Anime for my daughter - a question (hexbear.net)

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.

Only about halfway through the series at the moment (so no spoilers please!), but it did stick out like a sore thumb and seemed very fash when the demons were treated as inherently evil beings with no ability to ever integrate within society(as this is how fascists dehumanise their enemies), if it was established that demons are raised in a culture of violence and that is why they are the way they are, it could be better, but the show goes out of its way to say that any and all demons are inherently evil and can never integrate with society and must just be destroyed. Which ok, fantasy world, they are literal monsters that just look like people, but it is still a little worrying and weirdly poorly thought out compared to everything else I've seen in the show, which is probably why people criticise this part so much. Maybe it gets better later, but so far it's easily been the only thing I can say is a full on "negative" about the show, it seems at odds with the rest of the show's philosophy and messaging.
