I suggest Vampire Knight, mostly beause I like that series. BUT, there is an anime called Romeo x Juliet that you should probably show them. I haven't seen it though..
Oh, and I also suggest looking at some Hayao Miyazaki films like Spirited Away, Ponyo, and Kiki's delivery service. They got me into anime when I was around 5 or 6. smile

Well, even though it's not an anime, I would recommend the Ace Attorney games on DS, appealing to the NCIS/Law and Order. There are 5 games in all, and the first ones are being released for WiiWare 3nodding
It has a sort of anime style to it.

She may also like NANA or Paradise Kiss.

Since she likes basket ball and RomeoxJuliet I would suggest a series called Love*Com (Lovely Complex) It's about an abnormaly tall girl and an abnormaly short boy who were always grouped together in school because they reminded people of a famous comedy duo. The boy plays basketball and hilarity insues. All the episodes can be found on youtube and they are a fairly easy read. Also Case Closed would sate her NCIS and like things.

Well, since your friend likes Law and Order and NCIS, she may like mystery/suspence type anime such as Case Closed, Death Note, and Monster. Most of the Disney movies are based on classic stories/fairytales/legends/etc so she might also like animes based on classic stories such as Romeo x Juliet and Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo. The Miyazaki films would also be a good choice as well.
