Are there any animes or TV shows you can’t stop recommending?
Honestly, Cowboy Bebop. The universe it builds feels lived-in, and the animation style is incredibl, but the music is really the star.
Be aware, however, that while there are happy moments, it is an anime about bounty hunters, and there are very few happy endings. Beautiful endings, poetic endings, satisfying endings - but never happy.

What is so great about this? Just watched the first couple of eps. First impression is not good: It seems like the classical mindless shonen fighting anime alongside pretty childish humor and a distastefully sexualized main female character. Her outfit is literally a bikini and she’s sexualized in the very first scene and in basically every scene she’s in since that one, wtf?
Watch until episode 9 at least.
I just didn’t have the patience for that honestly. I doubt it will make a difference.
You can fully skip episode 4, if it matters at all. The first two episodes are pretty strong but after that it kind of rambles a bit until around episode 6 or so.
