What's an anime that is generally bad but you just enjoy it for some strange reason?

Probably the single best and most fitting example of this in my case is the series Hanebado! It's just so melodramatic, trashy, and over the top in the extreme way the main girl and numerous characters within it behave and react to everything and goes so beyond the realm of serious focus on badminton for what looked like a run-of-the-mill sports series on the surface. But I can't not love it. As even outside the context of badminton, sports series, and anime itself, outlandishly over the top teen melodramas were something I always got a kick out of in general.

Oh, and by the way, regarding this:



"AD" in this context refers to Anime Discussion, which is the name of a sub-forum. One which is useful and utilized for posting about anime as a whole (as in, the medium of anime itself), for comparing popular trends and styles and seasons and years in anime or different series between one another, discussion on the influence of certain anime, personal favorites and critiques and generalized views and dialogue that isn't hyper-specific and limited to only one series or film, for which all the individual series and films included in the database (in some cases even individual seasons of the same series when they are broken up and categorized that way in the database, special separately released episodes, and even some animated music videos and commercials and other specialty content like that) have their own sub-forums, most quickly accessed via their (the series/film-specific) database webpage on MAL.

You posted this on the Anime & Manga Recommendations sub-forum, which is most often and most appropriately used by users to request from other users specific titles of anime or manga which they would recommend watching based on what that user (you, in this case) is seeking and their criteria. It's not really a place to ask users other non-strictly recommendation-related inquiries or to facilitate a larger and broader discussion. There's no real harm done except that it might go missed and unseen by a larger share of users who don't frequent every single sub-forum (who, for example, might only regularly browse the AD sub-forum) and sometimes a moderator will notice it after the fact and move it to a more appropriate location for that reason and to keep things organized.

All of the sub-forums - AD, this one (Anime & Manga Recommendations), etc. - are all just subsets of the MAL forum as a whole. I don't know which type of internet browser and computer or device you're using to access and navigate the website, but you can normally see whichever given sub-forum you're in at the time in the header in the whitespace above the list of threads displayed or a new thread you're creating.
