Tough choice. If I would choose between the least-liked, it would be Shinryaku! Ika Musume. Probably because it doesn't have much of a story. But other than that, it's actually pretty good. That's why I'm actually watching the second season.

School Rumble San Gakki. One of the worst ending a show ever had. Actually it's not an ending at all. Add the fact that it just jumps in after having skipped dozens of manga chapters (which means you'll have no idea what's going on) and you have a waste of time.

Honestly, I wouldn't recommend Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu. Every episode, there's always a problem! So annoying really, unless you like that kind of thing. But it's still pretty good either way.

The Fate/Stay Night TV Reproduction doesn't really add anything to the series you haven't seen so you may as well skip it. Watch the UBW movie instead.
I 've heard a lot of bad things about School Rumble San Gakki but I haven't seen it myself

Ao No Exorcist. Crappy characters and storyline. Great art/animation, pretty decent soundtrack.

Your entire PTW list is a list of things that have yet to air, except for hotarubi no e... which is just something you can't watch yet being a movie and all (also I plan on watching that too). So I can't tell you what not to watch.

I will say that Zero no Tsukaima died long ago and there's little chance of 4th installment being anything worth watching. Though judging by your comment on it, your a long time fan so I doubt I could deter you...

11eyes.

It was absolutely awful. Seems like a good show, decent concept but the execution is just terrible. The characters are so unlikable and the plot is so predictable. It's supposed to be a huge twist at the end and you're supposed to feel bad for the characters (throughout the whole thing), but you just hate them.

@Meh_93

Pretty decent PTW list you've got there though the least that I would recommend would be Shangri-La. The pacing was so slow with a not so interesting story. Pacing problems and plot aside, the visuals are quite astounding.

Oh, also forgot about Shion no Ou. It's a mystery genre that isn't so mysterious. It has a very linear and predictable plot in which a thriller/mystery genre should avoid. The visuals too compared to the works of DEEN before is just plain horrible.

It's difficult as none of them have aired yet but i'll try:

Black Rock Shooter

From what I've heard the OVA was mediocre and I doubt the TV-series will be much better.


Note to my list: Don't say School Days. That's just too easy.

How is someone supposed to comment on your PTW list? You have only 5, not yet aired series. Another is in my PTW/PTR list too.

@ thekaas

I don't recommend FLCL and School Days. They may be short, but they are a distasteful waste of time nevertheless.

I do recommend Gankutsuou.

As for the Evangelion movies, I liked 1.0, as it is a well-made recap of the series, but 2.0 is quite pointless and uninteresting, I didn't like it at all.

Good Lord, that's a lot of PTW...
Since there are too many to name I'll just side with the one that really caught my eye: Zero no Tsukaima.

Louise is a bad tsundere with too much tsun tsun. Saito is a terrible male lead. The whole "if I believe I can win I CAN win, even if my opponent is skilled in sword play and I just picked up this sword stuff yesterday!!! I must protect you. I will always be with you" junk runs rampant. The rest of the cast are OK, but not good enough to sit through it all.

@ Angel_Beats :

Togainu no Chi - I assume that the only reason that anyone would be interested in this series would be because they at least somewhat enjoy BL. I feel like this series was just one big disappointment after another. It started out with a relative amount of promise, but then by the time you get close to the finale the only thing you can really do is question your sanity in continuing this series.

Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou. It's pretty much Harry Potter but with tits. If you want a guy with no apparent ability going to a school, getting made into a wizard and getting into pervy situations with a bunch of sluts, then watch it. If not, avoid it.

Full Moon wo Sagashite - It really is just me, but I didn't enjoy this series. I'll admit that it was fairly interesting and kept me hooked for a few episodes, but then I found a spoiler that just killed the series for me. The ending is just one of those things that you'll either hate or love and for me I decided that I really disliked it.

@ xxSaspra: I wouldn't recommend the following crappy titles:

Ookami-san to Shichinin no Nakamatachi: This anime was really hyped before it aired. But after it aired, all that hype went to the drain.

Arakawa Under the Bridge: Not interesting at all. The comedy is forced and lame. There are some really hillarious parts though

Kore wa Zombie Desu Ka : had potential, but it all went to waste after the introduction of the newest character. Things was just all over the place, and the pstory & actions had no flow at all whatsoever

Fate/Stay Night - the story is terribly slow-paced, the characters are either boring or annoying (especially Emiya Shirou). Really, the only thing I liked about the series was the first opening and ending themes. I would watch Unlimited Blade Works instead and just doing the Wikipedia read of Fate/Stay night if you want, or better yet, watch Fate/Zero.
lol, whoops.

Mobile Suit Gundam AGE. i've heard the art is terrible and it's just a bunch of old gundams so unless you're a fanatic about watching gundams i wouldn't suggest spending your time on this show.

Itazura na Kiss - Very slow moving story, nothing unique. Girl likes boy but boy won't like her back.
Mobile Suit Gundam 00 The Movie: A Wakening of the Trailblazer - Completely unrelated to the anime. Kind of a boring story. It was a let down compare to how good the show was.

Don't watch Higurashi Kira. I beg of you.
It's a disgrace to the franchise as well as to the people that stood by it for 10 years.
I played or of the Visual Novels, watched all the anime and read all the manga.
But if I could, I'd go back in time and forbid myself to watch Kira.
It senseless and just plain stupid.

I didn't look at all of your plan to watch but I just grabbed the very first one I saw that I would totally not watch

Dogs: Bullets & Carnage - random episodes that don't really run off of each other, no really point to it or anything, and it's not even like the characters develop or anything

oh and the action is mega yawn

sorry :P

I'm usually not too critical but those ova's were a complete waste of time.
