>watching
Jojo part 3.  There's a lot of classic stuff I still want to watch, like old Gundam and LOTGH.  Probably a lot of classics I haven't even heard of.
>suggest
Wizardry, 1991.  Fun proto-isekai adventure movie.  Unsho Ishizuka Jet Black, part 3 Joseph Joestar has a bit part.

tbh, I haven't watched much anime in several years, and now it's hard to even remember what I've seen aside from the most obvious shit everyone's already seen.  Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, Hellsing, GitS.

I was watching SlamDunk! a while ago, but I wanted to play games on my phone and draw in bed while I watched stuff, so stuff that's not in English kind of got pushed down the list.

Lewd AI female Polnareff makes me feel funny.

Key the Metal Idol

Robot girl tries to become human, it's got 'puters and it talks about identity. 

Also watched Haibane Renmei recently and loved it. I watched both the sub and dub, i think i'm growing more fond of amateurish voice acting in anime and jrpgs.

People sometimes compare Key to Serial Experiments Lain. I wanted to watch it at some point but haven't brought myself to doing it yet.

I've never seen it but I always thought the girl looked sad and a little confused.

She is. She is confused. Some even say retarded.

Mo Dao Zu Shi, it's a chinknime adapted from a novel taking place in a fictional wuxia setting with several clans watching over their respective region to exorcise ghosts and demons that appear because of "resentful energy"
The setting is a bit similar to Naruto since the various clans can attack and conquer each other, and the plot resembles Avatar the Last Airbender in that the most powerful clan wants to bully others around
the story follows Wei Wuxian who is adopted by one of the clan heads because he is the son of the clan head's crush but he had to marry a woman he doesn't love for politics
anyways Wei is a chaotic "free spirit" Black Star/Naruto/Onizuka kind of character but not as goofy, and he contrasts with Lan who is more mature, wise, always disciplined, always calm

I really enjoyed the first season and I'm now binging the second, but it turns out the original novel was a BL story, which doesn't at all transpire through the animated series because based CCP's censorship laws

Actually, the robot torso (Lain's "father") from the lesser-known PlayStation game is lifted directly from Key the Metal Idol, I believe Lain's character designer directly lampshades the fact in one of his artbooks. I've definitely seen crossover fanart of the two shows from around the time the anime came out, on one of those old ".ne.jp" sites, but I can't find it on the boorus and tracking it down on Google is totally out of the question as of two or three years ago.
It makes me a little sad to see all the anime I grew up with become the appropriated "nostalgia" of e-girl poseurs who find reprehensible everything about the original culture surrounding and generating those shows. I would rather old characters be lost to the sands of time rather than be Frankensteinishly revived and kept on life support with TikTok and ugly eating disorder fanarts.
