Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.

Dungeon Meshi is good because it's Dune for DnD nerds.
You go in expecting a light-hearted fantasy cooking show and then it slams you with a masterclasss in worldbuilding, and soon you're knee deep in ecology, politics and culture; and thinking about how all these things intersect and affect each other. It's catnip for communists.
I like it better than Frieren just because it's a more coherent/focused story- Frieren can get a bit monster-of-the-week/shonen tournament arc at times, which I guess some people would consider a strength in its variety but that's kinda not for me. (Also I have some qualms with the way the demons are portrayed in Frieren).
