I enjoy a bit of anime, but I don’t follow all the news and shows - I just pick up stuff by recommendations or a bit of searching.

So, people who actually know what they’re talking about - are any of these actually good? Are any so bad they’re worth completely avoiding? Any of them have particularly off-putting / offensive “fan service”?

    Appleseed is decent Scifi. If you like it though you should definitely check out Ghost in the Shell which is by the same author.

      Thanks, I’ve already seen the original Ghost in the Shell movie, are there any other good ones?

        If you like those, it is likely that you might also like:

        BLAME! - really wonderful world setting

        No.6 - story about a dystopian future. an underrated gem.

        Paprika - a classic. futuristic psychological horror. it is pretty scary in the way black mirror is scary.

          Thank you! I’ve added those to my watch-list :-) Paprika used to be on an old watch-list years ago, not sure how I forgot about it!
