What about Ascendance of a Bookworm? It's an isekai about a soon-to-be librarian who dies and reincarnates into the body of a child of a poor family. She later finds out books are very rare for anyone but the nobles so she goes out to make books. It's actually really good and deals with things like family, nobility, and the process of making different kinds of books from old.

It's got three seasons + a fourth one coming out in 2026, no fanservice either. Also Myne (the main character) is such a gremlin.
This is definitely not a bias recommendation because I'm a big fan of this work no..

Bruh that series is for more advanced weebs. I doubt he'd know some of the anime-specific tropes there.

Nichijou or grand blue?
Something light, like natsume?
I just now SoL.

Yeah I was thinking that too. Kinda close to Dr Stone too, but more realistic-ish.
Maybe I'll wait for the next season first next year...

Giant Robo: The Day the Earth stood still is another anime I heartily recommend

 

[panzerkampfwagyu]

I support Steins;Gate

But for some original suggs:
Rozen Maiden 1&2 (S3 is weird in that it follows the manga canon, when the first two seasons diverged[for the better])
Uma Musume
Angel Beats
Date A Live
Gurren Lagann
Mob Psycho 100
Toriko
Yona of Dawn
Ya Boi Kongming
Alice to Zukoroh
Spice & Wolf
Serial Experiments Lain
Undead Unluck
Azumanga Daioh
Digimon 1-4
Bocchi the Rock

Erased

Second that

Some fun lighthearted stuff:
Dorohedoro
Great Pretender
Kekkai Sensen (Blood Blockade Battlefront)

More action, less chill, but not too much:
Mo Dao Zu Shi
Link Click
Deca-Dence

And even less chill:
Lord of Mysteries
Vinland Saga

Watch Yuru Camp with your dad and go have some nice father-son bonding session on a camping trip somewhere

@radstylix
Dude, you should update your dad reaction. I need to know his opinion about all the anime he already watched.

 

[cloutlord]

Really just depends what kinda guy your dad is. Tbh I think most dads I personally see are either one of two: tom clancy and bourbon kind of guy, or the artsy, probably musically inclined, still kinda young at heart but is actually middle aged

think about it like this
left side: dad who used to play guitar and is really into pink floyd
right side: dad who reads tom clancy, also really likes blade runner and Matt Damon

so heres some picks for both sides.

Left: FLCL, Lain, Evangelion, Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, other Ghibli films, K-on, Yojouhan Shinwa Taikei, Paranoia Agent, Ergo Proxy, Mushishi

Right: Monster, Black Lagoon, Berserk, vinland saga, erased, psycho pass, jin-rou
