| It's the worst show that I've ever seen if there are no other anime that I dislike more than it. It doesn't really require any further contemplation to me at least. Currently it's Mars of Destruction, and if I never had exposed my eyes to that shit it would've been Mirai Nikki. |
| If I dropped the show then it practically spoke "worst series ever" out to me. ( And I totally agree with u about sword art online btw) |

phs_togusa said: Forgetfulness said: By the way, I hope you know that School Days is a deconstruction of harem anime and it's supposed to be like that. The characters aren't unlikable because of poor writing, but rather because that was the whole fucking point Wasn't it a visual novel/manga adaptation? If I recall correctly, the manga and the visual novels are much more tame than the actual anime itself. No, i think that the anime is just one of the endings taken straight out of the VN. the visual novel has alot of bad endings too. |
| Bad writing, characters, and all that other stuff can be part of a bad anime, but for something to be the worst, it has to go beyond all that. The key is to be insulting to watch. I think the worst kind would be the ones where the anime is trying to be smart or address serious, real life issues and completely drop the ball. It makes the show a joke and it makes everyone involved seem like incompetent idiots trying to cash in on controversy. In essence, it transcends being a bad anime and becomes animated trash. Fortunately, I have yet to see anything on this level yet. Just as the "perfect" anime is difficult to achieve, the "perfectly bad" anime has to be truly special to out perform all the other bad anime out there. |
Forgetfulness said: No they just adapted all the routes at the same time with the bad ending. To make my point clearer, take Yotsuga no sora or whoever you spell that, all the routes were adapted but after each route the story would reset like it's supposed to happen, since Eroges work like that. This was hardly an attempt for a realistic harem, because why would any of these stupid girls sleep with Makoto if it's supposed to be realistic? if we stretch it Kotonha and Serki only made sense like any other cliche love triangle out there. The show was just like any other stupid American highschool drama, except with an extreme dramatic ending and only 2 male characters instead of more. The show just happens to show the extreme consequences of cheating. A deconstruction was not the intention. I'm forgetting some other reasons but that's the jist of it. |

| For me, it's when the anime clearly isn't more than an advertisement and doesn't do anything but give you the bare minimum to understand it to try to get you to purchase the source material. Like mother fucking pupa. phs_togusa said: Give it up, buddy. OreGairu is a deconstruction of slice-of-life/romantic comedy. Madoka Magica is a deconstruction of magical girl anime. Neon Genesis Evangelion is a deconstruction of mecha anime. The one thing they all have in common is that they're all great anime with likeable characters (if you can excuse the trainwreck that was Shinji). I'm no expert on the subject, but I'm not sure a deconstruction would be possible if you had the most unlikeable characters ever constructed. Lol, ignoring shinji. School days is fucking amazing and the characters are more likable and believable than any character in NGE. Having unlikeable characters disqualifies something as a deconstruction? I've heard a lot of arguments about why school days isn't a deconstruction, but this is quite possibly one of the worst. |

Forgetfulness said: AzuStar said: Well the thing is that I'm pretty sure not doing anything with multiple girls a predominant trait in harem anime, so School Days stands out. And I've already said that I'm pretty sure I've used the word wrong, so my badthere are alot of harems that have more than one thing unique to them. but that doesn't mean they are deconstructions too. well, in actuality, in every harem, the boys do alot with the girls, it just usually isn't sex (unless hentai), so in that regard, School days is different... until white album i think. |
| You again. -_- I'm pretty sure you're the same person that was on the Crunchy roll forum talking bullshit about popular series. Including my favourite SNK. I see you still have that habit of writing long ass paragraph for people to read. On to the topic. If the story, characters art and animation, sound are terrible then it's a terrible series. Only fan service and some romance could save it from being my worst anime ever. XD |

That's not really part of the premise of harem. Many Seinen harem trash manga have the MC sleeping around. There is sex because School days is an adaption of an eroge, same as Yotsuga no sora. |

My score wasn't brought down because I didn't like her, but because that scene was very clumsily done. I've done the route that scene was supposedly adapting, and the anime didn't do a very good job. |

| It doesn't take much actually, as I watch series that are generally highly rated or interest me in some way. I'm not willing to put myself through something that everyone hates or gets bad word of mouth. That being said, among the worst I've watched are Clannad, FLCL, Anohana and Air. For movies it would be Disappearance of Haruhi Suzmiya. Sword Art Online gets a lot of hate, but was still for the most part more interesting than those. |

| A) it's not entertaining B) artistically, it's horribly executed |
| 1. The Story was badly written and I didn't like it 2. The characters were 1 dimensional and unlikable 3. The series had shoddy technical specs (animation, pacing, music, etc.) 4. The series failed to get me to care about anything that happened or anybody 5. The ending did not satisfy me, or it didn't even end at all and left a bunch of mysteries I wanted solved left hanging gets it a 2 if it's an anime. 1 is a special place in the lowest depths rating hell reserved for awful mind-scarring, rage-inducing hentai. |

| Lol at school days being the worst anime ever. I didn't know that having sex with a lot of girls = worst person ever. They are probably just jealous of makoko. And School Days is not a deconstruction, just a good ass anime that goes against the grain. On topic. It has to be something with no redeeming qualities like Anohana or Sword Art Online, or Infinite Stratos. It just has to be shit in almost every way. |

| As a fan of Mirai Nikki this saddens me. Although I can't deny that it's shitty. I'd say 'worst anime ever' is a stretch. It still has pretty good entertainment value, which is more than I can say about some other shows *cough* diabolik lovers *cough* |

| Remember the thread is not about which anime has the highest rating or not, so let's not go off-topic. |
