Made this thread because the underrated/overrated thing kinda skips things that are underwatched. Not necessarily underrated or overrated, but just kind of underwatched or underknown(if thats a word). So pick some things that you feel needs more attention. Or more people to know it exist

Kurozuka - definitely underwatched, I feel it was one of the best anime to come out this yr. Everything was executed perfectly imo..only ranked 740# >.< It just ended last month so go watch it NOW

Ga-Rei Zero - Self-explanatory

Casshern Sins - why does nobody EVER mention this? It has something that guys and chicks both like. It's BEAUTIFUL. Sometimes it's really soft and dramatic and other times it's action and lots of fighting. I highly recommend more people to watch it

can you explain to me how a show that's underrated would not be underwatched? because that's generally what being underrated implies...I know at least ANN would agree with me on this

and lol how's the poll relevant?

Case in point: Aria the Origination. #4 ranked overall but only less than 5,000 people have seen it. Can't be underrated because it's rated so highly, but it's definitely underwatched.

As for this thread, Manabi. God why don't more people watch Manabi ><

Poll is random.
I interpret underrated as something that is not given the credit it deserves. Whether alot of people watch or hardly anybody watches it.

Underwatched doesn't necessarily mean something does or doesn't get the credit it deserves by the people who watch it, rather it means simply more people don't watch it

I'd say Kanon 2002, alot of people just ignore it solely because of the animation

i think a lot of people stay away from urusei yatsura because it's so old but it's been called the best show of it's era by a lot of different people and i can't say it's the best of it's era b/c it's older than me but it is really funny and enjoyable

Not that everyone would "get" it, but more than 186 people should watch it, damn.

Yeah the animation does sucks, but i believe it's worth it.
The voice actors are pretty much the same as the 2006 ver(except Yuuichi),
The BGM is about the same as the 2006 ver, but the op and ed are different.

And because the KyoAni version tells the story much much MUCH better? Though I concede 2002 has the better ending.

I think your definition of underrated simply means you disagree with other people but w/e, thread gets benefit of the doubt and can stay

Oh god yes I agree with you, but NANA had a abrupt ending because they caught up to the manga, more will be released as soon as the manga finishes, acording to the creator.

Otogizoushi!

That anime is really awesome but not very many people have watched it :<

and Sisters of Wellber, Ayatsuri Sakon, Bartender, Hitohira, Kaikan Phrase, Mokke and Rose of Versailles. RoV is really old but it's very good. I wish there was a remake of it with better animation and sound

and Narutaru is kind of underwatched, I think..

Wasn't there another topic like this. Where did that go?

edit: oh wait it's the "I wish more people knew about _____"
Similar, but different I guess.

In that case, I'd say Legend of the Galactic Heroes is definitely under watched.
Only 2142 people have seen it. :(

It got locked because it was "half" of the overrated/underrated thread. I didn't think it was the same but, mods own us all

There is definaly a problem with people attention whoring on these forums by creating the same topic over and over again.
