Does anyone have any recommendations for someone who doesn't really like anime or at least not the modern tropes of anime?
When I first started giving anime a shot I watched a lot of the older classics and felt that I really enjoyed those early shows and movies, think Cowboy Bebop, Ghost in the Shell, and Evangelion, however, now the animation styles and storytelling have vastly shifted.
I just can't seem to find anything I'm into and everything seems to be really daunting to get into anyway cuz I see a backlog of hundreds of episodes.
So if you have any suggestions for shows that have an ending and don't rely on too many of the typical tropes and non-linear storytelling, please let me know your show and movie recs.
Oh and I'm fluent in Japanese so language isn't an issue.
You're right! There's probably tons that I've missed from those years.
Hey it's better to have a list to work with than just searching at random.
I'll be sure to follow up if I find something that grabs me.
Thank you, I really appreciate it.
I have a ton to look up and work with now!
I'll look these up.
I appreciate the list!

Definitely wasn't trying to flex. Just didn't want a good suggestion to go by if language was a barrier.
