Kiss the girl kill the game

Unfortunately this is a drama box drama so I've only seen it on dramafren. I just checked and it's not on Dailymotion.

It's a girl comes down from the mountain and goes to high school story. What made it stand out was that the ML is damaged and psycho.

The first thing that came to mind for me was Golden Time because I'm watching it right now, but I don't think I would recommend it to you, it's such a chore (read: boring!). Some of the more immediately mainstream ones have already been recommended, so if you don't mind some older titles, I'd suggest {Maison Ikkoku} and {Ai Yori Aoshi}.

I really liked Genshiken a lot. Its set in a college anime club, and is just about the members and their interactions. Also, I haven't finished it yet, but I've been enjoying Honey and Clover, which is a comedy-drama about students who go to an arts college in Tokyo.

{Nodame Cantabile} is about students at a music university. I really liked it, it's a good mix of drama and romance, and a heavy focus on classical music. I'd recommend trying it out.

Golden Time and this season's Kaze ga Tsuyoku Fuiteiru come to mind first!

There's also the popular Tatami Galaxy.

Honey and Clover. It has slice of life, romance and some drama. It is very emotional. But when it does comedy it tends to be a bit silly. It's kind of schizophrenic, but it's very good.

Moyashimon is a quirky comedy that is very funny.

Someone already mentioned Genshiken and it is very good as well. It starts out as mostly comedy but develops some nice romance as it goes on.

Then there is Hen Zemi which is an exercise in being weird and pervy for its own sake. It's actually pretty funny though.

Cool doji danshi

Hmmm...maybe Azumanga Daioh? Partially because it follows the same students through all the years of high school.

I'm also tempted to name Gakuen Utopia Manabi Straight as a potential candidate, because it's very directly and explicitly about the Japanese school experience itself, moreso than probably any other anime.

Other possibilities:

Too Many Losing Heroines, Hibike! Euphonium, K-ON, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya

Toradora?

I don't rlly have a real explanation to why I pick that show, but just something about it really speaks to me as the representation of the definitive "school" anime. Could be the drama, the typical culture fests you see in almost every school anime, not really sure myself but that's what I think of and it is the first show that comes to my mind when someone mentions the "school" genre

I’d nominate Hyouka. The whole premise is that even the most apathetic bum of a schoolboy can make his own fun, provided he gives enough of a damn to try.

It’s also a bit unique in how realistically textured it is. The school isn’t just a building with a place and a name, it’s situated in the course of a history that shaped and continues to shape it — and its students. Clubs are riven with interpersonal issues, petty politics, and logistical difficulties. It’s not a downer about it, though; it’s got arguably the best school festival in anime, and at the end of the day, there’s always the Classics Club to return home to.
