Aside from age-inappropriate or socially-controversial tags, I wouldn't recommend otaku culture and others that require prior knowledge to get the jokes or the story.

That's a tricky one. I think most anime stands on it's own and doesn't need you to watch the other ones.

Thinking back though; I didn't like Cowboy Bebop or Evangelion the first time I watched them ages ago, but I think that might just be because I'm older now and appreciate the more complicated and subtle stories.

Actually, I just thought of one. If you watch "Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid" before you've developed a strong "anime weirdness" filter and tolerance, you will definitely not enjoy it or find it funny.
