Legend of the Galactic Heroes, no one would complain.


LotGH haters would complain.

k-on fans


I would ban them.


Good luck, their numbers increase monthly yearly.

Omfg I actually feel sad for them, let them be this time 8)

How can you hate a series you haven't even watched? Besides, if you only hate it because everyone else loves it, then that's like loving hitler because everyone hates him.

But well, it's not like there's a point in talking about what's on the top list and what is not.

amichaaan, I seriously wondered too, but I think these people actually like it. I remotely know a guy myself who watches it very avidly.


You hate a series before even watching it ... that's just ... THE SMARTEST THING I HAVE READ ALL DAY!!!

No but seriously, I am not too surprised seeing as how neither Gintama nor LotGH contain way too much moe, that you hate them.

I'm german, what do you think?

Hate was a strong word, it's rather that I can't stand LotGH. The fanbase is overly obnoxious and makes it out to be the best thing ever and constantly fawns over the show, while there's nothing obviously special about it at first. And they don't state any actual reasons as to why the show is supposedly good either, it almost sounds like when people talk about how good Boku no Pico is.

Too little moe wasn't the problem with Gintama, that Rie girl was moe as fuck.

So basically others are able to influence your own opinion?

To a certain extent, of course.

It's not just the fanbase why I can't stand the show, I simply don't see the appeal. The art is shitty, the setting doesn't sound especially interesting or whatever. And yet the fans continue to fawn over it like it's the holy grail of anime, I seriously can't tell whether it's trolling or not. Especially since I encountered most of these threads on /a/, I'm not too familiar with MAL forums.
I mean, let's take a show like Psycho Pass. I'm not a big fan of PP either, didn't even finish it, but I can see the appeal at least. Even before watching the show.

Yeah, the fan base is obviously elitist. I don't want this to become a logh thread, and my lack of knowledge over the show is apparent as I haven't finished yet. All I know is that it is a highly detailed show that demands all of your attention and focus. That's why a lot of the fans think they're hot stuff. But don't judge a series based on its fan base, as I'm not a fan and I can surely say it is well worth the watch and it rightfully deserves its rank.

You might have a point there natssuu. You guys got me curious now though, how many episodes do you think I need to have seen to grasp the concept and appeal of LotGH? Because I can imagine a show like this starting out slowly, and I neither want to force myself through 30 episodes, nor do I want to drop it after 2 if it only picks up later on.

Some Gintama fans are kinda butthurt over the score dropping, even though FMA trounces it in the amount of votes. They're doing everything they can to hold on to #1.

u did not just say that, ur saying an anime about a group of moeblobs who spend all of screen time drinking motherfucking tea and eating cake, is objectively better than an epic space opera, with realistic strategy and 100s of named characters all with characterization....

id say you should watch the remake movie Overture to a New War (Arata Naru Tatakai no Overture) which is a remake of the first 2 eps with extended scenes, ill be honest i thought the anime didnt start in a good way but this remake fixed the problems, i got addicted around ep 10

Definitely, since those episodes mainly help you get familiar with the characters, the setting, the main conflict, etc.
From then on it picks up and the real depth so gallantly praised is presented.

Thanks, a movie and 10 episodes is something I definitely can do. Really curious to see what the fuss is about, allthough I know I should settle my expectations down.

Also, thanks to Tavor for responding as well.

Even though the plot isn't fast-paced or anything, the reason I got hooked in it was because of the main characters. So if the characters aren't to your liking, you might as well just drop it.

That's the same how I feel with One Piece. Seems like a series that is less-demanding and more of just something to enjoy when I'm not feeling up for serious stuff. But, for God's sake, look at the amount of episodes.
