My favorites are :
Ghost in the Shell : The movie is awesome and has some of the most complex philosophy I have in a mainstream film. I also like GitS innocence which is the sequel to GitS. Mamoru Oshii is the best.
Ghost in the shell stand alone complex : Simply love the visionary ideas of the creators.
Black lagoon : I know its not spiritual. But hey, I need a dose of mindless violence once in a while. It has some decent characterization as well. The dub is superior imo
Spice and Wolf : The ideal romance anime. English is the language to watch it in.
Mushishi : This is the most spiritual anime I have seen to date. It's episodic which means you can watch the episodes in any order.
Kino's journey : An episodic anime like mushishi. It has some thought provoking commentary on human society.
