I think a fan of True Detective might appreciate Monster.

Erased is another good mystery/thriller, IMO.

Yeah, Monster was my immediate thought when you said True Detective. The premise is that a doctor tanks his career by choosing to operate on a child rather than the mayor of his town, leading to the mayor's death. Years later, he learns the child is a sociopath and grew up to be a serial killer. He feels duty bound to stop him. Just be warned that it is an extremely slow burn. It's about 70 episodes long and goes really heavy on the introspective human nature stuff.

Not technically anime, I'm with you on not really liking it at all, but that Arcane show on Netflix was really solid and had little to no cringe factor imo.

Granted it's been a while since I watched but I don't remember much overtly cringy stuff. Didn't like season 2 as much, but I like to think season 1 still holds up as a good sci-fi crime thriller.

I second the suggestion of Monster. Fantastic anime that I always recommend to people that haven't seen it.

Same for Baccano. And watch Baccano with English voices. It takes places in prohibition Era Chicago and they really nailed the mobster accents. What I really like about Baccano is that it tells the story through the point of view of like a dozen characters. So the plot slowly starts to make sense as you see more of what actually happened.

In the same mafia vein, I'd also Recommend 91 Days. It's about a man who wants to avenge his family that was murdered.

Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom might be up your alley as well. It's about assassins that have no memory of their past. Interesting story, but I won't spoil what happens.

I wish there was something else slice-of-lifey that was as easy to jump into and love as Ranma was.

Anywho as someone else who has stopped with anime for the most part, I recommend Shinsekai Yori. Yes, the characters are children (at the start) but the story is so engaging and deep. I loved every moment of it.

"I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level" is a lovely slice of life series.

I never finished Monster, the segways became too meandering for the main story. And that's despite reading the entire manga and there really isn't that much difference. It just doesn't work as well in tv format for me.

I remember really enjoying Silver Spoon back when it was on Netflix. Just this cozy slice of life story that takes place in an agriculture school. I actually liked this anime enough to read the manga.
