It's super character-driven, so if you don't like the characters, then that's that.

This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi!

"Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news.
Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people.
Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation.
There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime.
You should be watching Carole & Tuesday."

SAO was so awful. And Elfen Lied too. I know a lot of people that like those animes.

And in the romance side, Akagami no Shirayuki Hime

Probably Attack on Titan. I don't hate it, but rather I don't understand the hype that it gets.

I liked the characters quite a lot, I just wasn't a fan of the plot...I expected the entire time travelling aspect of it to be explored even more, and I was sad it wasn't...

I agree. So much hype for this, but it was average in my opinion.

Code Geass and TTGL. Not a fan of mecha.

Cowboy Bebop. Episodic af, not a fan of futuristic or space shit. A lot of the episodes were boring.

With Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, I found it pretty boring until the last 12 episodes, and even in those last 12 episodes, I got pretty annoyed when a character came out of nowhere to save another character's life just in time, which happened several times. Also, Edward Elric is annoying and the comedy is awful.

I almost always enjoy your typical mainstream anime series, not sure if I even have one series I'd dislike that much :o

I don't think Attack on Titan is all that great --- I see it as average. Decent manga too, but not great.

clannad afterstory, code geass from what i've watched. i really despise those two. toradora as well. steins;gate i dislike but not completely, though again i consider it very overrated and people seem to forget it's a harem at heart.

i also don't like cowboy bebop. yeah, it's nicely directed and has some good combat, but severely overrated. plus, i wasn't a fan of the episodic nature of it, it didn't seem to work for this particular anime.

i also don't want to try monster or naruto, they just don't appeal to me.

i'm also very biased against legend of the galactic zeroes but i kinda wanna try it just to know if i was right or not

Steins; Gate, I've said it a zillion times here and I will say it again; it was not the second coming of Jesus or something, felt so conned with the high rating it has here.

One Piece has to be the other I don't know how can so much people watch that.

No Game No Life, Death Note, Angel Beats, and Another were all ones I liked at first but by the end were a pain to finish. Might as well throw in Code Geass and Log Horizon as well.

Same here, I've tried Naruto and Naruto Shippudden (currently watching) but can't seem to find any interesting parts at the moment. I'm still curious though how it will end (particularly the couple ships) so I might continue to watch it.

I'm with you. I watched half of the first season and it just didn't excite me. My friends hate me for this opinion.

Akame ga Kill has gotten quite a lot of flak in spite of its popularity but I don't think I've met anyone who hates it as much as I do. The tone is an absolute mess, the blandness of the characters is belied by their striking designs and the villains are cringe inducingly one dimensional. That being said I haven't gotten too far into it, and I really do not intend to continue.

I also found the first episode of Lucky Star bland and unfunny. I may or may not continue watching it though.
Take care of yourself

There isn't one. I enjoyed every anime I watched that can be considered "mainstream". Not a sheep though, just my honest feelings.

Out of the top 50 rated anime, the only one I've rated under a 7 is Monster. Now, Monster is fine—that's why I rated it a 6—but a 6 in this case is nonetheless offbeat.

Maybe slow-burning, mystery-type shows just aren't my style.

If I had to choose one mainstream anime to remove forever from the anime universe it would be Fullmetal Alchemist. That show had literally one good moment which was episode 4? and the rest was just...... Anyway, I didn't like Toradora and Mushishi as well, but I guess that's just personal preference.

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex

I loved the movie, but the series did not have any of it's quality. I lost interest very quickly and it annoyed me how different the characters looked from the movie versions of them. Major seemed like a completely different and much less interesting person as well.
