Definitely Bunny Girl Senpai for me. The first arc was pretty good but everything after just felt like budget Monogatari with very little charm and uninteresting characters

Steins;Gate, it seems that even people who like it think it's boring in the beginning, it just so happens that for me it was boring 'till the end.

Personnaly It's only a certain of a godd anime:
Death note after L's death ( the melo and Near arc ) was so hard to not fall asleep. Hopefully the last episode was good

Hm, I'd say Your Name.
I was more of A Silent Voice fan when these movies came out. I will admit the cinematography was great but the story didn't capture my interest as much as I wanted to QWQ

Your Lie in April. Good to see people found it as boring as I did. It's honestly an awful show, especially the slapstick "comedy".

Dragon Maid Season 2. The fights and the lore. My god, I don't care. I'm only in it for the slice of life and comedy stuff. If there's a third season I won't bother with it.

Kimetsu no Yaiba and Nagi no Asu kara. I couldn't for the life of me tell you why though, I tend to eject most memory of media I don't particularly like from my brain a little while after watching (not on purpose mind you, I guess my brain just deems it unimportant and thus dumps it), and on top of that it's been quite a while since I watched NagiAsu too.

For me it's unfortunately: Monster
Heard so much praise for it but even after watching 8 episodes I still didn't see where all of that praise was coming from, I found it rather uneventful and boring.
And since 8 episodes is basically 2/3 of an entire season for a lot/most anime nowadays, I decided to drop it at that point.

Quite the disappointing experience, since I was really looking forward to it.

Well that's the thing with monster. Once you get past the first 10-15 eps it becomes the best anime you've ever seen.
Your observation was perfect from the pov of someone who just watched the first 8 episodes but trust me, give it another try. It's definitely a 9/10

Genuinely surprised nobody here has mentioned Dragon Ball


Because (sadly) that one doesn't enjoy an 8.0+ MAL score anymore.

Mushishi

I can see how the latter two can be seen as slow-paced in a pleasant way. But man they should require a narcotics prescription!

Steins;Gate - really tested my patience until episode 16.
Gintama - if a Comedy doesnt make you laugh, it´s the epitome of boredom.
Any Makoto Shinkai movie - he should just become art director or something.
Rakugo - how is this even in the top 100.

That´s the top 100, dont have much more interest to go through more.

Slapstick comedies mostly:

Gintama
Mob Psycho 100
Saiki Kusuo no Ψ-nan
FLCL
Kill la Kill

I've disliked some other high-rated shows for other reasons, but there is nothing more boring than failed comedy.

Horimiya, it was solid but nothing special enough to justify its score. 
K-on, just not my thing 
Into the forest of fireflies' light: depends on the day but I didnt feel much after watching it, it was just pretty
My dress-up darling (put on indefinite hold because I got annoyed by the main duo)
Quintessional quintuplets. generic harem

Note: maybe I do have *mainstream taste* but non of the above fall below a 6 for me, however, I dont think they are deserving of such a high MAL score

There are a lot of 8+ ratings on here on garbage anime, which is why I don’t pay any attention to the ratings on here and I just watch what I want to watch and then figure it out for myself… what a good rating for it is.

I have fallen asleep in most of the highly rated anime on the site

Fruits Basket or a lot of Shoujo I find are generally boring or some of the iyashikei anime like Natsume. They're just not my type of anime I guess.

banana fish. only watched it till the end because i believed it will get good and interesting as it was rated 8+. i watched it when i was still a little new to anime and everything and thought everything rated high would be really good. was really disappointed.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

I agree with the top review on Tsuki ga Kirei the entire show is painfully boring and never felt like a compelling romance, or even an interesting one.
If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that.

I think it's amusing when people proudly out themselves with absolute trash takes.

There are too many bad 8+ to name, but Hyouka is king of that imo. Fruits Basket gets #2 on most boring 8+ I tried watching.

Some I can think of:
Code Geass - I won't get into this franchise in this life anymore I guess
Toradora
Bunny Girl
Monogatari
Hyouka
Clannad
... and some others.

What I don't understand myself is why I can't get into Hunter x Hunter. I do like some battle shounen but I dunno...
