Not really, but I'll give anything a shot. 

Try this one out: https://myanimelist.net/manga/90125/Kaguya-sama_wa_Kokurasetai__Tensai-tachi_no_Renai_Zunousen

It's pretty good + funny.

Added on Crunchyroll. Sounds like one of those silly, insane shows that put people in hilarious misunderstandings.

I started watching the first two episodes of the new Fooly Cooly anime on Crunchy Roll but watching a 20 minutes anime with literally a commercial cut every 4 or 5 minutes or so is impossible and obviously made to annoy you and they succeeded in annoying me so I stopped and gave up.

Also I expected the song "Ride on Shooting Star" from the first Fooly Cooly and it was not there.

A subscription is $7 a month. Also there are adblockers that can lessen the ads. I think.

Well I don't give in to black mail. The whole "Pay us money and we'll fix a problem we artificially created in the first place for no other reason than to make you spit your cash" does not work well with me.

As for the ad blockers, I can't find a way to install one on my TV. Also I'm good with the anime available on Netflix, not the biggest catalog but still a few good shows I enjoyed.

So you expect anime for free, and no strings attached then? I agree their ads are annoying, and too damn long. But they have to make money to support the service somehow.

Oh yeah, while I'm here...

I could use some recommendations. Here's what I've loved in the past...

FMA: Brotherhood (Best Anime I've ever seen)
DBZ (Good for its time. Androids/Cell Saga probably still holds up well.)
Made in Abyss (Could one day surpass FMA if they do enough seasons.)
Hunter x Hunter (The chimera ants Story Arc was heartbreaking, and awesome at the same time)
Yu Yu Hakusho
Space Dandy
Mob Psycho 100
One Punch Man
Gurren Laggan
My Hero Acedemia (Not quite as epic as the other stuff on this list, but still a fine show)
That Time I was Reincarnated as a Slime
Ms. Kobayashi's Dragon Maid
Konosuba
Inuyasha (I still gotta finish this. I thought they just stopped doing episodes, but it has a final season now? Okay then!)
Outlaw Star
Wolf's Rain
Dragon Half OVA (Hilarious and perfect dubbing!)
OG Dragonball (I gotta finish seasons 4-5 still though)

Nice list! I'm glad to see more fans of Slime...was a really fun show that I enjoyed from beginning to end. 

It looks like you have multiple genres on your list, so I can recommend a few things. Not sure what's a turn-off for you so hopefully nothing below fits that bill.

Sakamoto Desu Ga - Basically a slice of life version of One Punch Man. It's hilarious.

Assassination Classroom - Very bizarre plot, but some interesting twists and a nice blend of humor and drama. When it goes for your heartstrings...oof.

Your Lie in April - Beautiful drama about musicians, very very emotional. Don't watch if you don't like to feel things. 

March Comes in like a Lion - This might be kind of a hard sell...its one of my favorite anime but its very slow paced and might not be everyone. It feels like a realistic drama with very human characters more than a typical 'anime'...honestly its one of those shows I can recommend even if you don't like anime as a medium.

Toradora - This is a romantic-comedy...but it has a sort-of 'gateway' status so its pretty accessible to people who don't have much experience with the genre. It's really amazing though...I've seen it 3 times and still have a hankering for another rewatch.

And while they're still ongoing so I can't fully recommend them yet, I'd say Kimetsu no Yaiba and Fire Force are worth a look-see. The former has a plot setup somewhat reminscent to Fullmetal Alchemist...and the latter seems really cool so far. Or hot. Hehehe.

Anyhoo, the season is underway! I dropped Sounan Desu Ka...it isn't bad but the humor doesn't really click with me. Might change my mind on it later if I'm bored though.

Highlights so far are: Kanata no Astra, Dr. Stone, Demon Daughter, Okaa-san Online, and Fire Force. I'm optimistic about the last one right now...despite hearing some negative things about the manga. I'll stick with it and make the judgment myself...or see if the anime fixes this problem entirely. So far it's pretty cool though.

Oh man, I did it again. I must be on fire tonight!

And not directed at anyone in particular...but if anyone has issues with the cast in Dr. Stone, I recommend watching till ep 5 or 6 to see if your impression changes. I know that's a long time to wait...but, vague spoilers...

Spoiler!
most of the cast is swapped out after the first story arc in favor of more interesting characters.

I can imagine you now, protesting at the register of the grocery store how they're just trying to extort money from you for the food you want despite being free when you just steal it.

Those all sound great! I looked around other sites, and a lot of those are well liked. 

Already watching Kimetsu no Yaiba. Forgot to add it to the list of stuff I liked, but damn if it isn't the best dark shonen since Hunter X Hunter. 

IDK WTF Fire Force is about, but I added it to my list already, since so many people seem to be singing its praises.

Hellsing Ultimate

Tiger and Bunny

Attack on Titan

The Devil is a Part-Timer

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex

Darker than Black

Death Parade

*Naruto/Naruto Shippuden* (Fillers galore)

Fate/Zero

Bought and read the Hellsing Manga ages ago. Manga was okay. Saw some episodes of the anime, which were infinitly better, but I already know the plot so won't bother. 

Tiger and Bunny sounds like a Buddy Cop movie, but Anime, and with superpowers. I'm in. 

Forgot to add Attack on Titan, and Devil is a Part Timer to my list of Anime I enjoy. But yeah, they are good. 

I tried GitS when it aired on Toonami. Wasn't a big fan. But maybe they aired a different series? Like how Full Metal Alchemist had two series, where one was okayish, and the other was godly? 

Darker than Black is kinda hard to understand what it's all about. Maybe I'll get the idea when I see a few episodes. I'll at least give it the old three episode try. 

Death Parade gets added simply because Madhouse is insanity with its animation. 

Gah! Used to be subbed to Shonen Jump back in the day, when it first came to the USA. Naruto was good, but I just didn't like it. Got up to the start of the Arc where the sand kid shows up. It just came off as a less creative Dragonball (OG not Z), with really slow pacing. 

Somebody already spoiled the big reveal of Fate/Zero for me. You know who is King Arthur.
