I never watched anime until recently but I'm glad I started. The complete garbage coming out of the west is appalling, especially the scifi stuff.

Not only does it generally have good characters and plot but it also touches on subjects western media would be terrified to touch. Like a few episodes of Black Lagoon with a pair of exploited children.

Finished The Irresponsible Captain Tylor recently. It did something that Western media has failed to do for so long. It made me laugh and not even in a "this is cringe" way. Just a good fun show.
