Blessed be the LORD my strength which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:
My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.

Maokun (post: 1589004) wrote:Also, I might be wrong on this but I believe that as a girl, new to anime, your friend will find easier to identify with Makoto from The Girl Who Leapt Through Time than with Summer Wars's Kenji. I mean, do show her Summer Wars but after TGWLTT [SIZE="1"][color="Gray"](which is the better movie anyway *coughs*)[/color][/SIZE]

Birdy is another good one as it's sort of a sci-fi american superhero style show.

Also, are there any sites that are legally streaming the dubs of either Baccano! or Durarara!!? Cuz if so, i might to either of those.
rocklobster (post: 1589409) wrote:Actually, Romeo X Juliet should be watched dubbed. The source material was in English anyway.

Cianter (post: 1589585) wrote:I dunno, Fruits Basket was the first Shojo anime I ever saw, and I loved it, but that might just be me:). Speaking of Shojo, maybe Princess Tutu? But, I'm not really sure if she would like that, and I don't have Netflix, so I'm not sure that you would be able to get it there...
FllMtl Novelist wrote:Maybe I'm biased since Summer Wars is my favorite of the two movies, but despite being a girl I identify far more with Kenji's awkwardness--and his reaction to the gigantic sprawling Jinnouchi family--than Makoto's boy troubles.
Atria wrote:Honestly, if she's a fan of Avatar, I'd skip all of those and go with Seirei no Moribito. Not only does it have the 'bridging between the spiritual and real worlds' thing, but it has great characters, some good action, has some of the more slice-of-life that goes on in Avatar's more laid-back episodes, and definitely isn't more than a PG-13 rating.

she loves the Big Bang Theory
Does this help?
. I also got her into Doctor Who recently and she LOVES it.
