Sure! I would recommend Hayao Miyazaki's stuff. Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, Kiki's Delivery Service, and My Nieghbor Totoro, roughly in that order. I haven't watched the dubbed version of Mononoke, but it features some well-known American actors and is supposed to be pretty good. In general, though, the Japanese voice actors deliver a better performance, even though you can't understand what they're saying. I guess you hafta experience it for yourself. These are all feature-length films, as opposed to anime series, so they don't require a significant time investment or consistent interest level. Or enough money to get the whole set
