| Ganbare Genki is my hidden gem, easily. And hidden trash... hm... I guess it's still Chou Kuse ni Narisou. I have no idea how long I spent trying to torrent this specific anime, just to witness the most cheaply animated trash I've ever seen, barring Twinkle Nora Rock Me!. |

| Really enjoyed watching https://myanimelist.net/anime/57663/Kui_Cheng_Shoufu_Cong_Youxi_Kaishi despite its lack of popularity in the west. I bet there's a lot more decent chinese anime that fly under everyone's radar. Hidden trash, well let's just say I watch a lot of them. Just sort my list by rating and look at shit I rated 1 or 2. There's a good reason my average score is barely above 3. |
| A Traveller's Diary is my favorite collection of shorts, and Glass Mask is the most obscure of my favorites. Senjuushi is my hidden trash, with this dating sim as a close second... But there are any more. |

| @JoeChip "akshually, there is no such things as chinese animation, only chinese animation ☝️🤓" That's why back in the days we used the superior "japanimation" term :p |

| Hidden gem: Kita e.: Diamond Dust Drops Because the atmosphere is nice and it gives off early 2000s vibes. Plus it's set in Hokkaido, and I like Hokkaido. But I would not say it's actually super amazing. A super amazing fantasy anime imo is: Mahou Senshi Louie Whenever the big D&D anime "Record of Lodoss War" is mentioned, this show is sometimes also mentioned. It's set in the same world but it's a lot more lighthearted and comedic. Hidden Trash: Platonic Chain An early 3d anime. It's not complete garbage, but in my opinion it's difficult to watch it as a person in 2024. Though I will say, there are nice 2000s futurism vibes in it. So, for a niche group of people, it's intriguing. But for most people, it'll be trash. |

| enlighten us then how my usage of the word semantics was wrong, also enlighten us about the important distinction between chinese anime and chinese animation |
| That anime is... Well, 32k members isn't thaaaaaat bad, but it still deserves more. Especially since we adults don't get much shows to watch.

| Hidden gems for me would be Video Girl Ai and Venus Wars. They're from decades ago and I rarely hear people talk about them, but I really enjoyed both. Hidden trash describes pretty much anything made before the 1950s-1960s. They're just too primitive for my taste. Same thing with fully 3D anime, especially from the 1990s-2000s when 3D animation was in its infancy. |

| Gem: https://myanimelist.net/anime/1082/Hikari_to_Mizu_no_Daphne I don't get why the characters dress the way they do, but the show is great. Trash: https://myanimelist.net/anime/17513/Diabolik_Lovers I am commuting a sin just by mentioning this. |

And hidden trash... hm... I guess it's still Chou Kuse ni Narisou. I have no idea how long I spent trying to torrent this specific anime, just to witness the most cheaply animated trash I've ever seen, barring Twinkle Nora Rock Me!.

Huh, I thought Chou kuse ni narisou was fun from what I’ve seen. Maybe it gets worse, idk, but I had a fun time with the earlier episodes, maybe because I thought the music was good idk. Scared of twinkle Nora though Ot: Hidden gems: Irresponsible captain Tylor and Future boy Conan Hidden trash: DNA2, PPGZ |

@AverageRiceFan I also like Chou Kuse ni narisou it reminds me of Goldfish Warning,maybe because of the comedy is not for everyone and the anime quality on low quality I wish someone enchance a little bit and complete sub that will be fine.
| @Kirika_Madeleine @AverageRiceFan Kinda odd for us to have differing opinions here, given our generally strong overlap everywhere else. I don't really remember much about my first watchthrough anymore, outside of the comedy not landing for me at all, the voice acting being grating, and the animation really not showing the best of what the '90s is known for. Though I'm dead serious with the torrent time, which I think was like a month and a half to three months to get anything out the borderline dead torrent on Nyaa, and a very unlucky laptop having to be sitting there patiently waiting the whole month plus, waiting for literally anybody to send even a few kilobytes of it. Potentially me dealing with the deadest torrent I've ever successfully torrented had an effect on my expectations. 🙄 |

| Gems: Selection Project has the fewest members of all my 10s. I've seen it called an Idoly Pride ripoff, and while it does reuse a few plot points and character archetypes, I think SelePro is just vastly better. Healer Girl and Scorching Ping Pong Girls are also rather overlooked - both solid 9s for me. Trash: Hate to mention a few earlier commenters' gems, but I couldn't stand Hanada Shounen-shi and Yuri Kuma Arashi. I've only ever dropped 3 shows, and those are 2 of them. |
| I will not tell you such confidential information on here...ok just joking. I have no hidden gem nor any hidden trash. That is why I cannot answer your question. |
| You're missing something if you think hidden trash works counter to hidden gem |
| If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that. |
| Hidden Gem: Aria series. Hidden Trash: Dark Cat. |
