As far as I can say, Haruhi is not that bad, its actually a light fun story and introduce animes archetype, like slice of life, high school theme, that protagonist which his seat near the window, the moe girl, the megane-silent girl, that large eye, and the list go on. But KyoAni fcked the series with the endless 8. You know that adaptation based on LN is increasing since Haruhi aired right?Do u rlly want ppl to watch the endless eight? Haruhi is one probably best watched earlier on yeah. Honestly it's a relatively average anime compared to other SoL, so the sooner someone watches it the better it will seem. The movie however is still amazing! |

| Dragon Ball Z |

| off the top of my head, Joshiraku. Most of the jokes assume you are a Japanese person living in Japan. |
| Daughters of Mnemosyne. Because, torture porn. |
 |
| Texhnolyze, for sure. |
idk why I was here but I'm prob back to playing Dragon's Dogma 2 again when you read this |
| This is interesting, I would actually suggest Mushishi and Monster as some of the first things to watch. Depends on the person though. Mushishi is something I could even get my mother to watch (she mostly watches nature documentaries and BBC crime mysteries). Monster is for anyone who can enjoy a good mystery. These don't rain heavy on you with the anime tropes, perfect for getting people slowly used to anime by not throwing the most obscene ones at them first. |
| If you generalize, you're wrong. |
| Inazuma Eleven. |
 |
| My best rec is boku no pico.nothing else. |
| [/b] |
| The Fate franchise in general (read da gawddamn vn). High School DxD. Log Horizon. Overlord. Mediocre shit. It'll be easier to ask what I'd actually recommend to newcomers :/ |

| Welcome to the NHK |
| Do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior God Usopp?? |
| too many to list, mainstream one always the one most savest one to suggest to newbies even it's considered bad by comunity. they are mainstream because reasons. |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| Any anime that focus on Japanese culture and comedies.. |
Reality is the lifeblood that makes a work pulse with energy. Reality itself is entertainment  |
| Lucky☆Star for very obvious reason. It require an extensive knowledge of older anime to get the references. Same goes with other works of the smae type like Haiyore! Nyaaruko-san. |

Nagirah said: Gooseman347 said: Boku no Pico. What do you mean, Boku no Pico is the first thing I recommend to new anime watchers. They all hate me now. Why isn't this joke dead? ouriel said: You guys and gals care to elaborate why you wouldn't recommend some of the better shows that the anime medium has to offer? Many of you said you wouldn't recommend Monster, Texhnolyze, SSY, LOTGH, Ergo Proxy, NGE, Ghost in the Shell and plethora of other shows, why is this? Do you think those who are entering the anime medium are dumb, unable to understand symbolism and metaphors, or that they're kids perhaps? Perhaps you shouldn't recommend shows that have Japanese references/folk stories to them, i.e. Mushishi and Mononoke, but to say you wouldn't recommend shows that have no or very little Japanese reference and don't recommend them is, I don't know, stupid or insulting maybe to their intelligence. I'd say I wouldn't recommend starting with ecchi and harem, because most of them are your counterpart of Western mediocre tv shows. And Gintama probably due to the sheer amount of references that it use to other anime shows. I think NGE is very good for newbies. For all of its mind-bending psychological stuff, it's a very fun show that lays out a lot of common cliches. It's not the most accessible thing, but it's attention-grabbing and will make someone want to explore more. |

Lol I also watched a mushishi episode with my mom. She liked a part where a baby starts crying opening a mouth bigger than his face. |

| Anything content-questionable by normies standards, I guess. Like Fate/Kaleid. Mostly Fate/Kaleid. And Fate/Kaleid. Also, for equally obvious reasons, huge franchises that requires a lot of commitment to finish and series that require a lot of medium knowledge. I don't get why so many people are listing dramas and dialogue-heavy stuff. Mushishi? Wtf? Folks, there's a lot of that in western mediums and even more on literature. As long as you're not some underage cancer, seeing that animated won't make a difference. I'd actually be glad if I was introduced to anime by something like Gunslinger Girl or Satoshi/Mamoru movies, this way I'd know from the start that there's more to this medium than the battle shounen popular stuff. |
| Mawaru Penguindrum only because it has a lot of stuff to take in right from the beginning and requires constant attention to keep track of what's going on. |
 |
| Depends how well i know that Person and his taste. I wouldn't recommend bad and average shows obviously. Also dialogue heavy or confusing shows. |
