Mine is Gintama.. but as was mentioned earlier, it gets better after 10 - 20 episodes.

I have seen a lot of clips from the show and I know see that is funny, but I think right now I just don't have the time to watch it.

But popular = good to the majority of people who saw it.

so good = popular. At least in the context of what OP is asking.

I dont know I just don't like it.


S A M E. I think it has to do with the fact that I hate brainless action without a deep plot. During the second half where all the political stuff started happening I thought it was great! But no. Then it went back to brainless action.


I completely agree, I felt that it was just too brainless. Another thing that I hate is just how they use the Gunmen; they just will it to work. It takes no real skill, no training involved, just wanting to fight really bad. I appreciate it when shounens show the characters getting stronger and improving their skills. In my eyes, the show just wanted to keep getting bigger and more over the top, which is the only reason you see Simon keep pulling out crazier and crazier attacks out of his ass. And who could forget the Gunmen inception at the end?

But on a personal note, I mainly dislike TTGL because I saw Evangelion right before it, which is its polar opposite.

I honestly think that most people who say they love the show or say it's a masterpiece is because they turn their brain off; they sit back and just enjoy the action and emotion (however hollow it may be). The show even tells you to throw away your logic, because it knows how stupid it is.

thats understandable, the length is a huge turn off, the fact i even started it surprises me, im glad i did but still. for that matter how the fuck did i start one piece?

Utena, its the lowest rated anime on my list when I know it isn't that bad, it's just that it was a really big hassle to to get through. I found it annoying and repetitive. I've seen things about 50 times dumber and I still didn't have a harder time getting through it than Utena.

I'm sure it isn't really dislike, but don't plan to watch .. Possibly since I don't find it interesting enough.
Like, you have to copy and paste it on my HDD to make me watch them..
An example of such anime is Accel World.

I do watch season 1 for some anime, yet don't plan to watch the sequels due to them being so different than it should be, e.g. Shakugan no Shana and Zero no Tsukaima.

I'm sorry i dont care what show it is, even if its something i hate as much as code geass

But not watching a show based off hype is utterly retarded on so many levels its not even funny.

You mean Code Geass R2, guys? Because I heard it's become more atrocious in so many levels later on which gets me confused & makes wanna clinch my fist in anger.

Redline- Story was simple and animation was really good, can see the amount of effort put in by the producers. But not really into sci-fi and the aliens turned me off.

Hahaha! I see i've caught your attention; I meant my interest, hype has killed any interest I had in watching it.
Besides people constantly yelling out spoilers on why it is so good made it so I don't even need to watch it anyway.

It's "sexist"
It's ridiculous
Brief yaoi undertones
They're too Hipster for anything "mainstream"
MC is a dick
Misa is obnoxious
Unrealistic
The characters' logic is too convoluted
Trivial things are blown out of proportion
Pseudo deep
Useless religious symbolism


I love Death Note, it's my favorite of all time. But it's easy to see why some people would dislike it.

I honestly dont see why people would enjoy it so when out of the given context of the current day anime industry.
Why you didn't listen, don't you want to live a real life, a life not centred around false hopes and disappointments? "Grow up", move on, you are not a kid any-more, its time to be someone. Apathy is death, worse than death.

I don't understand the question. ''Which Anime you like'' <-- this is simply an opinion based question, so if I don't like some Anime then it's not a good anime, but of course it'd be different if you meant ''Anime that others like but you don't'', so I guess that's what you're asking.

I don't have this kind of disconnect. If I dislike an Anime, I don't think it is good. But there are plenty of anime that other people like, that I dislike. Gintama comes to mind right away, also the aria series

I don't understand why so many people are having trouble understanding "anime that you know is good but you dislike." I think that Higurashi is a highly creative, original, brilliant piece of work overall, with some great ideas, however I am very impatient with shows so the whole time-loop thing didn't suit me as I found myself becoming very bored. It also has issues with explaining what the hell is going on.

Likewise, I think Toradora is a breath of fresh air in the romantic comedy genre, but all the "wah, my crush likes someone else what on earth will I do? pissed me off because I've never given a second thought to love in real life. Other teenagers will probably relate to it much more than I do. It's a matter of perspective, shows that don't "click" with you personally but are still high quality.

For me, I think anime is built for enjoyment of some sort or another. If it fails to give me that enjoyment, then no matter what other good qualities it may or may not have, it failed to do its main duty and therefore is not good. For other people this may not be the case.

Mirai Nikki. It got more than 8 in MAL so it is good, at least from millions of MAL users. When you thought School Days is bad and this one even worse. Calling it "shit" just don't do justice to it.

Most of the shows I dislike I think have a lot of good in them. but also have massive problems that make them bad. There are also a few shows like Serial Experiments Lain and Madoka Magika where I don't really like them, but I don't dislike them and think they're pretty good.
