I mean a fair chance, like a full season of something. I am ignorant to most of it, i've never seen a single episode of Pokemon, or played a game.

I do like a lot of violence, i've watched animated stuff before like HBO Spawn, The Maxx (MTV) and was a fan of Spider-man into the Spider-verse.

I don't want much for cute or romantic, maybe something action, violent, dark, or thriller.

I also like animated humor like South Park, so something with that line of more adult humor might work also.

Give me a few recs, I know a lot of you watch it, and whatever seems to be the majority decision after this sits for a while, I will check out and make a progressive thread as I experience it.

Thanks in advance CE.

I do have Amazon, Hulu, and Netflix, so anything available on those would be great. I'm not really opposed to purchasing a digital season of something either.

Full Metal Alchemist. I prefer Brotherhood, but the 2003 version is great too

Space Dandy, funny stuff. Great dub.

Can't go wrong with the classics either: Evangelion, Berserk(1997), Cowboy Bebop, Yu Yu Hakusho

Castlevania is decent so far. The first season is a really slow burn though, but its only 6(?) episodes. Second season is much better. In all I think its 14 eps but its showing promise. On Netflix btw

It won't be on Amazon, Netflix or Hulu, but try Legend of the Galactic Heroes. It's a bit on the long side, but it's very worth it if you're a fan of political intrigue. Should still be able to find the main OVA series on Youtube.

I can vouch for these as well, all of them are excellent action series and among the best anime of all time. In particular, do NOT ignore Madoka Magica because of its cute exterior, because there is much, much more to it than meets the eye.

I've only really watched basic bitch anime and I've enjoyed it. Essentially all the stuff both weebs and normies alike have seen, i.e. Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon, Pokemon, Attack on Titan, Death Note, Sword Art Online. Bits of Fairy Tail and Inuyasha.

Also not sure if it counts, but I absolutely loved Avatar: The Last Airbender.

Dragonball Z Kai is also a strong recommendation from me.

I'd also say Goblin Slayer but

Gundam

Don't fuck with Seed tho.

As far as what Hulu has, Id definitely recommend Gundam The Origin and 08th MS Team. You dont need an extensive gundam knowledge to enjoy these. Same can be said for Wing and 00, but those take longer to get through.

Seed is easy to digest by itself, but it's shit imo.

Gundam the origin is really fucking good. TC probably won't appreciate it as much without some gundam knowledge but it's really well done

Fist of the North Star is a goto for newbies. One Punch Man won't do you any good cause you need to know what it's parodying to appreciate it.

Sabagebu
Its absurdist humor the likes of adventure time and regular show.
Asobi Asobase is also said to be the cross between Nichijou (itself a pretty reputable gag show but Im personally not much of a fan) and Its always Sunny in Philadelphia.
