I will probably never finish One Piece, unless One Pace makes a decent edit. I just can't stand the new world pacing. Still an excellent show.

I will never finish one piece because it will never end, fans can say what they want, oda can say what he wants but it's futile.

Lol here incomes a bunch of One Piece hate . I feel like a lot of threads such as: ''Whats the slowest anime youve watched'' or ''whats an anime you will never finish'' is just a roundabout way of getting everyone to hate on a specific show.

Guilty F.....g Crown, i can't continue it after 12 episodes, because it's the most retarded thing i've ever experienced. The characters, the story, everything in it... i just simply can't..
Easily my worst experience in anime.

It's definitely "Gintama" for me. I got far enough into that series that there was a major reveal that felt like a slap to the face and was the final nail in the coffin. I don't care to find out what happens next. Additionally, I primarily enjoyed the series for its comedy (which "Gintama" focuses less and less on as it progresses) and was watching the anime only because I was watching it with someone else, but they got that I wasn't feeling it anymore and I have moved since then, so I have even less of a reason to continue it on my own even if I didn't completely lose interest already.

I will keep One Piece dropped because I don't believe it's wrapping up any time soon.

Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card. Because it gives me this uncanny feeling reminiscent of the final chapter of Peter Pan (or the alternate ending of the 2003 movie) where I've grown up a lot since then, but Sakura is still the same as she was some 20 years ago.

Kotoura-san is staying dropped because of her awful grandpa that has constant incredibly creepy sexual thoughts about his granddaughter (she has the ability to read minds, for context). Not a fan of that kind of thing personally.

Edit: I just want to add that I had no idea of any of this going into the show and I also tried to push through and just watch it despite it, but...yeah the show just wasn't good imo, for several reasons, this being one of the bigger ones.

@aweebwhoexists may I recommend Boku no Pico instead then? Pico's grandpa certainly has no such thoughts towards his grandson, he just introduces him to his employee and fucks off somewhere on a vacation. I believe the family values in this show will not disappoint you

@BirdyTheMighty I'll give some credit to Pico's grandpa for not wanting to f*** his grandson personally. That's better than Kotoura-san's grandpa at least. But Pico's grandpa is also not getting any points for letting him go off and sensually eat ice cream (and other things but I didn't watch that far lmao) with the adult stranger who was stalking him all day 😂

@aweebwhoexists no no, it wasn't a stranger, it was the aforementioned employee of his granpas store, no worries.

No stranger danger was allowed, just perfectly normal sensual icecream consumption with a suspiciously tight-fitting shorts wearing young lad and a responsible adult senpai. Something we obviously all do, and is a completely normal thing no?

@BirdyTheMighty Yeah perfectly normal indeed and that's why that lovely title got a solid 1 from me, because it's clearly the number 1 most normal anime on the website and I want its average score to reflect that so everyone knows it's the number 1 title to stay away from-I mean enjoy with friends while sensually dribbling ice cream all over their suspiciously tight shorts yep.

@BirdyTheMighty Oh I appreciate it all right! I appreciate the beginning of that OVA being burned into my brain from when I was...probably around Pico's age and had the subarashii experience of searching up Boku no pico out of curiosity. I appreciate that seeing Boku no pico that fine afternoon kept me from ever searching for anything of a similar nature ever again! :) It taught me a valuable life lesson about the internet, that's for certain.

@aweebwhoexists good, good. Subarashi experiences at a young age are important for healthy development, glad to hear it my friend.

Kakegurui and Perfect Blue. It kind feels eerie to watch them. I just can get past 7 mins let alone an episode or two lol. Idk.

Crayon shin-chan since from what I can tell so many episodes are completely unavailable if you don't catch them on Japanese TV, let alone if you're outside Japan. The little bit I've seen of it is good but I'll probably be better off watching the movies instead of trying to see as much of the main series as I can.

My happy Marriage, the anime itself is not bad but i cannot stand the VA of Miyo , i am sure that she has done wonderful work in other series but in this one brings out the caveman in me.

Platinum End becuase it is the most abysmal dog slop I have ever been subjected to and I do not know how I stomached as much as I did. You could get better story telling from a monkey on a typewriter.

One Piece,however what's funny is that i've watched all of Pokemon up to the Horizons season so i might as well give OP a go because length is the only reason why i haven't touched One Piece yet
Gintama's another one that comes to mind and again,i'd probably like it but i can't get myself to watch it,it's like there always seems to be a certain show that pops up thet i end up watching instead of Gintama

I'd say AOT because the ending was spoiled all over the internet and that while I tried my best to stay away from any spoilers.

Never say never! However, chances are slim I'll watch it and If I do then it's very low priority.

I wouldn't finish One Piece either. It has way too many episodes to watch. It is better to watch shorter anime series.

Gintama. It seems it just gets more 'serious', and I originally watched it for the characters, their tropes and the comedy. I do not care that their teacher is some immortal Joe or whatever it devolved into.

I also want to give a mention to Spy x Family. I finally tried it last year, but it just seems it's going absolutely nowhere, and the writing is just not good enough to remain entertaining for me. I am unsure of the popularity that show has.

One Piece and Naruto. One Piece is too long and Naruto doesn't interest me. I tried to watch one episode but I didn't like it.

Probably Monster. I've heard the plot is really good, but it's also pretty long and I'm not super into serial killers. I've already dropped it once, still waiting on my hdd for a second try but I'm just not in the mood for this series.

Many of those super long 800+ episodes i watched like One Piece, Shin Chan and Case Closed/Detective Conan.

Another reason i might not finish Shin-Chan is because i love that really bizarre funimation dub that was on adult swim and it was never finished.

Shitcom and Puzzle of Autumn are shorts i refuse to touch because of the nasty subject material, plus Puzzle of Autumn could send someone to the hospital with it's flashing lights

Bleach i might never finish because i don't think Megan Hollingshead plays Rangiku anymore.

Lychee Light Club, Inferno Cop and Striking Daughter i started and i just find them too weird and disturbing
My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine.

We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by

@AestusCaelum I had the same answer, but you should add a spoiler warning for the teacher thing - especially since that doesn't get revealed until later on in "Gintama." We might not care about the series, but someone does and they'll get spoiled if they read your comment.

Yu☆Gi☆Oh! Duel Monsters. Strike the Blood. Anything long and that feels plot-empty past some point really.

I'll never watch every Gundam show, because while I have watched and liked some, I am not much of a mecha fan.
