I'll throw an underline on the name if it has a death/blood/demon/adult type of element to be aware of for younger kids (imo). I'll bold ones that should be cool as a story to watch with kids/teenagers/everyone if you like the story's concept. There are plenty I likely won't mention so if people request I can try to recommend others later.
- Akame ga Kill (should be in your preference due to Death Note and Parasyte...both are VERY good dark anime. Pretty sure there's a prequel story that SHOULD get made into an anime)
- Re:Zero (was mentioned and it has a current season releasing. Blood/death very often occurs as it is part of the concept...I'm not trying to ruin it)
- Oshi No Ko (has more seasons to come due to how good it is. IDK if this one is on Crunchyroll. Teenagers can watch this imo, Not ruining it but it's not as happy go lucky as first impressions give)
- Solo Leveling (seasons to come due to story being mostly done, great story/concept. More for mature watchers, I'd put this in the same lane as Parasyte)
- Arifureta: From Commonplace to World's Strongest (Current season releasing. Book/story is done so seasons to come. I'd put this in a more mature lane. My lady always says she has to keep getting over that the main character's primary love interest is actually older than she looks)
- Hell Girl (older, has multiple seasons. It's VERY appropriate for the halloween season, think of it as horror stories. I think of this a classic anime)
- Demon Slayer (book/story is done so seasons to come. Is extremely popular at the moment, likely will be an all-time great, You'll probably see someone dressed as a character for halloween this year if you haven't already in previous years...title is self-explanatory)
- Berserk (I'd underline it twice if I could, not for kids! Is an older anime but it's supposed to continue in the future. People consider this a classic even though it never finished)
- Angels of Death (good anime and interesting, enjoy it)
- Goblin Slayer (for a mature audience, if you know how goblins are said to make other goblins...or if you don't...you'll see it early in this one. Good story though so recommended)
- Hell's Paradise (honestly I still have to finish this, I just know it was good from the episodes I saw when it was releasing, probably more of a mature story honestly)
- Inuyashiki: Last Hero (the story concept is great. Main character is an old man. Has alien/robot aspect to it. I wish they'd continue it somehow)
- Kaiju No. 8 (is very popular because it's good and it will have more seasons. About monsters and humans that fight them)
- Claymore (old anime considered as an underrated classic that was not done justice as the written story was still in progress and they ended it differently. Wasn't drawn too badly to mind watching it in 2024. English dub also is fine to have on while doing stuff. Highly recommend as an old one)
- Cowboy Bebop (old anime that is a classic. There's a live/action version on Netflix. Only one season. Most people have seen/know about this already "See you Cowboy...")
- Dead Mount Death Play (interesting story, pretty sure it has seasons to come)
- Jobless Reincarnation (Book/story is done...and it's great...so more episodes to come. People mention it as questionable due to a grown man becoming a child and still being grown on the inside and having some questionable actions. In the end...it's not as bad as people make it out to be. I think the english dub makes the impression slightly worse.)
- Sword Art Online (currently releasing a side story...Gun Gale II...season. I'd say it's more for older kids and adults. Has many seasons AND a movie or two. Some people prefer specific seasons over the original story/season. The "Alicization" & "Gun Gale" seasons are VERY good, you could even watch them alone/first if you end up not liking the original/first season/story, but I'd watch everything in order. Is a good binge anime)
- Fire Force (good story, has seasons to come, has humor and action, It's in the lane of Fullmetal Alchemist...so plenty of people should like it. I think the english dub is good enough to not mind playing it)
- That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime (book/story is done...also great...so seasons to come. Funny, has action, doesn't really have much mature stuff imo to worry about your kids watching it. Has demons, angels, dragons, monsters, action, magic, pretty much everything. This would be perfect to watch on Saturday mornings if I were still a kid/teenager, chances are if you have kids into anime they already watch it/know about it)
- Reincarnation of a Bookworm (book/story recently finished so seasons to come. I'd put it in the lane of Spy x Family, which is cool to watch with your kids/teenagers. Builds a little slow, funny moments, some sad moments. It's not only about books but that's the main motivation of the main character. Main character is a little girl to let people know)
- KonoSuba (seasons to come, this one is funny and is good however I dunno if you want to let younger kids watch it. It's probably more cool to watch with teenagers due to heavy flirting...it's not that bad honestly but still idk how people raise their kids)
- Re:Monster (good anime, should get more seasons. More mature so not really for young kids but teenagers should be okay. Main character is a goblin...see what I said about Goblin Slayer for a specific aspect to be aware of)
- The Eminence in Shadow (story is still going and is good so seasons to come. Funny, action, magic, sword fighting. I'd say it's more for teenagers or older.)
- I Parry Everything (story is good. Only one season but story does not seem to be completed)
- Mashle: Magic and Muscles (funny, should be cool for all ages, isn't finished so should have more seasons to come)
- My Hero Academia (is currently releasing a season, and is almost finished. People say this is like "My Super High" movie, good for all ages, super hero kids, good for Saturday mornings)
- No Longer Allowed in Another World (funny, more of a teenage/adult anime imo due to story)
- One Piece (Yes it has over 1000 episodes, is STILL GOING, and updates on Saturday nights. HAS A LIVE/NOT ANIMATED SHOW ON NETFLIX...so maybe watch that first to get an idea. I even heard one of the intro songs play during the Yankee-Dodgers game in the stadium. First episodes are old...of course...but it is drawn and colored better in recent episodes. This one is likes to have filler episodes that hide character backstory/personality in them. This is one I really do not like the English dub/voice acting but other people don't mind it. You've probably seen people dressed like this for halloween for years already)
- Reincarnated as a Sword (I think this one is good for most people & families, main character is a little girl)
- Shangri-La Frontier (currently releasing a season. I think this one is also good for most people however might be more cool to watch with older kids just because of story)
- Food Wars (IS ABOUT COOKING...lol. A good story, it's not done, english dub is fine too. Not trying to ruin it but I think it's family friendly. It's funny and serious, might even get your kids interested in cooking/helping you cook. I'd watch an episode first if you are a parent and you'll be able to decide if your kid can watch it, pay attention to when people eat/taste test the food...that's the questionable part why I say parents should watch it first as this happens throughout the anime)
- Dr. Stone (Story is a great concept. There isn't much fighting to worry about as that's not a main factor. Smart kids should like this one, good for Saturday mornings)
- To Your Eternity (More of a serious story. Concept is interesting. I'd put it more for older audiences due to story).
- Wistoria: Wand and Sword (good story, kids could watch this also, only one season but there will be more)
- The Apothecary Diaries (good story, more mature for thinkers)
- Yatagarasu: The Raven Does Not Choose Its Master (more of a mature but good story)
- Sasaki and Peeps (funny, interesting story that is still going. main character is a grown man so kids might not get into it right away)
- Bleach (current season releasing. Has plenty of episodes. Has filler episodes too. It's in the area of classic and iconic for anime...like DragonBall...so it's pretty popular. The new episodes are drawn/colored much better btw)
- The Rising of the Shield Hero (good story, story isn't finished, probably not for younger kids)
- Blue Exorcist (current season releasing. Good story, has demons and magic, in the popular category...imo good to watch with mature kids/teenagers)
- Samurai Champloo (classic anime. I'd say it was drawn at the start of the newer style of anime so it holds up well visually today. English dub is good so you don't need subtitles really)
That's enough...more than enough maybe. Have more but I'd say these are ones people can watch without too much worrying of the story being bad.
Mob Psycho is great also.
