Are there any animes or TV shows you can’t stop recommending?
Deep Space 9; Adventure Time, and Gravity Falls
Have you watched one piece? Already complete with one season of 24 episodes.
His and Her Circumstances (Kare Kano). Such a gently told manic love story.
Babylon 5
Yes many. Probably more than I will ever watch :P
If I did not recommend them yet I also can’t stop doing that.
I did too much math today…
Claymore: Old anime. From a manga. Women with gigantic swords , the Claymore, fight some sort of demons in a forsaken world. We follow Claire, the Claymore Number 47, the least powerful of them all. Every episode has some sort of a twist, with new information about the incredible rich world and lore, and the power and origin of the Claymore. Drawing is captivating, unique, gorgeous.
Way better than Berserker, in the sense, that everything make sense and is foreshadow in Claymore.
Higurashi no naku koro ni
Moe-Psycho galore only drip feeding you the real story.
Scavengers Reign. One of the best pieces of sci-fi I’ve ever seen. They managed to create a world that feels truly alien, and the environment has such complex cause/effect relationships. Highly recommend!
I’m always trying to get people watching Konosuba it’s just funny but yeah I liked it so much I read the novels and spinoff.

Same. In my case, it got me to read my first light novel.
Honestly, Cowboy Bebop. The universe it builds feels lived-in, and the animation style is incredibl, but the music is really the star.
Be aware, however, that while there are happy moments, it is an anime about bounty hunters, and there are very few happy endings. Beautiful endings, poetic endings, satisfying endings - but never happy.
Bang.
Little Witch Academia: a passion project and it shows, a witch school with a colorful cast of character and an even more colorful cast of villains, alternative name: lesbian hogwarts
Girls und panzer and its movie, while it does fall into the cute girls doing cute thing type of genre, GuP is one of the ones who really popularized it, its a series thats just plain old fun to watch how they fight their tank battles, especially the movie
Ben-to, another series thats just plain ol fun, people beat the snot out of each other for the privilege to buy price reduced food, animated by the people who went on to do jojo
that just be my top 3 to show everyone
Undone, it’s created by the same guy who made Bojack Horseman.
I think most people haven’t seen/heard of it because it’s an amazon streaming exclusive, but you can watch it (and most other things) for free here: https://hydrahd.com/
I second this. I started watching “Undone” randomly while scrolling through the catalog, and I’m so glad I did. Absolutely loved it! The art style is nice, and I think Rosa Salazar is a great actress (she gives me huge Aubrey Plaza vibes too, which is cool).
- Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
- Death Note
- The Apothecary Diaries
- Ranking of Kings
All of these animes have a fantastic story that even people who don’t regularly watch anime’s will love.
IMHO while brotherhood is obviously better, it’s even better if you watch the original Fullmetal Alchemist anime first
Because the ending to the original is so unsatisfactory?
More because IMHO both are incomplete, and they each cover areas that the other skipped over, the original because iirc it finished before the manga, and brotherhood because, at least it felt to me, like it glossed over some areas that the original covered already
Brotherhood intentionally skipped over a bit in the start, since people most likely had seen it. Not enough for me to recommend watching the entire older anime though. Maybe up to a certain rain moment.
Andor, best piece of SW since the 80s
Yeah like… Why did it take that long to make the content andor has, it’s cray
Steins;Gate, can’t believe I haven’t seen anyone mention it yet. It’s good, but do watch at least halfway before you judge it.
This one happened during a period when moe was more brain-dead than cute, and the sister character who is supposed to be his motivation for everything just ruins the whole show for me she acts so stupid.
Yeah this one takes several episodes to set the hook and understand some behaviors. But once it does it’s binge worthy
