Just because you don't understand it doesn't mean that it's boring.

there's nothing to understand it's just another tropey piece of shit shonen except slightly more well executed than average so a bunch of uncritical forum dweebs can sit around arguing over whether to watch the subbed version or the mediocre dub instead of finding something better to watch

I'm trying to watch Guren Laggan right now and I can tell you TC would **** all over it. I'm actually kind of surprised CE likes it as much as they do with the way they behave I would think they would consider it offensive. Lots of homophobia from the two main characters. Super hot female character who is practically naked 100% of the time with main characters accidentally groping her and lots of shots with her butt in their face or something. One of the main characters is an annoying jackass. Granted I have only watched 3 episodes so far. It hasn't really hooked me yet.

I am surprised you don't like AoT TC.

while I liked it, I'm kinda surprised that you seem to have a positive opinion on Carole and Tuesday.

maybe you might not like it, but I wanna recommend Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad.

it's about a high school guy joining a band.

i loved it until the ending ended up being the author pulling down his pants and farting right in my face at the last second

and then shippers telling me "you didnt understand the story" when they're the ones participating in ship wars in a story with nearly no romantic aspects whatsoever until the ending

the anime fandom is fucking ridiculous dude they literally don't pay any attention to what happens they're just there for the dopamine hits from the cute characters

I liked Gurren Lagann and even I can admit that it only really started to hook me after episode 8. It's a series that relies on escalation, and while the end result is worth it, I think the beginning-ish can be a really hard sell for anyone who doesn't already love anime or have the patience to wait for something to "get good".

Anyway as for my actual recommendations, here are 3 anime that I'd feel comfortable recommending to someone who hates anime.

Cowboy Bebop
Legend of the Galactic Heroes
Black Lagoon

Some of my favorite shows of all time tbh.

I know what you mean about the anime Fandom from watching the boards on this site as it was airing. I don't know about the nature of the disappointing ending because I watch it via anime. I've kept from skipping ahead this long, and the sound track and voice acting add a lot to the experience for me so I've been abstaining reading ahead. I do collect the Colossal editions, but they aren't past the Final Seasons first installment, so I can't really comment on the nature of the ending. I honestly don't know many other anime that are on tier w/Jo Jo's or AoT. I like Ghost in the Shell, but it isn't as exciting as either of those. Demon Slayer is fun if you're down for some mindless kids show, but so much of anime is goofy bullcrap. I have a hard time giving a new series a chance because I assume most anime are going to be bad.

The best animes are comedies but you can tell TC is a tryhard that wants his edgy serious stories to pretend like he's reading Charles Dickinson when TV shows in general have never been meant for extremely in-depth stories.

Another one I'm surprised not to see being recommended here is HunterXHunter. I remember this board hailing it as the best ever and people telling me I was dumb for liking Jo Jo more. I tried really hard to get into that one and even watched almost the first two seasons. It was soooooo corny and had this predictable sound track that would go every episode. It's one of those shows where every main character is like a 12 year old boy and one of the main villains is a full grown man who wants to "fight" the main character. Jusr never got exactly why that show is so loved, it wasn't any worse than standard Shonen, but that's pretty much all it was.

true, but the '97 series and Golden Age Arc movie trilogy are good in their own right, IMO.

the manga is still the best medium for it, though.

Ahiru no Sora
A short kid tries to be the best at basketball and is instead slightly above average at the hs level. All of the possible romantic interests only like him as a friend. It's the most realistic sports anime I've ever watched.
