Same as I said for HunterHearts, pick up One Piece. That talking reindeer is f**king awesome like every other member of the Straw Hat crew.

And as for your choices, .hack//Sign is one of the most boring things I have ever seen, and I already read the manga for Chobits so I have no need to watch the inferior anime to completion. I will give Blue Gender another chance though.

I love Hanasaku Iroha to death, though if you still don't like it by the halfway point you may not like it at all.

@ Bob_Squob

If anything I think you should reconsider Arakawa under the Bridge not saying that it even comes close to the masterpiece of comedy that is Gintama, although it shares the surpricefactor of randomness which in some episodes can make you laugh out loud.

I'm here to tell you to drop more anime. You've only dropped Ergo Proxy (I don't blame you for dropping it, it seems like a niche title), there is something wrong with you :P

@ TheLostProphet

Shinryaku! Ika Musume. You rated it a 7 so it can't be that bad. It gets better, especially in the second season.

@RLinksoul

Samurai Champloo. You obviously liked Cowboy Bebop, so you should like this aswell. I don't think a score of 6 warrants a show to be dropped. Pretty much everyone who saw this loved it, and I can't see why you dropped it. Something to look forward to is the finale, it's really good, and you get to learn more about Mugen and Jin's past and that's really interesting

@PuppyFucker

Lucky Star. Although it is slightly repetitive, I believe the humor gets stronger at around that point when all the new characters come in.

@littner

xxxholic. its art may be a bit weird, but to be honest all it takes is a little getting used to. the story is pretty good too. also, go for the dub, its better than the original imo. colleen clinkenbeard does an excellent job portraying yuuko.

@kukojo

Can't really make an argument for any of those to get a second shot. I think the're al just fine dropped.

@lordzeru
Death Note gets more captivating after a few episodes and it's full of plot twists, for me it's just amazing anime. And the potato chip scene is legendary (yes, it might have been too much, but still) :D

And also Kuroshitsuji, for me it was an enjoyable show. There is no yaoi by the way, it's hardly a shounen-ai, but well. If you can overcome the fanservice, it has a lot of interesting characters and arcs.

@KingLear: Tbh, pretty much all the anime you dropped vary from boring to bad.
You could give Hakushaku to Yousei another try. It's decent.

@Motion_Menace

Give Brave10 another try. It's pretty good.

@stanklem28

not sure how far into your dropped anime you got but i would definitely try durarara! and mawaru penguindrum again. both pretty psychological but really brilliant. but if it's not your thing, that's fair enough!

@bbyclawz Lucky Star, just sit through the next two episodes, and it gets really enjoyable after that.

@AceFront
You dropped FMA 2003 halfway through? I'm guessing it's because that's the major divergence point, but I'd still suggest watching it. It's its own thing, it's not as actiony as Brotherhood or the manga for sure, but I think it's still damn fine anime.

@FallnKnightFakir Yeah, I'll give it another go, when my backlog isn't as chaotic as it is.

Give One Piece more of a chance. It starts to get really good around episode 35.

Just dropped madoka magica yesterday. I could barely make it to episode 6. Don't think I can take 6 more.

^ The above user hasn't dropped any so I can't really say.

And whoever does me next, please don't say Bakemonogatari or else I'm going to scream. Watching that crap for 5 episodes was enough to make me develop acid reflux.

@nitchi
Gintama is without doubt my favourite comedy. The first episodes are a bit weak, but it gets a lot better after a few episodes and with the first serious arc to come. You should give it a 2nd chance.
