Your opinion, I don't have to agree with it.
Having read the TG manga I can say that I enjoyed the anime better, even with all the censorship.
I don't know what to say about SAO because I've only watched the anime and I liked it.
Naruto fillers suck, I know, but when you get over those the anime is great.


you clearly don't see difference between objectively and subjectively

@Darkuszow No. I think it's you that doesn't understand the difference tbh.

There's nothing wrong with having favourites like that. I don't see why it matters either. Although, to answer your question, my first impressions of the list is that they've not seen a lot of anime. Don't think I've ever seen somebody that's watched a lot of anime with both Naruto's in their favourites. Still, nothing wrong with that, though. More power to you if they're in your top 10.

My first reaction to this list isn't 'you have shit taste' it's 'You can't have both Naruto's on there, you have to pick one!!'. I can not stand people who do things like that.

If you need to add both Naruto and Shippuuden, you probably haven't seen that much. Not because they're bad, but because people who've seen a lot usually don't spend two spots in their favorites on the same show because they have more favorites they want to showcase.

Also I generally assume trolling when School Days is involved.
I probably regret this post by now.

My first impression is that this person probably either has other hobbies or they are an extrovert so they don't actually watch that much anime.

I cringed and thought "they need to explore more anime" but yeah I have a friend who has worse taste imo but I'm not going to force my opinion on them. Plus, Bleach, TG, and Naruto are pretty decent shows at least.

what is wrong with having naruto and bleach , tokyo ghoul in your favs.

Both have an unique / story (the big series). It has drama, romance, action, comedy, supernatural . It has litterly evry shit. And its a long journey that wont end in 1-3 days like 12 episode animes.

Dont expect evryone to like lolly stuff or 10-year-old-chans and hardcore highschool drama/romance so you can admire you virtuel ''waifu'' and talk about your friends what you want to do with her. (◕‿◕✿) (◕‿◕✿) (im talking especially about the males)

The OP didnt even list his own favs and completed animes on profile and is talking about 1st impressions (◕‿◕✿) .

I haven't watched School Days, but the others are good anime, even with the amount of filler in Naruto, it's not bad.
TG and SAO are great anime from my point of view.
And I don't have to say anything about Bleach, because it's a masterpiece.

So if I were to answer to your question, you're saying that if they like those anime they have bad taste, if you don't like an anime that doesn't make it bad you know.

What if I told you that besides School Days, they are objectively bad
half of naruto and half of naruto shippuuden is a filler
TG and SAO are half assed adaptations


Naruto and Bleach are still better than School Days, they have at least one good characters which I can't say the same for SD.

Honestly DxD wasn't bad at all. I mean okay the ecchi borderline-hentai is off the charts but ignoring that, I think the universe and plotline was actually okay.

Saying that you watch series like Highschool DxD for the plot is like saying that you go to pornhub.com to see how is the plumber going to fix the pipe.

There's no such thing as an elitist anime. I'll never understand why so many people on MAL have absolutely no idea what elitist actually means.

Let people enjoy what they wanna enjoy.

I would recommend more shonen to them. And tell them to read the manga, because Naruto, Bleach and Tokyo Ghoul are better in manga form in my eyes (the first two because of artstyle).

Well I didn't say that I specifically watch it for the plot, but I don't watch it to jerk off either do I because there are other things way better for that. I watched the first season and the point I was making is if you removed the ecchi then the rest stands on its own well enough. Add back in the ecchi and some people will really like that.

I mean, they could actually put a comparable "good" series at the top like White Album 2 instead of going full meme with School Days.

Seriously though, I'd probably just figure that we don't share a lot of taste. Either that or that they don't have much experience with the medium.

That works, I do have a pop up blocker add-on to Firefox. As for that list, I would assume they were a casual viewer who got into anime by randomly picking stuff on Crunchyroll.

I just joined this site and will take me forever just to do my completed list as I was buying bootleg Japanese no sub DBZ tapes (yes VHS) in high school in the early 90s and rewatching Akira over and over, lol. That being said I hope this post is not representative of these forums as "shit taste" is a term that should be used for moronic comments not someone's favorite list. I'm just happy that anime has come so far and the more people that watch it the better for all of us who enjoy the medium. I'm not one to hand out "cool points" for random otaku who only watches obscure anime and thinks that anything popular sucks. I have enjoyed 3 of the anime on his list myself and I watch anything good or recommended, "popular" or not. So kudos to finding anime brother. List looks good.

It's very bland. I think he only starts popular anime, whether it's a title mentioned on forums on how crap it is or on top of the popular anime list. Having Naruto and School Days is fine but the rest is boring. Now I think about it, it could be that be likes them and thats that.

That's why I said it's better having pretty much anything else instead of series like DxD. At least I'll always have a better impression about them than the one I have about perverts. But each to their own I guess

Never watch School Days. Ok list I guess but then again, don't really care. It's other people business.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

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.

I'd find the person weird, since School Days is his favorite anime ever, especially considering the titles that go below it. It's just hard to comprehend a taste like that. It could also mean he's seen only several, mostly popular anime, but even then School Days seems weird atop the list.

School Days ain't that bad and the other shows gained popularity for a reason.

I always tell myself that people who watch shows like that just watch them to be able to talk with others about it.
