How to Convince My Friend that HXH is Good

I'm not sure if this is the right spot, if it isn't, sorry.

I have this friend who absolutely loves action anime. Her all time favorite anime is AoT and she also loves FMAB, Akame ga Kill, Guilty Crown and Sword Art Online. She has also kept a close eye on Naruto but hasn't really watched it, just obsessed over it. (I really don't get how that works.)

Anyways, she is one of those really stubborn annoying people who sees an art style they don't like and completely disregards the entire TV show. Honestly, I thought HXH would be perfect for her, considering the genre she likes. I tried to convince her, but she doesn't even give it a chance. She has even read the top-rated review on MAL of HXH and has still decided she has no interest in it...Goodness gracious!

I've tried to make her watch it so many times that she gets really mad at me when I bring it up and it makes everything awkward. I just don't know how to convince her.

How about you don't. Let close minded people be close minded, there's no way to force someone, just casually watch good episodes in front of her if you have to.

If the show doesn't interest her, then why force her to watch it?

She is not missing anything imo.

Lol. Does that mean she watches AMVs and collect fan art or something?

That has so many spoilers though!

She doesn't know what JoJo is.

I just feel like she's missing out and it bothers me because I know she'd like it!

@AttackOnTetris
I will try showing her the similarities, thanks.

She looks up clips on YouTube and watches them over and over again and then she just sees a lot of tumblr posts.
And the thing is, I think it will interest her if I can just spark an interest in her with another part of the anime because the first few episodes aren't too exciting.
