The Fullmetal Alchemist anime was the reason I stopped watching anime, so I'd probably say that was the worst. Pity since the manga was actually pretty damn cool, but I guess they thought making the anime shit was a better idea?

I hated, outright hated Macross and Macross Plus. I don't know why. I know they were both very popular and several people place the shows in their top 10 or 20 but I disliked them both immensely. Cyber City Oedo 808 and Soreyuke! Uchû senkan Yamamoto Yôko were two others I loathed.

Kodomo no jikan and Maria Holic.
Edit: And post-L Death note.

They were just so boring.

I also seem to see a lot of people claiming shows they didn't like were just objectively bad, e.g. FLCL.
If you're complaining that the storytelling of FLCL wasn't very clear, I'm sorry, but you don't get it.

Bleach, its just so boring and badly drawn, not to mention completely full of Deus Ex Machina moments.

Naruto: Shipudden, I liked most of the first series(minus all the filler and the part about Sasake growing a big ass pair of hands out of his back) but they managed to completely fuck everything up.

Neon Genesis Evangelion, the creator of this once said he can't understand the popularity of the characters since the are so unlikeable, well I for once sympathize, BTW the ending really didn't bother me just the characters.

I've never had an intensely negative experience with anime, as there isn't such a thing as a reality anime, though I've definitely seen plenty of mediocre stuff. I'd say the worst show that I completed all the way through was Code Geass, which to me felt like a soulless market product more often than not.

sorry for the double post but I didn't see this.
It is still one of my favorite anime series ever but I will say that it failed the Fullmetal Alchemist name.

Evangelion.

It started out alright, but the ending was just soo soo bad that it immediately moved the entire anime into the "worst show I've ever watched all the way through" category.

Apparently the movies fixed the ending of the series, but I couldn't be arsed to care at that point.
oh ya the tv ending is complete shit but i mean the studio was going under they had no funding or anyone working for them at the end they did what they could. the movie is a much better ending.

i haven't really watched all that much anime but the last 2 episodes of Evangelin were pretty much the worst thing i have ever seen

Elfin Lied and Hellsing first come to mind when you say cringeworthy.

Actually, most of them I find pretty stupid, but that doesn't mean it can't be entertaining.

Edit: Glad to see some hate for Death Note. I liked it but it was so bloody over hyped.

Evangelion:
I hate anime I don't understand. Despite watching the series and movies and then reading on wiki...I still don't understand Evangelion...as such, I consider it to be terrible. I realize that those who got some meaning out of this story love this particular anime and recommend it highly..so don't take my recommendation to seriously.
I'm with you, Eva sucks, but my reason is less deep, i pretty much hated the whole cast

Akira:
I've never been able to watch Akira in full...so that would be by worst anime by another measure...for all I know, it becomes amazing after the first hour or so, but I'll probably never know.
no, it doesn't, i sat through all of it, felt like a 6 hour movie, and not even a very interesting one

as for my list?

Zeta Gundam: the main character is a whinny self important little shit, hate him so much

Gundam Seed Destiny: now, i like Seed, so when i heard there was a part 2, i got on board -.- and i still donno how i got through the whole thing, again, the main character, and for more or less the same reason as Zeta

x.x all i can remember, i rented a lot of anime when we had a store for it, it closed a few years back, an forgot most the shit i saw

Fruits Basket makes me hit my head on tables, I hate the main character, I hate the vapid pricks that fill the universe in which this "thing" exists.

Onii-chan no koto nanka zenzen suki janain dakara ne
though I've never seen that series, I have heard from a variety of sources that it is a subtle take-that to overly ecchi shows... so I guess it's supposed to be terrible.
as for my worst, I really haven't seen anything really that bad.
I guess Devil May Cry, but even that was Watchable. maybe I should try Ikki Tousen, just so I have one awful series under my belt.
but then again I can sit through twilight just because I find it so entertaining because of it's awfulness.

For me it is a tie between:

Dragon Ball Z or pro wrestling as an anime with less of a plot and fights that last 3 or 4 episodes and are 70% people standing still screaming. Woooo!

and the lets scream Inuyasha, Kagome for like half an hour show.
Sure Dragonball Z started to fall into this after the Frieza saga, but Dragonball is a great anime and so is Dragonball Z. Sure they stand around pooping themselves for 5 episodes, but at least when something happened it was the most badass 15 minutes on TV.

Such a good series.

Saying that though Dragonball GT is probably the worst anime I have ever seen.

It has to be tied with Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, and post-first season Pokemon and Yugioh.

this is relevant to the topic at hand

I love the voice actor for this, he knew this made no sense.
I kinda like the ending, you can argue that shinji experienced the events of the final two episodes when the instrumentality occurred in End of Evangelion.

There was this one where these animal kids operated a giant mecha. That was just... a collection of all the worst ideas I could imagine without trying to produce a purposeful sabotage or a hackneyed cliche pastiche for a lampoon. In other words. It was a lot of fail. Oh but could turtle san really love rabbit chan, and look at that dance in the intro isn't this show kooky? Right guys? Right? Oh it's kooky alright. Kooky and bad all at once.
