I've never understood why Cowboy Bebop is often said to be a good gateway anime when it is unlike almost any other anime I've seen. If it resonates with you and then you watch other anime hoping for the same hit you will be sorely disappointed
@wallhackio Yeah, like, I think a lot of the "I don't like anime but..." praise that gets heaped on Cowboy Bebop in particular is because it's very different from standard stuff
@wallhackio I do still need to watch that tho
@coriander its really really good
@wallhackio I own it on bluray I just haven't gotten to it
@coriander @wallhackio watch ittttttt
@coriander if i play pacific drive then you have to watch it
@coriander @wallhackio it really is that good. cannot recommend it enough
Gurren Lagann is a better "gateway anime" if you want to see if you would like shonen-esque anime (I can't speak to shojo or moe stuff, I haven't watched many)
