Hey Anime Nerds, what are some dope ass anime series that are "staples" that I probably haven't seen before?
(hexbear.net)
I'm talking like, Bubblegum Crisis, an Anime that I am somehow aware of but have never watched.
I've seen bits and peaces of the stuff that was airing here in the 2000 like; Dragonball, Dragonball Z, Sailor Moon, Big O, Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star, Yu Yu Hakusho, Inuyasha, Full Metal Alchemist, Ranma 1/2, Gundam Wing. I have not even begun to touch 1 Peace. Basically, if it was on Toonami, I've probably seen some of it.
I feel like there is stuff from the late 80s through the 90s that were popular through the import scenes that I probably never heard of, that everyone who is in that scene knows and loves.
Your list is pretty action focused. Not sure if that's your preference or just what aired for you. My recs would be
Ouran High School Host Club - A slice of life romcom.Transphobic language, but generally positive representation. It's an absurd comedy about rich students playing at being a Host club and the scholarship student they rope into their shenanigans.
Great Teacher Onizuka (G.T.O) - A moronic hooligan becomes the homeroom teacher to a group of twisted bully students and slowly wins them over. Be warned Onizuka is a creep especially in the first two episodes.
