Also if @SailorGoon is able to prove that Fat Mac is BLACK, then it will solidify why he deserves to place second in this tournament (second only to complete_idi0t)
Berserk(1997), Samurai Champloo and Afro Samurai are my go to recommendations for those who aren't particularly in love with it. Not full of the generic setting, overused character archetypes/tropes that you find in all the newer shit that turns people away.
And if you're not afraid of the more risqu stuff I'd say Prison School is worth the watch. I thought that shit was hilarious.
