show him boko no piku desu

Watch it with him. The fuck is wrong with you?

watch all the shitty anime together

Indulge him, he wants to get closer to you. I don't think he really cares about the actual anime, he just wants to get to know you better through your interests.

Show him something like Mushi-shi. He'll probably enjoy it

Devilman crybaby, do it and post the results.

ridicule him for being such a manchild

He would probably think it's boring, he likes stuff like Star Trek or Lord of The Rings

Then make him watch Kill La Kill and see how he fades away.

Then he'll love the Berserk movies

>letting someone know you watch anime
You fucked up big time

>Star Trek
Space Battleship Yamato

Watch Fate/zero with him.

Show him Sora Yori.

There's nothing more pure than father x son bonding.

choose death note

star trek is boring as shit my man, try death note

Just to be on the safe side watch Cowboy Bebop with him, or Samurai Champloo.

Then watch Fullmetal Alchemist with him.

Pretty much this. Its a very good intro series for someone new. If he really would rather have some kind of sci fi thing or whatever Planetes is always my go to for that.

Fate/Zero might be good
Also FMA:B

>Cowboy Bebop
tranny episode, naked women
>Samurai Champloo
too weebish for a first time watch
you gotta be careful around normies man

Don't listen to the other fags, just choose a daughteru show, all true man love and protect little girls.

I'd recommend fmab or that one space pirate captain Harlock movie on there

LotGH it is then. Or Space Battleship Yamatto 2199.

But seriously, just watch Death Note or something with him on Netflix. Its a good way to spend time with him.

Senpai, do you take your father for someone who has never seen a naked woman or know what trannys are?
Give him some credit.

nice rec thread

I'm not OP, it's just usually very uncomfortable to sit through "it's a T&A episode" with one of your parents, I'm just giving him a word of warning

Is Ghost in the Shell there?

Tell him they based a live action movie on it and it sucked, here's the real deal.

Rurouni Kenshin

I get that but still, give them credit. Or give them a word of warning.

And whatever you do, stay stone faced and don't get a boner.

This. I recommend Usagi Drop

You critisize the tranny and naked woman but don't comment on any of the wild shit of F/Z?
>Worms raping a little girl
>Children being tortured to death and then tortured some more
>Weird magic blabber which makes more sense if you have an idea of Nasuverse
>Everything Kerry related
I like F/Z, but I'd recommen Cowboy bebop to my dad because it's still quite low key and has good music.

Wow, what a funny and original me me

Couldn’t get my dad to watch Bebop with me cuz he got bored with the first episode. Later I find him watching Seven Deadly Sins and Gunslinger Girl on his own. How do I tell him his taste is shit?

And the problem is?

You can't - just give it time
Most people watch anime as a guilty pleasure and not their main form of media consumption. Eventually he will either grow tired with it or get taste

>can have waifu wars in real life instead of Sup Forums.
Sounds like a treat.

He's entry level. He must watch entry level stuff first to appretiate better shows. You started of like that too, no?

>Children
The worm rape is barely present and is to develop Kariya's motivation. The child torture is to develop the bad guys. Most adults have seen movies with really terrible and terrifying villains. It adds drama to the show.

>Magic blabber
OP said his dad likes Lord of the Rings and Star Trek. All the blabber, world building, and explanations would be fun for such a geek.

>Everything Kerry related
Tbh he is a pretty popular anti-hero with Japanese and Western demographics. He's like batman or something

Wasn't talking about F/Z
Obviously knowledge and descretion is advised.

Is your dad the type of person who can go to a good movie and say they liked it because of teh concepts and directing or because it had cool explosions in it?

You could take them down the NGE hole at somepoint.
THAT would be a fun experiance. Do that and post back here.

Pretty much every parent has shit taste. I've come to terms with this fact. If your parents have good taste it's somewhat likely that you are on a level we cannot even fathom.

Get a new dad

If Lodoss War and Tenchi are entry level

Gore is by far not as taboo as sex in our society user

>batman

Fuck it make him watch Big-O

This. Remember Breaking Bad has tones of violent shit that happens in it and it's highly acclaimed.
Remember the shit people watch on normal everyday TV, or at least on HBO or rated R movies.

Killing Bites.

What I was trying to say, user. Saying that Cowboy Bebop is a risqué to watch seems kinda unreflected considering that F/Z is quite the wild ride in itself with things that may upset people that are already disturbed by the thoughts of trannys and naked women. I'm not critisizing F/Z as such.

Yes, they are.

i watched kimi no na wa over christmas on amazon prime

Sorry, I'm from Europe. Naked women on TV is less of a problem here. It's rather the other way around, that people get a litte bit upity with violence. Speak about cultural differences.

GITS and Akira are there

>cultural differences
Yeah. Yeaah..
Well I guess that means you're open to more Haremshit.

Still I'm interested in how they would be with watching NGE.
That show by far has has the most different reactions and understandings to it than anything else I've recommended to friends or other people.
Never really done so with a parent, but I'm super interested. It'd be like a case study.

Right now is probably the worst time to watch LotGH and you know why.

This, Bebop is amazing normalfag bait.

Psycho Pass

Pretty good choice actually. You can hype up the "muh interesting societal questions" bit.
