That's like saying you don't get movies, or cartoons. You're just not watching the genres you'd like.
Ok, what would you recommend? If it helps, the stuff I did like was the promised neverland, chainsaw man, and some of full metal alchemist.
Im gonna suggest two slightly different anime from everyone else. Black Lagoon and Saga of Tanya the evil.
Black Lagoon is basically a show about some mercs in south east asia during the 90s, and the weird shit they get up to also it can be rather melancholy at times.
Saga of Tanya the evil is about some poor bastard who picks a fight with a god and promptly gets reincarnated as a little girl in WW1 Germany, where they proceed to succeed downwards into a frontline role when they just want to be a rear line officer. Also they commit technically not a warcrimes.
Start with cowboy bebop.
I see this recommended all the time to people just getting into anime, but I've found that if someone doesn't get anime they really won't mesh with a hyperviolent and slow paced slice-of-life. I think it's the same thing as people that insist Akria (or buckaroo banzai) makes sense - once you're on your 30th rewatch, have the manga and read enough reviews about it, you lose the perspective of someone new discovering it for the first time.
Said as someone who dismissed anime for years because I figured it was all self indulgent wank like bebop (I love it now, but boy is it not a great intro to the genre)
Why is this so good?
I'm not a huge anime buff but try more mature ones. Gantz and Tokio ghoul come to mind.
The Tokyo Ghoul anime post-s1 is a rushed mess lol.
Which is a shame cuz the manga is fucking fantastic
One punch man, samurai champloo, cowboy bebop, and trigun are great action shows
Darker than black is a real good one along those lines, full dub too
