ok thanks Ill prob check out Frieren next is it on Netflix too?

It's sadly Crunchyroll only. They may have lower res versions for you to watch without having to spend money.

For Netflix, I can always recommend Violet Evergarden. A slow paced drama that has some great imagery and at some points, will break your heart.

For action on Netflix, then definitely Cyberpunk Edgerunner. Great shit there too.

This is a minor update, but Insomics After School is probably the best anime I have personally watched since Kaguya-sama. I don't know what lures me to this rom-com stuff, but this show is Your Lie of April 2.0 level of good. I am on the last three to four episodes so wish me luck.

If you plan on actually giving anime a chance, Crunchyroll is absolutely worth it. I watch more of it than any other streaming service. Also, @SolidSnakeUS gave you some great recommendations. All those shows are bloody fantastic. Cowboy is probably a top 5 anime ever, GitS was one of the best modern done animes, FMA: Brotherhood is claimed by some the best anime ever made, and Frieren's world is LotR good.

Yes, finally a Insomniacs enjoyer! Such a chill and wholesome show. It aired at the same time with so many great shows so it kinda got lost in the masses. Also don't worry about it, rom-com stuff is the best :D

Yeah, the show is so simple, but I seriously enjoyed watching it (definitely the best since Kaguya, but it could be because of expectations). The problem though is that I was reading around on the internet and it should have already had a second season announcement...but nothing has come as of yet. I dislike reading manga, but this is definitely one show I will read if a season second isn't announced soon. There is one weird thing about the anime that I forgot to mention, it has a lot of weird feet scenes. Not sure why, but it was super weird because I started to notice due to how many of them were there lol.

Gotta cater to everyone's needs I guess.

It is not unheard of that some animes take some time between seasons. Especially animes of this nature. There is source material still available, but I think the first season got a solid ending, if this is all we get. We still haven't heard anything from Kaguya either. I remember readong that with rom-coms viewership/readership tends to go down after the main couple gets together, which I don't get.

This is a legitimate question, but is One Piece worth ever watching? I randomly came across some of the show's openings, which are catchy as hell. In the openings, it shows some awesome adventure settings and I am a sucker for adventure shows. So, yeah, should I waste all that time watching it or spend that same time watching a million other shows I haven't given a chance yet? 1000+ episodes definitely sound more like a chore than actual enjoyment.

If you have the time, then sure go for it, seems like a lot of people enjoy it and I'm sure it's not that popular by chance.

Personally I don't have the interest to watch that long of a show. I have only seen the live action OP.

There's also a remake of the anime coming probably some time next year by Wit Studios, so I might watch that.

I'm on episode 11 and people complained about the pace, yeah I see it. Quite slow overall and mini arcs within main arcs. I love that it's an adventure and supposedly a lot of the arcs have summary episodes, which saves a ton of time. I might go down that route, but so far Hunter x Hunter is done so much better. A bit unfair to compare because OP was made in 1997 and HxH was produced about ten years later. I paused OP because I decided to rewatch Fate/Stay Night: UBW. Such a quality show, on episode four and it captures me a ton.

Dandadan ending as it did pisses me off, I want 45 more episodes at this point.
