I'm having a problem: I think I'm slowly becoming a man with no taste. Now what's better than gaining taste than by stealing it?
I want to know what you guys recommend off the top of your heads.

Let's stretch that character count.
F is for Family is an animation that I like, by Bill Burr and is politically incorrect but stuff funny and relatable. Fav part is in S2 where Bob is talking to Rosie (Black Guy) "I know Slavery was wrong Rosie but I would have paid top dollar for you." He tries to come across as affectionate in his own stupid way but says something racist instead. Last season, S5 being made now after Netflix ordered that it be the last. Was fun while it lasted however.

Thunderbolt Fantasy is a taiwanese puppet Wuxia written by Gen Urobuchi (Madoka and others). It is really fun, 2 seasons and 2 movies with a S3 sometime really soon. Love this series, rekindled my love of Wuxia. Scene
Also got a manga for S1 and yes that is Syou Fu Kan killing a guy with just a stick. Page

Orville
Is basically Star Trek in Spirit if not name. Seth hired people who worked on TNG and Voyager and made his own series that has some good to great episodes. Elara episodes in particular tend to be very good. Watching STD
Hacksaw Ridge:
Mel Gibson directed war movie, came out before 1917 and I think has been a little forgotten. It's a pretty good movie about being strong enough to believe in your convictions. Trailer
Lupin III The First:
Stylized animated movie from Japan, on par or even surpassing Pixar's quality. Good mystery, good characters. Don't watch it dubbed, native is better. Trailer
Helsreach
An audio book on the city of Helsreach in 40k but animated and cleaned up. A 2:30 hour movie on how awesome the Astartes are. Movie
Ghost Stories Dub:
This is a national treasure and should be watched at least once. Trailer
Battlebots:
4 seasons of the reboot now, 5th almost here. They tried the "First female in the sport" angle in the 2nd season but... Robot combat is all about results, you put a sand cover trap as your main weapon, yeah, that shit is flying off. Tombstone is always a crowd favorite because of his high damage. Tombstone Fight
Terry Pratchett Sky TV Movies
Before that awful Watchman series comes out, Terry actually had a few movies produced by Sky in 2010, Color of Magic, Hogsfather and my favorite, Going Postal. Not only do they stick with the spirit of the books, there's bloody good acting in there as well. Part 1 of Postal
Hornblower
Speaking of TV movies. Each episode is 1:40 in length and it follows a young navy cadet in the British navy, a little stuffy but really good quality for an early 2000s series. First episode
Scrubs
was a sitcom from 1998 to 2008. It's a good mix of character drama, jokes and JD's daydreams. Recent news about this is that Sam Lloyd, Ted died of cancer last year. And Zach and Donald are doing a podcast rewatching each episode. They addressed the blackface stuff when BLM was popular in May and I think they had the episodes pulled. It's BS to be honest so I don't bother with that. The series itself I like. Best of Ted
Boondocks
It's racist, it's black but it's also a look at black culture in 2006-2008 America. There's a reboot coming but Grandad died last year so who knows what'll happen to that. They also pulled the Jimmy Rebel episode, which again is BS. JImmy Rebel
Gargoyles
A forgotten Disney series. They were pretty hands off with this and as a cartoon, it's great. Kind of been forgotten by Disney and it's creator is/was trying to do something with it but he's probably moved on. Second season is where the good stuff is, 50 episodes of worldbuilding and character development, don't watch 3rd season, as that's unconnected. Intro
Pentagon Wars
is about Military Bureaucracy from a real life story. It's a subtle dry humor kind of film but I like it because it's slightly absurd but kind of did really happen. Best Bit Full move
Hero (2002)
A Wuxia staring Jet Li, it's a personal favorite not just in story, themes and characters but was made at a time when china was less shit globally. Trailer
Legend of Galactic Heroes
Long, Long, LOOOONG series. 110 episode main, 50 episode OVA, about a dozen movies. But oh so worth it. The main thrust of the story is the Twin protags of Yang Wen Li, a Tactical Genius who works for a failing corrupt democracy of the Free Planets Alliance but still believes in the idea of personal freedom and Reinhard von Lohengramm, a young aristocrat looking to seize power through military achievement after his sister is taken by the Kaizer. The duality of Democracy failing but still "Free" vs Rising Autocracy out of the stagnant Goldenbaum dynasty is why /pol/ love it so much. Oh, and the classical German music with space battles. They utilize it so effectively. Example OP 3 https://nyaa.si/view/262181
Space Battleship Yamato 2199
A 26 episode OVA remake of the Yamato from 2013, it's bloody brilliant. How do you keep something from the 80s, but revive it, clean up the sound effects, the animation but still retain that spirit of the voyage. This is how. Listen to that OP and tell me you don't want to head into the Sea of Stars. OP If you like Yamato after this, give Super Robot Wars V ago, Yamato plays a major part in that story. Can be tricky to get a hold of though, as Steam/Namco have region locked it.
Miami Vice:
Short during 84 - 89 in Miami, it's 80s to the core, with the music, the style of the cars, neon, drugs and babes in bikini's. A time when America was more fun. It's a solid crime show as well. Should be able to find BDs of it somewhere. Scene from first episode
Tintin (1991)
These were made by a French animation studio and bankrolled by good old Nelvanna. They're a little rough but I like em as they're very faithful adaptations of the books. 39 episodes total. Episode
Metalocalypse
Animation is a bit boddy horror at times but as a metal series, it's very very Brutal. Now if only AS could give Brendan the rights back and stop being Dildos about him wanting to finish the series. Pickle's Rehab
As for games: Darkest Dungeon (Mods)
Game is good by itself but mods can do so much more. Want more classes? Here's one good at Riposte. Game too hard because you don't know what to do? Here's icons on items, Increased inventory, stacked items and 5 trinket slots, plus a general healing buff of +2. Plus I love the artstyle of it. Game is hard but it isn't unfair and if it is too hard, you can mod in things to make it slightly easier. Better UI and above I'd just recommend to cut down on grind in the mid-late game. Thorn
Forever in the service of Milady. Thorn is a personal favorite mod class.
Xcom 2 (Mods)
Base game is sorta ehh, but the amount of assets you can bring into a mission is staggering. Imagine Modern Warfare Cpt Price in his gillie suit, Cannoness Selena Agna in full SoB armor, Sam Fisher with no armor and MEC Troopers coming back from Enemy Within all on a mission. It's amazing all the custom detail you can do. Downside is long loadtimes and potential conflicts in classes but you should be okay. Price
Stellaris
Get a pirate copy so you can get all the DLC. There's a good selection of mods, I'd recommend more research (Cortana AI if possible).with the matching Advisor. Both are very good mods that add her to the game, both with voice lines and function. Cortana
Dungeons 3
Don't know if people care for a Dungeon Keeper type game. Writing can get a little cringy, even in the DLC but adds Dark Elf Thalia as a hero to the dungeon so there's that. Give it a go though, I like it. Trailer
Spellforce 3
Ahhh, I love this. It's different to other games, not quite RTS or CRPG yet combines both and makes it work. Good writing and voices, gameplay is quick so using abilitles can be a but hard but it's just a good fantasy game that isn't selling you bullshit. Can immerse yourself in the world. Trailer
Yakuza 0
Leave this here. Translation is good, it's only later titles like A Dragon and 6 that had stuff changed for western release. Because of course they did. This is just pure cocaine. Nutshell
Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney Trilogy
3 games in one and for $30, Capcom is actually being nice for once. Played the originals back on the DS and the remaster holds true. Give it a go, it's popular for a reason. Also a lot of reading, so be prepared. Trailer
Homeworld Deserts of Kharak
Yeah, not the original Homeworlds or HD by Gearbox. I like this, it's story is smooth, the situation is unique and it's another journey that leads right into Homeworld 1. Gameplay
World in Conflict
Before Massive got enslaved by Ubisoft, they made this gorgeous game. What would happen if the Cold War went hot, the US gets invaded in Seattle (ha, ha they can have it) and as a response, it falls to National Guard forces to try and push them back as most of Americas military is stationed in Europe with NATO. The story to this was written by a Clancy like writer that takes situations like that and makes a compelling story out of them. USS Missouri turning up to save you in one mission for instance. I also love that alot of these weapons and tech are still "Cold War" so no missile destroyers, Javelins or modern gear, just old stuff their father used in Vietnam. Battleship
Trails in the Sky
Not one for the Legend of Heroes series, as that has alot of entries and I can't keep up with them all, same with Atelier. However, it was translated faithfully by XSEED and they did a really good job on these 3 JRPGs. What I like about this is they take place in one kingdom, meaning in 2nd you can walk around the entire map and I like that. It's a solid JRPG and I've played alot worse (Star Ocean 4 for example). Trailer
As for YTbers
Civvie11, Mandaloregaming, Ssethtzeench
Raycevick Mass Effect years later, very good.
ymfah's no killing Dark Brotherhood, no Magic Mage Guild and no stealing Thieves Guild are good.
Red Letter Media I like. And Alfa's Emperor TTS.
That's it, I could list more but there should be something there for you. I could list more like yuri manga, wuxia or anime recommendations but I'll keep them to myself for now. If you take nothing from this, just remember to have fun. I know it's a fugging meme like "Fun, what is that?" But you should enjoy whatever you do, have fun with it. Don't let them take that from you, because that's how you become blackpilled and that's bad.
I'm not even really into Warhammer and I love that series.
(And Tintin was awesome.)
