Within a couple minutes, the nine year old main character was completely naked with nipples drawn and the camera focusing on her chest, hips and butt for a transformation sequence, and all five of us just turned to him as one and went "What the fuck are you showing us"

Best way to recommend something whether its anime or anything else is to know the person your talking to's taste and give a few sentence elevator pitch specifically around what you think they would like, then just leave them to it. Everyone is much less likely to enjoy something they feel pushed into so leaving it in their court without being pushy is a big plus since they can check it out on their own time or ask you if you want to watch it then.

Minh is definitely the kind of anime fan who keeps up with the newest hotness, since he's watching stuff like Oshi no Ko right now and recommended Haruhi at the time. It makes a lot of sense why he pushed Haruhi because nearly ALL anime fans who keep up by seasons saw it while Woolie seems pretty out of the loop with anime outside of the few big series he got into like Attack on Titan and Jojo and it wasn't in his tastes in the first place. Anime discussion moves fast and there are simply those who keep up with the latest stuff and those who stick to what they know they enjoy. Also side note: Kamen Rider OOO is fantastic and that's always a great recommendation for anyone looking to get into Kamen Rider.

Reminds me of when my high school friend became a brony. Convinced me to watch an ep. and I trusted my boy and gave it a shot. Man… after 1 ep I just looked at him like I didn’t know who he was. We’re still friends, but if he still watched mlp I doubt anyone knows

I got so into Haruhi back then that I also read the light novels, which I remember being somewhat "in order" with random chapters of shenanigans between them. But yeah, there was also endless 8 which wasn't that bad as reading format. And the movie was also a popoff if you read the things.

Man.... seeing that Haruhi opening. Last time I watched it was in high school haha. Good times. I really liked that series. Watched the movie, read... *some* of the books lol. Sure as shit didn't watch the season with the 8 or so repeated episodes! Come to think of it, high school was probably *the* time when I watched the greatest variety of anime of genres (up until that point I'd mostly just watched action shounen type stuff like DBZ, Naruto, etc). I just had the time, I guess. Anyways, corny as it may sound, I do have some good memories of Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. I made a friend over it and while I don't know where that person is now, they were a good friend and I hope they're doing ok.

Imagine Devil-Minh trapping Woolie in an Endless Eight scenario with watching Haruhi in the basement

Everything said in this is true. At the same time, one of my best friendships and longest running buddies, really got going properly when they pulled this shit with me and Code Geass, so.

Imagine the opposite, your high school friends come over for a hangout and as the night is getting late they spot your Blockbuster rental sitting by the TV. They ask, "You got a movie there?" but you tell them its like the 5 or 6th DVD for an anime series called Neon Genesis Evangelion. Talking it up enough gets them curious enough to go, "Hey, if you haven't watched it yet you should put it on." thinking they've got enough context to see if the show is good. And then we start up Episode 24. Except there are no cool robots, no deadly angel battles, no sci-fi tech. There's just 15 minutes of two boys bonding with homosexual subtext, and the whole time my friends are asking me why we're watching gay anime. I attempt to try and tell them its not usually like this, but the episode just gets more and more overt in its homoeroticism. By the time the episode is over, my friends are confused, uncomfortable, and unsure of why they watched a mech pilot hold his perhaps gay lover to classical music for what felt like an eternity before decapitating him. I had no answers, and it wasn't until months later that we were able to laugh about it.

Woolie's gotta finish OOO's, it's ending is amazing

You know, I watched Haruhi and enjoyed it pretty casually, and now I'm wondering if having sought it out on my own instead of having someone personally try to show it to me was the right call lol. I did have a friend try to show me evangelian as a kid and they were acting as if it was the greatest thing ever but I also didn't really watch anime at all yet at the time so I just didn't like it at all lol.

I remember one of my friends really pushing Log Horizon on me, and I kept refusing for whatever reason, might have just been selling it wrong. I finally relented by saying he needed to watch Terraformars in exchange. I'm about 99% sure I got the better end of that deal, seeing as I ended up bringing through Season one before he even started the first episode. He eventually finished it and appreciated it for the same reason I did...because it's audacious and terrible, but with some kino fight scenes. Ironically, I think it's those same qualities that made him not want to try Jojo, fan screeching notwithstanding. Man, Haruhi was so aggressively mid, looking back, despite how much influence it had on productions to this day. I still see SOL shows that do band insert OPs in current year.

Episode 0 of Haruhi is one of my favourite pieces of anime.

Learning how to recommend things was tuogh, and vital. The movie I will play and refuse to elaborate is The Thing. It was *perfect*.

Dont worry Minh it happens to the best of us

Man I showed my group Gurren Laggan a while back and they all loved it like I thought they would but I was so nervous the whole time because a couple months prior to that another aquintance showed the group Kill La Kill, which is NOT the anime to show a group of people who don’t watch anime first. Shit got awkward real quick. You’ve got to ease them into the horniness of most anime’s slowly, even Yoko in Gurren Laggan was a bit much for that sometimes lol.

So I just left this to watch episode 0 of this. I don't know what Woolie was talking about it was amazing. I love how it just opens cold with no context and the cracks show immediately. Terrible acting combined with a language barrier is peak viewing experience, I almost feel like I should have turned off subtitles. Excited to watch the rest of it, if I can figure out broadcast order, as intended.

Hahah when Woolie started talking about the shows he "got a good way into" describes pretty much every series I've tried to get into, including Stone Ocean
