I'm a complete newfag here I'm looking for old anime that are considered 4cuck oldfag classics. I'm not talking about niche shit, I'm talking about THE classics, like the most popular ones that everyone already knows about, answer assuming I know absoulutely nothing about anime whatsoever.

I'm not a huge anime fan but I'm not a retard htsm who leaks about it, I've watched a couple in the past. I don't wanna spend thousands of hours of my life watching anime, I just wanna run through all the ones that are the best of the best so I don't miss out
