Well then let's go with a few non-mecha classics:
Genshiken - An anime about an anime club filled with Otaku.
Last Exile - Two young messengers live in a world filled with airships and wars.
Love Hina - Classic "harem" anime along with Tenchi Muyo. Love Hina manga > anime.
Gate Keepers - An intentionally silly and exciting magical/super power show.
Higurashi no naku koro ni - Mystery/horror. Interesting but some parts are gruesome.
Outlaw Star - Classic space adventure that's also mecha-less (also see Cowboy Bebop).
Fate/Stay Night - Battle/magical being anime
That's anime from several genres. Do any of those interest you?
