  • I’ll give you two suggestions at opposite ends of the spectrum:

    • Neon Genesis Evangelion is a wonderful show. It starts out as a giant robot series, but then moves in on examining how the characters are broken mentally (as in, they’re already broken, not let’s break stable people). Does have a tendency to depress people, but they generally feel it was a good experience.
    • Just about any Studio Ghibli movie. Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, Princess Mononoke, Castle in the Sky, My Neighbor Totoro, Kiki’s Delivery Service, Howl’s Moving Castle. Some of these are more kids movies, but adults love them. Others have more adult themes. Stick to the ones directed by Hayao Miazaki. Warning: Grave of the Fireflys will make you cry and leave you devastated.
