| Hunter x Hunter (2011) was merciless in over explaining everything from obvious intentions to strengths and weaknesses in an unironic jojos style, to filling episodes up with unnecessary dialogue about literally anything to meet the episode run time. |

| I haven't had one anime that insulted me or treated me like a baboon. I wish it did. Can anime even talk back at you if you throw a tub of water at it? or shout "iyah! senpaii dame~~" I would like more interaction out of it. /s If you are talking about a waste of time when it comes to unfolding of plot and the drama, just take any battle shounen OR my personal favourite : Big Order. One of the best story telling experiences in my opinion. The manga is even better. |
 Truly a Divine Comedy  |
| Fairy Tail, Natsu punching space time and magic with his nakama punch is my favorite. |
 |
| Every shounen anime when they stop the fight to explain how their powers work. |

RetroBite said: Yeah, i would have rated it much higher without that arc. It had such an impact on my scoring because it was a 3rd of the anime, the longest arc of the series so far. It's not a terrible anime, but it has glaring issues.Lunilah said: Hunter x Hunter (2011) was merciless in over explaining everything from obvious intentions to strengths and weaknesses in an unironic jojos style, to filling episodes up with unnecessary dialogue about literally anything to meet the episode run time. Yeah, or like in Kaiji. I find that level of spoonfeeding kinda comical, but oh well. Sad part was, that HxH wasn't like that, up until the Chimera Ant Arc. |

| @RetroBite @Lunilah I kinda liked the super obvious narration. To me it felt like somebody was reading me a book. I thought it was a unique touch to the show, and that it put emphasis on certain scenes. To answer the original question though, I felt like Gargantia and Samurai Flamenco totally thought that I was retarded |
| Heavy Object had an MC obviously intended as an audience surrogate that was so amazingly pathetic, I was both offended and disgusted by the idea that anybody was intended to identify with him. |

HeroicIdealism said: Haven't seen the Gatari franchise yet, but for Jojos, that's kinda the point. As i stated with my HxH 2011 post, they did it in an unironic Jojos style. Jojos doesn't get extra points for being an ironic parody of itself, but it excuses the insult in my opinion.Monogatari and Jojo, especially their fandoms |

| Any anime with battle scenes in which the characters are explaining what their skills do. Unless there are some hidden effects, everything an ability does can be clearly seen and understood so it's really annoying when character says what just happened / is about to happen / is happening, like I don't own a pair of working eyes and a functioning brain. |
 I'm watching anime since 2012. I also play games, sometimes. Don't bother me if you want to 'become friends' or things like that. It's tiresome. I know you just want to collect some meaningless numbers. Thought: How many people sparked H. Charlotta just for blue pot? |
| Kill la kill, I like the anime but... Spoilers ahead >Ryuko cuts hers "clothes" and use it to cover Sanageyma eyes. >Sanageyma keep talking that he can't see shit with it in his eyes. >Seketsu explain the plane to no one just because. Some times a little explanation is needed, other times the explanation can be silly fun but there are so many of these shit moment's in the first 12 eps ... |

Thought of another anime: Elfin Lied. Like you expect me to believe that people would be so dumb to take retarded naked woman with horns to their house and not call the cops? bruv c'mon |
| The bird metaphors in the early episodes of Darling in the FranXX were a quite direct offense. Actually stretch that to every visual metaphor in the series. |

Can we take a minute to talk about the fact that they (kids) are called by the names of flowers sexual organs? Was there anything in those robots that wasn't sexual? Or the kiss between their city's? Why those adults have to call every time using some sexual innuendo? Oh, the bird metaphor reach the last episode too, just in case that you have saved your self from watching it :3 |

| Can´t tell. How am I supposed to feel insulted because of a content! If the anime does something stupid, then the author is stupid, not me. I just can´t take it that personal. |

| SAO when Kirito broke free just like that from never-ending paralysis by Kayaba in game. Come on. |

| Gamers! is insulting to true gamers. Paints gamers as a bunch of virgin dweebs interested in playing together. WE ARE NORMAL PEOPLE interested in the game WE LIKE AND WANT, NOT playing together some random game. I gave that shit a 1/10 |

| -3D Kanojo: Real Girl was the worst romcom anime that i've ever seen in my life. The characters are terrible and the animation made things even worse. The level of cringiness is over the place. What's the worst of it? It will have a second season in 2019 LMAO. An anti-otaku show. -Gamers! is similar to 3D Kanojo but here is just an anti-gamer show. Also the animation is better but is still shit in everything else. -Darling in the FranXX. Those random metaphors are too pretentious. -Fairy Tail. The whole show insults my intelligence. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| bnha and fate stay night all 3 routes are so garbage that i feel insulted these were even animated |
| Idk about this.I'm so dumb that no anime can insult my inteliligence |
| I don't know exactly why but in many shows, they have the need to explain everything. When a character doesn't show his true intention after a misunderstood, someones says in hid mind "You did it because....,don't you?". Or they explain a power, an ability, a strategy, a purpose in the middle of fight... I get it! Don't always hold my hand! Now, I'm gonna repeat myself but I still believe Gurren Lagann insulted me the most. Like many battle shonens, It uses the "Never give up!" or "Believe in yourself!" message. Indeed, It's well intentioned, but the problem I have with it is the protagonists are kinda blessed by some divinity of luck. Chosen ones, legacies, power of friendship,...where is the point of hard-working if they have some ressources they make them already special? In TTGL, It goes further. The all universe is run by the Rule of Cool. Anyone making an awesome, cool or "badass" (god I hate that word) move will be rewarded by godlike powers. And the first antagonists, Beastmen, don't have this ability. That means they're screwed since the beginning. The chauvinist aspect is horrible too. Humans are the coolest. We deserve to lead all the Creation. We're definition of good but if anyone who stand in our way, they deserve to burn in hell forever,... And with a "prophet" like this jerkass of Kamina, It gives the message a such obnoxious taste. And finally, the message is too extrem for his good. I get it, going foward is better than standing in the same situation (sometimes), but here, anyone who doesn't follow this idea is viewed as a coward and an ennemy. Not only Beastmen, Genome or Anti-Spiral, but especially Rossiu. It's the only character to have some common sense, and who can bring real depth in the show. But instead, everytime he opens his mouth, someone throws something in his face. Plus, he mades tough choices for the good of his people like arresting Simon to calm down the population of finding a way to flee against such a powerfull opponent who is the Anti-Spiral, and sometimes, we need to back up to move foward more efficiently. But how the anime showed him in the end? It shows him he was wrong! It shows him like a badguy who wants to take control! It shows him he was so wrong the only redemption for him is to commit suicide. But no! It was denied too because he was such a pathetic loser! That means if we don't follow the "god of manliness", you deserve to live in shame and been bullied for the rest of your miserable live! I remembered saying in my head "F*ck you, Gurren Lagann! A big, large, hard f*ck you!" |
| All those anime which has NTR or fucking beta male or violent trashundre. |
| From recent ones I watched: Sakasama no Patema Island Shichisei no Subaru - I dropped it after the first episode. Getting a scholarship to study abroad and some more benefits as a reward for doing well in a video game is fantasizing a bit too much for me. |

HungryForQuality said: Fate/Stay Night UBW. Constantly alternates between light hearted slice of life antics to bullshit Shonen asspulls to "deep" philosophical conversations. Just because you're correct doesn't mean that you're right. My nomination goes to Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade. It's an excellent, moody, dark film with an intriguing storyline and realistic characters in a setting that yearns for more exploration in anime...but goddammit, they really bang that Red Riding Hood drum until your ears bleed. I GET IT. FUSE IS THE BIG BAD WOLF AND KEI IS LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD JESUS CHRIST I'M NOT FUCKING FIVE. 25NOVember said: jarring said: anime that tries to be smart, but is dumb instead. Stuff like Death Note, Classroom of the Elite, etc. monologues are the worst. Seriously DN is dumb for you? whats a smary show then? Death Note is a smart show that needed to be overexplained because its core audience (teenagers) are dumb. |
 This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi! I am the Arbiter of Absolute Truth, and here is my wisdom: "Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news. Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people. Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation. There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime. You should be watching Carole & Tuesday." |
| It's pretty damn rare, even among my most hated. Phantasy Star 2's borderline condescending moralizing, explaining, and whatnot in its early half was one such example. Princess Principal is another (enough with the whole "sipes are liars; did ya know that" "you're lying, aren't you" times infinity nonsense). FranXX's treatment of its characters, especially Zero Two, was pretty offensive, with how they go out of their way to just alter her personality on a whim, with no real natural transitions in her character. Smartphone...its mere existence is insulting on an artistic level. Hand Shakers is the epitome of both giving a fuck and failing, and not giving a fuck, to the point of constantly retconning its concept...and that's not even the most intellectually insulting thing it does. |

I liked it. Gave more powerful and epic feeling. Aside that.. thread answer in general is "no". I don't have such ego to consider having some sort of intelligence "level" that is possible to offend from. (let alone from fiction). That just sounds dumb. |

| TBH if I had to feel "insulted" every times something is "overly explained" I would spend many of my days feeling insulted. My point here is, that story/anime/manga/novel/whatever was not designed specially for YOU but for EVERYONE. Just because you don't need that level of explanation doesn't mean no one else needs it. They're not "insulting your intelligence" just by explaining things too much. Yes it can feel overly slow when it happens, but that doesn't mean it's "insulting" >-<. |

Having to sit through 5 episodes of filler with that squid guy, or that damn board game, was so boring to me. Though, Kurapika's spider arc was amazingly executed imo. |
