Which of these animes do i force my normie friend to watch?

[King Of Lolis]

To keep it short theres a special day of mine in 2 days and hes gonna come chill at my house.
Given we usually eat pizza at his house and watch whatever he puts on, il do the same when we eat pizza and put on my show but i dont know which one might appeal to him.
So choices are:

Fate/Zero
My favorite series besides JoJo and i want him to watch this one given its the only good Fate part but he dosent like king Arthur being a female.
Not to mention first episode is like 54 minutes long.


Cowboy bebop
A classic and he likes space stuff so this might interest him.

Vinland saga
One of best stories out there but it only gets good like after 6 episodes when main character is more mature.

Hellsing ultimate
Who dosent like vampires,especially Alucard. This might interest him but just like Fate, first episode is like 50 minutes long so he might lose interest



So, whats best option for him?
He dosent like anime but he does quite enjoy JoJos bizzare adventure and One Punch Man

I might get judged for this but I only watch anime in English dubbed.

Idea... ask what HE wants to watch and YOU try to suffer through it.

Nothing really
We watch same tv shows anyways
Friends,The walking dead,etc

And im not making deals with him again since 2021 mistake

"if you clear all riddler puzzles in batman arkham knight, i might watch fate zero"


Still waiting....

So you're expecting this friend of yours to just, be a clone of you?

Vinland saga would be pretty accessible for the normies

So do I. Yeah, there's a lot of judgmental attitude from the big Anime viewers when it comes to it, but the amount of genuine judgment you will get is pretty small.

I've only ever had one dude give me a really hard time over it.

[I throw ball at you]

Legend of the Galaxy Heroes
Slayers
No Game No life
Soul Eater
Vagabond

I haven't watch these but these anime pops in my head

I used to too till i saw that dub hasnt released new season yet so i switched.
For example JoJo was already on part5 while dub version hasnt released 4 yet.

Or re:zero, came out in 2016 but dub took 2-3 years to come out.

[King Of Lolis]

Oh right forgot to update the status
He said it was alright on cowboy bebop
And perhaps he will watch it at his 12 hour shift work given hes bored

Made him watch first two eps and then the one with cowboy andy

those are all slow burns it takes over 4 episodes to go anywhere.

Hellsing is literally that one anime that just wants to see Nazi's, The British and Austraillians face off against Vampires and Werewolfs, and every 5 seconds the main bad guy gloats how his zeppelin is biggest

Depends on how you look at it
Fate/Zero starts when holy grail war starts which is like end of first ep.

Vinland saga is all about thorfinn's life and seeing him grow up so iirc thats ep2 or 3.

Cowboy bebop is mostly bounty hunter crew going on random adventures so i wouldnt really say that it has a "true" start.

And hellsing ultimate i think started when major sended the valentine brothers to attack hellsing which is like ep2 i think

never saw f/z or any fate series. way too many to get into, way too many edgy hardcore saber memes back in the 00s. I could be wrong in my assessment, but from one angle of viewing there's like 1000 episodes of fate series now.

vinland starts slower than frozen honey and is still teasing the viewer by episode 6. I kept wanting things to happen, but he's just leveling. meanwhile i'm getting gobsmacked with a propaganda anime the UK may as well have hand crafted with their robot hands to market anglophilia.

the plot starts happening around 8 or 9, when spike's past begins to surface. the rest of the series is examining how and why society is falling apart. I admit the first two episodes are easy starters, but there's also a tone shift really shortly after them. the bounty hunter episode is one of the best from a character perspective, and probably one of the best overall, but it's hard to get someone hooked either way because they're going to be in for a jarring experience. sooner or later.

yeah but then they go to rio and basically start the pacing over again. focus on throwaway characters. etc.

As a hardcore Fate fan il just theres only 3 main parts and rest you could call dlcs

And only 1/3 of main parts is animated properly, rest are visual novels with 500 hours of reading( im not even joking)

Or how about you don’t force him to watch and instead “recommend” him anime.
