I'm not talking ecosystem or which I'd choose to build an actual project with, just on a pure language basis, C#'s typing system is more flexible and less verbose than Java's, and unlike Java, C# actually treats functional programming as first class.

Java has certainly gotten better in both regards, but C# was really just a joy in comparison.
