| Evil or Live. I normally avoid anime with dumb premises (And I mean "dumb" in a bad way) but this was too absurd for me to avoid, so I wanted to watch it just to kind of enjoy it ironically. I laughed at the unintentional comedy, but the comedy that was supposed to be funny was painfully the opposite. The animation is abysmal, the lip syncing is some of the worst I've ever seen, and the characters all suck. |
jal90 said: EndlessMaria said: Would you mind explaining your thoughts and reasoning? Well, edgy as a negative term means trying to appear more adult or more mature with tactics that appear juvenile and try to generate a shock effect in the viewer. I see none of that intent in Midori. Midori from the beginning is aesthetically ugly, unpleasant, and entirely defined by the intent of causing an unpleasant feeling in the viewer. There is no pretension to appear more mature or cooler, it's just ugly and nasty and it tries to appear as such to the viewer, like gore movies do. Ah, I think I am beginning to understand what edgy means now. Thank you for enlightening me! I'm almost 30 and not very social so a lot of these newer terms slip by me if i'm not paying attention xD I think "edgy" is kinda similar to what used to be called "grimdark" |

| Well, I've watched Odin: Starlight Mutiny, Inferno Cop, and one of the films by that wacky Japanese, Happy science/religion cult for laughs. Odin actually has some pretty awesome music but was pretty terrible in terms of everything else, inferno Cop was pretty hilarious, and Laws of Eternity was just....strange. |

OneNaughtyBear said: Gyo. It has a score of 5.57 right now, and around the time I watched it I'm pretty sure it had a score in the low-mid 6 range which just goes to show that the score has gotten progressively worse. It's definitely the worst anime I've ever seen and even fapping would be a better use of time than watching it Who says fapping is a bad use of time? |

DiverseUse said: EndlessMaria said: The Monogatari series is highly regarded yet I didn't enjoy it either. I watched a few of the seasons with my boyfriend at the time since he was really into it, but I didn't care for it. I just didn't really like any of the characters lol. I felt the same way about Code Geass. A friend of mine warned me that it was one of the worst anime she'd ever seen, so when I saw that it's one of the most highly rated shows here on MAL, I got so curious I had to watch it. And damn, I hated it. It fell into that fatal zone where a show is too entertaining to drop but so stupid it makes me want to headdesk all the time. I even ended up watching the second season, which was even worse than the first. I don't see how anyone could say that Code Geass is "terrible." I mean, I suppose I could try and see somebody thinking its overrated or mediocre even though I definitely don't feel that way but how can you say its terrible? |

| I guess Hellsing for me kind of falls into this category given that the anime felt like it was mostly just edgy for the sake of being edgy by showing obscene amounts of blood and gore. The story wasn't really all that well written, I liked it decent enough, but I wouldn't want to watch Hellsing go on for several seasons. |

| Holy Knight was so bad it felt like a parody, so I had pretty good time. I watched Vampire Holmes with similar motives, but it turned out to be just extremely bad rather than entertaining. |

I am not explaining myself very well either but basically I think "edgy" is more of an attitude towards the audience, like a pose, that I just don't find in Midori. But maybe I'm not getting the definition right, it just doesn't feel appropriate to me personally. |
| I had a pretty good idea that Iya na Kao sare nagara Opantsu Misete Moraitai was going to be trashy before I started watching it. I wasn't disappointed. As far as anime that others rate favorably but didn't work for me, top of the heap is Teasing Master Takagi-san, which I couldn't finish because it was too painful to watch. Others I didn't care for on the whole include B-Gata H-Kei, FLCL, and Shuffle! (but I was able to finish all of those). |
A møøse once bit my sister... |
| Even though I don't believe in spending a second watching something I don't like I still forced myself to finish Mahoutsukai no Yome. That show had some great world-building and always seemed like it was on the cusp of getting better. But then it just never did. |

| In Another World With My Smartphone. I had to see what all the commotion was about, and pretty much got what I expected. I've done this with so many Anime, but mainly with the isekai Genre. At least those Isekai anime albeit shitty it's still enjoyable but In Another World With My Smartphone was just mediocre and a snoozefest |
 It’s okay to look back at the past, just don’t stare too long |
| I watched Mayoiga fully knowing it was hot garbage, and I got more enjoyment in watching that trainwreck than I did with just an average anime. watching so bad it's good anime > watching mediocre anime |

| "Well, she's flatter than a pancake" -Mimi Alpacas "Woof" -Tobiichi Origami "Are you trying to turn the dormitory into a strip club!?! -Atena Saotome |
| Diabolik Lovers. It looked terrible, and got bad reviews. But it was short so I figured, what the hell... I highly regret it to this day |

| Oreimo, this constant violent tsundere bullshit in the anime is ridiculous, this coming from somebody who has a younger sister. I'd have definitely kicked her arse by now. |
| School Days Killing Bites both were fucking terrible |

| Much of my bottom list: Pupa, Conception, Hametsu no Mars, Tenshi no Drop, Hand Shakers, Goblin Slayer, Ragnastrike Angels, Sleeping with Hinako, Ore ga Suki nano wa Imouto dakedo Imouto ja Nai. List is, more or less, in ascending order of quality. |
| Some titles from me: Salaryman Kintarou - a demonstration of everything wrong with seinen also a horrible production. Youma Shuranosuke Zanmaken: Shikamamon no Otoko Hidan no Aria Arad Senki: Slap Up Party - actually a korean low budget production but released by Gonzo (before it went for bankruptcy).

| Does Eromanga Sensei Count? Besides that, I'd say SAO. There were just far too many references to it for me to ignore it so I got a tall glass of Daniels and got it over with. Apart from the alfeim arc it wasn't too bad. |
It's not like I like anime or anything. |
| Brain Powerd. I loved the concept and the design, but the script was wack, as in the things the characters said and their reactions to some stuff felt like a drug trip sometimes... |

| School Days Akame Ga Kill Butlers: Chitose Momotose Monogatari Saredo Tsumibito wa Ryuu to Odoru Basically the animes that I gave a negative score |
| Pupa lol and I've actually seen it twice now because I got some of my friends to watch it. It really is funny just how bad it is. but it's nice that it's only like 30 minutes long in its entirety. |
| I watched Higurashi out of actual morbid curiosity, I wanted to see the apparently infamous gore scenes but I dropped it three episodes in just because of how hilariously bad it was. Maybe I haven't seen enough to "get it" but this is one of the highly rated anime on this site that I just don't understand the praise for at all. A lot of the positive reviews just seem to really overrate the show for its shock value. |
| I'm pretty sure that SAO is recognized as a bad anime. So yeah that one. Now is one of my favorite anime tho lmao |

| If it counts as bad, then Darling in the FranXX and Eromanga-sensei. DitF - was actually pretty decent until last 7-8 episodes came, and then I understood all the hate. Eromanga-sensei - I have no problem with incest and underaged characters, it had some funny moments, but except that few funny moments, everything else was just poor. Shame that the two best girls had the least of screen time. I don't think of it as a horrible show, just a poor one. |
| I watch/read lots of bottom-of-the-barrel trash in the hopes of finding something funny, bizarre or shocking. I guess that's why I'm such a stable individual. |

| surprised at all of the monogatari posts |
EndlessMaria said: I just watched Shoujo Tsubaki Midori, and just what the fuck lol. I honestly don't like the term "edgy" as it gets thrown around way too much, however this anime was just fucking 40 minutes of edgy smut lmao. It was really just a terrible anime since it has like nearly zero animation and was basically a slideshow with sounds and voices seemingly slapped on as an after thought, and the writing was barely a tangible thing; however it was such a messed up train wreck that I found myself drawn to watch it all the way though just to experience the depths of depravity that are rarely ventured. I considered writing a review for it but I wont bother so this thread will do. What anime have you folks watched out of morbid curiosity despite being put off by various aspects of the show? Domestic Girlfriend is the greatest dumpster fire/car crash I've ever seen... and damn when there's a big dumpster fire/car crash like this, it's really hard to not try to look at it |

| Keijo Shingeki! Kyojin Chuugakkou Pop team epic - didn't finish it though Yeah and my regret will haunt me for the foreseeable future because of it. |
 |
| Me and my friends thought it would be hilarious to watch boku no pico when we were 12 the urban legend itself |
 |
| definitely Mars of Destruction. And well it didnt disappoint. Or rather yes it did. Its just bad. Sort of Tokyo Ghoul Re, but I dropped that at some point. Its funny though how many people here comment with good or very good (going by MAL) anime and try to be edgy with it. |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |

EndlessMaria said: mid It was really just a terrible anime since it has like nearly zero animation and was basically a slideshow with sounds and voices seemingly slapped on as an after thought Not that I'm defending it's content because it's really hard to get through, but the fact that Shoujo Tsubaki Midori even exists is kind of incredible. Hiroshi Harada drew the entire thing by himself over many years with 0 sponsors. The animation is NOT terrible when you look at it in that light. |
