Are there any animes or TV shows you can't stop recommending?

Gurren Lagan, to second like a dozen people. Kill la Kill is A+ if you can get over it being weird Also I adored Promare.

Cyberpunk Edgerunners is another great one from Trigger. Set in Night City, same world the Cyberpunk 2077 game, a year or so beforehand (but the plots are largely independent).

Real strong warning though: There are no happy endings in Night City. The ending will fuck you up.

Yeah someone already spoiled me on that, I find myself not enjoying stuff that has turbo-downer endings.

Wife refused to watch anime because "of all the weird shit". Inuyasha broke the ice, Naruto got her a little further, and then I said "Let's watch this - but I'm going to tell you right now, your first reaction is going to be to recoil and cringe. But I promise - if you give it a chance, you'll enjoy it".

And probably ONLY because she loves me so much, she did give it a chance. And WOO boy that helped open the flood gates to sooooo much more. She loved Kill La Kill by the end of it, and ended up being so much more willing to trod through uncomfortable stuff with me. Which, unfortunately, sometimes you have to do when it comes to Anime.

My wife sat down and started watching JoJo's Bizarre Adventure with me on a whim about half way through part one and she's a bigger weeb than I am now.
