So I got her watching a few animes in the past year, our first was beastars, she liked it, then full metal, also one she liked, I showed her some space dandy but she wasn’t totally interested, and it’s been tough to find one that really hooked her. Then I found it, one day of just “eh whatever I’ll put this on” we started romantic killer, and it’s surprisingly really good. I like it but she loves it. Shell literally play it as her comfort show, I must have seen the season 3 times over now.
Now this is great and all, but I still wanna show her more things she’ll like, any ideas? I was thinking toradora is a long the same vein but so far my suggestions have fallen kind of flat and I haven’t really seen much slice of life, So I’d like to see what you all think
Horimiya is a modern day classic slice of life. Spy x family is good and wholesome. If you want a slice mystery murder Oshi No Ku(warning for suicide and death) . If you want to cry To your eternity(lots of death). Violet evergarden is a great. And I recommend everyone Mob psycho 100
Want a really obscure recommendation: Yamada’s First Time: B Gata H Kei which might sound really not like what you’re looking for when reading the synopsis, but is actually a really solid rom-com that doesn’t follow the cookie-cutter tropes. Well, it does but only to a degree.
Then there is Ore Monogatari!! which I consider being one of the most refreshing rom-coms since they don’t spend all season on getting to the relationship but are developing that relationship instead.
Lastly, my favorite rom-com series is Working!! which is just perfection that got even better with each season.
I don’t particularly remember it having fan service, outside of what fits the story. But it’s been 13 years since I’ve seen it, so it might be just my nostalgia googles. But that just tells me it’s time for a rewatch once I’ve whittled down the anime of the season to a manageable amount.
I haven’t actually seen Romantic Killer, but from the sound of it it seems to have the same vibe as Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-Kun. It’s personally one of my comfort romcoms, with very light-hearted but funny humor and more focus on the comedy aspect of romcoms. Used to be on Netflix but I guess it got taken off recently.

If you don’t mind it not being a romance show, I would honetsly say Attack on Titan, nearly anyone can get hooked on that show.

On Netflix,
I’ll second blue period. Definitely makes you think and see artistry in a different way.
Sounds like she needs to be eased into anime with shows that aren’t too violently weeb and approachable.
BNA (in case yall furries)
Kings Ranking (masterclass animation and full of love)
Welcome to Demon School Iruma-kun (excessive fun and friendship)
Mob Phycho (violent goodness)
Made in Abyss (in case you want to break her)
Ponyo (Or literally anything from Studio Ghibli [I mean literally anything])
It’s been said before but I’ll say it again for engagement on Lemmy :)
Spy Family would be my recommendation in case you haven’t seen it. Clannad is also a good one
