While I believe anime is diverse enough that everyone can find something they enjoy, I don’t believe there is any singular title that will appeal to everyone. Also, romance isn’t really my forte. With the caveats out of the way my top 3 romance anime are: Fruits Basket (2019-21 version) • Kaguya-sama: Love is War • Insomniacs After School. I may post an additional 2 after having more time to think.

The first manga I read? The Azumanga Daioh manga
I was about to say Yotsuba& but then I remembered I only seen a few clips of the manga from YouTube videos before I read the Azudaioh manga
I’m actually surprised Yotsuba never got an anime adaption.

Ooh, I thought I was a bit lonely on the whole "I don't like shonen battle anime" stuff aside from a few friends of mine- that's very relieving! XD
Yeah, as for FLCL, I just watch Season 1. Alternative was a bit cool, but nothing can top FLCL Classic (as I call it) to me. Especially the dub, it was amazing. "COME BACK TO LIIIIIIIFE!" "WAAAAAAAHHHH--" "MOOOOOCHYOOOOO" "AAAAAAAAAAAA-" ugh, I can't get it out of my head!Yeah, it can be a challenge sometimes to discuss anime if you were never really a fan of “The Big Three”. I think part of it for me was my intro/biggest early influence when it comes to anime were Star Blazers & Robotech. Though now I’m more into fantasy/supernatural genres & SOL/CGDCT.
I think the battle shonen I’ve seen the most of are My Hero Academia (glad it’s finally wrapping up) & Dragonball (had my fill of it after DBZ Kai & wish I had my time back from GT)

Was a three-volume original English-language manga called The Dreaming. I was unfamiliar with manga at the time (I was maybe twelve when I read it), but I read this particular story several times through and loved it. Ended up being a gateway into the medium for me.
I remember this one as well (nostalgia for my Tokyo Pop phase).

Welcome
Hope you find things to interest you here.
For me it was following the death of my parents that I started appreciating more reflective/emotional anime (the Fruits Basket remake & My Roommate is a Cat come to mind). Though I still tend to not be into most purely drama focused or “realistic” anime.

I’ve never been much into the shonen mega-series either (burned out on One Piece after about 150 episodes). Azumanga Daioh is one of my all time faves & my definitive SOL series. I found FLCL enjoyable but wish they’d stop trying to “catch lightning in a bottle” again, the sequels/follow-ups just don’t work.

I actually watched Green Snake before watching White Snake without realizing it was a sequel.

Everyone needs to make their own choices, but for me anime is one of the few things I continue to be interested in & enjoy for 40+ years. So I have no intention of giving it up regardless of what others think about it.

There’s at least a couple of us older anime fans who pop in here from time to time.-

I’ve always been more into anime than manga, but the manga series I really got into was Battle Angel Alita

You mentioned The Dangers in My Heart & romcoms as your favorites so I’ll recommend Insomniacs After School & Kubo Won’t Let Me Be Invisible. Some recent anime I don’t think get enough love:
Migi & Dali - yeah the humor is pretty cringe, but actually an interesting psychological murder mystery.
Raven of the Inner Palace - a lot of similarities to The Apothecary Diaries, but with supernatural elements.
What anime are you watching now?
