SAO.
naruto, bleach, one piece.

thats pretty much it.

the big 3 because who the hell has time to waste on that many episodes, and from what ive seen of all 3 none of them held my interest.
and SAO due to the clusterfuck of hate/praise it gets, id rather not bother with the commotion, and i have better things to watch tbh.

i refuse to watch animes that have echhi or fanservice because that tells,in broad outlines, the seriousness of the show and now i´m into more serious animes.Sometimes it can be funny though(if we are talking about comedy or parody animes) but this kind of animes do not give me the "wow" feeling after i finished them.

animes that have 50+ animes or many seasons are algo a pain for me 24-26 chapters is the proper length in my opinion

I really find it funny how people just turn down the long-running shonens just because they're long. I mean, I'm going to college (takes up to 7-8 hrs on a full day) and I have to study. But I still find the time to watch them along with doing other necessary things. I also watch other anime.

Maybe their mindset is because it's long it's hard to catch up or to keep track on. But I think you can just watch one or two episode per day just like you watch other anime.

You do know its the same art style as every other kyo ani show right, the eyes may be slightly larger but thats not a art style, though its eyes are almost identical to haruhi's except the guys in it have different eyes

Exactly. It's kinda stupid to think that because an anime is too long, it's a waste of time to watch it. I, myself, watch One Piece in an on-or-off schedule. I marathon it for about two or three days, then leave it for another couple of days (and repeat). It's not taxing and it's definitely worth it if the story is good or the anime is just simply entertaining enough.

Yes, because how eyes are drawn has nothing to do with art. (τ_τ )

Yet another person that immedietely jumps to an ignorant conclusion about art. How about focusing on the visuals rather than just the EYES? What about the actual features that actually LOOK human like the body and what about the background colours? Key are praised for their top quality artwork so how can you say their artwork is hideous?


Because it's not his cup of tea. Art is something that is completely subjective to each person, so just because Key's art is "top quality", it can still be hideous to another person. Long story short, it's his opinion. Take me, for example. I'm pretty sure that Haruhi might be a very good anime, but I still refuse to watch it since my experience with it isn't good (seriously, falling asleep within 5 minutes in 3 different tries is rather horrendous and experience). Simply put, it wasn't my cup of tea, same as SirPigeon and Clannad's art.

I realise that moe is not for everyone, don't get me wrong, but just looking at the eyes and ignoring everything else that is actually more subtle is pretty judgemental.

Naruto - I can't handle watching any filler episodes any more. I made it through Bleach, I had my fair share. Plus the fanbase is mostly 13 year old boys.

DBZ - No.

Bakemonogatari series - It's just the 2 characters talking and then the "camera" zooming into various body parts of the female character. I can't do it. Overrated and over-hyped. The art is cool by itself. Too bad it's wasted on a series that's overrun with tsunderes.

Not saying you are. Moe isn't for everyone, that too I know. Why, just a look at our fellow member I_Am_Biased, or even good ol' Date will tell you all you need to know on that aspect.

The thing is, to judge a show by it's artwork, no matter how stupid it may seem or is, nobody has the right to call that judgmental. In the end, it still falls on preference. And let's be honest, the eyes in Clannad is enough to throw anyone off. I, myself, were refusing to watch it for a long time, despite my open-mindedness, simply due to eye designs.

And from what you said before (in the post I originally quoted), you seem to have implied that the eyes weren't such an important aspect. Why, you are very wrong in that. The eyes can make or break a character. Eyes, naturally, are the first thing (most) humans will look at. Therefore, eyes are, truly, the most important factor in an artwork of a human being (or any other living being, with eyes, for that matter).

You really have a valid point on that. And the eyes can tell someone's character, which is very true but if one thing is bad but the rest is good then it isn't exactly hideous artwork. If a character's entire features looked horrible then I would definetely see some truth in that and enough to call it horrible, but I suppose once you get used to it it's not that bad. And the guy's eyes in Clannad are okay. It's just the girls. Tomoya's eyes look close enough to being more realistic.

Harem series. I can't imagine enjoying having to watch five+ stereotypical teenage girls going after the same guy, crying and backstabbing and reconciliating... Harem shows just write female characters in a way that disgusts me.

Long (52+) shounen/comedy series without a clear central plot and a bazillion fillers. Short comedy series are fine but otherwise I really hate stuff like slapstick comedy in anime, or characters that deliver all their lines shrieking like a banshee: yelling something doesn't make it funny.

For someone who hates so much of shounens, you sure do rate them rather highly.


those must be the other 5% :D


Or maybe he doesn't know that Shonen is a demographic and thinks that Shonen means Naruto, One Piece and Bleach.


like everyone else <_<


Shounens are way to simple, childish and the characters are way to heroic. They usually think with their heart instead of their brain. Like in the 2nd arc of SAO, when Kirito was against Sugou Naboyuki (the dude that wanted to marry asuna), Kirito gave him a sword, a chance. It really makes me drop a show.

I should rate them lower, now that ive seen better anime which are actually worth an 8.

can't tell if you're talking about me, looks like a comment was deleted or something...

But, as I mentioned, I refuse to watch it. That is, I never have seen even a second of the show, only pictures like what I posted. So all I really know about the style is how the characters are drawn, and I can't really judge the background artwork.

(also, I'm 'a rant some more, and don't bother arguing, this is one of those "just a feeling" opinions)

Cowboy Bebop, Clannad, Air

For Bebop, it's been hyped up so much that unless it cures cancer I will end up disappointed.

For Clannad and Air, I have been told they're sad so often that if I ever watch one of them, my Cynical Iron Armor will be so thick I'll be bored no matter how tragic things actually are.

Thats probably because Elfen Lied spends 5 episodes telling you a story you figured out in the first episode.

While I ain't someone who like "thinking with the heart", you have to understand that it's more liked b the demographic that they're targeting. I've seen loads of shonen worth an 8, hell even a 9. You're being blinded because you're not looking past that.
