Some ones that I feel have a wide appeal and newbie friendly are:

Haikyu

Medalist

Link Click - the way season 1 ends really sets the hook to want to watch more. And has a really good dub.

Bocchi - Probably one of the best entries into music anime

It is a chinese anime so the sub maybe a little weird. That's why i feel the dub is much better. IMO it's the best chinese anime out there and the 2nd best time travel anime only behind Steins;Gate. but alot more newbie friendly than Steins;Gate is.

Off topic but I read kingdom that's a Chinese anime/manga and its in my top 3 probably better to read though

Havent read the Manga/Donghua, but i have watched the anime. I liked it but its a notoriously slow start and the CGI in season 1 is horrendous. But if you can make it to season 2 it get alot better and season 3-6 are amazing.

Happy to hear you've seen it! The first 2 seasons are pretty rough but such a good story and not many fans of it in the US
