While I don’t know if “following some social media feeds without being signed up for their platform” is “avoiding some of the worst parts” or just “only encountering worst parts” (given that among other things I can’t make direct responses to anything), I have happened to see Bob Clark, whose weblog posts on Star Wars were how I first became aware of him, mention he was dipping into Macross for what he said was the first time with an aim towards watching its 1980s theatrical adaptation, “Do You Remember Love?” That Clark takes a measured interest in anime also gets my attention; that he’s somewhere in between “all or nothing” (and I’m kind of close to the high-end extreme myself) may add to the feeling of “a valuable perspective.”
