| Listing thread, probably will closed/removed soon. Also, I don't think there is a universal best beginner list, though it would be easy to make one about the worsts. It's best approached case-by-case based on the individual looking for an entry. |

| The first 10 anime off MAL most popular. Scratch that. Basically any 10 anime off of MAL top 100. |

| why is ad filled almost entirely list threads death note, bebop, or psycho pass, idk |

| https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1523232 I think this challenge is a good way to get a breadth of anime under your belt, understand the medium, and figure out what kinds of anime you tend to like. Recommending people popular shit and possibly turning them away by making them think it's just about little boys fighting each other is not ideal. |

| anything mainstream is a safe choice tbh, as someone else said before, it will be easier to make a list of what to not watch as a beginner. |

BlackFlagPirate said: I'll rephrase, everything the franchise has to offer is straightforward. It should be fine for beginners to enjoy quite easily.Raging_Berserker said: it's not just about the story.

hverfa said: why is ad filled almost entirely list threads Maybe instead of listing, we can discuss the qualities that make an anime suitable for beginners. But something tells me there are none, if we’re recommending everything from Fullmetal Alchemist to Yuri On Ice. |
| その目だれの目？ |
| It's better if one simply makes a recommendation personalized on the beginner's taste, or a list of what-not-to-watch like the others said. Once the beginner says they hate action, you can't recommend them all that battle shounen you were saving up to recommend. |
| Here's my list when I started out as a beginner:(in order) Bleach(I completed watching only the saving rukia's arc and then dropped it) Death note Promised neverland My hero academia Attack on titan Demon slayer Re zero Tokyo ghoul Seven deadly sins Mob psycho 100 |

| basically mainstream shonen and isekai. |
 |
| Start off with 10-13 ep length series, get a few of those under their belts and then tackle something much larger. I know people would tackle anime differently, as we all do it differently. But slapping a 37, or over 50 ep show on them right from the get go might be too much. It's best to go in small and let the interest build from there. |
| I would recommend these 10 anime to all the beginners: Cory in the House Toy Story Minecraft The Godfather Boku no Pico Hametsu no Mars Pupa Euphoria Corpse Party Yosuga no Sora |

IrrelevantGuy said: I would recommend these 10 anime to all the beginners: Cory in the House Toy Story Minecraft The Godfather Boku no Pico Hametsu no Mars Pupa Euphoria Corpse Party Yosuga no Sora this list is terrible, you didn't even put in Ratatouille which is probably one of the most underrated movies ever... |

Studio Ghibli was a great part of my childhood and the main reason why I got into anime so easily in first place. It helps that they make usually meaningful movies that you can rewatch when you're older and get a different, richer perspective on them. Going from that to most popular shounens would probably be a good idea. Personally, I mostly agree with the list in the original post. |

I apologize for my ignorance. I certainly will do more research while making any list from now on. |
DeskLamp said: IrrelevantGuy said: I apologize for my ignorance. I certainly will do more research while making any list from now on. You didn't even include my favorite anime, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Looks like I would have to make a top 100 list instead of a top 10 list |
Shrek isn't even an anime smh. It's a form of art that transcends all human mediums. It is beyond the comprehension of normal humans. |
BrainHacker said: IrrelevantGuy said: Shrek isn't even an anime smh. It's a form of art that transcends all human mediums. It is beyond the comprehension of normal humans. You are absolutely correct. I apologize for the disgraceful words that I've said. I deserved to be hanged. No worries at all. I forgive you for all your sins. |
