Even if I am part of onii-sama worship, I would want to know how anime would be without him. Just for a day.

It would be like a burger without cheese. Or a Kirito without hacks.

Oh, I forgot about Uiharu and Saten from Toaru Kagaku no Railgun. My God, I watched Railgun to see Mikoto being badass, and instead I get these two stupids who you could remove from the series and nothing would change. While Uiharu is just a bit annoying, Saten and her whole angst of "I don't have powers, my life sucks!" was painful to watch, and I found her habit of make fun of Uiharu's pants extremely annoying and unfunny. Her only saving grace is her cute design.

The fact that they added a lot of filler during the series who consisted in they eating sweets and doing boring stuff doesn't helps at all. In fact, that the best arc of Railgun (the Sisters arc) is the one when they becomes terthiary characters speaks a lot about their presence in the series.

whaaaaaaat onodera best girl !!

i've only seen the first season of Nisekoi though.

And that's a good reason to remove her from the show, she's too cute to be a part of a harem.

Nah shes bloody annoying. she is the reason the show pisses me off majority of the time. I don't want to say to much as i would spoil the story.

biba from kabaneri
yuki from future diary
black beard from one piece
thougt girl from danganronpa

I feel Blackbeard is making the show interesting. He's the kind of stupid overly strong antagonist needed. He takes advantage of his opportunities and does what most pirates would do to gain power. I see nothing wrong with him betraying WhiteBeard as pirates are known to do such.

I disagree, Rem is too bloody clingy. How can you like someone like that? I know Subaru is her hero and everything but man, she should take a chill pill and give the dude some space. She seems to get more annoying to me as the episodes go by. she should get over him, since we all know she's second choice. It like she's his support pillar and i feel that's pretty unrealistic, judging by how subaru has been acting.

Hmmm... I would like an adaptation of Fate/Prototype and I like Shirou, but the image of Ayaka meeting FSN Archer sounds cool.

How would Subaru get past stage 1 or even meet Rem?

I know my real answer now. The new teacher from This Art Club has a Problem (easier to remember in english). They should have kept the old guy. The opening sums up her entire character and that's not a good thing if it is like 12 seconds and half of it is a still shot of her in a bathing suit.

"5" from terror in resonance.

She ruined a good show.


Ill sign up here. Zankyou no Terror could have been a very good show, like a 9, wihout Five. Sadly she is important and appears a lot so the series ends up preety bad. I gave it a 7 just to suport the potential that was lost.

Whether it's because this character annoys you, or you want to make the show slightly better.
Personally, and i'll think some people will agree with me:

Edit:- Also please tell why with appropriate spoilers.

Shimotsuki Mika from Psycho Pass 2: She was more useless than one of the pens on Ginoza's desk.


After just finishing Psycho Pass 2 today, I second this (surprised more haven't voiced assent..). One of the most useless and anime destroying characters I've seen in a long time. Only positive is that she has 11 favorites, relative to the other Main Characters from the Psycho Pass series having 3-5k favorites.. So MAL knows whats up atleast.

Why anime have terrible characters in the first place? Do otakus think they can create badass characters if they just Gary Stu them to death? These otakus don't know what true experience is if they sitting their asses every day.

anime has bad character because people don't know how to write good. That's why.
Shinji's fine im the first 2/3s and in the rebuilds, but that last part and EoE are just awful, he keeps regressing back to a useless turd. And let's be real, even if you like Shinji, the other characters are way better.

Those would have been high on my list as well. However after watching Death Notes clone Psycho-Pass, including having a good full first season of 22-24, followed by an atrocious 2nd season of 1 cour 11 odd episodes, that would no longer be appropriate. Psycho Pass managed to get drastically worse main characters and character regression, namely in the form of Mika. It also got rid of BOTH main characters for its disastrous S2, as opposed to DN only having lost the 1..

I don't know, I could at least ignore Lisa, but Five was front and center, acting like an over-the-top cartoonish campy villain, in a show that until she was introduced was trying to be fairly realistic. It was too jarring.


Lol dude. Lisa cannot be ignored since at least half the time, she fucked up there plans and had to get saved for complete dumbass ar least twice. She is front and center because she is a retard lol. Five could have been good but they fucked her up with the little time she had on screen. We could had seen proper character development from her if so much time wasn't spent on Ms Useless

Maybe I should re-watch the show, because she didn't really bother me all that much the first time around. I saw her more as someone who brought some amount of normalcy to 9 and 12's lives, which is something they craved their entire lives. Probably why I was a bit more forgiving towards her, even though she might have been an annoying damsel in distress.

That show had promise the first episode or two then, as soon as she was introduced i dropped the show. Its really mediocre show now in all honesty. I actually didn't understand what was going anymore.

No I mean more interesting, if I meant fappable able I would have said that. Rei's in a situation where her whole world has been created by commander Ikari, she doesn't start acting human until another person, Shinji, reaches out to her and her transition from robot-like to human is one of my favorite parts of the show, it's the same reason I love Pino from Ergo Proxy. Asuka, unlike most characters of her type, has a reason to act that way. She's a prodigy and has to deal with people who she can reasonably see as inferior. It takes a long time for we to accept that other people can be part of her team and that she doesn't have to do everything on her own is also one of my favorite parts of the show. Shinji is the poster child for depression, I don't mind depressed characters or "pussy" MCs, I loved Tsukimoto, Satou, Simone, Shinji's problem isn't that he's depressed, it's that it's his entire personality and the way they go about showing that he's depressed is obnoxious. I feel like the authors beating me over the head with how worthless and depressed he is, and instead of giving him real character development in the end, we get those last two episodes (and yes, I know Anno ran out of money) and EoE where his "character development" takes place inside his head in a series of nonsensical fever dreams.
