What are some entertaining animes (you like, enjoy, hold dear, etc) but don't talk too much about because is not widely accepted because is not an "objectively" good anime in the eyes of the public?

I'd say Noucome is that anime for me, I think.

Any harem show, as it's a fact that most of us don't want to have a look at it with a straight eye, so it's better to not talk too much about them.

None. If i enjoy it, its not trash. There's this anime people enjoy (many do) but call it trash. Kanojo mo kanojo. I read some chapters of the manga and its definitely not trash. Its really good ngl.

You do know that the so-called "objectively good" is bullshitting, right?

I would say The Law of Ueki. In terms of quality, it's probably around a 6/10, but the writer knew how to write an entertaining story, so it was a blast to watch despite the obvious plot holes and simplicity.

I really enjoy Fairy Tail, but it's a pretty terrible anime when you break it down. Much like Dragon Ball, i get lost in the lore and possibilities of it and it has a lot of parallels, especially with how it resolves conflict, unfortunately.

I like to watch these kind of anime after work to relax. They are not masterpieces, people don't ''like'' them but for me are fun-watch series. For example the last ones i watched are:

- Seirei Gensouki
- Kanojo mo kanojo
- Xian Wang de Richang Shenghuo
- Slime Taoshite 300-nen

And now i'm watching Senryuu Shoujo.

There are some kind of anime that are for fun watch to ''escape'' from reality and some of them to make you think, to worry etc.

Darling in the FRANXX is a narrative mess with horrible characters, but I like it.
If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time.

Watch more movies, please.

GGO doesn't have any good characters in there and plot is pretty bland, but man it is a fun dumb action.

Madoka Magica: Rebellion coasted on its incredible art direction and OST, but the plot is downright bad and everyone is acting out of character, especially Sayaka.

For something to be "objectively good," there has to be an agreed upon consensus among the community about what "good" or "bad" anime is (which is nonexistent).

Objectivity is a psyop for terminally online pseuds but yeah, I do like a lot of anime that wouldn't be seen as good in the traditional sense. Genocyber and Angel Cop are goddamn hilarious.

Fairy Tail, Higehiro, and Nagataro (I guess). Kiss x Sis and To Love Ru from my dumb younger self. I always find harem and ecchi animes funny despite the obvious negatives.

Di Gi Charat is one of the stupidest animes I've ever seen but it is super entertaining; I binged the whole show at once (granted the episodes are 3 minutes long)

objectively good doesn't exist, ex-arm can't be objectively bad if it entertains an audience. sure the cg is bad, the pacing, the fight scenes etc but some people would genuinly like it and not because they consider it so bad it's good.

Probably Mnemosyne for me when I was younger. It's so dumb, but at the same time, I was entertained and just in awe of what the fuck was happening in those first few episodes, and I didn't even hate the series by the end then. It's aged a bit poorly for me now but I still can't say that I hate the series even with what all happened there that was head-scratching.

Basically every generic isekai that crops up every season and is universally criticized by the community. I don't know, I like me some trashy isekai garbage just to turn my mind off and watch. Plus, these can also be pretty entertaining shows.

Attack on Titan. No one wants to talk about where Arnold's mom and dad went after that AOT movie. It really didn't answer why they left him at the boarding house with all those people. God it's so depressing.

Consensus opinion ≠ objective.

This is just another "underrated" topic in disguise.

Anyway, Yuri Kuma Arashi has a MAL-average score and I like it a lot more than that.

- Highschool of the Dead
- Kabaneri of the Iron fortress
- Guilty Crown

All three of them are a bit weaker in the story, but damn they were really fun and entertaining to watch.

Nothing is objectively good so my answer would just be my favourites.

If you're looking for guilty pleasures then things like Ore Twintails, Miru Tights, Vividred Operation, and Date a Live are some examples of mine.

Tantei Opera Milky Holmes

batshit crazy and funny as hell but has a low user rating. for people who like dumb random comedy I'd recommend it. But just the first two seasons, which are solid gold.

Later they tried completely changing everything about the show, basically to an entire different genre and it tanked. Then after that they sort of fused ideas from the shitty version and the good version, made a version which is better than the shitty version but still not very good. But each season is a standalone thing so the later seasons don't really affect the good ones.
