the ending felt like they ran out of money
I want one single well executed anime
*because of the profit, of course
Akame ga Kill is a great manga that got an ok anime up until the end, where White Fox decided to make an original ending since they weren't interested in doing another season.
I want to watch more Elfenlied, but I doubt it's gonna happen. Maybe I should just read the Manga.
My answer to this used to be Panty + Stocking, but they have a new season coming out on my birthday!
I guess now my pick is 009-1. I really love a good East vs West rivalry, and having a femme James Bond doing espionage in a world where the Soviets never collapsed really hit a lot of notes. I gets pretty weird towards the end, and I wish they had another season to go even weirder.

07 ghost. An interesting anime with a fully fleshed out Manga.

It has a fantastic Gregorian esc future world aesthetic with grim reapers. One main original one that serves the role of the main antagonist character. And 7 others that oppose him known as the 7 ghosts that mainly serve as side characters.
-
has a really solid soundtrack that I think fits it's anime well
-
Has a really enjoyable side character / mentor for the MC character with a Jiriya each love for women.
I'd like to see Pumpkin Scissors and Zipang completed up to the ends of their respective manga (although Zipang was controversial enough that it might be really difficult to get it made). Likewise, Kamisama no Inai Nichiyoubi up to the end of the light novel series. And, just as an extra, it would be nice to see the last arc or two of Ghost Hunt make it to anime, although that would have to be an OAV as I'm pretty sure it would make six episodes max.
How about none?
If I wanted to see soulless retreads of older franchises whose time and relevance has passed, then I'd watch Hollywood shit.
UY 2022, Ranma 1/2 2024, I'm looking at you.
