From your list, I really enjoyed I'm in Love with the Villainess, Sacrificial Princess, Magical Revolution, and Buddy Daddies. Zom100, Overtake, and Yuri is My Job were on the decent tier. I didn't watch Pluto or Ooku, so can't comment on those. However, Helk was really the one show that I tried so hard to like, but it just couldn't fully get there. I really enjoyed the beginning few episodes, and even the whole flashback arc that a lot of people despised. But after the flashbacks were over, it seemed like they lost their way and tried to do too much and be too many different things. The whole reason the bad guys did everything didn't make any sense (who is farming or making food or providing services in this kingdom?) but I did appreciate the underlying positive message. Maybe now that they've set everything else up, a S2 would be more consistent. I'll still give it a chance if they make more.

For me, my favorite 10 shows this year are probably (in no particular order)

Heavenly Delusion

Tomo Chan is a Girl

Ruroni Kenshin

Apothecary Diary

The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses

Dark Gathering

100 girlfriends Who Really Love You

Undead Girl Murder Farce

Sacrificial Princess

Hell's Paradise

Frieren is still running, otherwise it'd be on here too. Undead Unluck was a serious contender too. That show is a lot of fun.

Lots of other excellent shows on your list, just got around to watching The Apothecary Diaries myself and it would have been a serious contender for a top 10 spot had I just had time to get to it in particular.
