This is a list of anime with super high-quality English dubs.
Some of these dubs are even better than their native Japanese counterparts due to their focus on accents and the emotional delivery of lines.
Context is also essential as many of these animes you'll be seeing on this list don't exclusively take place in Japan, so the mannerisms and speech will make more sense in English.
An excellent example of that is Baccano and Black Lagoon.

These animes are the exception to the rule of "English Dub = Bad."
Some of them are also arguably better, but that's a debate for another forum ;)

Reasoning can be found below in the anime boxes.

Recommended Order (for those new to the franchise):

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion [Season 1] (original timeline)
Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion [Season 2] (original timeline)

And if you're craving for more...

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Re;surrection (alternate timeline)
Code Geass: Akito the Exiled Movies (original timeline; between Seasons 1 & 2)


Chronological Order (not recommended for those new to the franchise):

ORIGINAL TIMELINE

Code Geass: Akito the Exiled Movies
Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2 [Season 2]

ALTERNATE TIMELINE

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion III - Glorification
Code Geass: Lelouch of the Re;surrection

It includes all kinds of sci-fi anime subgenres from dystopian, utopian, aliens, space operas, comedy, dark and psychological etc. A variety of selection to explore the world of my favourite genre which is sci-fi. It includes extremely serious nerve wrecking stories to absolutely light hearted fun ones.

Newly released & mentionable titles aired in 2012. Sequels, spin-offs, OVAs, and related movies are not included.

From memory as an avid watcher. Aired either in ABS-CBN, HeroTV, or TV5. Some of these Tagalog Dubbed animes/OVAs may be lost media.

Mecha that takes place in modern/modern-ish/near-future times relative to their release date.

Anime that tell a single story over the course of multiple movies. Only the 1st installment of each series is included. Recaps are not included.
