| @Motion_Menace Nana? HEY! No you don't! I'm watching Nana first! >:( JK |
| Numbuh 3, you've got to get off the couch, you cannot sit in that tree house, girl you like Rainbow Monkeys so grab your little shit and then swing! Hand tracks be tracking me to different doorways. In a maze, and I don't know what to do. Guaranteed though, Ima find the emeralds. "TURN THAT JAPANESE SHIT OFF OR I'LL PUT YOU THROUGH THE FUCKING WALL!" |
One I'm not sure if to recommend is Mahou Sensei Negima! I heard the manga is much better. So, yes, that, Shikabane Hime: Aka and Inuyasha are probably some of the not so good titles in your PTW. |

| No. 6, after the first 3-4 episodes you will be thinking "This show is great", the rest of the episodes though just got worse and worse, and then it slaps you in the face with a terrible ending. |
 |
| Gosick - Loli detective show, not much good sides. Story with it's mystery and detective side is extremely childish. Best way to describe it would be "just a sweet thing." |
| I definitely have superpowers. I can feel it in my balls. |
| Carnival Phantasm-- the only reason it's liked is because of Type-Moon fanboys. Humour sucks. |
| @Solkiskey Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon I was going to watch this as well.. but then I read some reviews about it and a lot of people said it wasn't worth it.. I didn't really bother to give it a try because it was apparently really bad... |
 |
| @fezakyuu Hakushaku to Yousei - for the lack of a better word, it was boring. Even a decent cast of seiyuu didn't help. A sweet story which doesn't seem to lead anywhere. Itazura na Kiss - was it really a romance? A half-wit girl worshipping her ideal guy who doesn't bother to steep to her level. Annoying. Both of them and the whole concept. |
MizuKagami413Dec 3, 2011 12:25 PM
| GetBackers, I wouldn't bother. Generic and boring, although there were some good characters. |
| @LLXII Gundam Age for sure... it just doesn't compare to the other Gundam Series. xD |
 |
| I do not recommend C3 and Higurashi no naku koro ni Rei/Kira. |
| @webkid94 Elfen Lied. It starts off REALLY good, but gets clouded by forced incest, poorly animated blood, and the lead guy falling in love with a physco murderer who |
| Dont touch me I'm in despair. |
| @SilentMelodies Code Geass- Shitty as fuck, everyone was terrible besides Lelouch, and he was only decent. The plot is lolk and overall was a bad watch. OreImo- Wasn't funny 1 bit. Never understood why its popular at all. LOLOL I PLAY EROGES AND I CANT TELL FAMILY. Avoid it. |
| @IllegalCyrus Dennou Coil - BOOOOOORRRRRRRING!! its a major snore fest. Your list is pretty solid when it comes to ptw except for what i made out for you to aviod |
 |
| @orbbie Kimikiss Pure Rouge. you can totally skip this. i saw the second season of amagami ss on your ptw, but kimi is the crap precursor to amgami. pretty bland show and 100% predictable, save yourself some time! :D |
 |
| ok so i see... Clannad Movie u should watch it only becus of the ending otherwise its a waste of time its just a retelling of the story with a better ending and the dango song is difrent Full Metal Panic its pretty good but it isnt complete so i wouldnt watch it it would give u an empty feeling Vampire Knight sure but it got boring after a little bit just dont drop itit gets intresting in the second one |
 |
| @ BoredAznn Most of the anime you plan to watch are pretty bad. But then again, you like Lucky Shit, so... 5 CM Per Second: I disliked it because it's a sappy, melodramatic romance mixed with stunning but pointless visuals. You'll probably be amazed by it. FMA + Brotherhood: I loathe this mediocre and overrated shounen crap, but everyone else on Earth seems to adore it, so you'll most likely love it too. To Love Ru: Tried to read the manga, average ecchi comedy with good art, nothing more. Seikon No Qwaser has a fantastic story... filled with stupid, extreme ecchi. The anime is terrible compared to the manga. The only one I truly recommend is Yu Yu Hakusho. Epic, great shounen classic. |
 watching, waiting, commiserating |
| @RenaPsychoKiller I wouldn't recommend Bakemonogatari... but that is just me, I couldn't get into it. Into 5 episodes and it felt like nothing was happening at all despite all the dialogue. I did like the style though even if at times it looked bland and whitish. PS: And wow you don't hold back! It's bound to see other users having different tastes! Just sayin... |

| @Veethorn I'd probably say Hunter x Hunter. It's not that it's that bad, but in the time you'd spend watching its 62 episodes, you could easily finish 3 or 4 better series'. I also thought that Monster was incredibly overrated, and I do regret sitting through its 74 episodes, but it's rated highly, so there must be some appeal I guess. |
| @TokyoCandlelight I'd prolly say "Durarara" a lot of people would disagree, but I find it bland, boring and uninteresting in anyway, people told me just keep watching till episode 12 or so and you will be surprised I reached episode 14 and it was still meh, I just couldn't sit through it without getting sleepy. Phi Brain - It's still airing, I know. However, it's just the same thing over and over with the continuous phrases "It's Puzzle time" and "Solved" it's just shit, it's just repetitive, also I never liked the characters at all, they seemed weak and not funny at all (when they are trying to be funny). <_< Well, it will be just those 2 for now, I could comment on others but I have mixed feelings about them. |
 |
| @ RingoPie Most of the anime you plan to watch are very good. The only one I don't recommend to anyone is Chaos Head. Plenty of people hate it, and for once in a while, there is a valid reason. |

| Rena PsychoKiller, Ookami Kakushi. No good story, no good characters, don't watch that. |

| @ andredrezefilth You have several good anime in your PTW list. The ones I don't recommend are: - Lupin. Classic? Yes. Good? No. - Kuroshitsuji. Only a yaoi fangirl could like this garbage. - Michiko To Hatchin. Overhyped. I didn't like it at all. Pointless, shallow, and forgettable. - Marmalade Boy. Common, stupid romantic story with loathsome characters. - Chobits. Manga was awful and stupid, anime's probably even worse. - Le Chevalier D'Eon. Not a good anime in any way. Tedious, weird, and crappy. - Fate Stay Night. Disappointing. Boring. Nothing great or special at all. - Witch Hunter Robin. Goes nowhere. Seriously. A major waste of time. - Irresponsible Captain Tylor. Silly space opera filled with unfunny comedy. - Record of Lodoss War: Chronicles of the Heroic Knight. If you want something as good as the OVA, avoid this. |

| Afro Samurai, mehhh! |
| @ Liinah Avoid C3 and the Naruto movies, they're the epitimy of generic selling material aimed at the impressionable. If you take my advice, I have saved you from hours of your life wasted.;) |
 |
| @ Queen_Stars Don't bother watching Azumanga Daioh, Nabari No Ou, and Chrono Crusade. They're average and not very likeable at all. |
watching, waiting, commiserating |
| @Queen_Stars Kannagi should be avoided. The idea behind it was nice at first, but there really is zero plot after all. Yes, one of them is a goddess. Will this divert your attention enough to convince you that this isn't just another cliché harem? I think not. I wasn't a fan of Bakemonogatari, which is essentially a 4 hour conversation that doesn't even try to go anywhere. There are a heap of folks that DO like this one though, so I'll sit on the fence here. Congratulations on also being British btw. ;) @RenaPsychoKiller Ghost stories was pretty "meh". It's got no scare-factor like Ghost Hunt did; it's pure parody, but rarely funny. I'd also steer clear of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei if you're expecting anything akin to the former series'. It's essentially 5 parody episodes, just without the parody. I just finished Minami-ke, and it really wasn't worth it. It's very slow paced, similar to Lucky Star, but without the cultural reference humour. Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann is an anime for 5 year olds, period. Mech all over the place, and they're ridiculous mech too, with drills on their faces as weapons. The story is cheesy and the art is rough. One of the worst anime I've ever seen, despite its rating. |
Bellany_Dec 6, 2011 12:43 PM
| Funny thing is, I was planning to blasting my list and a few of the names you two mentioned are amounst those I though twice about, so thanks, I'll clear up. I'll do you both... RenaPyscoKiller - Hayate Combat Butler is a massive dissapointment, a true bait and switch - Persona4 is a massive bore of mediocre - Toaru Majutsu no Index = every archtype and common, predictable shounen scenario ever noted @ my fellow brit TokyoCandlelight - Toaru Majutsu no Index, same reasons as above - Shugo Chara borders on insulting your intelligence as it spoonfeeds you information and productivity - Phi Brain, trust me, don't! It's another archtype character series with kiddie mysteries |

| D.Gray-man is a really mediocre shounen series that takes forever to get nowhere at all. You can pick up the manga after the non-ending, but don't expect a satisfying experience from that, either. Especially after the author switched to a monthly format. Kaze no Stigma is shit and even the awesome protagonist can't save it. Go for the first Last Exile, but wait a while before picking up the sequel. It's not quite hopeless yet, but it's been a bit of a downward spiral lately. Soul Eater has some really cool points, but I hope you're prepared for possibly the most anticlimactic conclusion to a final battle of all time. Requiem for the Phantom also has a very stupid twist in the last episode that kinda ruins it. Yumekui Merry: The director apologized for it. And he didn't even figure out where he fucked up. The manga's worth a shot, though. EDIT: Queen_Stars: Gundam 00: There has to be better mecha out there. I guess there's the pretty-boy pilots, but only one of them is actually likeable. 07-Ghost: Seemed like a really boring shounen series to me. |
Nyuu3Dec 6, 2011 1:07 PM
| NEXT POSTER SKIP ME AND REVIEW NyuuuuSaaaan @Queen_Stars You're the second person to hate on Phi Brain today, so it's gone. I guess the concept behind it was better than the execution then? ^^' The other two are probably my lowest priority on my PTW list. I don't even know why they're there. They were probably in the "recommendations" section of an anime I did enjoy. |
| Geez, people. Comments, replies, and discussions go on profiles, not here. Otherwise you'll keep skipping users. Not very nice. :-| @ NyuuuuSaaaan I don't recommend 5 CM Per Second (sappy, shiny, melodramatic), Azumanga Daioh (shallow, dull, unfunny), Grave Of The Fireflies (tries too hard to be sad), Honey And Clover (slice of life + pedophilia), and Millennium Actress (forgettable). |

| @ EfiChan First of all, your list is an awful eye-killer. Are you colorblind, or just a sadist? Because seriously, it's unreadable. Second, you have very few anime in your PTW list, so recommending something from there is very hard. Heart No Kuni No Alice seemed like the average reverse harem thing to me, but you seem to love the genre, so I guess you'll like it. Honestly, you haven't watched many anime, and those you watched aren't exactly masterpieces, so you might want to read some recs and go see some actually good stuff. |

| @RenaPsychoKiller Maria†Holic Alive - I like first season but the 2nd season is a huge disappointment. Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai - Boring. Maybe you should just watch the first episode and skip to the special episodes which are much more interesting. |
 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ |
| @ Soshinra Don't watch Kuroshitsuji, unless you are either a yaoi fangirl or a lover of gothic themes and settings. Try Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei instead. |
watching, waiting, commiserating |
| @Rena Bokurano= meh, many said the manga was better but after seeing the anime it's pretty underwhelming. Watch if you want to see angst filled kids/teens. Clannad- Hit or miss. If you can stand irrelevant slice of life and lack of logic you have a chance of liking it. Mai-HiME- ending sucks, characters suck (some side and main characters). Example = omg my friend is running around killing people I should mope in misery. Clearly that will solve the problem. Steins;Gate- has hype. suck balls beyond belief in my opinion. prepare to be disappointed that it isn't a masterpiece. |
| @ Mika_Inamori Watch Aria only if you absolutely adore slice of life, moe girls, extremely slow pacing, and a total lack of story. Ergo Proxy is not very good, neither. Tries to be a cool and deep cyberpunk anime, but actually goes nowhere. |
watching, waiting, commiserating |
| @ Terraminas I have a sarcastic soul as well, and I appreciated your post. I will now gladly return the favour. Aria: Who needs a story when you have moe pink-haired girls on gondolas? Only a very stupid, heartless person could dislike this deep masterpiece. Kaichou Wa Maid-Sama: I had the honour of reading the first manga chapter, and it was a memorable experience. Truly a original, unforgettable shoujo series, different from anything else. The main characters are out of this world. Negima: I've had the pleasure of reading this beautiful manga, too. Intelligent, unique, and overall brilliant. Anyway, the fanservice was not enough. There were a few panels with no panty shots in them. Princess Resurrection: Amazing. Another manga that I will never forget. Boobs, blood, and brainless characters, what more could you want? Shugo Chara: The first volume of the manga is jaw-dropping. I've never seen a mahou shoujo series like this. Honestly deserves a perfect score, not like other inferior manga, such as Death Note and Black Lagoon. Sugar Sugar Rune: I can never get enough of cliche-filled mahou shoujo, so I decided to watch this lovely anime. Really recommended. The characters and the art style are the best you'll ever see. |

| Gosick. Watch it because you always wanted to see Haruhi as a goth loli detective. You know. Because she isn't annoying enough as is. Please enjoy the complimentary stereotypically useless, goofy male lead. I personally especially enjoyed the urge to stop watching ten minutes into the first episode. |
| @_Miko_ I enjoy mystery and (seemingly) confusing stories, but it seems you're spot on - top rec for Dantalian is Gosick, same character setup. Thanks for heads up. I should really up my criteria for adding stuff to the PtW list. You, on the other hand, have nothing on it, so...deado endo. |
