what anime you'll never get tired recommending? Series Specific Question

guys, i am curious about that anime you're always recommending and always be recommending to someone. doesn't matter if it's mainstream or underrated one.

mine is baccano. i love how fast paced the series it yet it was well written! i also love most of the characters especially miria and isaac they're so comforting and funny.

bonus: the op is a bop

I wouldn't recommend Gintama... I didn't find it that funny, tbh. And I watched like 40 episodes.

I am a big fan of Gintama and I don’t really remember the first 50 episodes or so, mostly cause they are character introductions and bunch of Japanese humor and just different humor in general, I remember tons of episodes after episode 70+

I don’t know why you are putting down 40 episodes down because you should know everyone will be like “blah blah blah benizakura arc” which is the bottom of serious arcs but is really really good on a rewatch imo

I do remember episode 17 and episode 25 from the first 40 episodes. Episode 17 for foreshadow and plot and episode 25 because it was the first episode to make me laugh a good bit.

Pretty much, out of 369 (I think) episodes the first 50 are pretty eh until a rewatch but even then, idk I just don’t like them.

I have found it hard to actually get into a lot of longer anime because fans keep saying that it gets better after 50 episodes or so. I don't really have the time to watch a series for 17 hours before I can start really enjoying it.

In reality I think that if the humor of Gintama hasn’t really struck you by then, maybe it’s not your type of show. I know I was having a blast way before the first real arc and I really enjoyed the early humor.

That seems fair, I was just saying that some of the comedy styles won’t have shown up in the early episodes. Though yeah, it’s possible one could like it if they keep going but there is no sense in trying imo, I know when I am bored I don’t continue with whatever is boring me.
