I have watched a lot of the studio Ghibli stuff but not sure what series to start on, looking for recommendations

Definitely do NOT recommend Perfect Blue right out the gate for someone that only saw a few Ghibli films.

Its a great movie, and one that has a lot of cultural significance, but it is not a good pick for a first timer. It has some scenes that are intentionally extremely uncomfortable, and has a lot of cuts that can be hard to follow even for seasoned anime/film viewers.

This is kinda like recommending someone play Postal when someone asks what video games they should try if theyre starting out. While exaggerated a bit, it might be better to start them off with Mario instead.

You must not have finished readding his comment, in the last paragraph dude is recommending hentia with good action and story.
