The scope and ambition of certain animes like Legend of the Galactic Heroes and Berserk I can appreciate. I was never a weeb, but I barely watch any anime these days. My kids got me to watch Demon Hunter (which I've only seen like a single movie of and didn't see the point) and My Hero Academia which is also not my cup of tea.

Studio Ghibli is pretty good, though. I like the depth, but sometimes they are so abstract and ethereal that my brain decides I'm already asleep and I just nod off. It's usually worth it to watch a few times to try to get everything. Princess Mononoke was really a struggle. It's a great anime, but I had to watch it a good 6+ times before I could stay awake through it.
