Dude you're like a ancient relic, it's rare to see someone that joined this site since 2004. Respect dude for still being around. Edit: my apology, you're actually a female. So ancient I don't know why I'm still alive hahahaha. You will only find two people who joined before me.... the site creator and one other person :P I can't say I'm around I stopped participating in this site and stopped being staff around 2009 or 2010 I think... I just use the list system cause I watch anime in my spare time. And I do not know which friend this was for. I doubt I am still even friends with them... |

| For a female? If she likes asian/hollywood drama, then i guess choosing somethin similiar drama genre one will be good. But probably better if u offer her unique series that can't be found apart in anime which will u suggest. That's will give a good impression for her. And if so, picking any genre isn't really matter~ it's demand on her own judgement and taste. Better u ask her opinion after it. Hmm.. if she is a typical who upholding her religion or standpoint, don't force her to liking anime. Some anime genres which contain too extreme genre--- too much contention; best choice to not suggest anything extreme idealist one in the first place. But if u feels your suggest really a good thing, and she still refusing to not watch, better to clarify bad issues and bad views of anime beforehand. |
We did this every day that summer. There wasn’t a day we missed.  "I love you, air conditioner." |
Robiiii said: Seven Deadly Sins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Def watch it if u like good artstyle, solid story & lots of action :> Wow! You piqued my interest since Art style is what I also look for ^_^ and yea will do watch it =D |
| Depends on what they like. Cowboy Bebop is overall probably the most reliable "gateway anime", due to how westernised it is, but different strokes for different folks. For one of my friends, Kill la Kill was their gateway anime, which surprised me because you would usually associate something like KLK as being too "anime" to act as a "gateway anime". |
iLoveYourKiss said: Well, i have a friend that sayed to me: Well anime suck, i hate it... Then i asked her if why she hate it soo much? She sayed me it was boring.. Later in that day, i recommended her to watch Boku dake ga Inai Machi / Erased .. She watched all 12 episodes in 1 day LOL and she really enjoy it! Now she's asking me for more animes, and more, and more! It's kinda personal too! I know she loves friendship and crying stuff soo Erased or Death Parade is just perfect. For violent/bloody fans i recommend Mirai Nikki or Sword Art Online or even Elfen Lied or Tokyo Ghoul.. Funny guys? Prison School.. Action guys? One Punch Man.. The guy that like sports? Air Gear or even Kuroko no Basket.. Did he/she want long episodes (200/300) ? Well, Gintama or Hunter x Hunter.. Mind blow? DEATH NOTE.. Sorry for interupt your post there '-' and my english are sucks too. But "sayed".. is kinda good choice of words Prison school ----> funny guys? ._. It's more precise to label it as fuckin' ecchies genre. Maybe "funny guys" are fitted in daily lives of highschool boys. :3 Erased is a good choice ftw, especially to bombard someone's feelings. |

| In America, anything that airs on Toonami is usually a reliable choice to introduce new viewers to the animated shows produced in Japan. They're specifically picked to appeal to Western fans who might not like any of the more niche titles. |
| It depends o n what my friends like/person likes. But most boys in my class, like action-shounen or smth, so AOT would do the trick. And girls in my class like romance/SOL smth, so I would recommend them Clannad? You can just straight-out ask what they want and then alter your advise to their preference. Or show them bits of anime. This really depends on how the person is ;P. |
| Tokyo Ghoul, for all its faults, work well with anime "beginners" in my experience. I'd imagine Your lie in April and Garden of words would work as well. |
 |
| Attack on Titan and Future Diary can be good starters. They're attention-grabbing, fast-paced, weird and original in their ideas and pretty deep. They can get messy though. WataMote is a great comedy to introduce someone to anime. Haibane Renmei and Tatami Galaxy are perhaps the best for outsiders. They're far away from anime cliches and are easily accessible for anyone who likes quality fiction. |

| I forced a friend of mine that absolutely loathes anime to watch Akira with me. And he enjoyed it quite a bit. However I can't say it will work for everyone as people seem kind of divided in between it and loving it. |
 |
| I got my husband hooked using Elfen Lied, but he's mature and could handle that. He bawled like a baby on that episode of Clannad After Story though. Sword Art Online and Seven Deadly Sins are probably the newest hot anime. |

| There's anime for hana yori dango (also has Korean drama version. for case she doesn't know the Japanese). There's also Nodame Cantabile and Ouran high school host club. |
