Seeing as how the man gave us Psycho Pass and Gaim, which are some of the best in their genre, he has already won me over as being one of the only few people currently producing good stuff in Japan.

Sorry, but I feel that 90% of the anime coming out these days is utter crap. Most of it is just recycled stories with new skins, some stupid romance type that utilizes all of the same tropes, or something that deals with school girls.

For me, Psycho Pass and Tiger & Bunny are the only original anime titles (meaning no sequels/spinoffs/prequels/manga adaptations) released since 2010 that I found to be good. That's not to say everything outside of those suck, but there just isn't anything else I feel the need to ever watch a second time, provided I even finished it the first time.

Well, while we're on the subject of magical girl shows, if that's something she's into, Heartcatch Precure can be accurately described as the knees of several bees. It's quite good.

On another subject, I've started Stardust Crusaders. 2 episodes in. I don't know what it is, but I kinda like this one already. Maybe seeing Joseph as an old man is just fun.

Also started Welcome to the NHK. Only watched three episodes thus far, but I like it.

Couple of airing series finished recently (bunch others ending this week). 3-gatsu no Lion is one of the best shows (certainly one of the best seasonal anime period) I've seen in a while. I'm really glad it's getting a second season.

Meanwhile, Demi-chan wa Kataritai was something. I really didn't end up enjoying the back half as much as the beginning few episodes. It wasn't bad, just...I dunno, as social-commentary-through-monster-girls go, it didn't feel like it had that much to say. Kind of shallow in that respect, perhaps due to how few there were and the shades of harem they decided to throw into it. Maybe I'll enjoy the manga more.

Have I mentioned I hate that series? I have? Well that's good, because I hate Madoka Magica. A lot.

For some reason I now want to know what kind of porn that manic-depressive looks up, I think something is wrong with me.

As for sugguestions as long as it doesn't matter on dub or sub: CardCaptors (still love the dub), School Lives (a little girl like her will love it), G Gundam, Gaiking Legend of Daikyumaru, Trigun, One Punch Man, Machine Robo Rescue, Case Closed, My Hero Academia, Neuro: Supernatural Detective, Deltora Quest (its better if you didn't read the books when viewing as some things are annoying), Power Stone (simple show), Any Digimon series, Genocyber, Hell Girl, Berserk, Overlord, Devil Lady, Elfen Lied, Black Lagoon, Garo, Death Parade. Apocalypse Zero, Ninja Ressurection, Violence Jack, Tokyo Ghoul, Karas, Corpse Party, Black Butler

imo Stardust Crusaders is pretty boring as it takes a bit too long but if you can get through the first half then you're in for a treat

Filler. That's it really, they kept adding more and more filler. Also Naruto's kid is getting his own show too. Gotta milk that cow as much as possible

It depends on what she is into? For Shojo (Anime for young girls), I think Magic Knight Rayearth, Sailor Moon, Princess Knight, Fruits Basket, Denno Coil and Shugo Chara are some pretty good choices for a seven year old girl. If you want something Shonen related, I think Deltora Quest, Astro Boy, Zatch Bell! and Shaman King are pretty good too for kids if you want to look outside of DBZ, Digimon and Pokemon.

For movies, Studio Ghibli movies are always good for younger kids and I would recommended Castle in the Sky, Spirited Away, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind and My Neighbor Totoro if she has not seen those already. Non Studio Ghibli movies, I would recommended would be Night on the Galactic Railroad and Summer Wars (They are both rated PG)

[Annuga]

On the second to last episode of Bungou Stray Dogs. I recommend it to anyone but Gosei's niece, she's too young for it

[Guyver Spawn]

Has your niece seen any PG-13 or R rated movies? If she can handle blood, nudity and swearing in most PG-13 movies, there is a lot of Shonen and Shojo anime that she could probably like. PG-13 movies over the years have become more violent since Kong: Skull Island had some pretty blood scenes.
