Ijiranaide Nagatoro San is one of the worst recent romcom.

@MadanielFL I've seen most people liking it and it was pretty well received to my knowledge. If that's not so then my bad..
@Suryaaps If you say its a bad romance anime maybe i would slightly agree but as a ROMCOM aka romance/comedy it perfectly fits this genre

lol the CR shill here as usual. Anyway, ecchi is as good as any other genre, paying $60-90 for anime DVD is stupid, "chad" main characters in harem are as boring as the so called "beta" characters people screech about, and lastly, gore and killing off half the main cast doesn't make an anime "mature".
Guess I was right about my hot take...

And half of your takes aren't even unpopular.

Many people like ecchi anime, many people complain about overpriced blu-rays (just see what people think of Aniplex of America BDs)
Many people also agree with you that anime with excess of killing and gore are nothing more than edgy and not mature at all....

Steins;Gate is extremely overrated. Like I applaud the series for using some real life terms like Sern (Cern in real life) and John Titor and pretty much got their theories right to an extent. But the pros just end there. Most cardboard cutout characters, some blatant and clear plot conveniences which even my gran can see and boring as f*ck first half which made me lose interest altogether dropping it in between. People say it gets good later on and it propelled me to episode 12-13 while dropping it 3 times in the process but I don't see the reasons why I should continue.

-Tohka is better than Kurumi. You can't change my mind.

Darling In The FRANXX is probably one of the worst shows out there if not the worst.

And I think the ending of ERASED and Anohana were very underwhelming.

Finally Domestic Girlfriend is actually good.

Attack on titan whilst good isn't a masterpiece

Mushoko Tensei pretends to be smart but it's just edgy without substance.

Don't know if this is really a hot take or not but CGDCT is just socially acceptable loli fetish

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, while really good, is not really the best anime in my opinion. The adaptation FUCKING STRUGGLES a lot with the first 13 episodes. While yes the 2003 series exists, it is not really acceptable in my opinion to rush through content and then put all your effort in when you get to the new stuff. You have to look at a piece of art as a whole and not just the part where it "gets good" at. It is like this image, the beginning is fucking rushed and atrocious and it slowly gets better, therefore you can't really say that the whole show is a masterpiece.
You shouldn't rank episodes 1-13 as if they're a different show than 14-64, they are the same show and rushing through that early material DOES hurt the show overall. They even skipped on the Youswell Mining Town story in spite of the fact that Yoki who first appears in it shows up later and mentions it so viewers are gonna be left HELLA CONFUSED cuz he just tells you what happened which breaks the "show don't tell" rule of storytelling. Those first 13 episodes are 20% of the show when you break it down and to me, even if those last 51 episodes are a 10/10 (which to me they aren't I would grade them around an 8 or a 9), having a fifth of your shows total episode count being pretty bad should mark your score down. I gave FMAB an 8/10 because of my frustration with those early episodes and how in general, I just honestly preferred the older series better. The more character focused narrative of 2003 resonated with me much more than the action packed more standard narrative Brotherhood went for, and nothing really felt that rushed in 2003. 2003 knew when to take its time, and even if the plot heavily diverges from the manga, it is still a satisfying ending and the new direction they went in was honestly just more interesting to me. Even if Brotherhood didn't rush through those early chapters I would have honestly come to the same conclusion that the classic 2003 series was the better show due to my preferences. Brotherhood is honestly just kinda overhyped that to me it could not reach those lofty expectations set upon it, and everyone shitting on 2003 honestly made me honestly surprised when I sat down and watched it since I ended up with something that stuck with me more and challenged me to think. This sentiment seems more common in my local community as I have talked to many other anime fans in my local area and they seem to have similar opinions of the 2003 series and similar issues with Brotherhood, but when you look at the wider internet it feels like us 2003 fans are kinda the minority here. Don't get me wrong, I did enjoy Brotherhood in the end, but I felt less satisfied and had way more issues with it than 03.

This post is brought to you by your local transfem gamer goblin. Will not tolerate bigotry and will fight against "anti-woke" sentiment to make the anime community a safer place.

@Jonas-K Yeah, I liked mashle, but not because it was funny. Honestly comedy anime in general aren't usually funny to me.
@BananaGod34 agreed. I don’t know what people saw in that ani. Not only was it not funny, it was like watching the same episode 12 times.

My hot take: Death Note is massively overrated and really not a good anime.

@zubby Thank you!
I was sold "THE BEST ANIME EVER" by my friends.
Just to find an anime about a smart guy smarting another smart guy, but hey, both are written by te same person so it's just this writer saying "Gotcha!" at least twice per chapter, it could have been more about a random guy going godlike power crazy but believing he is righteous and instead it's the anime version of a heist movie.

Anyways... idk if it's a hot take, but I believe DBZ should have ended after the fight with Frieza, with Goku sacrificing himself just after fulfilling the super saiyan prophecy to avenge his friend.

Since when is not considering Eva to be "the greatest ever" a hot take? I thought it became normal not to worship anime.
Here's an actually spicy hot take: watching battle shounen above the age of 18 is unironically immature and irresponsible.
Hot Blood saves lives.

Vinland Saga S2 is the equivalent of Game of Thrones S8.
Kaguya sama is mid, and a garbage "romance". Rent a GF is a much better romance.
All basketball anime is trash.

Oshi no ko is one of the most boring series I have ever seen, Dr.stone is a better shonen than JJK, Aimer and Yoasobi are very overrated.

@BananaGod34 Because most battle shounen boil down to the same lazy capeshit over and over again. Why do people still consume it eludes me.

Serial experiments lain is one of the most overhyped and overrated shows I've seen, all the fandom is just a bunch of people blinded by nostalgia not willing to admit the shows mid.
