| Almost every anime has a boring part in it. But I can say that slice of life genre can always be boring. (Still like it a lot) |
| Redundant anime (Pokemon is an example of this but Team Rocket is saving this anime from being dropped by me) Overhyped anime Anime with no discernible plot Predictable anime Anime that started out great then turned shitty (I'm looking at you SAO) Anime with characters that are pain in the buttered ass |
| All my favorite shows...Next! -Mastergold |
 |
| The "Naruto, Fairy Tail, Attack on Titan, Ghibli movies" people. Though those people don't usually have MAL accounts. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| those people who's favorite anime are Kill la Kill, Ping Pong The Animation, FLCL, Kaiba, Psycho-Pass, 1997 Berserk, Tekkon Kinkreet, Hunter x Hunter(2011) and Haibane Renmei. You know they are just elitist anime. |

| 1. I find shows that bet a lot on the shock value of gore or violence, like Elfen Lied, Tokyo Ghoul, Hellsing and Parasyte. The last three are not specifically bad but I feel most people like them mostly because they look 'cool'. 2. Same stuff with all those "cool" shounen shows. I'll always find Fairy Tail, Naruto, One Piece and stuff like those boring. There are some of these kind of shows I like but I feel a bit pissed when people will only watch stuff like this and dislike anime without "cool fighting scenes" 3. The one I like to call "LOOK AT THAT DEAD PUPPY IT JUST APPEARED - to make your eyes bawl". I usually enjoy melodrama, but not stuff like anohana, Shigatsu, or ...the worst of them all, Plastic Memories (ah okay. Sora no Method and CHarlotte were way worse). They don't bother building a decent momentum, creating coherent relationships, but out of nowhere there will be a puppy death scene and it'll create the background sound and the characters will cry and it'll make you cry. Do you know how sitcoms make you laugh with the laughing noise in the background pretending something is funny? They make you think something is sad by adding some crying here and there. And some people always claim these shows to be masterpieces and I roll my eyes. I am a bitter person. |

| Slice of life and things relating of the sorts, where things are far more laid-back and in most cases slow paced. Now I obviously find exceptions in it, I've judged quite a few anime by their cover or first few minutes by being slice of life. Don't get me wrong; I find nothing wrong with the genre. Sit down with a hot cup of tea and relax, but it just isn't my cup of tea. Really scenic shots and casual conversations bore me to no end, and any slice of life that is acclaimed to be amazing I can't see it as being, as to me they're just there to help relax and share a heartwarming or heartwrenching story, not there to blow your expectations. Else it'd go against it's genre. |

Someone's taste is boring when they have those favourites clearly to just try and fit with some clique or society at large. |
| I get what Digibro is going for when he makes that list, but I really can't think of a consistent list of anime that I feel would really stand out as someone having really boring or predictable taste. Me looking at a list of five favorites doesn't really tell me anything about the person in question. I have no idea if they seriously like the anime, if they don't properly understand them and put them there anyway, or whatever other reason. I think what's more important is how that person kind of acts on forums and how that correlates with their taste in favorites. It's really hard to describe with any reliable accuracy, but as a general rule of thumb, I find that a lot of people who dislike the sort of pretentious set of anime shows in an obnoxious and repetitive manner end up having very predictable anime as their favorites. This is especially true when they use the same old witticisms and rarely ever engage in an actual discussion on the merits or shortfalls of the anime they so profanely repeat that they dislike. I personally find it funny when they end up liking a similar anime but "like" it for the most asinine reasons. On the other end of the spectrum, I find that people who resort to passive aggressiveness and sarcastic one liners as a means of expressing their intelligence also tend to have predictable anime in their favorites. |

| Boring taste is the mainstream shit that doesn't even deserve the recognition it has. SAO, Clannad, Fairytail, Angel Beats, Naruto, anything mainstream those shits They're all safe choices to put in a favorites list. My most boring taste would have to be HxH 2011. Damn my boring taste is heavenly. |

Lobinde said: Yea, I mentioned this somewhere else, but one thing that you sort of realize growing up is you don't have to like everything that other people do, but if something's really acclaimed, there has to be a set of reasons (legitimate or not) that people like it. There are rarely few times, even to things I completely dislike, where I can't come up with a good solid few reasons why people like it.I find that if anything someone's attitude can be better discerned from how they treat the stuff that they dislike. People who generally have the most predictable and boring opinions (and taste) are the type of people who really aren't able to form those kind of justifications, or at the very least aren't able to see why people like something. It's especially annoying when they think they do. |
| Boring taste is a taste that i can predict. If i can predict most of the ratings on the list with the most generic explanations out there then the taste is so boring that it makes me facepalm. Also a taste with no variety is boring. Anyway most tend to be tryhard edgy critics, so if they happen to be legit then i call them a user with boring taste. |
>4 hours sorry no can do |
| gone bai bai |
I wouldn't say this makes someone's preferences "boring" so to speak but it's annoying nonetheless. The whole "objective opinion" thing is something I've been speaking out on for a while now. (as you can see in my sig lol) |
| Either stuff like Naruto, Once Piece, Fairy Tail, and Bleach, or all the stuff elitists cream over like Evangelion. |

| People who only look for 'good' shows without trying to find the niche that might resonate with them a little better tend to be superficial and boring. |

I like most of the anime on here that people say are boring tastes lol (ie: Fairy Tail, One Piece, Naruto) and Slice of Life lol okay not really since I"m not one of those people who talks about my favorite anime all the time so I'm not boring after all. I think lol *goes back into hiding* |

| Think it's very boring when people claim that Steins;Gate is literally the best show ever and "the deepest shit ever" nd stuff. Also people who can't fucking stop about SAO, FMAB and Tokyo Ghoul. Yikes. |
| Monogatari series Madoka FMA Brotherhood Steins;Gate Hunter x Hunter Evangelion Gurren Lagann Kill la Kill Fate/anything Texhnolyze Mushishi Cowboy Bebop |
| The most boring favourite lists are the empty ones. |
 |
| Also boring are fillers! I mean I understand the need to not catch up too fast to the manga but come on. An anime with more fillers than not tends to get boring. |
| I really don't think having just one or two of these series mentioned in their favorites really qualifies for boring taste, rather it would be a whole list filled with them. |
| Boring taste? OH this video..it was pretty good. He just wanted people to give reasons for why they liked the shows they put in a top 9 list. He feels some people put certain shows on their list just to look cool which is kind of a sad truth. I noticed it with video games. Anyone who doesn't play games but when around gamers will act like Madden,. 2K, FIFA(In Europe) and COD are the best things since slice bread. |
| I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon. |
| Lain, and Azumanga Daioh... Lain just doesn't have a soundtrack and that acoustic makes me drowsy... And Azumanga sometimes is hilarious, though, it's more boring than its funny |
| Cuteness > Everything else Cuteness is Love, Cuteness is Life |
| People who avoid putting popular shows on their favorites lists are just hipsters. Anyone is free to put whatever show they want on their favorites, whether someone else thinking they're good or not doesn't matter. If you're being influenced by someone else to put something else on your favorites just to feel 'superior', that's less being your favorite and more so theirs, at which point, you can't really call it your list anymore. |
| In my opinion it's a ridiculous hipster mentality to try to show how unique and interesting you are by refusing to like anything that's popular. The idea of forcing oneself to find and like obscure titles outside the mainstream that hardly anyone has seen, just to show what a special snowflake they are, has never appealed to me. Such dishonesty to oneself is what I find truly boring. Other people liking something shouldn’t prevent you from liking it also. I get it that people who've dedicated a lot of time to something want to differentiate themselves from the "casuals". Like PC gamers who want to differentiate themselves of the more casual console users, who in turn want to differentiate themselves from the mobile gamers. Or the how C++ programmers want to show how HC they are by pointing out how JS (or another high-level language) is not a real programming language whenever possible. Or how avid movie watchers bash on blockbusters hits for being mindless action garbage. However, such elitism only makes people look bad in my eyes. Naturally, I also find the opposite to be boring too: if someone were to only add titles to their favourites just to fit in with as many people as possible, that'd be equally moronic and dishonest to oneself. I pay no heed to others' opinion when adding titles to my favourites. If anything, I'd be surprised and saddened, if a show I've found good enough to consider a favourite wouldn't be even remotely popular. I didn't favourite the titles I did because they're popular, but because I found them genuinely good. And they're poplar because they are good -- not the other way around. And as a consequence, the titles I’ve ended up favouriting just so happen to be poplar picks for other people’s favourite lists. Or that's how I see it anyway, a show that doesn't do something right doesn't end up popular just by pure chance. Of course, if I one day stumble across an undiscovered gem that's nowhere near popularity, I'll still favourite it without question; but I’d be surprised if such a masterpiece wouldn’t have already found its audience with other people as well prior ty me discovering it. And I’m naturally not saying someone shouldn’t be allowed to dislike a popular show despite (not because of) its popularity, either. However, it feels like some portion of this same boring hipster crowd feel compelled to find something poplar to bash on (like, SAO is a poplar one to hate), just to show that they’re not a blind sheep like everyone else and then go onto exaggerate their point to stir up the pod. But then again, maybe other people treat their anime lists as more of a statement about themselves, rather than an honest list of what they enjoyed watching. My point with all this being, people who complain about the mainstream seem to be just as affected and biased by it as the people they’re complaining about are. Who knows, maybe I’m wrong. |

| My favorites are favorites regardless of rating. For instance, I love all things FSN including the 2006 anime, which is fairly controversial I suppose. |
 Click the banner for anime lists, discussions, reviews, and let's plays! |
| You'd think Cowboy Bebop, Dragon Ball, and Pokemon would qualify, but they don't seem to. Ghost in the Shell arguably does. Maybe Soul Eater. |
| Got oppai? |
| What should I do if I like Code Geass, Death Note, Steins;Gate, Clannad and Naruto? |
| I think there is a reason why people tell me over and over my favorites list is interesting despite having Evangelion on it... I honestly dont care. They actually are my favorites. They represent significant periods in anime for me. However, I have thought about switching it up to include Gravitation or Inuyasha because of how they impactected me as a young fan but also wish to include some newer anime sometimes. Like Sweetness and Lightening... But yeah. I dont know anyone who hates Full Metal Alchemist. My favorites: Neon Genesis Evangelion TV · 1995 Fullmetal Alchemist TV · 2003 Yu☆Gi☆Oh! Duel Monsters TV · 2000 Moldiver OVA · 1993 School Days TV · 2007 |

The anime community in a nutshell.  |
| I'd say the kind of people that just stick with old anime classics like Ghost in the Shell, Cowboy Bebop, Evangelion, Akira and that. It's not that the shows are bad or that I don't like old anime, I actually like it a lot (at least the few ones I've seen), but it's just the kind of culture they have created that bores me a lot. |

| Three types of people: - Firstly, people with all mainstream shounen as favorites. - People with all 'elitist stuff' as favorites - And lastly, ecchi/hentai people (Sorry Mamster, no offence dude) People with diverse taste are a little more interesting, as you can't always know what they'll like or dislike. But then again, people can do whatever they want. It's not like everyone makes their favorites list only to impress others. |

But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
| Hmm most boring taste in anime Well I guess I could say my own favourites list so to say. When almost every show on the list is from around the same year. But that's just me trying to look at it from a objective point of view |

AltoRoark said: ashfrliebert said: Evangelion Serial Experiments Lain pIng pong the Animation Texhnolyze pIng pong the Animation Samurai champloo Texhnolyze Since when is Samurai Champloo an elitist show?
