I've only been into anime for a few years (bought Ghost in the Shell at a 5 for $20 pawn shop sale, but didn't know anything about it), so I have a lot of catching up to do, and my viewing is eclectic to the extreme. Just finished the first Ranma season, and starting on the second. You can definitely see the recurring themes, starting with the character designs, the relationships, the extended family, and the comic relief characters. I'd start in on Inuyasha, but I'm afraid.
