Mine was no.6; the story wasn't that amazing in the first place but the ending made it even worse.

"the story line isn't good" is basically a boring anime and I watched quite a lot of them.

Akuma no Riddle, All Out!!, Chouyoyuu, Devil Survivor 2 The Animation, Dive!!, Divine Gate, Glasslip, Isekai Cheat Magician, Pop in Q, Seijo no Maryoku wa Bannou Desu (not really boring but it's really mediocre), Shakunetsu Kabaddi, Tatoeba Last Dungeon, W'z

(Maybe there're more)

- NOT your usual shounen anime
- Pure comedy? DEAD WRONG
- Treat Gintama as SoL/weekly sitcom especially earlier seasons
- Ep 1 & 2 are for manga readers
- BIG patience for its 'slow' start

I can't enjoy generic shounen anime much. To be honest, I really wanted to enjoy JJK, but compared to other anime I watched, it didn't entertain me nearly as much as I wanted it to

I'm not a big shounen fan either but I loved the characters and animation
I can't believe you weren't hyped by jjk of all things

Takt OP
Fena Pirate Princess

I watched these for the sake of completion and animation was good, overall very hollow as few of them started good but ended on very "meh" note.
2025 might be the year where I will be happy. This year is not happy year.

That's most of what I've seen. Very few of the anime I've seen have amazing storylines. Even the anime I love aren't the best in terms of story.

The story was kinda ok types but I must say the adaptation was jaw-dropping.
Literally the animation and osts/ops/eds were all top tier.
Loved it even more on my rewatch!

Yeah many times I complete a boring anime because I like to complete what I watch.

I had to force my way through Mushoku tensei and its horrible story line because one of my friends told me watch it and it had only 11 episodes. I kind of regret watching it.
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.

wow............... That's the opposite of my view
I think he is the most talented writer I've come across with all the mystery, foreshadowing and detail in the story
I have to view Aot up to 8 times to fully appreciate what he did

I'm surprised someone can think he isn't a good writer

absolute retared and extremely hardcore aot haters right here. Aot is one of if not the greatest story anime of the decade Along with vinland saga, Monogatari and 3 Gatsu no lion.
Aot has some banger and absolutely top Tier plot twist, foreshadowing,story,main character arc,one of them complex shonen if not the most complex yet.

Back Arrow um it was the most whatever story line of 2021. I can't say it was boring enough to drop it. Nor can I say it was shitty enough to drop it. It was border line both and although I finished it, I still don't know how I managed that. All I know is I rated it LOW.
