    My biggest issue is that I’ll start one highly rated anime which is serious and artistic, and then the moment I invite friends over Netflix decides to fill my recommendations with a bunch of boob service thumbnails.

      I agree with this so hard. There are anime shows I’d love to watch with my wife but the ridiculous amount of “fan service” even those seem to have makes it a nonstarter.

        Really? Do you have some examples?

        Because otoh, when I think of highly rated anime, there’s barely anything like this that comes to mind. I’m thinking of stuff like Fullmetal Alchemist, Hunter x Hunter, Frieren and Spy Family, for example. Neon Genesis Evangelion is a better fit, admittedly.

        Shows like One Piece, JJK and whatnot may be different, but personally, I don’t think too highly of them, anyway.
