Hunter x hunter, why would I watch a show that has no ending and probably never will, also the fans are really obnoxious, or at least the ones I've had the misfortune of speaking with

The people that are saying hxh 2011 because it doesn't have a ending, because of Togashi laziness. I will like to point out that the anime has a pretty conclusive ending, that will make you satisfied. No clifhanger or anything like that.
has conclusive ending about certain arc =/= conclusive ending about the whole plot.


Actually, it works perfectly as an ending to the series. Togashi just decided to troll his fanbase by starting a new arc and going on another hiatus.

Clannad + After Story - dislike the art and all the pushing to be sad
Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso - same as clannad but full of tropes, predictability and bad characters
Mushishi - don't really like episodic stuff too much
Natsume Yuujinchou - same as above
Long running shows - don't want to spend time to get into them
The truth is best told straight.

I know I say this in every "anime you'll never watch" thread out there, but I will repeat myself because I heard its sequel is one of the best ecchi/harem anime out there.

That being To Love-Ru. I hear Darkness is really good, but I don't want to sit through 52 episodes of schlock just to get to the main plot. And I'm pretty sure you have to watch the originals so you can understand the characters. (Unless somehow you don't, any To Love Ru fans on this forum, want to help me on this?)

The main plot of darkness is same as clothes of girls in Darkness OVAs, pretty much non-existent. Darkness is better not because story suddenly become a masterpiece, it is considered better because it is now more lewd and harem is bigger and this show pretty much knows what it is, ecchi harem and doesn't pretend to be much more.
Try it if you like watching ecchi, if not then don't.

Gintama is the first show that comes to mind for me... i tried the first couple episodes and wasn't able to latch on, combine that with how many episodes it is... i decided to drop it...

but i wouldnt be surprised if at some point i give it a run... a day that i'm in the mood to binge watch something for a day...

becuz admittedly, only watching 2 episodes isnt giving it a fair shake...

Clannad, Ano Hana, Shigatsu... I just cant stand too much drama and kids crying all over the place.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

clannad is a mediocre series. its fanbase is one of the worst since it's based off of nothing but sentimentality. the music in there will stay with you forever, however. be it catchy (as in can't forget the song no matter what, like "let it go"), or just wonderful depending on who you are.

that looks boring as well. oh yes and SnK due to the HORRIBLE fanbase, and i won't look at FMA2 since it will be the end of a beautiful franchise to me. oh and death note, no particular reason, but i heard only S1 was good.

S1 tokyo ghoul due to violence, and the monstrous sequels everyone complains about.

for all of you HXH non-watchers, the only reason not to watch is because it HAS an ending. i had to drop it in the 50s because i was going so fast through it. the music in there is worth it as well. watch iiiiit.

lol who'd be offended over people's opinions? if you tried to state it as fact maybe that could be understandable bit i don't see why or how a person should get offended...

stiens gate technically counts. i had no idea so many people praised it until i finished it. i found an ad of it in an otaku usa magazine i have and decided to look at it, but everyone's praise of it afterwards put me off for an odd reason even though i'd seen it already ._.

5 centimeters counts as a technical as well. i put it off for years and finally saw it last month. should have kept putting it off.

Oh gosh yeah. I used to be part of that fandom until it turned to absolute horse shit (pun very intended). Still love the show but steering clear of them from now on.

I was gonna watch Gundam Unicorn because I was interested in it and looked like something I'd really enjoy with great production values....

Until I realized that the entire UC timeline is pretty much shit and I don't want to sit through so much shit just so I can fully enjoy Unicorn. And I'm definitely not gonna jump straight to it, because I don't like skipping stuff(unless pointless filler or recaps) and miss out on anything as well.

None. If I hear an anime is good (from a person whose taste I trust), I'm always interested in watching it one day or another.

And from the people I don't trust... Well, my friend recommended me Shiki last month... Looks like something wannabe-dark and the guy on the poster looks like a bishounen. So, yeah, I'll pass on this one.
