Any "must-see anime starter pack"?

I find it hard to recommend long / ongoing anime in starter packs, BECAUSE they’d take so long to get into and caught up with. So my go to is usually more common names, or more specific ones, like DBZ, Digimon, Shaman King, Cowboy Bebop, Eva, etc

I actually agree with you. I was contemplating on if I should include One Piece; but when I was starting out at the age 15, I liked One Piece from the first episode. So I had decided to include it for the Time period I was describing.

Fair enough. There was a time when I’d recommend certain series, but as they grew, maybe introduce friends to other ones to get them started :smiley:

    (15 was gonna be an obvious joke, but apparently the name of this anime is a banned word, the initial’s of the show was B.N.P. That makes 2 words or phrases that are on the banned list I found (wish a Mod or someone would post a list of them somewhere so people can avoid them! The censorship is a bit ridiculous in my opinion))
