Tentacle rape hentai has legitimate artistic roots.

That said, you really ought to ask her what she likes. She'll be touched that you have asked her to give you an introduction to anime.

Personally, I really like some of the stuff they show on the Cartoon Network--Naruto, Bleach, Trinity Blood. Of course, this usually means I have to stay up late on Saturdays. C'est la vie. It is a good place to start, and figure out what about anime you like--for instance, on some shows, the animation annoys me.

I wouldn't necessarily start poking around the manga section at your local Barnes and Noble until you've established what appeals to you. The sheer selection available in manga these days can be a bit overwhelming.

I confess, the first show that turned me on to anime is a show called "Great Teacher Onizuka", originally from a Tokyopop manga series. It's about a young guy who is a virgin and yet also the leader of a menacing motorcycle gang, who decides to become a teacher in order to score with schoolgirls. Along the way, he finds out he's actually pretty good at what he does.

So you never know what will appeal to you. It might even be tentacle porn!
