jayss said: Steins;Gate, such an interesting theme ruined by stupid character relationships Wait, are you kidding me? Sure, generic characters were really bad, but I am pretty sure it's potential wasn't waisted. If nothing else, Makise and Okabe overshadowed all other characters by a mile. Also, there are only handful of anime which were adopted from VN and still lived to be called great. VN's are safe avenues for anime, considering it will always have a fanbase which will buy it so producers don't really have to try too hard. That is why VN anime are mostly average at best. Now, on topic- Obvious one is first season of SAO. I mean, first episode was badass, no matter how you look at it. You have game world, people trapped and trying to get out. Pretty simple concept, but still great. Yet, after second episode it started going downhill. For all mystery builed up around Asuna, we got generic tsundere. For all side characters, we got generic harem cast. We even got a dumb friend. Also, Kirito was nigh- indestructible, which destroyed tension in any battle he might have. I mean, he is so strong even rules of game had to bend for him, and it was literally stated by Kayaba. But then again, for all failure first season had, second will manage to surpass it by a several miles. Next and more recent one is Tokyo Ghoul, at least for us, manga readers. Between rushed story, no character development and censuring, this anime lost all of it's glory, and what was left was simple pile of crap that wore name Tokyo Ghoul. Especially few last episodes, where most story was skipped, up to the point where reason for Kaneki's capture was erased and he was simple there because...well, just because. His character development was especially butchered. |

If they had focused more on the supernatural aspect of this it probably would have been better. |

| Akame ga Kill: even though the story seems good, there are basic flaws. The characters can't be more cliche, and there's this black and white morality. There are just the ''good'' and ''evil'' guys. There has been no explanation about the corruption on the capital, which makes it even more ridiculous. The transition from drama to comedy was pathetic at first, but I think it has been improved over time. Mirai Nikki: the plot was very good but the characters, except for Yuno maybe, had weak development. It felt really boring at times. |
| Mardock Scramble. The cyberpunk setting, character design & concept is good but the execution is not. |

| The correct answer is Sword Art Online |
 |
| Sword Art Online: I felt like it had a world worth exploring, but it's completely thrown to the curb in place of watching a dull romance bud between two lackluster characters. Mekaku City Actors: Interesting premise and characters, but that diminishes all to quickly and we instead get some rushed, tiring story. The list goes on, but these are the two anime that really stood out for me. |

| Glasslip. Perfectly good animation gone to waste. |
| MAL: A community that thinks every anime is bad, but rates everything a 7/10. |
| Probably Bleach |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| Naruto. Deal with it narutards they messed it up. |
 .. |
| Attack on Titan. Took a good premise and made it generic, cliched, and just bad. Angel Beats. Had potential but didn't have enough episodes. Poor characterization Psycho Pass. Could've been good if not for poor characters and a bad ending. Durarara- Lost all its steam during the second half. Clannad. Started off as generic harem. Should've removed all the other heroines and just focused on Tomoya and Nagisa. Also, made nagisa an actual character instead of a cockroach. Wolf's Rain. Once again, took a very good premise and didn't expand upon any of it. The main characters were archetypes, and the villain wasn't fleshed out. Darker Than Black. Basically same as before. |

Also, made nagisa an actual character instead of a cockroach. Clannad would be better if it was more focused on the adult life and less on school. And less wish fulfillment ending. Agreed with DRRR. |

| mahoromatic.... the series was like 8/10 but the last 1 or 2 eps totally ruined it for me. like id rather watch a 24hr marathon of mars of destruction than the finale of mahoromatic once. |

| Tokyo Ghoul. Could be better. Darker than Black Gemini is also disappointing. |
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. |
| Initial D - If only they stuck to the way the 1st stage was made. (# of eps) |
 |
| Angel Beats! could have been considerably better with more episodes to flesh out the characters and plot. |
| Zetman... and maybe Naruto. |
I luv u |
| Kamisama no Inai Nichiyoubi Sword Art Online Blood-C - I remember being really excited for this cause I love Blood+, but what a pile of crap. It was so promising, but that ending was just the worst. Let's just pretend this anime never existed. Skip Beat! - Don't get me wrong this is one of my favourite animes because of Kyoko Mogami. She is a brilliant character. However, that ending of this particular anime was so bad. It just ended before we got to see Ren act out his Katsuki. WTF O.o Could have at least ended it after that. I mean come on. I heard rumours of a second season, but that was years ago. At least I know what happens as the manga is still ongoing. And animes with the MOST wasted potential goes to most if not all reverse harems, but that is to be expected I suppose. |

 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |

keragamming said: FloatsBoats said: I'm hoping Samurai Flamenco has been mentioned Samurai Flamenco didn't even have potential in the first place. Well to be fair it had some potential.To be like a anime version of KickAss with the whole normal guy wanting to be a hero and protect the neighborhood and eventually the city. Of course it was completely flushed down the toilet. Gorilla-Guillotine ftw..... |
FloatsBoats said: I'm hoping Samurai Flamenco has been mentioned Unpopular opinion but I thought it took a decent show and made it even better. |
