Worst anime you have ever watched

[Zhadramekel]

I haven't actually watched this but Kampfer. Imagine the sexy jutsu concept from Naruto elongated into an entire anime series and that's basically it.

 

[Teh Ty]

Bleach.
LOVE the Manga, still follow it, but I can;t stand the anime of it.

 

[chiggerwood]

Queens Blade (need i say more)

Oh God help me this one!!! I think I got through half the first episode, and then there was a woman in a bunny suit squirting acid from her boobs. If you're still watching after that check yourself in to an asylum for you are clearly mad.

"This Ugly Yet Beautiful World" is a contender, and it ranks number one in "Most Misleading Title Contest"

Samurai Deeper (Kyo).. By far the worse ever Anime... Not even related to book, except the characters names. Fight scenes skimmed changed, and forwarded into weird gay stuff.

So far into this thread i was thinking "Wow, i haven't watched anything really bad. Lucky me!"
But then you came along and made me remember. I hate you now.

 

[chiggerwood]

Ikki Tousen, I've seen every season, and everytime I ask myself "Why?".
I have yet to find an answer.

Oh, and Gantz. It could have been so much more. Thank goodness hbi2k fixed that with the abridged series though.

In no uncertain terms LARGE, Plennnnnnnntiful, possibly underage BooBies, and after looking up ikki tousen I feel as if I have died a little inside

Anything with exceeding amounts of filler, so bleach basically. The actual meat of the story isn't bad but filler kills the quality completely.

Also I think the naruto anime is slow paced and boring :3

EDIT: Oh and prince of tennis, that is pure shit and so is the manga. I could only take it for so long :'(

I never understood how someone could make a show, let alone an ANIME about tennis.....


seriously, is there a huge fan-base for tennis in Japan or something?


OT: I cant remember the name, but it was a pretty standard "nerd gets transported to a new world and becomes awesome" anime, in the dub it had a few characters named after The Wizard of Oz, "Dorthy" and her pet "Toto", and she had a familiar or something that was a "Tin Man"

I wish I could remember the name, but it was horrible beyond belief.





.......then again, Cromarte High School [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SakigakeCromartieKoukou?from=Main.CromartieHighSchool] was a pretty weird anime in its own right.....

I Think you're talking about M("A"with some dots on top)R: Marchen awakens Romance...
That's what it sounds like anyway

 

[Shirokurou]

Devil May Cry

Yeah, they lobotomized Dante for it. (still better than Donte of the DmC reboot)

Also...
Onii-chan no koto nanka zenzen suki janain dakara ne

 

[Alphavillain]

I watched one series called "Kemeko DX". Wrong in so many ways. Whatever happened to the Japanese art of understatement and control?

Special mention for the most dissapointing show I've ever watched: Cowboy Bebop. When all of anime fandom promises you the moon in this show, and it turns out to be boring, shallow, and disconnected (though quite stylish), you really know what it's like to be dissapointed. It's honestly the most dissapointing thing I've ever watched, ever. It wasn't terrible, but it was far cry from the 'greatest anime of all time' like so many people tout it to be.

I hyped it to some friends of mine and they were left completely cold, so yeah :\ But that's because it's not really a story or anything like. There's no overarching plot tying things together, nothing really important going on that you should be caring about. It's just a bunch of down-on-their-luck strangers trying to get along in a world (solar system) gone to crap, set to some very cool tunes and done with some real style.

So it's one of those shows you have to approach with no expectations, I guess. Once you do, it can get very good - I still rewatch Ballad of Fallen Angels from time to time.

It's one of those love it or hate it series. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone who thought it was 'OK'. Pretty much the same with the rest of Shinichiro Watanabe-sensei's stuff.

Still got Kaze no Stigma in the 'to-watch' harddrive, is it just super-power-fight anime cliche?

RE Cowboy Bebop - I was actually under the impression that it was one of those 'everyone loves it' series, and that its detractors numbered in the negatives (i.e. anyone who thought it was bad got put in a loony ward). Outside of ignorant idiots who think all anime is bad, I'm still the only person I know of who didn't like the show.

RE Kaze no Stigma - Sort of, yes. It has a lot of super-power-fight stuff (and sometimes that involves grisly murders or broken hearts), but then the next minute it can be doing some stupid rom-com malarky with the two leads. Speaking of which, they're both really, really annoying. And sometimes it even buggers up the super-power-fight thing with a certain addition to the cast about halfway through the series. Best description I can think of is to imagine an 80% less likable and charming Full Metal Panic! with magic instead of mechs and if Sousuke was chanelling Ryoji Kaji via Edward Elric.

I don't remember the name but it involves a Giant robot coming out of this guy's forehead

 

[lord.jeff]

Apocalypse Zero, Doomed Metropolis, ans Miyuki-chan in Wonderland are the worst I can think of right now.

 

[Veldel]

the English dub of Ghost Stories


they rewrote the entire story and made it just retarded

That sounds like Fooly Cooly and that happens to be one of my favorites.

 

[Eternal_24]

Bleach after the third arc.

Not really bad in any way, but I personally did find Hellsing to be rather boring and uninteresting.

The original 13 episode series was TERRIBLE it kinda went off into its own retarded subplot and then finished the series off in a complete WTF moment. The OVA reboot were much much better.

You forget. the first series has one saving grace. (two if you count the english dub cast)

It's sound track.

It's quite possible the best sound track in existence.

And the reason it had to go off in it's own direction is because the project was having it's funding cut and I don't think Kato had gotten past his sixth novel at that point.

I still really liked that series. Despite it's odd ending and pretty bad animation. I think I prefer it to the OVA's. Alucards character is probably cooler in that than his is in the OVA's. It also doesn't have the annoying bursts of abstract humour that the manga series was prone to.

That's one thing I never got about some animes. They could be trying to be as serious as possible. Then they'd all suddenly shrink in size and start wiggling around like worms on acid, making daft noises and over exaggerating everything.

I think the OVA would have benefited from dropping that. Or just shoving them at the end of the episode like the first series did.

/agreed I find myself mentally editing out those shots and trying to see how you could stitch the show together without them. And for the love of all that's watchable, lose the cartoon gun "soul" dream sequences...

ikki tousen

Never have I seen anything so incredibly disrespectful to it's source material. It is beyond words.

The two Macross Movies.

Nope, they won't.

That and Weißkreuz. Wow, what a pile of shit!
