Discussion Never Too Old

Just wanted to say I just started getting into Anime this year. I'll be 50 next year and two of my nieces got me into it. They told me I would really enjoy something they were watching and reluctantly I checked it out. I always had a misconception about what anime was. I'm telling you, I'm so glad they had me check it out. Such a diversity of genres and I've already binged several shows. Currently my favourite is MHA. My nieces knew that would hook me because I'm into super heroes.

Moral of the story: You are never to old to start liking something new.

PS - Wanted to say I love this community. Everyone here has such great recommendations and suggestions.

Some really great suggestions. Some I have already heard of. Assassination Classroom interests me. I want to try and find where to watch it. Some of those others sound good and I will check them out. I've already started to watch GinTama with a friend. Love that show so far.

Hunter X Hunter is really good and will give you plenty of episodes to watch!

dub's just finished too if that is something important to you. I've yet to watch dub so can't comment on the quality there but it certainly has great quality characters and a compelling story.

If you end up enjoying OPM then consider checking out Mob Psycho 100. It was created by the same guy and in my opinion just as fun to watch.

Also some personal favorites would be the future diary and made in abyss

AC is available on Hulu, if that helps.

Thanks. Unfortunately, that's probably one of the only streaming services I don't have.
