Watching A Place Further Than The Universe plus some positive experiences at around the time I first watched it made me appreciate certain types of travel and going outside.
My rating history reflected it. Originally, it’s an almost-masterpiece 9/10. Now it’s my #4 best overall and a regular to-rewatch.
A long time ago I watched shounen only, I didn’t know any better. I randomly started watching Gintama and I realised that I liked the non-action parts a lot. It made me interested in things that weren’t mostly action and was the first step of me getting into slice of life anime. And SOL made me more interested in daily life and existing. That sounds ridiculous but hey.
Weird recommendation, but Blood Blockade Battlefront. Kinda action-y, but also largely surreal urban fantasy slice of life. English dub is fantastic, mainly due to Zapps voice actor.
