Start as a grown man?
It's like saying you wanna start playing nintendo or weeb games when you were a normalfag all those years.
If your wife doesn't share your childish weeb hobbies (like mine) you may want to start with interesting movies like "in a corner of this world", "your name" or "3cm per second" or "the girl who lept through time" those are okay to watch either alone or with wife and kid. Ghibli movies are ok in a sense.
Avoid serialized animes like the plague.

"hey honey, I've been reading up on Japanese animation lately and was wondering if you'd like to watch some with me after dinner tonight. I think it could be a neat way for us to share more of our interests with each other."
"This is one of the more popular animated films/series, tell me what you think. There's a lot of variety, so if you think you'd prefer a different genre, let me know."
Be open to being more engaged with her interests too, as part of the bargain.
Approach it like television in the 60's, something to bond over and chill out in front of. Don't get obsessive.

isn't it 5cm per second?

1) install and configure mpv
2) install a torrent client (qbittorrent is breddy gud)
3) visit and search for their recommendations on nyaa.si or nyaa.pantsu.cat
my recommendations:
black lagoon, cowboy bebop, attack on titan, azumanga daioh have decent english dubs
girls last tour, violet evergarden, welcome to the nhk, battle programmer shirase have only subs if i'm not mistaken but i'd recommend them anyway

Jow Forums - Technology

prisma illya

oh come on. it's not like we ever actually talk about technology on Jow Forums. it's mostly architecture, pens, anime, philosophy of software and "durr my company is better than yours" type shitposting

Introduce your kid to anime and use him as excuse to watch.

knowing Japanese > subs > dubs

Yeah but it's not like he's gonna teach his wife(male) and loli how to speak nippon just to watch some cartoon.

Introduce your kid to anime ans use it as an excuse to watch magical girls

>giving your kid autism

Probably already has it genetically

if you like aesthetic computer stuff watch lain
it's good but it will also turn you into a trap

Start with a classic like Ninja Scroll.
Not recommended to be watched with the wife and child though.

What are some animes that resemble Madoka Magica?

>boku no pico
Excellent taste

want me tell you how you're a newfag plebbitor?

How is this Jow Forums related?

Install mpv, that's a good start.

>Neon Genesis Evangelion
That's the one that got me into anime. I wholeheartedly recommend it. But you gotta watch the movie "The End of Evangelion," or you'll be left very, very confused.

if you like aesthetic computer stuff watch boku no pico
it’s good but it will also turn you into a trap

It's fucking normie garbage.

by ignoring all recommendations itt you can skip step 1 and 2 and go directly to watching seasonal shit, the point where everyone ends up in the end

>doesn't know how autism works
>t. autist

Watching all the memes and classics is essential to enjoying the seasonal treadmill though.

thats not true
i droped bebop, never seen squidgirl or rosemaid or yuru and not a single ghibli movie
i skipped a lot of meme shows but seasonal is 100% more enjoyable than /a/non recommendations of old "classics"

>having your own opinion on some series that you watched means that you are contrarian
what the fuck are you talking about?
do you even know what contrarian means?
you are just bunch of stupid sheeps if you think that not liking something that "your social" group likes is bad or something.
everybody has got his own taste, you should have too, if you liked it so much just post that.

It's just my opinion(i've watched over 500 shows/movies if anidb is not lying).
I don't even know why someone can be so butthurt over some mediocre show.

tell me why you didnt like cowboy bebop? and at the same time felt ok about FMA and galactic legends?
give a reason instead of being a contrarian for contrarian's sake?

this doesnt belong here

LoGH had interesting characters, plot was not plain, it was infantile at times, but overall it was decent.

Fullmetal achelmist tells a story about brothers bond, characters were likeable.
It had interesting quite interesting plot, steampunkish world with some magic flavour, gags were stupid though.
It was not spectacular but nevertheless nice.

Cowboy bebop was painful to watch.
I don't even remember much of it other than that it was about some fights and space travel.
It was one of this shows that I've watched to the end for the sake of completing it.

I don't like Attack on Titan and Neon genesis Evangelion too if you want to know about other shows that I think are "shitty".

my english is not very good, I can't formulate my thoughts as clearly I would have in my native language, it sucks ;/

Is it like madoka magica that only really gets good in episode 3? Just watched the first one and it was pretty meh all around.

ah fair enough man, i just call out idiots because they just hate popular stuff just to sound cool and if they give fanboys as a reason then i think they are idiots honestly because a following shouldn't affect you're impression on the show or anything for that matter. so, thanks for replying dude.
i've understood your english well man.
you speak well, keep improving.
