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.

    Took me a minute to think of something since the whole “battle shōnen” thing isn’t really my genre, but Inuyasha might be great for her. Teenage girl gets sent back in time to fantasy Japan and fights demons with a dirtbag half-demon boy and a cast of other weirdos.

        I can second that, Inuyasha is a very 13 year old girl show.

        I know because I was once 13 and all my friends who were girls were very into it

        I also would second Delicious in Dungeon/Dungeon Meshi. I haven’t seen the show, but the comic is delightful.

        Bocchi the Rock might be another good one. Extremely socially awkward guitar prodigy forms a band with other girls at her middle school.
