@Shae Erisson Here's a list of what we've watched so far: - Frieren - Fruits Basket - Orange - Erased - Classroom of the Elite (excessive fan service warning) - Rent-a-Girlfriend (ditto) - Violet Evergarden
I've also personally been watching Attack on Titan, but it's too much on the gory side for Katy's tastes. It's really good otherwise, though.
@shapr Since this popped up in my feed, I'll take the opportunity to recommend the following: - Scrapped Princess (it sounds like the kind of thing that would have a lot of fan service, but there's hardly any) - Steins;Gate (being a story based around time manipulation, you'd think there wouldn't be fan service, but there is a little)
@shapr I've been watching a bit of anime lately after several years of not. Here's my list for the year so far (I haven't finished most of these): - Frieren (now my favourite anime series) - Solo Leveling - Dr Stone - Jujutsu Kaisen - Jojo's Bizarre Adventure - Mob Psycho 100 (My second favourite on this list) - Black Clover (I stopped after two episodes)
@shapr Unexpectedly? One of the first things I learned was that my parents wouldn't let me watch the cartoons my older brothers watched.
That reason was explicit lewdness and graphic violent views of the world. Pretty sure when I got to violate those rules, my first intro was Akira. Not a huge fan of fan service, I'm in for the bleak apocalyptic stories.

Any more suggestions?

in reply to Shae Erisson • •@Shae Erisson Honestly, most of my knowledge of anime is from the late 90s (when I was more into it). I'm only starting to get back into it now.
I recall really liking Samurai Champloo, but haven't seen Wolf Rain at all.

May I suggest "A Place Further Than the Universe"? And "Sound! Euphonium." No fan service in either.
And just a note, Frieren is my favorite anime. It's so good.

in reply to Jonathan Lamothe • • •Next question, how do I get subtitles for media that doesn't already include them?
I have much to learn!
Jonathan Lamothe
in reply to Shae Erisson • •@Shae Erisson @TanekRune I've found that most media already has subtitles, bit there's always opensubtitles.org
Unfortunately, the subtitle files often need a little tweaking to get the synchronization right.

What they said. I'm quite technologically repressed due to being addicted mostly to the chatroom side of the internet, unfortunately.
For anyone looking into Redline, Tubi had it free for a while and either the subtitled or dubbed versions seemed great for voice acting.
