My daughter is 13, and is getting in to anime, I guess. She's been binge watching Attack on Titan this week. I know exactly nothing about it because I'm not interested in it, but I'd like to find her some good anime to watch, that isn't full of the typical borderline porno stuff it seems is popular with G*mers.

Can anyone suggest a couple to get her going? I'd like to do something for her and get a jellyfin server going but dunno what to put on it. What would you suggest for someone getting into anime? Are there services worth paying for? Should I just be sailing the seas?

Asking her she says she likes

No Hero Academia,
Naruto,
Dan Da Dan,
Jojo,

Thanks yall.

ETA - I just gave her the list of stuff suggested so far and she squealed. She says thanks. I appreciate yall. Kiddo is happy then daddo is happy too.

eta2 - I have to go to bed, I was supposed to be asleep an hour or two ago but everyone has given me such a big list to start on that I didn't want to not tell anyone thanks. Thank yall. I have a chance to give my daughter some media she will like, so I score some points with her for being a good dad, and I have a cheap excuse to sit and do something with her, even if it's just television entertainment. At some point mom and dad aren't priorities anymore and I have a chance to bond some more. I appreciate that the most I think.

If this is on the list my daughter really liked Made in Abyss season 1. She isn't allowed to watch the movie until she's about OP's daughters age. Mature content warning.

Much more tame, Trigun Stampede, SAO, Accel world, Stein's;Gate, etc...

I wouldn't recommend Steins;Gate to a 13 year old just because of how misogynist it gets

Thanks. My thirteen year old daughter is exposed to themes like this daily and I'd rather not normalize it via cartoon. That person seems weirdly combative about something. I just blocked them.

You are the weirdest weirdo in this thread.

[–] Feinsteins_Ghost@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

Is there a reason you feel the need to be like that?

It's not appreciated.

MiA is so much worse than PG 13. I don't remember the exact scope of S1, but the movie and probably the last season are solidly deserving of being R rated if banning them is not an option (and the movie seriously has some of the most revolting shit I've ever seen. The fight scene at the end is pretty well-done, but it's not worth the disgusting, sadistic fetishist shit elsewhere in the film).

[–] redsand@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

This is an example of someone who couldn't handle the movie. It isn't for everyone. Certainly not for a casual fight anime.

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, I'm sure that the sadistic pedo shit is in the eye of the beholder and I'm just too lily-livered for it.

[–] redsand@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Pretty much yeah. If you can't handle Bondrewd go no further. It's gruesome, nuanced and not for general audiences.
