>>923601>Yes, you can. I have done so in the past.Then what is the point of recommending it? Just to say "I don't like this anime, but you might"?
>He's stated that he's already seen the former by the way and found it okay. I don't think you need to suggest that he watch it again.My mistake, I didn't read well enough, but so far I recd 2 anime that he has seen already. Why so much drama, mistakes happen?
>No, not everyone enjoys Parasyte and Steins GateVery true, but most consider them to be phenomenal anime even on /a/ and they are in most top lists you will ever see. They also fit OP's criteria, so what is wrong with recommending them?
>What's wrong with that is that it does not take into account what he's asking for or what he likes.I still don't get what you mean by this. He says he likes mecha, horror and shonen. True, I haven't got any mecha, and good horror anime is almost non-existent, but the others are mostly shonen anime. Why do you think they are not appropriate to recommend here?
>Your one-fits-all list is not something that will actually help anyone if it doesn't take into consideration what that person likes.Again, if the person wants shonen anime (among the other 2 which I don't have experience in), and I gave them the anime that are IMO the best shonen anime, why doesn't my list help?
>But for many people, your list would not fit at all.Of course, as I said there's nothing in this world that is objectively good entertainment, but MOST would find these anime (maybe not all of them) a very good place to start.
>Also, you have HxH on there twice. If you meant to say that both of its anime should be watched, there are better ways to do thatYeah my mistake, don't be such a drama queen, it happens.
>And, frankly, the 2011 version is pretty bland as an adaptation, as it's worse than the manga but provides nothing of its own.Agree to disagree. The 2011 version is the best version. It's has good animation, phenomenal soundtrack and voice acting.
