The worst for me is Star Ocean EX; my very first anime. The studio who did it butchered the story of the excellent game it's based on, Star Ocean 2, turning the last part into some utterly retarded battle against robots.

The ONLY good thing about Star Ocean EX was Dias Flac; my favourite character from the game.

Elfen Lied easy. I have never seen a show with such stupid characters and such bad dialogue...and the way they told the story just pissed me off.

I don't understand why so many people hate Love Hina. I know it's random and unrealistic and spastic but it's entertaining and it's got a good story behind it.

I've never seen the Kodomo no Jikan anime but I read the manga...and it really is an exciting manga, I wish people didn't write it off just because of the age of the characters. Yeah, it's loli, but there's an actual story to it, and it's pretty deep. If you read into it it's supposed to bring up these societal issues of love and sex and youth and it's kinda *supposed* to make the average reader feel uncomfortable in a way. Meaning, it's not for everyone.

It's not just pedo bait or loli smut, it's got actual substance. I don't think there's anything wrong with a normal person reading it that can separate the actual message of the story out of the manga and its characters.

Sure, people will argue that lolicon as a storytelling device is immoral, or encourages abuse, or whatever, but American/European readers have to realize that Japan has somewhat different societal norms. Not to say that sleeping with a 10 year old is acceptable over there; obviously not. But KnJ didn't cause half the outrcry over there as it did when an American publisher tried to license it.


Love Hina probably had the two most annoying lead characters I've seen in anything, ever. I enjoyed the first six eps or so, then the same old jokes got incredibly stale. I'm planning to read the manga, because I know how great of a storywriter Ken Akamatsu can be. I'd give the anime a 3 if it wasn't for the fact that it at least had SOME lulzy moments.

KODOMO NO JIKAN IS AWESOME, K.

Actually I think I agree with the guy who said Dragonaut is worse...

I don't think I've ever heard as much nonsense spouted on this website as I did just there.

At the risk of being hated by people, I hate Naruto and One Piece more than I can say. And beyond that I truly despise Shaman King.
Maybe it's because I've seen English dubs of all three of those, and my sister watches the first two nonstop. Regardless, I see these shows on TV and go "What? NO!!!! That's not how a ____ (insert singular noun) _____s (insert present singular verb) you idiot!" example... "What? NO!!! That's not how a ninja dresses you idiot!"
Oh yeah, and Sonic X was a disgrace, it's the reason I stopped liking Sonic the Hedgehog.
...And Avatar.
I guess I hate any anime on any American kids channels, i.e. FoxBox (which doesn't exist anymore... thank god), Jetix, Nick, or Toonami. Well, those are all program blocks but you get what I'm saying.

WHAT! Don't put toonami in with that lot man its just gone down hill, there was a time where it showed unedited tenchi muyo and the dub wasn't that bad for the show.

Overall... I'd say probably Eyeshield 21. The anime removed a lot of the jokes that made the manga fun and then started adding in filler which completely screwed things up.

D. Gray Man was much in the same as it skipped and changed stuff early on. I suppose it might have gotten better later on, but there was just so much changed early on that I couldn't take it, but it didn't annoy me anywhere near as much as what had happened with Eyeshield 21

I've dropped a bunch of terrible ones, but the worst one I've actually watched all the way through is DearS. The whole series, I was thinking WTF?? The plot is so complicated and yet nothing EVER gets explained! >______< It just shoves situations in your face and hopes you figure it out yourself.

Naruto. Never should have gotten the green light. Basically the whole damn series is nothing but filler. They should have just started out with Shippuden. Inuyasha also, basically for repetiveness.

Final Fantasy - Unlimited = NO
One Piece = Hell No. (At least for the god-awful english dub)

Air Gear, which was about the single most awful, horrible, stereotype anime I've ever seen. So I ended up only watching the first episode before I deleted the whole folder and cursed over how some human being could put so much fail into 20 minutes of screen time.

Have you looked through this thread? There are people that don't like the same things, some that don't like Neon Genesis Evangelion, and a host of others. Why should I care? It's my opinion, just like everyone elses. Many have said they didn't like Final Fantasy and the same with Inuyasha. Naruto was indeed shit because of the fillers. Read the thread before posting something stupid.

Which one? The first and second were basically extended episodes. The third was epic. The fourth was terrible. I think Naruto's second movie was far worse than any of the four though. First Naruto movie was great, third was 'okay' but the second was such trash. >.<

For standalone movies, I've definitely seen worse than the popular series related ones.
