Steins;Gate (correction: episode 8 unfortunately has >!Okarin!< grope >!Luka!< because he doesn’t believe that they’re actually >!a girl in this worldline!<. Everyone rightfully calls him out for being a creepass)
Castlevania (shut up yes it is)
Vivy: Fluorite Eyes Song
Violet Evergarden (edit: NOT THE MOVIE)
Hyouka (skip the ova)
Belle
[Redacted]
Baccano
Deca-dence (I think)
Trigun
Akudama Drive
ACCA: 13 Territory Inspection Dept.
Fullmetal Alchemist
Spy Family
#Mushishi
5 Centimeters Per Second
Afro Samurai
Your Lie In April
Nichijou
Odd Taxi
Cowboy Bebop
Canaan
Sk8 the Infinity (arguably I guess because Adam is a creepass)
A Place Further Than The Universe
Supercrooks
Bocchi the Rock
House of Five Leaves
Weathering With You
#Haibane Renmei
Thus concludes the exhaustive list of animes I watched where I didn’t have to put up with any sexualization of minors
If you only take one anime from this list, let it be Mushishi
I wish I’d seen Haibane Renmei by the time I initially made this list. Watch that too!
I learned my lesson way back when I watched Gate. I went into the forums expecting other people to share my opinion that the show would have been much better without the 970 year old demigod trapped in the body of a 12 year old girl. I did not expect that character to be everyone’s favorite. Made me feel sick.
Is this not regarded as glorifying unhealthy relationships?

The deaf girl falls in love with a boy who bullies her so much that her mom takes her out of the school because of the bullying - which includes her bleeding and having a permanent scar, and the repeated destruction of her expensive medical equipment. She confesses her love to the creep even before he apologizes (which he only does after he’s been ostracized for years for bullying her). She also chooses to hang around (even alone) with another girl who is actively still bullying her.
“moon” scene happens very early, while the main character is still extremely creepy. Bullies are vastly more likely to commit partner violence: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapediatrics/article-abstract/1107602
The idea that bad-boys can be fixed by a loving girlfriend or wife, is toxic.
The psychotic girl is allowed to hang around almost all the time, by everyone, even after the video.

You should add Kino’s Journey to that list (both the old one and the 2017 remake/sequel).
Very similar chill traveler vibes to Mushishi
I definitely second Kino’s journey. Fantastic little slice of life.
Vinland Saga
Never visit bocchi the rock fan pages tho

Psychopass?
One of my favorites…. Just… avoid season 2
Treat it like a fanfic
Cory in the House
Airplane instruction videos from the 80s
Mushishi is honestly just beautiful, definitely one of my favorites.
Samurai champloo
Moomin
Durarara!!
Monster.
IMO one of the best stories out there, not just anime.
I’ll add my favorite, Ergo Proxy to your list

Man I left reddit to avoid these long drawn out internet arguments
Fuck everyone who’s ever been a bully because any relationship they’re in is necessarily inherently unhealthy, and fuck A Silent Voice I guess
I can’t be the only one that’s bothered by the fact that this list is not sorted alphabetically
It is sorted chronologically, in the order that I watched them
