| I don't know why, but I can never seem to bring myself to watch a Ghibli movie. They look interesting but something just keeps making me avoid them. |

| Everybody has to watch at least one Ghibli movie, they're like the Disney films of Japan but waaaay better (and I love a good Disney film). I can't watch One Piece, I just find the art absolutely atrocious and painful to watch but that's probably because I grew up in a house of GITS lovers so I'm accustomed to a certain kind of art (read vaguely realistic). |

Code Geass' art is not close to "vaguely realistic", so how come there's no problem there? Maybe you just hate it for the sake of hating it? And on another note, Disney movies are still better than Ghibli one's by and large. There's only 1 or 2 Ghibli films that even stand out to be used for any sort of comparison. |

Its just your fighting thing. Ah, okay. I just saw your post and I thought it was weird expecting something from title alone and highly disappointed from the assumption you made yourself. Not that you are wrong but it's really weird since lots of anime titles make no sense in english (and most of the time I thought they just want to make the titles sound cool). If you think the title should be enough to tell the premise, I suggest you to watch anime with tl;dr title like My Girlfriend and Childhood Friend Fight Too Much, Even With Eighth Grader Syndrome I Want to Be in Love, or My Mental Multiple-Choice Power Is Completely Ruining My School Romantic Comedy. Your assumption won't miss. This might be off topic but I just want to confirm something. About One Piece, did you watch the 4kids version? |
| I don't think I even want to try Naruto so many people say it becomes awful I don't think I can be bothered putting myself through that besides I'm watching enough long ass things rn maybe if I'm desperate one day I'll do it but I doubt that |

You might have only seen the old episodes I guess, http://adala-news.fr/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/One-Piece-anime-2013.jpg , here the "style" of the most recent ones. I don't like the style of the first episodes of One Piece either, though I'm now a big fan. ^PrincessLove, you're right, don't start. |

| I don't watch anime that has a lot of episodes. I don't watch Mecha and Card Game as well, and also anything that is same-gender romance. Here are my reasons: "Draggy" Anime My experience of watching Naruto and One Piece has made me realised that I was wasting my time. The episodes usually drag and drag - e.g. multiple flashbacks, unnecessary fillers, wasting time on showing the "shocked" expression of the characters. Therefore, I would not watch any anime with a lot of episodes - unless if the plot is interesting and no unnecessary fillers, like Kingdom. Mecha I don't find robots fighting with each other to be interesting. The characters might as well fight against each other without having to resort to use robots. Card Game Card Game anime is, to me, pretty boring. This anime is usually targeted to kids, so maybe this is the reason why I don't watch it. Also, I have no interest in card games (I don't even know how to play Poker), maybe that is another reason. Same-Gender Romance This is pretty obvious. I find them disgusting. |

tetrix1993 said: Anime with a lot of episodes (e.g. more than 100), especially Naruto, One Piece and Hunter X Hunter. These three anime have way too much fillers (i.e. anime-exclusive episodes, except Hunter X Hunter), and also I feel that each episode is 'draggy' - e.g. the characters keep having multiple flashbacks; the hero and the enemy keep talking and talking, but there is only one fighting scene in a single episode; the characters are "shocked" for some major thing that happened and wasted a lot time (e.g. One Piece - Hody's appearance made the soldiers and townspeople to be shocked, and the anime keep showing each and every one's shocked face and wasted a lot of time). The OP is also more than the usual 1.5 minutes, wasted a lot of time) The manga is also getting boring and 'draggy' as well. There are exceptions though. If a long series anime is very interesting and is not 'draggy' like One Piece and Naruto, I would watch it. One example would be Kingdom. Excellent plot, no fillers and straight to the point. I also don't watch Mecha. >Watched it >Refuse to watch Wut? |

Its an old quote that is miserable in today's generation. And anime included. That is, the title shouldn't precisely pick something of all things to expect (such as killing...) and put the exact opposite (...and fanservice) inside the content. I can't tell which version of One Piece I watched, but even if it wasn't the 4kids version, I doubt there'll be more to it than maybe innuendo and better dialogue, and the dialogue isn't going to help me in watching One Piece either. |

skyzblue said: yhunata said: skyzblue said: Yhuuro said: skyzblue said: I tried Fairy FAIL...couldn't get past 2 episodes. I tried One Piece. It has a really mediocre first episode. Maybe battle shounen isn't really for me.. =/ Yes it could be that it isn't your thing, but I wouldn't judge OP by having watched just 1 episode. It has a slow developing story but that also means Oda put a lot of effort into setting up and explaining vast and intricate way the world of OP works. I thought that too. The problem is that, it has like 600 episodes. Tbh, it's not that I hated it, I just don't know how much episodes will it take to actually get into a sort of faster pace. Maybe you could read the manga. You can easily get to the Arlong arc the day you start and if you don't like that arc, it's likely that you won't like much of One Piece. P.S. if it's pacing, just know that out of the Big 3, One Piece is the worst (though the snail-pacing doesn't start until around episode 350+) Slow pace will do just fine (quite a number of great anime has that trait), just don't want things to stay dull as it is.. actually i doubt op is ever dull in the earlier episodes,it's during the ph arc that an episode can go by with little to nothing happening |

I disagree completely. Almost all Ghibli movies are as good (or even better) as any of Disney efforts. And i'm a huge Disney fan, i've watched all of their movies. But still Ghibli has something else, an extra flavor into their productions that Disney lacks. Pixar and Don Bluth's movies from the 80s such as The land before time, American Tail and The Secret of NIMH are the closest to this extra feeling Ghibli has in my opinion. Disney is amazing, put animation on another level in terms of quality back in the time, but many studios have accomplished better works in the past 40 years |

| An anime that i imagine i may like a lot, but i'm discouraged to keep watching is Gintama. I've watched the first two episodes and they were so boring that i almost fell asleep. I know that they are filler, but the biggest obstacle is that i've read throughout the internet it only gets acceptably good after a large bunch of episodes and no matter how mesmerizing it 's likely to become further on, i don't think i'll make it, so i'm not intending to endure it |
Kaimon237 said: The whole "filler" argument just seems like a real nitpicky excuse to dock points from a series,tbh It goes both ways. Fanboys will also use it to claim that's the only criticism and the actual content is perfection. |

| Bar some very few exceptions, I refuse to watch any: - Super long-running series - Sports anime - Extremely old series (unless they have like revolutionary art style for their time maybe) - Yaoi aaand that's probably all, other than that it's more a matter of getting around to watching shit *eventually* |
