Ever seen an otherwise decent anime that was shit just because of one huge flaw?
Change dat shiet!!

I'd probably speed Clannad up 2X. It would make a fine romance/sol anime..

As for Mahouka, I'd probably 86 Miyuki & Tatsuya. The supporting cast are actually more interesting than the main characters..

I think Golden Time would have been a great show, but then they suddenly added ghosts and shit.

Elfen Lied, they could, uhmm...maybe, uhm. You know what, forget it. Elfen Lied is doomed, there's nothing you could change. Once shit, forever shit.

You could cut out all the weird awkward ecchi moments, and it might be better.
Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you.

I think Hyouka would have worked better if it was only 13 episodes. Another should have either stepped up its game to work as an actual horror anime or do an Elfen Lied so that the whole thing is just humorous. None of it was scary and it wasn't even funny until episode 11. Glasslip would have been better if it focused on Sachi and Hiro, Hina, or the chickens. It's a shame that the worst characters got the most screen time.

Either that or you could make MC-kun take advantage of that retarded grown ass toddler girl..

Actually scratch that, rape jokes aren't funny..

Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou had so much potential, but they tried to shove too much into 12 episodes, and it ended up being confusing as heck, especially toward the end.

If they had taken the same story and extended it to two seasons it could have been one of my favorites, possibly on par with High School DxD.

If it only took one flaw to fix in order to make a "bad" anime decent, then the anime in question must not be very bad to begin with.

There's a movie if you really want it to be sped up that badly.

Get back the romance and comedy in "My Teen Romantic Comedy TOO"
“Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's first law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one, and only, truth. But the world isn't perfect, and the law is incomplete..." -Alphonse Elric

I'll take anything like The Pet Girl of Sakurasou. Anything as good as that.

Who needs plot anyways? Saya is enough to carry the whole show.

If they took the blonde kid out of Clannad, it would make everything a lot more bearable.
Still wouldn't like it, but I wouldn't hate it as much.

Couldn't stand him. One of the worst and most forced 'comedic' characters I've seen.

Dedicate Mahouka entirely to Onii-sama's godlike abilities instead of throwing up boring dialogues in a café. That would make the thing at least more funny.

Remove Shuu from Guilty Crown as the main character and put wheelchair girl instead. Then make Segai the main villain.

Anime watchers, really... If you make it fast paced, it will usually badly impact the plot's complexity, character development, and so on.

Replace Devil May Cry's filler storyline with the story of the 1st or 3rd game and it would be a good video game adaptation.

Add at least 10 extra episodes to Grisaia no Kajitsu to make the anime more comprehensible and watchable to non-vn readers.

Yes. Drop the retarded amnesia plot device, flesh out the side characters some more and add spice to the MC. You can still keep the childhood friend temptation to shove in drama, as long as it's handled decently this time around. Golden Time is a great example of quick-fix shows.

While Baka to Test is by no means a bad anime series IMO (it is quite decent/average one overall especially in comparison to other rom-com series like Pet Girl of Sakurasou, Oregairu and Toradora. All of these rom-coms are enjoyable to watch though), I thought it would have been better if Yuko (Hideyoshi's older sister) should be one of the two main heroines of the MC (and his childhood friend) instead of the pink-haired Mizuki. Yuko's character is quite intriguing at best (more interesting than the two main heroines of the MC) but she suffers a bit from having less screen time among the major characters in the entire series (especially in the light novels) while Mizuki's character is reliant on plot conveniences to make her be relevant throughout the entire series especially in the latter volumes of LN (and even so, she's kind of weak character overall).

Do I smell a dagashi kashi saya spin off???

OT:
There are some anime I gave a lower rating due to poor pacing of the plot, too many random occurances, characters acting out of place or the entire cast being too bland.

I felt after story would have been better if the characters had stronger personalities that stood out.
I also would have rated most of the ecchi series higher if they had more consistent plots and original character development.
