popotan (nothing happens, shit story)

nagasarete airantou (nothing happens, shit story)

rosario+vampire (ONLY fanservice happens, main character has no personality, shit story)

shuffle (shit story, bogus characters (except kaede), main character is a stupid douche)

ergo proxy (what is this i don't even. couldn't understand anything that happened without careful rewatching and revision. crap story/characters anyway)

zero no tsukaima (FUCK I HATE LOUISE GODDAMIT SHE KILLED THE ANIME)

toradora (taiga is a fucking retard. minori is better)

school days (makoto. is. a. DICK. seriously, i almost died watching him fuck up everyone's lives, and i actually laughed when he had his ass handed to him by sekai (who is the best character imo) in the end. worst anime ever. very unsatisfying. i had to wash the taste of it out of my brain with ga-rei: zero)


terrible, the lot of them. there's probably some more, but these are the ones that have left lasting scars on my brain

Love Hina was pretty bad. I'd forgotten that I'd even watched Elfen Leid, so I guess that one was pretty bad, too.

I'd also say the second half of Gurren Lagann was pointless fanning about and taking the piss out of itself and its archetype of anime in general, and DBZ is a long-winded, disappointing successor to Dragon Ball, which was much better paced. But I don't consider DBZ the worst, or even bad - not for its merits as a TV show, but for what it has created

I was gonna say Love Hina and there goes awp ninja-ing me, oh well.

I tried and watch I think 3 times without dropping it, I just couldn't. It just bored the crap out of me.
Actually I think I fell asleep once while watching it

you managed to wath Love Hina to the end?

that's some nice patience you have
awp
No but I saw like 3 or 4 episodes, at least. I might have even made it to 6 or 7. It was a while back, I don't really remember...just remember it being uninteresting.

Love Hina was one of the first shows I watched all the way through when I was a young teen. I then was forced into a marathon of it last year.

Never again. Fucking haremshit.

Actually sat through that with a friend who loved it. Never watching it again ever.

Also I learned a valuable lesson in don't annoy the yaoi fangirls or they WILL put ---- on your laptop when you accidentally leave it unlocked. DON'T WATCH IT - EVER.

Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, and shonen anime unmentioned

Well the episodes are way too much, and the plot gets confusing on each episode. The whole 300+ fucking episodes are just about fights.

School Days.

Most retarded fuckingshit ever. Makoto gets every girl and impregnate all of them as if they were his bitches. Then VN is also shit as well.

Haruhi, K-ON, Lucky Star

Too overhyped. Except for kyon ;w;
I'm not that sure about Lucky Star, but the jokes are mostly understandable by Japanese and not me.

Maybe also Popotan, Cardcaptor Sakura, Tokyo Mewmew, and some lolishit as well. Sletjes.

It isn't the worst, but the most prevalent in my mind is Chaos;Head. It started out so good then just ended so badly. I sincerely hope Steins;Gate's anime adaptation fairs better.

I agree that it's overrated, but to say that one of the highest selling series ever is the worst anime you have ever seen is going a bit far.

Yeah, unfortunately they were the two Gundam series that I had a (very) brief look at and shoved it off to the side as something which is uninteresting.

Which are the better offerings?

Might give the Gundam franchise one last go without any high hopes.

1st season was very entertaining (for me), because I expected regular School Life Anime and got good story instead. Also, every character's different, so it's easy to pick up who you like and don't :-P
2nd season was... kinda boring, 'cause of Endless Eight was Endless Boredom, and the second half of the season consisted of making the movie which is prologue to 1st season... embarassing.

And the movie was very ok. Thrilling and also entertaining, in some moments even more than 1st seaon :)

G Gundam is pretty terrible from what I can recall---it used to be on Toonami when CartoonNetwork still had it and I remember watching it in like sixth grade and thinking "whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"

Ahaha, oh my.

The artist(s?) who works on the manga of 'Highschool of the Dead' was or is still (I'm unsure if he continues doing it) a hentai mangaka which explains why there's a ridiculous amount of fanservice in the title. But still there was some reasonable hope in the anime if it had stuck to the mangas plot and dialogue, some of the scenes I wanted animated turned into filth thanks to disregarding how the manga actually was.

Yosuga no Sora is something which should never have been released as an 'anime' but instead labeled as solely a hentai title. It completely blows any storyline out the door, albeit that the actual visual novel itself lacks a reasonably acceptable story itself.
Might as well add Aki Sora to that.

Ever since I hear of naruto I've stopped myself from watching it, feeling that if I do. I will end up like all those narutaruzorro ppl.
It's a horrible anime anyways but yeah. Unless you like this pointless types of anime of course
Faust
Actually, I don't see why Naruto, the anime alone and not the fans themselves, can be as bad as you guys make it out to be. : l

It's a bad habit letting other people dictate how much worth the anime is.

I've seen some parts of it though, wasted time if you ask me
Waryas
I read Bleach, Naruto and One Piece.
I'm still reading the first two out of obligation because I started them and I love One Piece.
I watch/watched the anime for all three and I refuse to say they're the worst anime ever.
I have enjoyed naruto anime during the first arcs and jumping on the bandwagon and saying "derp herp i hate shounen" is a pretty childish way to show your elitism.
Kokizi
I really liked Naruto, until I realized the show will never end.(stopped watching at early parts of shipuuden or something)
ampzz
Anime Naruto does have a conclusion coming as it seems like the manga is getting close to the end of its story, which is pretty decent now that the whole Naruto and Sasuke obsession has been put to the side for now (thankfully..) and focusing on the current war and Uchiha.

The only thing that made Naruto so bland (same with Bleach) is the pathetic filler episodes..
They both would have been so much more dominant if they didn't waste time doing filler episodes and just cut each 'arc' into a reasonable sized anime season having a break in between would've been perfectly acceptable.

But this is deriving from the topic so back on..

I'll add in Strike Witches to one of the worst anime series I've watched/seen. I honestly wish there was a solid and proven way to 'unsee' things as that would keep me sane longer.
Fumi-chan
If there's anything that needs to be unseen, it is Qwaser. (sorry Yama)
TKiller
I don't really get people who watch shows like Qwaser and tell they were bad afterwards.

Any annotation clearly says that it's a show about people with supernatural abilities who draw their power from women's breasts. And it IS a goddamn show about people with supernatural abilities who draw their power from women's breasts. Seriously, what the fuck.

You could say the same thing to anyone who for some reason watches a show from a genre they don't like. "Oh you knew this was a generic harem from the start, how can you say it's bad?". It just doesn't make it any better. If you enjoy it, though, that's perfectly fine.

Warning: Strong opinions ahead

I hated the 2006 version of Kanon (I never watched the 2002 version).
I thought it was average throughout the entire show, and then the ending came.
In the three Key animes I've watched, I absolutely hated the ending in all of them.

Kanon's ending was just stupid
Kanon spoilers
The anime managed to have emotional moments throughout the series. I was actually starting to enjoy it, and then the ending came.
It just sounded like the end of a kids' story. It absolutely ruined the plot by saying "And then everyone miraculously recovered, despite hours of lead-up to a depressing end."
The ending ruined the show for me, and it made Mai's story arc the only memorable one in the show.

Clannad: After Story was great until the ending.
AS and Clannad Movie spoilers
I didn't watch 47 episodes of a show just to find out that just about every sad moment in the show was all part of a dream.

Even though the movie removed half of the plot, it still had a much better ending than the show.

The Angel Beats ending was alright until
Angel Beats spoilers
The random five second clip at the end. I was excited for the OVA, because I thought that it would explain this. Instead, it just showed that Angel liked gardening.

Touhou... if the anime counts ....
Its only 1 episode... it hasn´t got any story... the drawings are ugly...the ending sounds like: "hey there will be a second episode waatch it too" but well i never seen one and i think there isn´t any.... maybe i am wrong and it has story and more episodes but srsly it just sucks :<

Mayoi Neko Overrun...was really terrible.

basically they thought it would be a good idea to have a different director produce each episode but what it really was a jumbled mess that didn't go anywhere. And the beginning was pretty good too, what a let down.

Still, although that's the worst anime I've seen I generally like all types of anime so I don't really hate any, just dislike a select few. :)

I concur. BGM and animation can only go so far to make it at least watchable, but the plot takes precedence of course - which was apparently neglected by the production team in the case of YnS.

Or because they have different tastes. Also, not everyone likes Bee Train girls-with-guns shows (I, for one, thought Madlax was a piece of shit and deserves to be in this thread).

I didn't even find the animation in Yosuga no Sora to be all that great. Anatomical weirdery, stilted movement, reliance on non-impressive scenery panning shots in place of actual animation at points...Yosuga no Sora was pretty unwatchable. At least 11eyes went down easily, in that 'horrible junk food' sort of sense.

Another one I should add is iDOLM@STER Xenoglossia. The original iM@S involves producing your own teen idol. This anime involves mecha. I completely disliked on how the characters were drastically changed. Pretty much the characters names were the same. (Ex: Chihaya Kisaragi in the game has a flat chest and more blue hair compared to her Xenoglossia self.)

No, i never read the synopsis of any of these animes (bad mistake) except for K-ON

- Yosuga no sora, I never knew about it but my fwnds said it's from a VN so okay, I'm a VN player myself. dropped after 6 eps, not very good at all

- KissXsis, dropped after 3 episodes. I mean, what the hell, story?

- Qwaser, 1 episode but i might give it another chance but no, not getting any better at all

- HotD, half episode

i'll never watch any fanservice filled anime. Ever. Again.
and oh yeah

- K-ON!!, second season is boring

School Days, need I say more?
Samwais
Divergence Eve, a pretty obscure one, but the fact that I only managed to survive 5 minutes of the first episode before dropping the abomination tells its own story <.<

Oh and Ikkitousen, but that one was borderline "so bad it's good".
