"i went for a mix of personal favorites and ""essential"" viewing, so there's some things in here i don't actually like (and one show i HATE) but i won't tell you which"
don't be a gaylord
thankfully grave of the fireflies is a movie and not a show so it's not what i was talking about there but i want him to go in with no bias or expectations if he watches any of them

and yes i meant watamote

@MagicHour you need to watch some animu properly lest you remain a POSER in the fields of SUFFERING

this is your homework, you have to pick anything from this list of 20 and binge watch it within a week or you will fail the class. don't look anything up about any of them even if you're sure you already know. pick a name and go in knowing nothing. i've not added anything that goes on for ages like berserk or GTO
i went for a mix of personal favorites and ""essential"" viewing, so there's some things in here i don't actually like (and one show i HATE) but i won't tell you which. just pick whatever name catches your eye and use this as a checklist. i don't expect you to go through this list intensely or anything
maybe sewiegesogroyp can help Refine this list because he probably disagrees with half of it

I created an MAL account last night actually

I've seen Akira at least six times even though it's just kind of boring, honestly. I think I'm set on watching NGE sometime soon.

Madoka is an unusual character for Urobuchi's writing style, and fits more closely to character designer Ume Aoki's worldview. In order to incorporate a "foreign character that did not exist inside [himself]," Urobuchi wrote the initial script as if Yuno, the main character of Aoki's manga series Hidamari Sketch, was the protagonist.

Ume is a metapod that lives on the roof of the Hidamari Apartments and represents the manga's author, Ume Aoki. The character does not actually play any significant role in the story.

hanakana's voice has never been surpassed. after she dies, AI hanakana models should be used in anime and geemu in perpetuity.

Watching the anime "Dungeon People". The heroine accidentally find the administrator to the dungeon who is a little girl and they duel and the heroine is owned leading to her working to administer the dungeon. Interesting idea and I love the cutesy art style combined with gaming themes. After a long day at work (slavery) i can really calm my mind with another episode of this anime. I recommend.
