<font color="green">Im sorry to you guys out there that like DBZ & Pok�mon, but I hate them. I cant stand DBZ the fighting sucks, the storyline sucks. Everything XD And as for Pok�mon, whats the point of catching animals and putting them into balls. There isnt enough action in Pok�mon, its more like a kid kinda cartoon, but I would rather watch Pok�mon than DBZ.

<table><tr><td>
I don't like DBZ.. I have all respect for people who do though, whatever floats you boat ^^;
I think it has a bad storyline.. And the scenes where they fight, or have to wait for something important, always gets delayed and last for like.. 10-15 episodes.
Especially that battle with Freeza.. That was horrible o.O I skipped watching for about 3 weeks and they were still fighting. (or actually, just standing in front of eachother, threatening to fight / gathering energy / talking to themselves / etc.. )

Uh.. That's just my opinion ^^;

Yep, concerning Dragonball, better read the manga. No filler episodes and you have the possibilities to skip pages. *evillaughter*

But about Pokemon:
Well, there is no point. There does not have to be a point. But Pokemon makes something important possible. Merchandise. And cute stuffed animals, a card game, video games... Hm. So there is a point, money. *evillaughter*

Voltage Fighter Gowgizer(sp) totally sucked! It had the most poorly written story ever in an anime. Even pornos get better writing.

I'm voting Shinzo, Pokemon,Dragon Ball Z,Digimon and Flint The Time Decetive.

Hey, do manga count? I have read the first volume of Chiralty and am impressed how a mangaka can use a 'story' about (what was it anyway?) to show much flesh of the girls that seem to be way more numbered than the men anyway... and wear tighter or less clothing... and there is indeed one boy that looks not bad. He dies quickly. There is a silly story (an excuse), there is a lot of flesh a naked black haired villain that defies all rules of taste and anatomy. *shudders* This was so empty. If you know what I mean. Satoshi Urushihara... :notgood:

eh...I'm not a big fan of Kitty Kitty Fancia (its way to......kawaii)

I like the DBZ anime....but HATE the manga...its defenatly not ment for still frames.

Pokemon.....*shivers*

I didn't think Shinzo was THAT bad.... it wasnt good, but it's not like.... DBZ.... now there's something just so devoid of plot it hurts. Always "charging up" and such... hitting, then talking about it FOR 5 GODDAM MINUTES! it's just sooo... bad... --;
However, I have found it is a good cure for insomnia..... ;)

Note to Natsumi: You kinda based Pokemon for being a kiddie anime, but you have Di Gi Charat in your Sig/Avatar........ just an observation.

I thouroughly did not enjoy Angel Sanctuary O_O

worst ever that yu-gi-oh or whatever its on skyone at the moment a cross between pokemon and a card game it sucks hardcore

<font color="green">Okay, so, both Pokemon and Digi Charat may be "kiddie" but at least Digi Charat is way better than Pokemon.

I started out really liking DBZ a lot, but then I realized there were a ton of better stuff out there, so now I think DBZ sucks pretty bad. I can't stand Sailor Moon either.

Some of the worst anime I've ever seen are digimon, monster ranchers, and dragonball z. I used to read the dragonball z manga as a kid and I loved it. The art was great and even though the plot sucked, it was the best stuff around. The art in the manga is just way better than the anime, and at least the manga didn't take forever to kill freeza or cell. Still, dragonball z is old stuff.

<FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#113399" FACE="mirror">Um i would have to say...all those crappy animal shoes, you konw theres like 10 of them by now: pokemon monster ranch digimon (god what a rip) and many more. anyway the real sailor moon isnt like the shows...its better. you should look up some of the old stuff, you might like it....i dont even know who i am talking to...</FONT>

Angel Sanctuary. Hmm... I have a lot of fun with the manga, when able to ignore that Kaori Yuki does not always draw as well as she can, the characters are all kind of weird and so on... Hehe. I still have to watch the anime. Can't imagine them to have managed to put everything and every character in there.

pokeshiat and digishiat... DBZ was cool

I thouroughly did not enjoy Angel Sanctuary O_O

Its also a diffrence between disliking the anime and liking the pics and art :uh?:
There are alot of very wel drawend anime but it has such a bad storyline noone watch it. :o

mmkay now abouth me what I hate most, I think il pick dbz

I can't stand pokemon or digimon and all those other shows that try and copy off of them. But I really don't mind DBZ, it is just ok.

<font color=2670A8>Gasaraki. I can not believe it used to be, like, my favorite. o_x. The episodes are so boring. No offence to people who like it, though.

DragonBall Z is probaly the worst.. .a bad runner up is Pok�mon
I really dislike dbz... it makes no sense.. all they do is moan and groan for like 10 weeks long and then somebody get's killed or transforms into something ultra hyper something o_o
Pokemon.... I dun really need to explain it do I?
Shinzo isn't all bad.., but it's just some kid anime though ;)

I just want to fall asleep when i watch these shows. Especially the 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 5th of those shows.

How is Love Hina the worst? Come on, I love that series, especially the first time I watched it.^^ I admit that the mecha turtles and the secret mecha society are ridiculous, but the story is actually really good. I read the manga first, and while the anime isn't as good as the manga, it was still great fun. Keitaro and Narusegawa make the cutest couple.

I don't like dbz, but the movies are fine, some of them at least. Pokemon is just a waste of time, digimon the same, but really the worst anime of all time is that Jubei-chan Lovely Eyepatch. That's just CRAP! Worse than crap! Do NOT watch it and if somebody wants to give it to you, beat the crap outta him!

<font color="#ff69b4">Love Hina is really cool *has the manga* =D Its funny how Naru can get a quick temper.

I can't stand Pokemon or Sailor Moon. Both are horrible.

ok, dbz has a bad storyline, and the transforming is redundant, but the characters are so goddamn fukking cool

btw i really wanna buy some trigun dvd volumes!
hehe look at my avatar, legato bluesummers i think his name is

i'd have to say that, outlaw star, digimon, pokemon, just doesn't light my spark :notgood:

I don't like digimon,because the monster is very useless not like pokemon.;)

actually the story line is weak, but the fighting is not. pokemon iz gay and meant for 5 year olds.

peace

I'll say it: I don't like Card Captor Sakura... it reminded me to much of Sailor Moon.

I also do not like Digimon...

The Trigun anime kinda dissappointed me... and the dubbed voices(mainly Vash's) were awful. I suggest reading the manga... much more graphic... and if you are one of those Vash/Midvalley/Wolfwood lovers... they(in my opinion, anyway) look way better in the manga.

Then again, these are MY opinions... they don't really matter.

Like they say... everyone is entitled to their own wrong opinion...

DBZ and Sailor moon Really suck @$$. the pokemon cartoon show sucks, but the games can be fun.

Well, i hate digimon, also all character.The story is toooo boring:o .

hates Pokemon, Digimon, everything that deals with 'mon' stuff.. wtf? I hate'em all... oh and Yugi oh... Beyblade... too childish... they didnt even deserved to be on anime world either.. baaahhh XD

i like DBZ but i hate Digimon and Pokemon i think that those two shows are just plain stupid

who the fuck revived this one when there was another more recent one already started. -_-

Yu-gi-oh (Or however that lame name is spelled) is teeeeerrible. Man,'' believe in the heart of the cards?'' Go have yourself checked dude....

Really hate Bakabon...

I think this anime is very crazy & full of stupidity...

Love Hina was awesome, it's definitely far from the worse. Uh, Pokemon/Digimon/Beyblade/Yu-Gi-Oh... all that crap they call anime.

Pokemon, Digimon, Beyblade, DBZ and Yu-Gi-Oh

Not for me....

*twitches*

Tenchi Muyo. Period.

dot Hack was terrible

and pokemon

B'damen seriously WTF fighting with pinballs? Beyblade fighting Spinning tops..... right

Amazing Nurse Nanako
The Tekken Movie
Battle Arena Toshinden

those anime I detest. Though the ones I dislike...I would go with Love Hina as well. I don't know why, but it seems like every manga akamatsu ken writes, I love it. But once it becomes an anime...boy...it just leaves a lot to be desired. From the inappropriate moments of "comedy" to the repetitive nature of naru and keitaro's relationship, and the lack of real manga continuity...it just sucks...same goes to a degree with the mahou sensei negima franchise...


dot Hack was terrible
.hack legend was probably one of the worst things I've ever seen as far as milking a good franchise for all it's worth. .hack//sign was love it or hate it. I personally fell in love with it. From the amazing and clean animation, to the original story and engrossing plot, to the characters that each had their own motives. In a sense, while watching .hack//sign, I felt like a character of the "guilds" that were created, and I felt like a member of the audience as we got a true background of who the characters were on the outside of the net. I will say this though
if all you like is action, you will probably hate sign
but for a anime with a solid story, engrossing characters, one of the best soundtracks I have heard to date, I really recommend this title. If you have patience, by episode 5, you are hooked.

Fortunatly i never saw shit anime from start to end. Just saw small amount of pokeemen and also you gui ho, add digimon to it. Not interresting.

I like Dragon Ball, DBZ was ok, but i hate GT. I did not liked Capitain tsubasa too, but it was fun.

Tenchi Muyo. Period.

The one I hated was the one with that grey haired kid. I give that series a 2/10

the one I like
lemme guess...not enough action right? I don't think .hack//sign was ever supposed to be action packed or oriented, but I think it was always supposed to progress as an anime story however, and it did that well...and I loved how every scene had an accompanying background sound to it. It is a good show to me...probably one of the best...it is definatley on my top 30 anime of all time

It had no action, the story didn't progress, and this show with out a doubt takes first place for the worst ending in anime history.

if you watched for 3 episodes, there was very little story progression
you watch the full series, you see, actually, ever single character story and plot in the entire anime...
seriously, stick with this title, it is an amazing anime...and too revolutionary, and I'm not saying that because I'm some sort of .hack//sign lover, it's pretty true. Give the anime at least 5 episodes, you want to watch more...because it's a personal anime...
and in that, it's nothing like naruto that it's 100 percent action and it's pretty boring and repetitive outside of that...
and if anything, for an anime animated in 2001, the art is probably some of the best I've seen. Also the music is some of the best I've heard in anime (and looking at over 100s of soundtracks of CDs around my apartment, that is a pretty big thing to say)

My personal worst anime that I've ever seen is Ninja Ressurection (the first two episodes)... it just seemed like it was trying to rip off Ninja Scroll by inserting monster-zombie-swordsman sex and violence... now in theory some of the violence was pretty flashy looking, but I realised that most of it copys various samurai and Ninja animes (like Ninja Scroll).

I've never seen the other 'episodes' on sale anywhere, so I don't actually know if they're hard to find or it got cancelled after the first two episodes.

Beyblade, s/CRY/ed >=|

I have watched the full story. What annoyed me was that after every episode, they kind of hinted that something exciting was going to happen (action, progression in the plot) and it never happened.

PS. I thought S-Cry_ed was great until the end where it fell apart. Especially episode 2 :D

The most tasteless, trivial piece of slop I have ever watched was Puni Puni Poemi. I loathe that show with a vengence. Lucky for me it's only an OVA. But I still wonder why I even subjected myself to watching it.

I have no doubt that there are people out there who would probably love it. Like.. every one who enjoys watching Excel Saga. And while I mention it I have to say I dislike that anime too. Shows that are just so amazingly random, have so much fanservice, have no content... well I just dislike them very strongly. And sadly I have no respect for people who think shows like that are the best thing there ever was and will be.

And this is where my slight tirade comes to a close.

Sailor Moon(Dubbed)-DiChead's version turned me off to anime for the longest time because of crappy voice acting.

Neon Eva.-Downloaded a couple of episodes and I got the impression that the writer had issues. . .and what do you know, I was right. Someone should have told him that having depression while writing is not a good thing.(Trust me, I know!) Anyway, I decided to just download the final two parts.(regular episode and end of eva). That had to be the worst ending I've ever seen in my life! I got the overall idea of the ending. . .after about two weeks! And Shinji. . .let me put this way. Do we want a little whining momma's boy as a hero or do we want someone who goes out and kick butt because he(or she) can? In reality Shinji would be someone most likely to bring a gun to school and use it! After watching what little that I could stand, I ended up with the impression of what a bad acid trip must be like.

What really ticks me off is that Hideaki Anno is going to do a 'retelling' of that bad acid trip called Neon Genesis Evangelion!

I hated .Hack, the twilight one, whatever it was called.
Seemed like a kind of incest overtone was there. Made me kinda sick.
Plus the pacing and stuff was terrible story telling wise.

BeyBlade, the newer Pokemon series, and DBZ does often cross the line too...
There's not many that take the piss as much as these do. >_<

Excel Saga.
was a love/hate thing for me. i loved the randomness and excel's character was priceless. the parodies were brilliant too.
HATED the repetitiveness and i was always thinking, why am i even watching this?, is this even going anywhere?. then on the last episode a plot development occurs, yay?

I've gotta say Inuyasha ... what a piece of crap... seriously I can't see where that thing is going... Ahhh lets not forget Beyblade, Rave Master and teh kind... those totally comercial animes that just wanna see if they can make it a big bussines like Yu Gi Oh ...

and so on..

The one thing that pissed me off the most in Yu Gi Oh was that Yu Gi had blonde spiked up hair with pink bits but he had a voice like James Earl Jones.
Man that pissed me off.

I hated FFShrine unlimited.

eh... yu gi oh...
i used to like a bit
but.. then it just git boring and repetitive =[

Advent Children, don't care if one can consider it Anime, I saw it as crase and just another way to milk a fanchise that was to popular to begin with.

too popular? wtf? is that a bad thing? lol

too popular? wtf? is that a bad thing? lol

Dont worry hes just one of those people who says they hate FF7 just so they dont come across as a fanboyish n00b.

I've got one that beats all...
Digimon... WTF was that supposed to be a slightly alterd version of Pokemon.

Fanboyish noob... Lol

You know, some of us actually have legitimate reasons for disliking everything FFVII related. Maybe you'd learn something if you dug up some old threads on the matter.

True, but Im not out to put others down to prove a point so I wont bother, Prak.

Right, so I'm a twit who likes Digimon and YGO, and I'm nostalgic about DBZ and Pokemon. 8D I loves 'em.

Dragonball GT was a pile of ass, though.

I absolutely loathe Fruits Basket and Ouran. MAR was also a piece of shit, from what little of it my friend forced me to watch.

I also can't stand shonen-ai manga and anime. Hardcore yaoi? Fine. But shonen-ai makes me die a little inside due to all the obnoxious and generic blond boys falling in love with tall dark and handsome. Please, give me some NOT boring gay content, and I may stop insulting that tripe that you call "gay romance".

The worst anime ever will most likely be something that most of us will never see since:

1. No US distributes will ever buy it and

2. It will never gain enough notoriety for most people to download it.

This being said, I severely disliked ‘Earth Girl Arjuna’.

which makes no sense seeing that ocean group and blue water dubbed the series and aired on Adult Swim on demand...

DragonBallGT can suck my cock.I mean really.It made Gohan look like a nerd.Goten look like a pussy.Trunks look like a fag(This is what I hated the most.Trunks was my MOST favorite charecter.)And it made Piccolo look weaker than Krillin.I can't belive the only charcters that had their shine was Goku and Vegeta.Don't get me wrong I like Vegeta and Goku but there was TOO MUCH Goku and Vegeta.Plus Majin Buu looks like a tub of 1000 fags rolled up into one.Uub is a noob.We don't see Gotenks(I was so fucking mad when goten and Trunks didn't fuse.)I like Dragonball Z MORE than GT.The only good thing about GT was Super 17(Underrated Villian finally got his shine)SSJ4 Goku and Vegeta(It would've been better if Vegeta was also a SSJ3).


The creators of GT can suck my nuts.

Voltage Fighter Gowgizer(sp) totally sucked! It had the most poorly written story ever in an anime. Even pornos get better writing.

I agree. It was also an atrocious Anime adaptation from the Fighting genre Video Game, and if only the game's artwork was spectactular as the other aspects of game overall, it might have stood a chance. Dismal failure, as it also is imputed to the bankruptcy of Technos Japan. T_T

Just for the record, it's Voltage Fighter Gowcaizer. =P

id have to say pokemon cuz the anime suked but the pokemon special manga i thought it was awesome

I liked the first two Pokemon "series" and the first 3 movies, but it really just went downhill after that. :/ I can't believe it's still going on, even in Japan. Christ, I was into Pokemon in 6th Grade!

With a great risk of sounding very un-cheerful...... lol


Dragonball is my no.1 object of hate when it comes to animanga. I don't like the plot, nor do I like how it's animated, the characters, the voice actors, their idiotic ways of fighting. It's ridiculous and lame. If it's on the TV and nothing else was on, the I'd switch off the telly. No matter how much I feel like watching atleast s o m e t h i n g. A few years ago a friend of mine put me through hell when he got the odd idea in his head that we were to watch a whole box of the thing. His idea was severally voted down after only two episodes. Don't really see the point with it, it's a shame that kids watch this, even worse when grownups do too.

Digimon. As soon as I hear the opening song I switch channels. But I've watched it when there's been nothing else. The story isn't made for grownups but I still wouldn't let a kid watch this either.

Beyblade has such a lame and dull story. Also Pokemon, Super Doll Lica Chan or something like that, Correcto Yui, Barom One and certain parts of Yu Gi Oh are quite disgraceful.

All anime that came from card games & DBZ.

Yu-gi-oh is ok but every thing else sucks.

They all suck.

love hina is awsome. But I cant stand kiddy grade it was so boring no comdey boooo. I cant stand dbz or pokemon either. but the first season of pokemon is good

I REALLY HATE yumeria!!It is the most boring anime .........

I think they are the worst:
- D.I.C.E. (No comment)
- Detective Conan (I don't hate this, but I think Spiral is better)
- F-Zero (The worst videogame adaptation)
- Gravitation 2000 (A gay anime? Hell no!!!!)
- Hamtaro (No comment)
- Pokemon (No comment)
- Rockman.EXE (A stupid Megamen parody)

Naruto
Green Green
Duel Masters
Monster Rancher
Digimon
Dragonball z (Thats better than Naruto though)

Duel Masters is pretty scary...
I used to be obsessed with Dragonball Z a looong time ago, but now that I look back on it, I shake my head in shame.

I pity people who look back at their old fandoms in shame. I may not like certain things anymore, but I still hold fond memories of them. : (

here here, cheers. :D

I only saw the Tekken animated movie trailer and it looks crap. I dont wanna see the movie. I bet it isnt good. the trailer sucks XD

My top worst anime. (In no particular order):
Naruto (Annoying and just...lame.)
Inuyasha (Repetitive and boring.)
Beyblade (It`s alright but it gets old quick.)
Bleach (I love the art style though!)
Teen Titans (I count this as an anime. lol)
Kiddy Grade (VERY boring!)

I can`t think of any others right now. XD

basically anything related to school girls, maid costumes, stupid heart faces, or jailbait. http://www.haruhi.tv/mikuru/IMG_2528.JPG

I will gag. Overly pretentious animes are crap too/

I hate Naruto (Believe it!)

BO BO BO-BO-BO-BO BO (nose hairs of doom)

Blue Gender (alien bugs = boring)

Ghost in the Shell ( I always fall asleep because it is so boring. Good intro, though)

haha. the same thing happened to me with wolfs reign and witch hunter robin. (which i've also mentioned in this thread and others that they totally suck)

but i wanna think twice about that because it could be it just came on too late and i was too tired by then. so i should prolly give them both a second chance. (maybe)

i don't like hating anime. i wanna love it all. i wanna go back to where there wasn't a single anime i dind't like. i was cool like that back then. i understood everything! yah. i might do that. totally cool.

aside from what anime can truly be categorized as 'generic' like so many titles available in some import stores as Little Tokyo or Korea Town for you Los Angeles bound peoples.., this thread title should just read:

"Non-fanboy's Rant Thread"

I think as a lot of you DBZ sucks, sorry if i offend somebody but that's my point of view

I dont like..
- Pokemon
- Digimon series 2,3
- DBZ, really badly drawn men whi rip their shirts off... uhh.
- Naruto, kinda repeats itself and all the characters are emo.
- Duel Masters.
- yu-gi-oh
- any other card game anime.
- SAILOR MOON D: nu. just nu.

I actually likes Card Captors...

you don't like sailor moon? you have sealed your fate. you will die in 7 days!

dun dun duuuuuun!!

[QUOTE=Ameena;682552]I dont like..

Do you like nicely drawn men ripping their shirts off?
Just kidding!

Id hardly even call Pokemon/digimon anime, it may look like it, but it sooo isnt

Um, yeah, it is. They're cartoons. From Japan. Therefore, Pokemon and Digimon = anime. :|
.
Though, in all technicalities, all cartoons could be considered "anime", since it's simply a shortening for "animation". In Japan, American cartoons are called anime as well as their own cartoons.

Worst Anime...
Pokemon and digimon and things like that,

I like the pokemon games but the series sucks, Ash has been all over the world and got badges and stuff but he still hasnt evolved that damn Bulbasaur

Id hardly even call Pokemon/digimon anime, it may look like it, but it sooo isnt

Id hardly even call Pokemon/digimon anime, it may look like it, but it sooo isnt

Animated? Check.
Made in Japan? Check.

I think it fulfills the all basic requirements for being called anime, so that statement was really dumb.

How the heck did my reply to his post get put ABOVE it? Oo

Forum glitch from yesterday. It threw me also. I wouldn't have bothered replying if I knew I was saying the same thing you already did.

Ok that was wierd,
Yes i know technically all cartoons can be called anime,as they are animations, but anime is usually specifically associated with Japanese, and a certain style

While Pokemon and digimon are still anime they could be called "less anime" than Other such series made specifically for a japanese audience.

Oh and why are the times of posts messed up??

Again, no, they are not "less anime". Just because you personally don't like a series doesn't make it less of anything that it falls under the definition of. It just means the series is not to your taste.

Personally, I fucking hate shows like Fruits Basket and Ouran, but I still consider them anime. Just really shitty anime.

Personally, there aren't many series I hate; but one I do is...

REIGN: The Conqueror

Also, from reading the entire topic, it seems like some of these claims are based on only watching the dubs. I'm not one of those elitists that believes that all subs are better than dubs, but there are many cases.

Also, in the case of DragonBall, there's a reason that the Freeza battle was drawn out for so long. Toriyama wanted to end it with Goku becoming a Super Sayian and defeating Frieza, but dying while trying to escape. Just like the story arc did end. Only problem was that the fans wanted more. He then made the Android and Cell story arcs. Was once again supposed to end with Goku dying to save everyone. Fans STILL wanted more. Toriyama then made the Buu arc. He was then able to end it. Fans STILL wanted EVEN MORE. That's where GT comes in. The only thing that Toriyama had to do with that was a few character designs.

Also, I will openly admit that I liked Digimon. That is, up until Frontier.

For those who don't know, each "Season" was actually a different series.

S1: Adventure 01 (First half of Digimon Adventure, the good one)
S2: Adventure 02 (Second half, not so great)
S3: Tamers (Currently the best of the 4 completed series)
S4: Frontier (Almost everyone didn't like this one compared to the others)
S5: Savers (Currently airing in Japan, is getting to Tamers level quality. And that's a good thing.)

About .hack//SIGN, it was mainly used as a story-based prequel to the 4 .hack games for the PS2. After that, they released .hack//DUSK, also known as Legend of the Twilight Bracelet. It was meant to be more light hearted.Just now, they have released the new game .hack//G.U. Rebirth and the new anime .hack//ROOTS. I know nothing about Roots except for the fact that is's to be aired on Cartoon Network.

I'm not trying to change your opinions, I know that you can love what you love, and hate what you hate. I'm not trying to change that.

Also, just so you know, my current favorite anime is:

Mobile Fighter G Gundam

Thank you for your time, and good night.

Kyo...i'll say
its actually a oka anime
but kyo is just bad compare to its original manga...i love the manga =v=''

nice job, bp. i know where your coming from. i can respect people who hate certain anime, but it does bug me when the REASONS they hate it are like...all the wrong reasons. i can see your just trying to correct those ideas.

Popotan get this vote.

Woops I guess I should warn you
**SPOILER**

Featuring...

Inuyashas ending



























Inuyasha. Way to long it has like a hundred or so episodes and in the end it has no conclusion; that really pissed me off, it was ok in the begining but it is just to repetitive.
I may also add pokemon, yugioh, beyblade etc...

Medabots. Horrible art, eye-wretchingly bad animation, annoying characters, stupid-looking robots, no storyline (battle after battle), and rips off of everything from Pokemon to Sailor Moon. Nelvana's dub doesn't help things, either.

Oh, God. I thought I had forgotten about the travesty that was Medabots.

Thou I know a few dubbed anime out there that are pretty good in english, the rest are crap! While watching Samurai Deeper Kyo in english I grew greatly disinterested because of the voice acting! It was THAT BAD! So I had to finish it in japanese, where it sounded alot better, and actually got me into it again.

Oh, and SD Gundam... horrible. In english and japanese. That's is all I have to say.

Hamtaro is the GREATEST ANIME EVER.....everything else stinks.Period.Yes, Hamsters are Ham ham better. Oh and Superbook is great too.

The Melty Lancer OVA, biggest pile of crap to ever hit my eyes.

Anybody mentioned Samurai Deeper Kyo!! yes, somebody did.

SDK isn't the worst but its not great either. Anyway here is my list of the worst and my reasoning for them:

Love Hina:
One joke spanned over 26 episodes gets really old really fast. Throw in some really bad character development and cliche'd plots and you've got one boring anime.

Dragonball Z/GT:
I must be clear here and say that I absolutely hate DBZ and GT, though the original is bearable. Where the original had some nice comic relief and was genuinely fresh the same can't be said for DBZ/GT. I know that it the filler episodes where created to keep it with the Manga but that doesn't excuse the fact that it moves along at a depressingly slow pace. Again, bad characters and weak storylines don't help it. The animation is just plain bad and the 'fighting' if you can even call it that, well the less said the better.

Neon Genesis Evangellion:
This is one that I'll probably get a lot of heat for but I honestly think that its THE most overrate anime of all time. The characters never change, behave in unrealistic ways and the story never really advances or goes anywhere. Episodes exist simply to have another angel attack. The religous symbolism is excessive and I had to take time out to look it all up because I'm not a christian so it didn't make sense to me at first. However, thats not my reason for hating it. The reason is that its plot was bad and its characters were bad. Though admittedly the mechs are some of my all time favorites.

Street Fighter 2V:
I love Street Fighter and it pains me to say this but this was THE worst iteration of it ever. Atleast the Jean Claude Van Damme movie was funny in how bad it was. This had the absolute worst soundtrack of any anime ever, and had so many inaccuracies that it wasn't even funny. Ken is a redhead? Well thats news to me. Just a terrible anime that should be avoided at all costs.

Tenchi Muyo:
Bad, just bad.

Blue Gender:
What started out as a very cool anime with an interesting 28 Days later kind of feel quickly deteriorated into misguided train wreck of a series. It ran into issues with character development as soon as they arrive on second earth. Characters switch roles and the plot twists had potential but were just never saw through. Towards the end they ran out of steam and pulled of the worst ending ever. It started out with a qausi scientific explanation for everything but by the end we've got the 'will of the earth,' please what BS. Also, why have mechs if they roll on wheels and with an open cockpit? Why not just use a damn tank?

Yu Yu Hakusho:
What can be said about this anime? Bad characters? Bad Soundtrack? Well all of those and more. Again we have another cliche storyline where our main character is annoying as hell and magically gets the strength to overcome every obstacle in his way. Now granted there are a few occasions where he doesn't always prevail but they're just too sparse to give the anime any kind of redeeming qualities. There were some cool characters though, Hiei is still one of my favorite characters from any anime. That said, for the most part the characters are terrible.

Rurouni Kenshin (Shishio Arc Only):
I loved the first third, last third and OVAs of Rurouni Kenshin but this middle arc is god awful. Kenshin NEVER changes at all. Its just ridiculously absurd. Oh and the fights. The fights were terrible, repetetive and I find it very hard to believe that Kenshin is such a great fighter when the second his sword is gone hes useless. So you're telling me that he doesn't know any hand to hand? The only thing that redeemed it were Kenshin's Sensei and Sanoske.

Those are what come to mind right now.

nice descriptions. they seem honest. :p

i liked sf2v though. lol. this was back in the day when i would go renting for anime at the local video store. are you sure your tv dind't have some wierd tint to it cause his hair was pretty much orange the whole time. orange is like somewhat blonde...:p (depending on shade and light source...)

tenchi muyo bad? >.< aaaahhh! funny how tastes differ so greatly sometimes. i love dbz. :(

ah well. i ain't gonna try to convince you or defend it or anything. gotta respect the fact that some people like diffrent things. :p

It looked red on my comp, maybe my screen is just dirty. Who knows? However, in the dub ryu explicitly calls him a red head at one point. Seing as I don't know colors yet in Japanese I have no way to verify. As for my views, I'm probably one of the pickiest people that you'll ever meet. It just takes one thing to irk me and you've lost me. So if they seem extreme its because of that lol.

Another vote from me to Samurai Deeper Kyo.. Ehm,, Just to show my genuine affection.. Sorry.

I'de have to say Tokyo mew mew
at first, it started of quite nice (i watched this show two years ago, so back then it didn't bother me so much that it was a little bit childish) the search and introduction of the characters was nicely done, and also the evil guy was introduced.
but then, it became boring, really boring. the transformation was always the same, episode after episode after episode. then, it appeared more "evil" characters were going to appear but that just made the show worse.
it's 52 episodes, every episode fighting a monster without a purpose, i never watched it till the end, i just found it so old and the same thing over and over again.

And i'm sorry for all the naruto fans, but i just hate the fillers. i love the regular show, when they follow the manga, that's nice. but the fillers are just horrible. no story at all, lame joke and making fun of their own character every episode again.

you know what. now that i think about it. i think i've given it enough of a chance as it is. i didn't wanna say this but i'm getting really sick and tired of each episode now i don't even know why i force myself to watch.

i really really really think

orphen 2 sucks!!

this show is just soooo fucking boring and stupid. i like filler episodes if i love the characters and i just love watching what they do day in and day out. but in this case, i DON'T love the characters! i think they suck. i think they suck. and i think they suck. not fun to watch them. and ye the fillers go on. they use the 20 minutes of filler and 5 minutes of important story format that many crap anime's use. they give only teensy bit of hints that there's some type of story progression but in reality there really isn't. just more filler. >.<


anyone else seen it? supposedly the first series is good.

The worst anime i've encountered so far has to be Mouse its about a stupid theif. i think i'll stick with lupin thank you very much.

I don't like any Gundam, Cowboy Bebop, or Ghost in the Shell.... the story and characters are just too boring and flat for me. And for a FF anime...well, let's just say I'm not even going there....the crappy games scare me enough, and I don't need anymore terrifying, random anime.....

How can someone not like cowboy bebop? It's probably the only anime with any sort of far reaching depth, cinematic bearing, or relevance. The characterization actually has layered meaning instead of this crappy shounen fest where every other anime program has the same generic cast of stock characters with different hairstlyes. Can someone honestly find any relevant differences between Yusuke, Ichigo and the rest of these shounen archetypes?

I think by "flat" s/he means "realistic". =P

No actually I just mean uber boring and completely uninteresting. lol And I'm a female.

Bebop and Ghost in the Shell?

Christwagons ;_;; I mean, yeah GITS is excusable because that's a little out there and you really have to watch it from episode 1 to understand most of everything. The 2nd GiG is most certainly my favorite and the movies are excellent.

But Bebop? That's far from boring and uninteresting. There's alot of action, the dialogue is pretty amusing, the characters aren't typical, and not to mention one of the most amazing soundtracks I've ever heard. Maybe you should sit and watch the entire series from episode 1 or again (if you've seen them all) to really establish something a little more solid, but to each their own I guess.

Oh well to all his own opinion. I trid watching Ghost in the Shell and way too boring for my tastes....Bebop is the same, but that's only because I like weird freaky stuff and it's just too "normal" for me I guess. There are actually a very few episodes of Bebop that I like, just not many...I do agree it has a wonderful soundtrack though, as does GITS....

Oh well to all his own opinion. I trid watching Ghost in the Shell and way too boring for my tastes....Bebop is the same, but that's only because I like weird freaky stuff and it's just too "normal" for me I guess.
Well, with that said, I'm just going to blow off the fact that you mentioned Bebop as the worst because this isn't the "Anime I Dislike Thread". If anyone ever honestly said it was the worst, I'd expect a damn good arguement.

~That is all.

Well I guess it's because I like so many, those are just at the bottom of my list so far...so they are indeed the worst to me as far as what I have watched...That's not to say I'll watch another that will bring them up a bit one day. It could very well happen.

Inuyasha. why? Because of bullshit. Whenever they get close to killing Naraku, some new bullshit pops up.

Let's see....There's not many animes that I hate but the few that I do are:

DBZ(or any Dragonball for that matter) for some reason I didn't like the animation and the story was kinda boring.
Inuyasha- too overrated sometimes and it seemed like it would never end.
BO BO BO-BO-BO-BO BO- I don't think I really need a reason for this one.
Duel Masters- too random for me and I didn't get the rules of the game.
And basically anything excessively bloody- I guess I have a weak stomach :P.

Unlike most people who posted, I do like Digimon and Pokemon(but Digimon more). For Pokemon, I mainly liked the first season best and the 3rd, 6th, and 8th movie. I liked Digimon because the story was a little more complex but as I got older I realized how lame the theme song and the jokes were so I watch the Japanese versions now, which are a whole lot better than the dub(especially the music). My favorite season is Tamers followed by Savers.


Hika Yagami

I despise Naruto and InuYasha. Naruto is just very typical, and it just drags on. And while I did like the manga for a time, the English voice actors suck. I feel like my ears will bleed every time I hear Naruto's voice.

And as for InuYasha, I was a huge fan at one point. But then I realized that-in the 300 or so episodes that are out there- absolutely nothing happens. If you compare the first few episodes to the last few, there are almost no differences.
When the series ends, have they collected all the jewel shards? No.
Have they killed Naraku? No.
Has Inuyasha finally gotten off his *** and chosen between Kikyo and Kagome?
Nope.
Gah! It's so annoying!

Kikyo > Kagome, IMO.

But yeah, Inuyasha sucks pretty fucking bad.

Well if me i dislike those complicated storyline, hard to understand fact in their anime and repeatative storyline that mean you can easily guess what happens next.

Well if me i dislike those complicated storyline, hard to understand fact in their anime and repeatative storyline that mean you can easily guess what happens next.

Stellar effort! Now, let's try and rephrase that so everybody can actually understand what the fuck you're trying to say.

Why no one mencionates Duel master, is the worst anime, even for my it�s only a )(/& (/&

Pokemon is really unbelievable. My cousin wanted me to watch it and I never did. Happy I didn't. I have watched some weird anime, but I liked Gasaraki a lot, even thought it was too smart for me. Cybaster was BAD, the graphics were bad and the storyline was sad.

But that's just me.

"prince of tenis" is probably the lamest anime, there's no point to it!!!

from what i've seen, Bleach, Naruto and Inuyasha are pretty fucking horrid.

special mention to Big O as well.

I despise Naruto and InuYasha. Naruto is just very typical, and it just drags on.

Agreed!

Then, there is Sekushi Commando Gaiden: Sugoiyo! Masaru-san (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=804)... "Sexy Commando" form of martial art??! What an idea!

All of the mentioned animes have nothing against the failure that is...oh God, it's a taboo to even whisper it's name, but...it is...

MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM SEED DESTINY!!!

As a Gundam fan, I thought it would be a good series, but it's a train wreak. Starts out sort of interesting, then deteriorates when Jesus Yamato shows up. It gets even worse when he not only survives an anti-ship sword through the cockpit, but then steals the spotlight from the main character. It's bad enough that the story is a failed copy of Zeta Gundam, but it gets a lot worse with the constant recaps and flashbacks. Of course, let's not forget the screwed up stock footage used. The ending overall is just crap and completely anti-climactic. See, this is why you don't hire a director who hires his wife as a writer... Luckily, that bastard Fukuda and his wife, Morosawa, have been fired. It's a good thing Gundam Seed CE 73: Stargazer came out to partially redeem the biggest failure in the history of Gundam. Still, it sucked that it was only made up of three 15-minute segments. I know they are going to have a total of four compilation movies, but from what I've heard, the ones so far are horrible. The only thing that can redeem it is if they completely change the ending and just flat out kill Kira. I'd love to see the "Awakening Light" ending occur instead...

In second place is Mobile Suit Gundam Seed because it was completely unoriginal and suffered almost all the problems of its sequel, including major changes in the planned storyline. It's barely acceptable as a Gundam series. Still, it was its sequel that made me just not consider CE as part of Gundam at all.

As for the other AU series, they're a hell lot better than anything from CE. Although I did dislike G Gundam, it took a while to see its different portrayal of war, since I wasn't too familiar with other Super Robot animes. As for Gundam Wing, it's pretty much an exemplary AU series and does tributes correctly without ripping off UC. Even though there are recaps and stock footage, its not as bad or as noticeable as Seed's. The only problem is character development, which is why you would have to turn to parts of Endless Waltz and especially its manga, Episode Zero. Gundam X is not exactly considered AU anymore, but it was originally considered one. The characters are interesting and the plot is very good, but it did suffer problems because it got cut ten episodes short. If it was brought over here, it may do better than Gundam Wing, considering many idolize Wing Zero as a god, but the Gundam X could kick it's ass...

In response to the Natsumi's first post:
I used to watch DBZ because we only had one tv, and that's all my older brother and our cousins wanted to watch. I never understood or liked it...

I miss the old Pokemon series. Sometimes I catch the old episodes, but I haven't lately. There are all these new Pokemon, and they just look odd... and that's a bad odd.

my sister thinks that YuYu Hokuso is the worst anime

Inuyasha. why? Because of bullshit. Whenever they get close to killing Naraku, some new bullshit pops up.Absolutely!

I also hate "Prince of Tennis"? How fucken dramatical can every shot be!

Sorry to say this, but I also hate Evangelion (fell asleep), Gundam "Waltz", Macross 7, Pukemon.

The first 3 seasons of Digimon were cool.

Absolutely!

Word.

I honestly don't get what the big deal is with Evangelion.
Also...Naruto, DBZ, Prince of Tennis, and any other anime that repeatedly overdramaticizes the smallest things can just rot for all I care.

Naruto, I can't stress this nearly enough.

The worst anime ever is Naruto hands down.

I HATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Inu-yasha and Naruto and pokemon sucks

the worst anime ever created: Pokemon....the worst anime EVER...

Prince Of Tennis I watched one ep. WHAT THE FUCK MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you mean to tell me though this whole show all the guy does is play tennis and learn some special move. How lame is that!!! but my biggest gripe is why does Adult Swim keep Inu-Yasha on the air DAMN MAN how much longer are they going to keep it on the air!!!!

Probably gonna piss off a lot of people here but.... I HATE Naruto.... so much.... most of said hate is aimed at the TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE dub *shudders*
Also, Pokemon makes me sad, but I enjoy Pikachu because it's cute and I have a backpack shaped like it. I also did not like Trinity Blood, because Abel was exactly the same as Vash from Trigun. He ruined the show.

<font color="green">Im sorry to you guys out there that like DBZ & Pok�mon, but I hate them. I cant stand DBZ the fighting sucks, the storyline sucks. Everything XD And as for Pok�mon, whats the point of catching animals and putting them into balls. There isnt enough action in Pok�mon, its more like a kid kinda cartoon, but I would rather watch Pok�mon than DBZ.

Good point. I prefer Pok�mon over DBZ. Personally, I HATE the kind of drawing on DBZ. Bleck. Too much detail. Anime is SUPPOSED to be somewhat cheap, ne?

Wow I would hate to see your anime collection where everything looks so cheap... Dragonball Z is not overly detailed, especially considering shows and movies being presented today. Dragonball Z also came out in the late 80's early 90's in japan, so it has an excuse of being up to par by today's standards.
Try some better shows than Pokemon... have a look at Blood+, Fullmetal Alchemist... anything by Studios Gonzo or Ghibli.

Okay, I caved into my friend's request to watch Prince of Tennis. And I've always stayed away from just WATCHING sports.. but since it's an anime.. it might be good? I mean Suzuka was nice, though not really sport focused.

Anyway, bottom line is... I'll never take suggestions that aren't on my actual want to see list anymore.

Legend of Duo is by far too AWFUL for my tastes. Especially the animation... "I have pretty pictures.. that move!"

Yu-Gi-oOh blows hard chunks.
It's totally moronic. The hair, the characters, everything. @__@
I hate it all.

Samurai Champloo is overrrated, but as for the worst around. . .


Mouse was pretty stupid.

I'd say any Americanized anime that I see from time to time on the "time to appeal to middle schoolers" hour on Cartoon Network, etc, would probably be some of the worst anime I've seen...
But! The show Gantz, while it had TONS of potential, went basically nowhere. I hear the manga's great, but the show sucked. Something akin to DBZ's characters grunting and looking at each other for an entire episode, saying "but.. how? how is he still alive?" etc etc.
Seemed too much of a cheap excuse to make a show about excessive (while sometimes well done) violence and nudity, without much substance behind it.

I personally think DBZ is bashed too much. I mean, sure it's overratted, but it was one of those shows where you could watch when you're tired and tune in without thinking or really pay attention to the lack of (if any real) story. It's kinda like that cg thing they had before commercial breaks a while back where they played a little 30 sec piece of something weird forming.. then at the end of the year they played the whole thing out and it made one big huge weird thing and everyone would be all: "Wooooooww... what is it?". Anybody remember that?

I've never cared much for the Gundam series in general and I hate that Ghost in the Shell series with a passion.

True, DBZ could have been a lot worse. It did help me pass the time in middle school. Not like I had anything else to look forward to on a day-to-day basis, anyway... X P

Ragnarok the Animation, sorry guys i like the game, but DAYUM the anime was really lame in my opinion =/.

Inyuasha or however the freak you spell it. REALLY found this boring.

Yu Yu Hakusho, also boring.

Sorry if anyone are fans of these animes', no hard feelings ya?

Hm...I could name a few from memory:

Inyuasha- dude, they didn't even kill the bad guy in the end

Digimon- "Pokemon" and "Digimon" lol I thought they were the same things! (sarcasm)

Pokemon- It's been more than 10 freaking years since in aired in the USA, and it's still goin. WHEN WILL THE ENDLESS JOURNEY END?!!??!!

Sailor Moon- I can't believe I was 7 and I watched this.

Yugi-Oh- It-it-it........*sigh* i'm speechless.

It's become so easy to bash DBZ, especially compared with today's anime. It's not really that bad.

Dragonball, which isn't such a bad series itself (Its more of a kids fairy tale series) left off with some nagging questions like "What's the deal with Goku and his tail?" Well DBZ I think came about to explain all that

I think DBZ would've been a better series if they had cut off after the Cell saga when Goku dies and Gohan beats Cell for the final time. You have the conclusion that Goku had fulfilled his role as Earth's hero and that it was up to the next generation to take care of things. Nice and tidy

That would have been good. Instead we had Goku coming back more powerful than ever and then the whole fusion, the next levels of Super Saiyan. It was all a big mess of lame predictable crap

As for my vote for worst anime? Gasaraki.. I bought it a few years ago, and considering I can't get past the first episode without being bored to tears... yeah




Yu Yu Hakusho, also boring.

Sorry if anyone are fans of these animes', no hard feelings ya?

Yu Yu Hakusho is great. Although I think it takes until the 2nd half of the series to really appreciate it (end of dark tournament and onwards) But yeah everyone has their own opinions

no dobt that the number one worst anime has to be papuwa. so sad that its from squre enix!! where did they go wrong =(

papuwa is from square? wtf? dude that show is fucking crazy.

the gay snail and fish are hilarious though. and i do like some of the inside jokes. but....idk. it's just...wierd. lol

I personally think Ghost in the Shell is one of the most well drawn and thought out series out there. I love it.

Worst anime I've seen would have to be Naruto. The main reason is Naruto himself.

And it wasn't bad but I never really got too into Yu Yu Hakusho.

Bubblegum Crisis...that shit was fucking lame.

Nadia the Movie. Shameful animation( the short-lived series is 100000 times better) and poo-poo story. ;_;

Dragon Ball Z. The anime was way too long but it's all the same things happening.

The worst anime ever is Desert Punk. By far, it's stupid.

As far as DBZ goes its a good anime for people just getting into anime as a whole but people who have watched more will think its crap, true no story and far too much flying to random places, talking about fighting, thinking about who they are going to fight, travelling to fight someone e.t.c. but on the whole its good till you watch pretty much anything else. As for pokemon its just animal cruelty, stuffing them in cut open tennis balls is just plain wrong :p

I personally hate Inuyasha.

I personally hate Inuyasha.


i just grew a strong dislike for you.
>:O

wost anime = Yugi-hoe.

Im not really a big DBZ fan. I used to be forced to watch it with my brother. If i didnt he would cry. Lol. Im also not really a Bleach fan, i read it and watched the anime but It didnt suit me well. :]

X is the WORST anime I EVER watched.

*spoilers*

They killed off the main character. They killed off a lot of other characters. Everyone just DIES in this anime. I don't understand why they had to kill off the main character. The ending was just very unsatisfying, IMO. I mean, I don't mind when endings aren't "the greatest".. but that was over the top.


There was another one.. Blue Gender I think? That was soooo damn boring. I watched some episodes, only halfway, and I think all it was about was the guy getting some booty with as much girls as he could.

Inuyasha... well, that's self explanatory. More than half the crap that happens in that series is unnecessary. They could've finished everything in at LEAST 10 episodes.

Super Milk Chan-I couldn't watch it for more than 3 minutes before I wanted to claw out my eyes and pour bleach in my ears.

Naruto Filler- Like I give a damn about some stupid village with a meteorite or a super blood hound bug or any of the other five thousand inane storylines.

Worst anime ever... Revolutionary Girl Utena or something to that effect. I was forced to sit through 5 episodes of that crap in high school, I'll never forget that. Some whiny pink-haired girl wants to be a prince or something, and she's got this possibly east indian purple-haired girl in love with her. No real story to it, bad animation, it was physically painful to watch. And to top it all off, it was dubbed.

Naruto would have to be second on my list. The only saving grace it had, to me at least, was Gaara being voiced by Ishida Akira.

I had been thinking that I might actually like you, but you've just dashed that hope almost entirely.

And not with the bit about Naruto, because that really is garbage.

It's pretty lame to watch 5 episodes of a 36 episode series and claim that it has no story. And the anti-dub elitism is just plain old. Anyone who still clings to the archaic and incorrect notion that dubs are somehow inherently inferior is a laughingstock now.

I disike the lack of talented voice acting for the non-franchised anime, I don't hate dubs. I hate bad dubs. That one was a bad dub. Should I have clarified this? 5 episodes is more than enough, especially in a relatively short series such as that, to show what the story is about. Have you seen it? Are you an Utena fan? If so, explain to me why. Perhaps there was some grand finish to it that redeemed it?

Either way, I was under the impression this thread was about personal opinions, and my opinion was that Utena was just plain horrible.

prak once saw the first 5 episodes of gundam wing and he hates it. see what an injustice only 5 eps is? gundam wing is the greatest! you should watch all of utena then talk. :p


btw i'm just kidding. prak saw it all and loved it. ;)


ok i was kidding again. he was part of the creative staff and voiced zecks marquis. :p (lol i would worship prak if that was true, that's a badass voice >.< lol)

I have seen Utena, and although I liked it overall, I do have somewhat mixed feelings about it. While the pacing is a bit wonky early on, it does develop as it goes. Also, it is not uncommon at all for an anime series, including some that are wildly popular, to run longer than that before an actual story emerges.

As far as opinions go, that's a cop-out and really isn't useful in discussion. This thread is not just for stating your views. It's also for discussing them. Anything you say is fair game. If you can't deal with that, you should settle for simply muttering to yourself in the shower or something.

Just for the sake of clarity, Gundam Wing is utter shit.

you hurt my feelings, man. ;_; it just hurts! >.<


lol but yah i know you hate it. that's what made my lies funnier. :p

Haruhi Suzumiya No Yuutsu and Naruto are 2 of the worst anime I have watched.

Duel Masters was bullshit too. The character designs were poorly done. Come on! Yu-Gi-oH Was better and that rocked..Digimon sucks too.

I'd just like to remind people that there is a big different between "worst" and "least favorite." When you don't note that difference properly, you wind up with a smartass like me questioning you. Like this:

So what exactly was so horrible about Haruhi?

Good point, actually. But...I guess its kind of hard to choose a "worst" anime that doesn't have any basis on your own personal feelings on that show. Maybe the thread should be titled "Least Favorite".

With that said...Pokemon is the WORST. ANIME. EVER. Opinions mean nothing on this; its a fact of life :p

I have to say that the "Worst" anime that I have ever seen has to be the 1987 OVA "Hyper Combat Unit Dangaioh". And not the Manga Entertainment edited release, I'm talking the freaking Streamline pictures uncut release.

Really, the only thing that is even remotely likable about that godforsaken piece of crap is the Mechanical designs, which were done by Shoji Kawamori.

I was lucky to find the Wikipedia entry for this show. Here's the plot synopsis from said wiki entry:

Brought together by the mysterious Dr. Tarsan, four psychic warriors Miya Alice, Lamba Nom, Rol Kran and Pai Thunder can unite four powerful planes to form Dangaioh - the most powerful weapon in the universe. Using their psionic force, the Dangaioh team alone can stop the bloody tyranny of Captain Garimoth and Gil-Berg.

The team hopes their psychogenic wave will be strong enough to destroy Garimoth's evil henchman, the notorious Gil-Berg, who has sworn by the taking of his right eye to utterly destroy the Dangaioh team. Along with the threat of Gil-Berg, the Dangaioh team must also avoid falling foul of Garimoth's trickery which finds weakness in their forgotten pasts.

::groan:: To this day, I want my two hours back and resent the fact that I can't tell myself "Don't watch the damn show". It has nothing to do with the release being from Streamline (if ANYONE knows what I'm talking about here, I'd be pleased). It is just utter poo.

If anyone else wonders why I sat through it if I felt so strongly about it, it has a lot to do with the fact that I was reviewing it for a website. I'm sure, if I could find it, that review would be particularly unhappy. It's possible.

So, anyway, that's my take. I'm sorry, but DBZ isn't as bad as Dangaioh. Inuyasha, Yugioh, Mouse, the Mezzo TV series, Spiral, Gundam wing . . . NONE of these are as bad as Dangaioh.

Hmm..., well I've seen many anime and there are a few that come to mind.
The top 5 in my list:
1) Dragonball Z (Only the U.S. Dub; I'd prefer the original Japanese)
2) Alien 9 (Depressing at too many times)
3) Now and then, Here and there (Same as No. 2)
4) Galaxy Angel Z to X (It all just became even more stupid)
5) Lastly, Graduation/Sailor Victory (Same characters, different storylines, no sense)
There are more but that is all I'll post for now.

maburaho, .hack//roots, inuyasha are some of the worst

inuyasha was good for about 15 eps, then jus became crap

Melancholy of Haruhi and Evangelion are greatly overrated

Sorry but my list is:
The Big O
FMA
s-CRY-ed
Trinity Blood
Trigun
Samurai Champloo
Eureka 7

I bought RG Veda for the hell of it because it was ten bucks. Ten bucks wasted >__<'
Fortunately, my little sister was there to make fun of those lame characters and made me lmao all over myself. Not to mention that scene where that little girl (or was it a boy) around whom the story kind of revolves has some sort of moment of revelation or something and all you hear is that sound effect that comes before you see the words "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..."

< synth fx > THX CERTIFIED!!!

Super Milk Chan-I couldn't watch it for more than 3 minutes before I wanted to claw out my eyes and pour bleach in my ears.
LOLz, my sentiments exactly. I watched several episodes, though. (Ouch!)

You dont like Fullmetal Alchemist?????? Whats wrong with you???????

Fullmetal Alchemist is one of the BEST anime shows ive seen in my entire life.......Its actaully my FAVORITE one.

Ok,it might be in your least favorite list....but on the HATE list......come on man!!!!

Ohhhhh....Just noticed....all of the animes you listed were or are super popular!!! You are just trying to piss of people......right???

DBZ is the best anime ever - for a really guy that likes fighting and action. It's all about power, being the characters the center-point of everything (the characters can live without the scenario). It's bad for little girls and for guy-girls that like to dress-up with stupid anime clothes, that like to be different (and gay), that like stupid homoshit stuff like Sailor Moon, Utena and other girls-things.

Sorry to say it, Gokuraku, but your assessments are incorrect. None of the anime you listed are the worst, or even as harmful to little girls and guy-girls, as Dangaioh. Nothing is worse than Dangaioh.

Worst Anime?

This is the reason that the user gave:

I will certainly take all appropriate actions at once!

Hot damn! I love it when people report my own posts to me.

Another anime which is on my worst/least favourite list is Green Green.

It's too fanservice-y for me. It's not aimed for me...so bleh. I didn't like it.

I know a BAD Dub, Bible Black.
It's so Horrid that you can just laugh.

Im with you on that one^_^

Blood: The Last Vampire.

That anime...I sat through it...and then wanted to bash my head against the wall. Just cause I just sat through the most boring, almost no dialogue, anime ever.

On that note. Blood+ was pretty good.

EEEEEEEEVVVVAAAAAAAAANNNNNGGEELLLLLLLIOOONNNN!

Sorry Leprosy, was that evangelion. Thats far from the worst!

'Highlander the search for vengance' is some where in the running for the worst.

I saw it at Scifi london as part of the anime all-nighter. My boyfriend and i got told off by the people in front of us for taking the rip out of it. After the film she was on the verge of apologising to us. It was that bad.

The anime news network review sums it up and is a fun read.
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/highlander-search-for-vengeance/dvd

"You cannot win against me McCloud, for the chin is mightier than the mullet!"
You just have to laugh at it

I know that I'll probably get slack for saying this but:
InuYasha (the DBZ for Girls). As much as I've tried, I absolutly don't get it.
.hack// series - again, can't seem to get into it
Evangelion - Just to weird to understand (believe me, I've tried lots of time, only to fall asleep)
Prince of Tennis - How can you put so much dramatic effect around one tennis shot, let alone each and every single one!

I find most people who said Pokemon, Dragonball/Z, Naruto sucked quite idiotic. But not everyone though. I'm sure most of them are saying they hate these because it had already become mainstream and popular. :/ Really. That attitude ticks me off.

These shows aren't really that bad; I've seen worse. Dragonball and Naruto actually had very well-written storylines, impressively done; although somewhat has a share of nasty plot holes. The art is also very good for their own times; Dragonball had unique, detailed art, and the manga is very good in terms of fluidity in storyline. Naruto, on the other hand, is also very good in terms of art; I'd prefer this over cheaply drawn stereotypical anime styles. Plus the story is very deep; if you'd look past the English dub or whatever that makes you dislike it. Seriously, people who complain just to join the crowd annoys me.

For my own opinion, I'd say I pretty much dislike Princess Princess. Overly feminine guys in drag in highschool chased by fellow school mates? Overly shiny and sparkly songs and animation? No thank you.

Dragonball had crummy character development, a limp storyline, and a cheap animation style. The main reason it was such a success was because it was targeted appropriately. I haven't had the chance to watch naruto, although i probably would if i got the chance. I didn't even think pokemon deserved a chance.

so if it wasn't targeted for you then it's crap then? O_o

Wow. I was kinda expecting a slightly larger shitstorm than one non-shitstorm-y post. Well, I guess I can just say it outloud- I just don't like Giant Robot Animes full of Christian symbolism and inner meaning...

... when they boil down to "DADDY DOESN'T LOVE ME WAAAHHH!! WAAAHHH!!"

I hate:
Dragon Ball Z
Yu-gi-oh er whatever it's called
Bo-bo-bo-bo.. whatever it's called
Beyblade


but I would really like to say is that Naruto is ok, good story, pretty good artwork but it's just TOO OVER RATED!

Yu-Gi-Oh!
100% Ichigo
Air Master
Honey Flash
The Art of Fighting (OVA)

... when they boil down to "DADDY DOESN'T LOVE ME WAAAHHH!! WAAAHHH!!"LMAO! so that's what it was about!

as for DBZ, Pokemon, and Naruto. I wouldn't say they suck.
DBZ - I've always liked it, way before it came over. I just hated the fact that people made it seem like the best anime ever.
Pokemon - Just got redundant, I'm mean it started with just 150 pokemon, and now it's just overkill with every series having a new Ultimate Pokemon.
Naruto - I haven't sat down to see it, but it doesn't really interest me, so no real opinion.

Strawberry Panic! was painfully boring, even with the two or three rape attempts and the frequent lesbian sexings. o_o I seriously can't believe I made it through this series...

I used to be a big fan of this show, but now I despise Inuyasha. The anime has ended already, but it took AGES and it didn't have a conclusive ending at all. They just go off into the sunset saying 'lol hay guyz, we'll get Naraku one day! lolz'. I nearly wanted to smash my computer screen in when I watched it. They don't kill Naraku, they don't get all of the shards, and Inuyasha hasn't picked either Kikyou or Kagome. NOTHING PROGRESSED AND IT ENDED WHERE IT STARTED.

The manga isn't going anywhere as well and Rumiko Takahashi needs to end it right now. The only difference now is that Naraku has even more DEM powers to save his ass with and he has a new hell spawn called Byakuya. >_>

Shounen-ai and yaoi animes and manga that don't go past the genre stereotypes (Tall, dark and handsome seme, and the short, cute, kind of childish uke are prime examples.) arn't really my cup of tea. Doesn't mean I won't read them, I just expect more than the cookie-cutter plot and characters.

I detest MAR with a passion as well. It seems like another generic shounen anime that we don't really need anymore of.

Yes. She's really pushing it. I'm not a fan as I used to be. Iwant it to just end. I just mainly read the (depends) with Naraku in it. The story is dropping to a ointless point. It stretches to much. (with a good ending of course not a Fushigi Yuugi rip off XD.


And for worst anime.

Guyver Is the most boring anime I ever watched. I changed channel to watch takeshi's Castle later on XD.

I Hate Pokemon. Its PointLess and Pathetic

and I Hate Love Hina I Just Couldn't Get Into It Properly.

Inuyasha
Prince of Tennis
Yu-Gi-Oh!

Most anime sucks, I'm afraid.

However, if I had to pick one I hate the most, I'd have to go with Inuyasha. I see NOTHING appealing about this show. The characters are annoying, the storyline sucks, and it's incredibly boring. I despise Inuyasha. It's freakin DBZ for girls.

Other shows I hate/just can't get into!:
Evangelion - I tried. I really did. But I just could not see the appeal of some whiny kid yelling I MUSN'T RUN AWAY for half an hour.
Witch Hunter Robin - I loved the soundtrack to this show. The show itself? One of the most boring things I've ever watched. For some reason, I watched most of the series and stopped like, two episodes before the last one.
Wolf's Rain - I don't care what anyone says, this show sucked too. It was a pretty big bummer because I had heard it was by the same team behind Cowboy Bebop, which I love. But this was just so incredibly boring and repetive. "WE MUST FIND PARADISE" "OH FUCK HUMANS" *humans shoot guns and wolves run away* *wash, rinse, repeat*
Naruto - I've tried watching this a few times and, yeah, it's not that bad. I just can't seem to get all that into it though.
Yu-Gi-Oh! - The only Yu-Gi-Oh! I like is the Abridged Series. That thing is hilarious.

There are others, I'm sure. Just can't think of them right now.

I don't mean to offend anyone but I really hated Spirits Within.

It's not anime, and of course you wouldn't like it. You're a Final Fantasy fancunt who clearly liked that Advent Children trash. No one with half a brain will take you seriously anyway.

It's not so much of me being an FF fan. I just didn't like the story because it really didn't explain a lot about who the spirits are. Getting back on topic worst anime Legend Of The Dragon. Needed more originality.

Pokemon sucks!!! I mean what kind of a message are they trying to teach Kids? I mean don't they have school, job and a future to worry about in the pokemon world? How does catching your local wildlife and brainwashing them to fight your pointless battles teach you how to have a meaningful life? That show never made sense.


DBZ has cool characters but a horrible storyline. The damn thing can easily be summarized in 50 episodes or less. ^_^

Battle Vixens.A friend of mine in Florida told me i should check i out.After the first two I thought to myself "WTF is going on"? They introduced way to many characters at once with no depth to em and it was basically just a ton of panty shots and kicks.

Naruto, Bleach, Inuyasha, gundam seed

I really hate Naruto it's a very dumb show Especially the English Dubbed one!

Pokemon, Yugioh, and Sailor moon!!!

Xenosaga: The Animation. Nice work changing the story so it has 98% less KOS-MOS, dumbass. KOS-MOS was the only reason why anyone liked Xenosaga in the first place, and you had to replace her with some stupid loli. Plus you can tell it was made by the same people as Burst Angel, as they managed to take a virtually sexless RPG and make an anime of it that's like 30% fanservice. An epic manuever if I ever saw one.

Plus they get rid of the whole lesbian thing between KOS-MOS and Shion. Which, again, was the whole point.

Hahah, so true. If it wasn't for the fact that I love any kind of gigantic robt I would agree woth you.

Personally i didn't care much for the tekken anime. Alot of my favorite characters were completely left out (you see paul's hair for a split second....thats all from him) And Kazuya was entirely to powerful. He seemed to take everything that even looked at him funny down effortlessly. Which is nice if your a diehard kazuya fanboy. But pretty fucking anoying if you were hoping for a good fight scene.

As for .hack... most of us who have some major part in the fandom do not recognize .hack//legend of the twilight bracelet (often mistranslated as DUSK) as being an existent anime. Ask me about it- I have no clue what you are talking about. I read the manga but after seeing one episode I refused to watch the anime.

The worst animes, in my opinion, are "A Papa to Kiss in the Dark" and, if I may say so as I get away running, Grenadiers.
I felt as if Grenadiers was just a foolish anime. As for APtKitD, it had scary incestuous overtones. However, to each their own (heck, I am gay, but even so there are levels of prudence).

I would also like to state that GitS is good, especially for us PoliSci majors. Hahah

Yeah,I already know people will get on me for this,but I really don't like Naruto.It got really boring for me fast.It was mostly a combination of the dubs and my friend obsessing over it.It's all she talked about.I probably would have liked it if she didn't just obsess with it.

Worst anime...? now this is interesting
It's a tough call. but I guess I know what I don't like...
Naruto it is, I don't really get the story so I have to ask some question to those who get it...

probibly Pokemon or Digimon.
oh yeah, and sailor moon. ugg.

hahaha, that reminds me.
you are 100% correct, sailor moon is not a good anime
those does no suits me well, even she said "by the power of the moon"...

O_o..............................................


-_-


sailor moon ownz all your asses bitches!

Did I tell you guys already that Lucky Star sucks?


/me runs away from a mob of angry otaku

Lucky Star?
Never heard of it..

Let's see... an anime that just wrong and you know it...
Any ideas...?
Dragon Ball, perhaps?
I don't like the graphics, what do you say...

Uh oh... the most horrible anime series huh?
Powerpuff Girls Z. The end.
It's madly disappointing...
Don't get me wrong. I LOVE the original OLDER Powerpuff Girls series in Cartoon Network (even if it isn't anime...), and so I thought the anime version would be grand! but no... i HATE how they portrayed mojo jojo...

Madly disappointing..
I never knew Powerpuff Girls has its anime version.
Man, my knowledge sucks.

yeah, i heard about that.
it sounded awful.
i hated the original powerpuff girls show, although I AM a boy, so I guess I can see why I hated it.
[[No offence to the fans of the show]]

YEAH BOYS CAN'T LIKE SHOWS WITH GIRLS IN THEM

YEAH BOYS CAN'T LIKE SHOWS WITH GIRLS IN THEM

I said no offence... sorry jeeze.

i saw ppgZ as well. i really hated how they changed their birth story. that pissed me off the most. i love the way they were born. it's unique. but in Z they made it... like they were picking sailor moon chars where a regular girl is somehow a ppg now? wtf? no thanks.


princess looks badass though. and i do adore the char designs. but the original story is important to me and the whole "regular girl now superhero" is like the most played out cliche in the history of all anime that i couldnt' stand it. >.<

also. the original Him is prolly more evil looking and more badass than even the anime version! O_o

i wanna hear the voices of all the villians to see if they went totally diff or tried to match them up. Him is fking awesome. i love how he goes from soft voice to demonic voice with the echo on the soft voice. lol.

Anyway, M.D. Geist was just flat-out terrible. I know it's not supposed to have one of the most epic plots ever conceived, but come on, it was dreadful. Hell, I even gave it a SECOND chance and found myself coming to the same conclusion I had reached long ago. Pure rubbish.
