    It is at least anime-adjacent. The actual definition of anime can get blurry sometimes and debates have been had over whether a show like Avatar the Last Airbender is an anime or not. I am glad that you enjoyed the show! When it comes to a form of media like anime, there are as many different types/genres of anime as there are any other medium, so it can get tough to find something that clicks right away. If somebody asks me for recommendations to start getting into anime, I usually ask them what kinds of shows/movies they already like and then pick anime in a similar genre or with similar themes.

    Also, Time of Eve sounds really interesting.

      …there are as many different types/genres of anime as there are any other medium

      So I have understood/assumed

      …it can get tough to find something that clicks right away

      I haven’t got difficulties to choose from movies or series.
      Then again, I have experience from them at my disposal to further know, what movies/series I like already, while in anime it’s the opposite.

      …what kinds of shows/movies they already like…

      Action, scifi, fantasy, drama, horror. A little comedy.

      .

      What it comes to anime - I may enjoy more realism-like material than Dragon Ball Z stuff 🤔
