Other recent and pretty much 100% safe recommendations include:
- My LOVE Story! (high school romance where nobody is a dense idiot for more than half an episode)
- Barakamon (famous calligrapher goes to live in a rural village to find inspiration. Finds it in local scamp)
- Flying Witch (Witch in training lives with relatives and has a cat. Perfect if you just want something relaxing. It is the comfiest show ever made)
- Snow White of the Red Hair (Fantasy romance between an intelligent, ambitious young woman and a prince who actually respects that and is pretty awesome)
- Sweetness and Lightning (Single dad makes yummy food for his young daughter)
- Keijo!!!!!!!! (this one is a joke. Do not even google Keijo. Anything with 8 exclamation marks in its title should be treated with extreme caution)
I tend to watch slice of life/comedy/romance over the Attack on Titans, Iron Blooded Orphans and Aldnoah Zeros of the world.
