Anime you liked but can't recommend to people?

You've probably seen some shows you're not proud of liking or some shows that are so out of the box that you wonder if anyone except the inner circle of anime watchers would ever watch it. I have few grouped on the reasons.

First..... The Monegatari series, Mawaru penguindrum and Kara no kyoukai. Because they all dabble in some heavy topics like psychology, philosophy and symbolism and they also come the whole package to confuse you with trippy animation, non chronological story telling and leaving a lot for the watchers to speculate on. I literally cannot tell you what Mawaru penguindrum was all about except it had penguins and drama and a lot of supernatural elements. Boogiepop might have been here if was any good. Monegatari is the easiest to understand among them but those pervy scenes in bake make me really hesitant to ever tell someone to watch it.

Next there's the pervy shows you never want anyone in real life finding out you watched. They are Kissxsis, Prison school, Cross ange: Tenshi to ryuu no rondo and Keijo.Cross ange is possibly the trashiest show to ever exist but under that trash and sandwitched beteeen the borderline yuri hentai scenes is a story like I actual grew to like. And keijo despite it seeming like a joke at first, is a super legit sports anime with great animation.

One last reason is how dark they are.....Ajin, Made in abyss, and movies lik grave of the fireflies and in this corner of the world are entirely or have scenes which can really fuck up a person if they aren't really hard hearted.
 
i never knew ajin and made in abyss are dark.
after reading killing stalking, i got a new definition for dark.
 
Usually the ones that have lot of pervs scene like City Hunter, but i'll still recommend it to male reader, only not recommend it to female reader
 
As you said if the anime is strange or pervy(intentionally or not) or dark and violent. So I guess Bakemonogatari, Kill la Kill, Gintama, Higurashi, High School DxD.

I think higurashi would be fine. It's dark enough to be a good watch but not too dark.

It's pretty violent to be honest and the starting episode itself is actually kinda moe. Also while I love the anime it doesn't look good.

Oh yea I forgot about the nail scene and some other stuff. I actually didn't like higurashi the first time I saw it because someone said it was scary and I was looking for a horror anime at the time. Another example why having preconceived notions are bad for your enjoyment.

Yeah true it's more of a thriller/psychological anime. I had zero expectations going into it to be honest my sis and I randomly picked it looking at its popularity and score in MAL and we really liked it.
