I'd suggest Monster or Great Teacher Onizuka.

Rurouni Kenshin would probably also be a good starter. All of the series mentioned so far are very long though.

If you think those are good, read Vagabond, Claymore, and Berserk. You'll wet yourself at how godly they are compared to naruto and bleach.

If would be good to post what kind anime you like. I mean I might think a series thats got lots of romance and school life is good place to start but if you dont like that kind of stuff it wouldnt be a good place for you to start.
