Hidamari Sketch. I don't even feel I can add it to my list in good conscience. I usually wait until episode 7 to decide whether or not to drop an anime, but pure slice of life, with no comedy/romance/drama or anything is an exception.

Totally boring, and none of the girls are as cute as all the "HNNNNG" and "Nutbladder" jokes lead me to believe.
Oooh, agreed. Also recently too. I pretty much knew from the first episode, but lasted to episode 3 before dropping. You?
And what "Nutbladder" jokes are you referring to?

I just barely finished the first episode, it was that tedious, uncute and unfunny. Plus the animation style's horrendous.

The Law of Ueki. Not that I had my hopes up too high, but it pleasantly surprised me in the beginning. Since then it's been spiraling downwards like its life depended on being a stereotypical shounen.

Nazo no Kanojo X. First episode made me thought that it will be some unusual anime. Old looking drawing style, and strange plot makes me feel like I've watching very original, mysterious and unpredictable series. Now I'm bored with it.

Seto no Hanayome I would thought it turned out to be much entertaining but I guess it was okie and after watching first few episodes, it wasn't really the type of anime I enjoy

One Piece - Thriller Arc. I read many comments of people who said that it's the best saga in OP, and I'm not even enjoying it like previous ones... I hope it will change for better, since I'm at the half of it.

Gurren Lagann....just seemed so boring, the characters seem very bland as does the setting. Didn't appreciate a recap episode 5 episodes in either, or the reused animation that kept popping up in episodes. Episode 8 was good but not enough to make me carry on.

Agreed, though I was cool with the setting. People made Gurren Lagann out to be the best thing since sliced bread, and while I did somewhat enjoy it overall, it wasn't THAT good. Incredibly senseless near the middle after a certain death, fights are simply rush-cuts that don't really show much of anything, terribly repetitive for a while with some episodic villain to beat up, gaining power and somehow winning with "guts"... yeah, none of that meshed well with me.

But still, I would recommend watching it at least till the time shift somewhere in the second half. The show changes quite a bit there. I have a friend that actually didn't enjoy Gurren Lagann much until the time shift. Quoting her:
itsvero said:
I'm happy to say that I'm enjoying this 2nd part MUCH more than the 1st, where it was just battles and no story. I really prefer the dark, angsty type of anime, so I'm really glad that they made that change. It was probably a 6 or 7 in the beginning, and now I'd like to say it's about an 8.5-9ish. Yay for that!

It's not so much cheap horror as it was a fairly typical Japanese horror story centered around folklore and superstition.

Amnesia...The anime deviates from its plot and relys on copious amounts of fanservice, not to mention that the main protagonist is a complete dullard.

Lucky Star.
I was going into it hoping for something like Acchi Kocchi, I was disappointed. The only episode I liked was episode 22(well the second half of it anyway), which was actually really touching and almost brought a tear to my eye.

Umm Shakugan no Shana III is the only one I can think of that I was really disappointed in lately. The plot twist was stupid and made no sense at all. I have dropped quite a few anime since then, but that's mostly cause I got bored, not necessarily disappointed, because I didn't know what to expect. But I was looking forward to the third season of Shakugan no Shana for a few years, so disappointment hit me harder when I finally started the third season and they introduced a really crap and dumb plot twist.

Latest disappointment huh? Well...

Inazuma Eleven GO 2: Chrono Stone
Somehow the previous ones captured me with the interesting characters and somewhat shounen like plot, but this season is starting to look like they air it for the sake of continuing it.


Although I wasn't sure what I hoped it to be, but right now it is total crap, boring story,characters. Fighting looks stupid and unneeded. Harem anime with fighting implemented in them are rarely good anyway.

Agreed. The sappy, overdone romance was the bane of the otherwise fantastic show. Too often, it felt like Hitomi couldn't think about anything else but her romantic troubles. An entire village is in grave danger of annihilation, but oh noes, Allen might not like me anymore.


I adore Escaflowne and all of its flaws, but that is damn hilarious.

I have two for this season i think Eureka Seven AO and Upotte!!.

Eureka Seven AO because it doesn't have that same original Eureka Seven feeling and is not going very well its still pretty good, but not as good as i thought it would

Upotte!! because the summary sounded interesting and it had something interesting first few episodes, but it failed it keep it interesting. Nothing really happens in it.

... Texhnolyze, I guess.

I've only watched five episodes, but I can already see it's going to let its arty-ness get in the way of it being interesting/fun.

The worst kind of entertainment.

I'm just this side of dropping it.

I remember being slightly disappointed with Ano Natsu de Matteru.
Felt like i had seen it before, because of Onegai Teacher.

Loved the OST tho, and Yamano Remon is super cute. Why didn't they involve her with the romance? :( Same with Morino Ichigo from Onegai Teacher/twins.

I'm guessing that is what they were going for, a psuedo-remake using the same stuff the creator is good at. Kind of like Cross Game being so much like Touch.

Didn't they say that was the direction they were going for in production?

Since when was Elfen Lied hipster....lol??

Anyway Dusk Maiden of Amnesia for me. The horror elements are barely there, the mysteries are uninteresting and it has way too much school "comedy" for my tastes.

Hyouka has been a bit disappointing so far, pretty dull. But I'm sticking with it for now as it at least isn't cookie cutter material.

Gantz 2nd was so disappointing. I'd really gotten into the show by the end of the first season, too. :(
