Most of my exposure with anime was whatever was on Toonami and Adult Swim in the 2000s. I've not watched stuff like, Ghost In The Shell, Cowboy Bebop (only disjointed episodes out of order), Neon Genesis Evangelion, which I know are highly regarded.

I've seen just about every Miyazaki movie at this point. I've seen Akeria.

I'm sure there's more mainstream shows and non mainstream shows that I'm missing and would enjoy.

Thoughts?

Gotta watch Full Metal, far and away my favorite of all time.

The original came out while the Manga was still being written so it suffered the same way Game of Thrones did, to a much lesser extent but the ending is just waaaay out there. Brotherhood doesn't tell all them same backstory, but it starts and never slows down.

For first time viewing I always recommend Brotherhood. There is a fan made viewing order that starts with the original then switches to Brotherhood, but it would be kinda confusing as some plots that weren't from the Manga get laid down that just get dropped after the switch.
