Actually right now its only one anime! Its "Revolutionary Girl Utena". The visuals are gorgeous, the premise of the anime is super interesting (A girl was saved by a prince when she was small and then decided to become like him while she waits for him to return by wearing male clothes and acting like a hero) and the whole story is super trippy in general.
Also it has many references to art and religion[1][2].
I'm at around the half point right now, but can definitely recommend!
