If you want to find good animé, why are you asking people to list ones that are "not so favourite"?

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

Well your not so favorites may turn out to be my favorites. Any anime will do.

[Dreddz]

Trigun.
Akira.

[Renmiri]

Ghost in the Shell - Cyber futuristic cop action

Wolf's Rain - Fantasy, end of the world, beautiful music

Anything by Miasagi Miyazaki but Princess Mononoke is the best.

Inuyasha - high school girl and a half demon travel through ancient japan

Full Metal Alchemist - fantasy and Alchemy plus political intrigue

[Aemilius Blight]

Let's see:

Akira

Neon Genesis Evangelion

Cowboy Bebop

Elfen Lied

Azumanga Daioh

Martian Successor Nadesico

Those are the only anime that I can think of that are irrefutably good.

Serial Experiments Lain owns your face.

[Tasura]

Serial Experiments Lain owns your soul.

[Fonzie]

Bleach is all you need

[Wolf Kanno]

Irresponsible Captain Tylor. Funniest series ever made, and the best ending to a series I have ever seen.

Tenchi Muyo! Watch the OVA. The movies are wonderful as well. Avoid Tenchi in Tokyo cause it was made by people who hate children and puppies.

Rahxephon, It's like Eva for the first half of series and then evolves into it's own monster of a headcase.

Wolf's Rain. Cause it's beautiful.

Like Renmiri, anything by Hayao Miyazaki.

Gungrave, mafia shennanigans, betrayal, violence, drama, and ...zombies

Naruto, I know people don't care cause it's "mainstream" but find a fansub copy of the series (the fansub was kind enough not to translate Naruto's obnoxious catch phrase) It's a very deep an well written story about growing up, being accepted, honor, friendship and believing in your dreams. Even better, it's actually well written and doesn't feel too forced most of the time.

Robotech or Macross (depending on how much of a purist you are) The world is saved by a idol singer...

Night on the Galactic Railroad, a beautiful tale about growing up, life, death, and learning to let go.

Captain Herlock or Galaxy Express. Cause Leiji Matsumoto is a genius.

That was more than five but I have like thirty other series I could recommend like Sailor Moon, Ranma 1/2, Casshan the Robot Hunter, Vampire Hunter D, Robot Carnival, Kare Kano...

[Kenji Longaway]

Trigun.
Guyver.
Fushigi Yugi( Mysterious play ).
Project A-Ko.
Cowboy Beebop.

[black orb]

>>> Watch Gintama, Gintoki and friends will teach you how to be a better human being..

[The Summoner of Leviathan]

Depends what you are looking for.

-Kyou Kara Maou! is all around good. A nice balance of humour and drama.
-Fushigi Yuugi put me through an emotional roller coaster sometimes it felt as if the stuff was too soap opera-ish. Nonetheless a good fantasy series.
-xxxHOLiC it is nice with humour, seriousness and a bit of philosophy.
-Sailor Moon, more specifically the last season, Sailor Stars
-Tsubasa Chronicle
-Elfen Lied, if you like goriness go for it.
-The Vision of Escaflowne

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

Anything by Miasagi but Princess Mononoke is the best.

Miyazaki. Hayao Miyazaki.

And on that vein, Spirited Away is my other favorite of his works.
