Somehow I get the feeling that this is directed solely at Monogatari. In which case you have shit taste.

Or I just took the bait.

The novel is, at least as far as I can tell having only ever read the manga, decent.

Shaft's adaptation was terrible because every episode looked like it was made on a budget of 50 USD, of which at least 45 were spent buying various psychedelic substances for Akiyuki Shinbo's use.

Seriously, the music videos had better animation than the TV series.

Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou

I actually really enjoyed it, the jokes being totally stupid added to the overall hilariousness of the anime. Plus, it had some great voice acting and it totally made me nostalgic about my youth (although I'm not even 20 yet...)
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

It's a comedy anime, why should it need an overarching plot if it's main focus is to provide comedic entertainment?

People who rated it highly, probably won't agree with you.

I personally think it's just good. It's greatest fault imo is the huge inconsistency in quality, some episodes are extremely funny, while some are one of the most boring anime episodes I've ever watched. Not to mention the serious arcs, and how mediocre I find them.

I guess you could consider Monogatari pretentious because its fairly avant-garde in its presentation. Combined with some pseudo-intellectual bullshit like the whole fake being more real than the real thing and I can see it coming off as pretentious. But at the same time its a harem with lolis, incest and fan service so it kinda nullifies the pretentiousness.

There's a degree that lets you professionally proclaim anything outside of your comfort zone as pretentious. You just need to be 16 and watch Death Note to get it.

@ Topic - Aku no Hana gets some flak for this too. The art is just legitimately low budget rotoscoping that happened to compliment the tone of the show, nothing else.

Is just another way to insult something in a shallow way but at least look like you know what you're talking about.

It could come off as bit pseudo-intellectual because the whole hyperreality and simulacrum bits are thrown in and aren't really explored to that much depth, mostly because Nise was apparently a brain dump for the author so it might not even be intentionally there. I'm not hating on Monogatari, its my favorite show, but I can definitely see an argument for it being pretentious although I think that mostly hinges on the art an animation and less so the content.

I just finished the first season but it wasn't really anything above a 7/10 level (like Mushishi which is even more boring for me..). Does it get better?

I feel like Natsume has mostly the same things going for it throughout all the seasons. The atmosphere and the characters in Natsume do not change much. For me, I did not like the first season as much as the seasons after it. Maybe it's because I got used to Natsume's atmosphere or maybe it's because the stories were actually stronger. It also slowly develops something akin to a plot later on so that can be a plus for some people.

I think the style fits the show perfectly, fits nisekoi as well imo. It feels like they are allowing you to see the show through the MC's eyes at points (rather than looking over everyone), it's different but never feels pretentious, at least to me.

Most underrated anime/manga has to go to fairy tale. Most people shit on this series, especially one piece fanboys! Any time someone says something negative about their favorite series, instead of having a discussion with that person they choose the easier route to just randomly bash another series to try and feel better. I also don't know why people like one piece more than fairy tale, one piece has a lot of friendship power up talks as well.

Overrated. I think I will have to go with One piece. I don't see anyone with half a brain would give this series anything more than a 6. Only little children should really enjoy it and give it scores above 6. I showed my doctor a clip of one piece and he told me it was for people that are either retarded or just have some brain problem, he said the silliness in it help calm down mentally retarded people. After hearing that I am scared of how this world will be if there are so much retards in this world.
*Checks SetsukoHara favorite list.* has one piece as favorite in manga section. Confirm op fanboy. Tries to change subject because I'm talking negative about his favorite series. One piece fanboy logic detected.

I'll bite the bait One Piece has a well thought out story that has continuity as well as planning. fairy Tail is just one random arc after the next and with an overarching story of dragons/an evil wizard that gets crammed in whenever convenient. The characters in OP are silly because it's a mostly lighthearted adventure. fairy Tail's characters are silly because sex and stock characters sell.

I don't know what your beef with one piece is, but the characters are supposed to be dumb for comical purposes.

with your logic Gintama is the worst anime in the history of anime because literally every single character can be classified as mentally retarded.
