There's A Distinct Bias Towards The Number One In These Questions.
I saw that hamsterwoman had done this television meme and thought it looked like fun!

The different arcs might count as seasons? Like the Yotsuba arc, or the Mello and Near arc? Not sure where the dividing line would be, but I would say the early episodes of Death Note were the strongest.
I tried the meme for myself, so here are my answers if you are curious; sorry in advance for the multiple comments to fit everything:
1. She-ra and the Princesses of Power
2. Invader Zim
3. Princess Tutu
4. Dungeon Meshi (Delicious in Dungeon)
5. Gankutsuou
1) Who’s your favourite character in 2 (Invader Zim)?
Zim, or as I like to call him: my favorite bug of mass destruction. Chaos incarnate, objectively horrible and probably irredeemable, but surprisingly sympathetic in his hopeless quest for recognition. This tiny unstoppable alien is just great fun to watch.
2) Who’s your least favourite character in 1 (She-ra)?I love most of the main cast, and even those I find a little annoying like Seahawk and Swift Wind have some great moments, so one of the very minor characters…? The main ( ... )

A combination of internet memes (notably ‘Real men watch Princess Tutu!’ and ‘Guitar ninjas’) and JesuOtaku’s high praise of the show piqued my interest. I was skeptical at the title, but Princess Tutu has a reputation, and the fact that I couldn’t seem to find a single negative critic of it on the internet was truly impressive. I thought it must be worth checking out, at the very least, but I had no idea that ballet and fairy tales were such a central element; the plot might as well have been written for me, and the central characters are all wonderful. It remains my favorite anime of all time.
9) Who’s your favourite actor in 4 (Dungeon Meshi)?It’s an anime, so I’ll go with voice actors? Obviously they all do an amazing job, but Laios’ in particular stand out, both in the original Japanese and English dubs: he has such a wide range from reliable party leader to overenthusiastic dork, not to mention the moments he mimics animals or monsters. Kudos to Kentarō Kumagai and Damien ( ... )

"You are worth more than what you can give other people. You deserve love, too." - Mara. One of my favorite quotes, a very important message to give in a show mostly aimed at little girls, and something I really needed to hear.
15) Would a 3 (Princess Tutu)/4 (Dungeon Meshi) crossover work?
Both of them have strong fairytale vibes, so yes, absolutely! Any combination of the two would be fascinating, whether it’s the characters of both universes crossing paths, or putting either cast in the opposite setting. I would love to read either option!
Marcille in particular would be an invaluable ally for Ahiru in her quest to save Mytho: not only is Marcille a hopeless romantic, but she would be determined to find out how the magic works; Drosselmeyer would see her as a great target addition to the story, too! Chilchuck would accidentally adopt half of the Princess Tutu cast and get worried sick about them the more he realizes how messed up things really are, especially for Rue. Laios and Senshi ( ... )

I'd definitely agree with you on that!

The best sort of character!
I am always weak to aloof characters having an emotional breakdown.
This is also pretty great. Your taste is consistently impeccable.
Oh, I never finished watching Princess Tutu, even though I enjoyed it a lot! Unfortunately I was only able to obtain a Region 1 DVD, which meant I could only watch it on my computer, and my current laptop doesn't have a disc drive. I just checked, and it looks like I might be able to stream it on Prime Video, though! Dub-only, alas, but I'll give it a try.
I interpreted 13 as 'how would you kill off your favourite character as a writer?'; it hadn't occurred to me to consider how I would personally murder Jeff Winger! I'd, uh, put a mirror at the bottom of a cliff and hope he fell off while trying to admire himself.
