What would be the ideal anime to show to someone who hasn't seen anime but wants to get into it?

Ask what genre they like and then start from there. Like TV-shows, you can't just go with whatever.

The Big O, Shinsekai Yori, Monster, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Seirei No Moribito, Baccano!, Katanagatari, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann or Kon's films. Metropolis works, too.

Why not introduce him to the medium with titles worth watching? Also, if you're going to recommend shounen titles to someone as an introduction to anime, at least mention HxH 2011.

Can't tell if serious. If so, please stop.

These are all good, but maybe not champloo depending on who it is we're trying to indoctrinate. I love the show, but are you sure it's a good anime introduction?

What are they like?

This. It's truly one of the greatest animes ever made alongside Elfen Lied, Gundam SEED and Konosuba

Champloo is basically Bebop in post Edo period Japan, so yeah, it gets a pass.

depends entirely on what the person likes
I certainly wouldn't get into anime if someone showed me DBZ, naruto and the like because until I started browsing 4chan I was under the impression shonens featuring buff men with throbbing forehead veins screaming was all there was to the medium until I found about CGDCT. Now I watch other shows alongside those but I don't think I'd ever get into it if my initial impression wasn't dispelled by cute reaction images I saw posted on here.

Death Parade and maybe 91 days. These both are (in my opinion) are pretty good shows and are pretty much the least anime an anime can get. As gateway shows these are good. First introduce them to the style, then slowly to the weirdness of the medium

Black lagoon, darker then black, trigun and kill la kill are also good.

Forgot to say
You normally want some thing fast pace for a starter. I also hate watching long stuff like dbz because of the long nothings when the manga is much better.
also girls un panzer, mob phyco 100, one puch man, redline movie and full metal alch brother hood.

Find out what genres they like and recommend them the best fits from those. Most people who dislike anime do so out of ignorance and assume all anime follows a particular pattern. Most of the time they are simply not aware of the diverse genres available. OP, if I can get my 50 year old aunt to watch anime by showing her K-On you can get your friend to watch something. Just do a little thinking and find something based on his interests.

How old are they?

What is their favorite show/movie?

Miyazaki is universally safe, though the above factors would affect which one would be ideal, of course. You do not, however, introduce your gramah to anime through Tokyo Ghoul, nor a violent teen pothead through Mushi-shi. (Though, the other way around might work out.)

You wouldn't introduce Mushishi to a pothead?
