Dark_Chaos said: No, I don't like her particularly but she had more chemistry with Light. Females actually tend to like either Light or L more so than any other character.mayukachan said: Probably lol. I'm one of the few girls that would have preferred Misa x Light over any of the yaoi couples in Death Note x_x Same with DRRR actually. Yeah, females tend to really like Misa for some reason. I don't dislike her, but I don't like her either. I'm neutral in other words. |
AzuStar said: I think that's actually a strong point for Yama no Susume 2. It keeps each episode fresh without dragging out around the 17-19 minute mark like several SOL do at one point or another.every 12min episode anime. could be longer |

| Nisekoi, If only they make some actual romance instead of some fucking ambiguous ending it would be better imo. |

| Sunday without god (Kamisama no inai nichiyubi) They spend a lot of time building a really beautiful world with an amazing lore but ends up restricting itself to a school environment and the main character's goal (to save the world) is too general to have a clear ending. |
| Kotoura-san It start off pretty good but went down hill since episode 5. SAO Too much fan-services, time-skip and the incest thing. Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai! The first season is great, but the second one is so failure. Mahouka too many minor characters, I have to go back to old episode almost every time to see who the hell the guy is. lol Imphee said: Sunday without god (Kamisama no inai nichiyubi) They spend a lot of time building a really beautiful world with an amazing lore but ends up restricting itself to a school environment and the main character's goal (to save the world) is too general to have a clear ending.

| Bebop. Bebop was good but could have been great if it was arc based and not episodic. Considering it is such a character driven show each character should have gotten an arc specifically dedicated to them. Say ten episodes (with the exception of Ed, like 5 episodes would be sufficient for Ed) for each main character. Spike's arc would have focused on Zankyou No Terror - it would have been a great mystery thriller if , there were actually other good investigators in the police force instead of just Shibazaki and if 9 and 12 didn't have such predictable back stories. Also 11 episodes is kind of ridiculous for a show like this, it should have been 26 episodes at least. |
 |
| The amount of SAO being mention in this thread is over 9000! Can anyone be a little bit more original here? Let me be the first then, Cowboy bebop and Psycho pass both had potential especially psycho pass but both didn't live up to it. |

| SAO had insane potential but it decided to stick their heads into fans' asses. For example, show started to focus on pathetic romance, made 12 year old girls fall in love with Kirito, completely OP main character with 0 development, etc. |

OT No Game No Life. NGNL could have been a good game based anime instead of just an average one if there was more focus on games and less on fan service, the characters weren't terrible (with the exception of Kurumi who was the only one with a little character depth), the games actually had serious, deadly consequences for losing them like in the Yu Gi Oh manga and Kaiji in order to add tension, Sora actually lost a game once in a while and had to pick himself back up like Kaiji, villains who could actually give Blank a run for it's money and better world building. |

yhunata said: I have no problem with what I put in the spoiler but I wish that all the games had serious consequences for losing them like in Kaiji and the Yu Gi Oh manga and I have no problem with the main characters not being serious sometimes but depth should be added to them (in the form of back stories or character development) so that you can actually care about them. Sora is a guy I don't care about at all as character.Oh, that. I thought you were talking about the games and the characters themselves. |

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. |
| Just from the anime I've seen, I'd have to nominate Geass R2, Kemonozume, and Jyu Oh Sei. |
| Chaos Head VN was great. Anime was crap. |
| Not sure about most wasted, but I was really disappointed with Noucome. The choices could have set up some interesting scenarios, but instead it was always either "obvious choice" and "stupid shit", or "stupid shit" and "even dumber shit". |

Tarextherex said: also @shinsekai yori the problem was that the show was simply boring, the directing was very mediocre, a lot of the emotional scenes felt dull, from the tense scenes to the dialogues betweens the characters. was very hard to care. it was hyped becauseit's rare to have anime that are a mix of many genres and such but there's a ton of gems that people have missed that are much better >boring >directing mediocre >hard to care Dude, I think you just don't like it because I disagree with those. It's not as hyped as other bigger shows, but reason why it was hyped is because: - it's a serious anime (no fanservice, boobs, asspulls, filler etc.) - dystopian speculative sci-fi setting; not done in anime usually - laced story telling style; piece the puzzles together; foreshadowing well done |
mayukachan said: >boring >directing mediocre >hard to care You gotta admit, there were stretches where the show was all of these things. Ultimately they're overshadowed by the good parts because of how awesome they were... but it has an unfortunate mix of rising and falling action in the middle. |
mayukachan said: - it's a serious anime (no fanservice, boobs, asspulls, filler etc.) LIES! I dropped at episode 8 because of typical Otaku pandering bs! /s |
yhunata said: Well this thread is all about personal opinion and as celeminus mentioned there are serious things in the anime so it can't be completely not taken seriously.DrGeroCreation said: I have no problem with what I put in the spoiler but I wish that all the games had serious consequences for losing them like in Kaiji and the Yu Gi Oh manga and I have no problem with the main characters not being serious sometimes but depth should be added to them (in the form of back stories or character development) so that you can actually care about them.

I'd say that's your problem with it, since NGNL isn't the type of thing that should be taken seriously. celeminus said: True , however I found NGNL mildly entertaining.things don't have to be a comedy to be entertaining? celeminus said: That scene was definitely satire directed at the ecchi genre although I didn't particularly find it very funny.also i thought that the scene where he wished away the girls erogenous zones was hilarious since it points out the ridiculousness of the whole ecchi thing where showing boobs is absolutely fine but god forbid you show a nipple. |

| Kamisama no Inai Nichiyoubi This show is really under rated considering there are many many shows rated above it that are quite a bit worse in both writing, directing, and so on. Few shows really captivate me and make me curious from the get go about it's world like this one has and unfortunately it's a completed LN with roughly the same score so I guess the writer didn't adapt the world that much? Pretty solid protagonist & likeable side chars that I really wanted to see expanded on even more. Great world potential, great character potential, but needs a bit of elaboration in both to be excellent. Still enjoyed this show though. |
