Recent gold medal winner Alysa Liu is a huge anime fan, and she just proved it by listing her five favorite anime series of all time, which combines huge titles and some unexpected picks.

After winning Gold in the women's figure skating singles competition at the Winter Olympics this week, becoming the first Team USA member to do so since 2002, Liu was asked to share her best anime recommendations. "I'm not going to rank these in their exact places," she warned @overtimewbb (via X) before getting to her choices.
