 It's hard to win an argument against smart people, but impossible to win an argument against dumb ones. |
| It depends on the person but it's usually between aot or death note |
 |
| Depends on what they like. I got my husband to watch FMA:B as his first real anime experience. He liked it well enough. |
 |
| I would go with Attack on Titan, but I think HxH is a good option too. |
| I sometimes forget to finish my sentences. |
| I recommend AOT to watch after watching some animes, cuz if after watching AOT maybe he or she may or may not like other anime that much. So I recommend to a beginner to start by Parasyte-The Maxim, sometimes people don't want to watch anime cuz it's series and they want movies, then I would recommend Your Name and The Silent Voice. ⪧ I recommend good anime series to be watched later. |

 ◽◽◽ ᓚᘏᗢ ◽◽◽ Having lived through trauma and mind-fucking, I'm accustomed to it now. |
| Death note because I've seen a lot of people get into anime through it |
 |
| Cowboy Bebop is the clear winner here, it's a great introduction to anime, one that just about anyone can enjoy. |
| If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that. |
| death note is beginner friendly. ANYONE can watch it. |
 |
| Death Note was my first real anime experience before diving into more titles. |
 |
| I would say Attack on Titan, that anime is perfect for a beginner |
 |
| I, myself started watching anime after death note. So i recommend it. But it certainly depends upon the person. |
 |
| Out of those, I'd say Death Note and FMAB |
 |
| Either Death Note or FMAB is the best anime for beginners. |

| I think a beginner should start from Fairy tail or naruto. |
| "When they're alive, you can enjoy watching them struggle. When they're dead, you can enjoy tearing out their guts. Tales are things you get to enjoy twice." |
| I think MHA would be the best show because it has good animation and easy to Understand story |
| Хайде, хайде, хайде, това е първата зона, брато, първа зона, първа зона, добре, добре, добре, това става тук горе, отива тук горе, само спокойно, само спокойно... Ха, отдясно е, навсякъде отдясно отдясно къде е дясното ти о да добре добре добре тихо мълчаливо не успях да се съсредоточа върху това ЕХ ТЪПАК КОГАТО СИ БАВНО БАВНО ... ой е путката на моето момиче прасе куче, аз Чувствам се добре, о, мамо, *шамар*, какво е това госпожице татко- |
_aLiez_ said: I think a beginner should start from Fairy tail or naruto. Absolutely not. They are long and can become a chore to watch as well as misrepresent the medium. Rather stick to something shorter and let them introduce themselves to longer shows. |
| def oreimo would be the best anime for a beginner |
 |
| Other One punch man is best anime for beginners |
 |
| I'd say Attack or Titan Outside of these options, BNHA is one I often recommend to new watcher |
 |
| At least Death Note and FMAB are great choices. Death note was the second anime I watched (first I finished) and FMAB was maybe... 5th? And I'm still here. |
 |
| i think aot would be a little much for someone’s first ever anime, plus it hasn’t been adapted to the end yet. i would always recommend death note as a starting anime, it was the second one i ever watched too :’)) |
| For the most part, Cowboy Bebop or A Silent Voice. Those two shows nearly fill up every genre possible so if they wouldn't like either of the two, I'd give up hope. |
   Has a 8.60 mean score Akasaka > Other Mangakas  |

You recommend Parasyte as people's first anime? That's quite a bold move. |
| Wait, I've seen none of these anime up to now. Did I miss something? 😳 |
| Don't mind me, just passing by... |
| Either AOT or FMAB, death note is a close second. |
 just wanna feel wanted by someone other than the police 😫 |
| Other Depend for the person you want to recommended. Yes in your poll is great for teenager and adult male, but how about female or kids who want to watch anime? I think the "beginner" means is anime for anyone across genders and age. So what the best for it? Himouto! Umaru-chan is the answer. It's work for me, my family and my friends like that anime and some of them starting to watch other anime that you have polled about. |
  What Does Pot of Greed do?  |
| AoT is a double edged sword. In 1 way it is a great intro, but in the other way... it will set the quality bar so effing high that future experiences are affected and ruined by AoT. |
| When will Black Clover release new anime?! It has been 3 years already since March 2021... I don't know who quotes me and then deletes the comment, but know that you make my day. |
| Since Pokémon is the most popular franchise in the world there's an above-average chance that they already like the Pokémon series, so I'd say Pokémon Indigo League would be a safe bet for most people? Not sure, but statistically, aren't there nearly as many Pokémon fans as there are non-Pokémon fans? (The series I mean. Not specifically the anime) Don't quote me on that since I'm terrible with statistics and could be completely wrong, lol If they don't like Pokémon, I'd say maybe Nichijou? Not too hard to understand if you don't know much about Japanese culture, not too offensive or "edgy", just good fun. If they do like "edgy", offensive or hyper-violent stuff, I'd definitely say JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. |
My greatest contribution to this website:  |
| I'd actually say Saiki K. Weird choice, I know, but hear me out. Saiki does a great job of parodying so many common anime tropes, and yet is still enjoyable to someone who doesn't get those jokes. So then the watcher is familiarized with the common tropes AND gets quality entertainment! It was the first one I watched, and I think it's a great gateway show.

  "Truth is always a cruel thing." |
| My list currently has 573 competed or in progress, yet I've watched only one of the five options listed in this poll. What does that say about me as an anime fan? |
A møøse once bit my sister... |
| I'd say Death Note, cuz it was my first anime. |
 |
| Mmmm... I going to give you non-answer in that if you are asking what anime YOU should watch, then you already have your answers. However, if you are thinking about introducing anime to SOMEONE ELSE, say friend, sibling, lover, etc. and you haven't watched much anime yourself, I would suggest watching either one of your favorites so far, or the next anime on your watchlist together. That way you can share the experience and if neither of you has seen it before, even better. That's how me, my brother, and my cousin all got into anime, together. We just kept recommending random shows to each other that we'd found and watched alone and then we would watch some other anime together. After all watching anime, much like watching movies and live-action TV shows, might be even easier to get into if you have company to watch with and share the experience. So don't get stuck on choosing the perfect introductory anime, but rather just pick some you enjoyed so you can both share the experience and have fun together. If you are more experienced with anime, you will know what to introduce without needing to ask others. |
| Death Note is perhaps the best. Of course, everyone's taste is different, but you are almost guaranteed to like at least a few things about Death Note, no matter what your preferences are. Besides that, there are Koe no Katachi, Kimi no Na wa, and other good mainstream stuff. |
