I enjoy a bit of anime, but I don’t follow all the news and shows - I just pick up stuff by recommendations or a bit of searching.
So, people who actually know what they’re talking about - are any of these actually good? Are any so bad they’re worth completely avoiding? Any of them have particularly off-putting / offensive “fan service”?
Teppen!!!,

Black Lagoon,
Akatsuki no Yona,

Appleseed
Cool, I’ll give the dub a go on that then!
(It might be blasphemy, but the dub of Spirited Away is far better than the original IMO, so I’m not morally opposed to the idea)
If I can blaspheme with you I honestly generally prefer dubbed to subbed across the board. Bias aside, Black Lagoon really is a special case where you’re really watching two different shows in dubbed vs. subbed. The dubbed voices are so excellent and the English dialogue is so ingrained with the show’s identity that you’re really missing a large part of the show without them. It’s kind of an interesting case where it actually fits the substance of the story better anyway–the characters are canonically speaking English, and the fact that most of them don’t speak Japanese is actually an essential plot point through one of the arcs.
Cool, I’ll give it a twirl for sure … I can’t stand the dubbed Akira though, so it’s not a blanket ban for me, lol
