Valkyrie_Wings said: Huh. Now that I think about it, I can't remember more than a handful of anime with decent endings and/or last arcs despite having 100+ completed.

| Overuse of moe and fanservice with a combination of harem, where the hottest girls in the whole damn world are in live with the weakest guy on the planet. Everything else is pretty much bearable. |

| Recap episodes. Oh god what's the point of that episode? Well, that usually happens on long run anime and I rarely watch long run anime. |

Oh god what's the point of that episode? Well, that usually happens on long run anime and I rarely watch long run anime. It's far from a disaster. You can just hit skip, or worse case scenario you have to wait a week. It's annoying yes, but harmless. Much worse is when an anime doesn't wrap up at all, ends in the middle of an arc, or ends in a completely rushed, half-assed manner. Which seems to be the industry norm. Now that's a disaster. |

Flashbacks can be overdone but they are rarely just filler. I freaking love Character development but my shot was directed at Naruto (which I cannot marathon because the flashbacks are painful). If a writer is truly skilled he wouldn't need rely on flash backs almost at all if the emotional or psychological impact left by the plot was unforgettable. A few examples of that (my opinion of coarse) would be Clannad and Shuffle! I never forgot a single detail simply due to the immense character depth the Lead Protagonists possessed and how each person played a role in the story... My point summed up basically means... If the cast doesn't blow and the story never has a dull moment then the audience eats up that shit like visual crack and wont need reminders about what they saw 5 episodes ago. |

Wow, this guy seems like a tough dude, his favourite characters are usually villains, and he'd go as fare as kick a baby or a dog, he must be really hardcore, I wonder how i'ts like to be hardcore like him. |

Gon_Killua said: The endings are usually brutally bad IMO. Worst ones are series that don't finish ie Hitman, ippo, D-grey man ( which was biggest let down in anime history). I don't read manga so it's a drag. Opinions? I wouldn't call that "having a bad ending". I would call it "not having an ending" |
| in long animes filler... but in short anime i think,maybe sometimes their ending! |

DYRE said: Kruszer said: -Friggin' Recap Episodes. Do they think we all have ADD or Alzheimer's and can't remember what happened in a show we're following? Or last week even? I typically actually can't remember what happened a week ago in the anime I'm following. At least not until stuff in the current episode reminds me of it. I wish more anime would start out with a "Last time on <series>" thing so I don't spend the first couple minutes of each episode confused. If an anime is not memorable, it means it's not worth watching. If I'm following a show it means I'm interested in it, and I'm going to care enough to remember the plot/character details. If I consistently can't it means it might be time to drop it. |

| Endings. like D-gray Man, Berserk, Claymore. That are just left open and don't finish the series at all. |

| When there is no story line or character development whatsoever..what's the point in watching? When there's excessive fan service and when every single girl has absolutely massive boobs and no brain. When a character becomes overpowered too quickly, it rapidly becomes very boring to watch. When there is no originality..I'm going to get hate for this probably but as much as I enjoyed watching Fairy Tail, I couldn't help but think how it seems to have taken the most successful shounen elements and copied and reused them to churn out an extremely unoriginal and predictable show. |

| The worst thing about anime to me is the fact that sequels and additional seasons can take years to happen.Another thing I dislike about anime is the fact there is a lot of incomplete series and OVAs. |
| Sekirei and pure engagement good endings :D |
| Otaku~~! |
| The whole 'moe' genre is often if not always, accompanied with light-hearted themes such as, slice of life or comedy. All moe really is, is an art style and it works great with those light-hearted themes. |
| The worst thing about anime is the over sexulization of it and the sheer amount of male members on this site with a little girl as their profile image giving everyone proof that anime is for weirdos. |
 |
| Stupid cliches. |

Aside from that, and specially with Lucky Star which doesn't even rely that much on being moe (it even has the structure of a sketch comedy); did wuggums47 just say that these shows are not crap because of moe? So moe is good after all? scabab said: The worst thing about anime is the over sexulization of it and the sheer amount of male members on this site with a little girl as their profile image giving everyone proof that anime is for weirdos.
