Worst Anime ever?

[Ohten]

Anything grunted out by 4Kids, Naruto, and Dragonball Z/GT.

 

[Legion]

All of them

Care to give a reason?

If your going after my spelling then I can see that your reall running out of things to throw because as I often say (not here) the use of the whole "your spelling is crap" manuvre is now just as widely used as "your mother" and I'm afraid that in trying to show superior intelligence by having a basic knowledge of grammer you have shot yourself in the foot by using that as your main point. Just for the record I don't really care about my spelling, never have and probably never will, if you can understand what I'm typing/writing it's all fine so I'm not really paying attension to it as I type and I don't look over it which you might do on your next reply to ensure I don't come after you for fucking up your own argument.

It has nothing to do with intelligence, it's to do with effort.

If you can't take the time to make sure your writing makes sense and is ok to read then why the fuck should we take the time to read it?

It's like saying somebody turning you down for a job is "grasping straws" if they do so because you turned up for the interview in a tracksuit. It's not to do with looking smart, it's to do with showing you can put the effort in to make yourself look presentable.

 

[Captain Bobbossa]

All of it.

You'll go far here. /sarcasm

Your post is neither cool nor clever, now be on your way.

You go on forums to be cool? thats sad.
No I wasn't trying to be cool or clever I was stating my oppinion and answering the question which I belive is the POINT of a forum not to gain popularity which to behonest if your trying to do... I don't belive your going to get very far in life with.

He was also just stating his opinion, the point of forums.
As am I

No he wasn't he was slagging me of and you are correcting me, neither of which is giving an oppinion.

If it was an oppinion it would have been "ithink you comment is...." and "i think he was giving his oppionion..."

Although you are halve right as they are supposed to be used for discussions aswell which I think this now qualifies for.

So why is it bad?

It's predictable as hell

I swear if you can honestly predict everything that is happening in the manga and anime, then nothing will be unpredictable for you. Was it predictable that Pain

Spoiler

Blew Up Konoha?

Or when Itachi

Spoiler

Was forced to annihilate his own clan at the behest of his village?

Or when

Spoiler

Sasuke Joined Akatsuki?

Or when

Spoiler

Kabuto absorbed Orochimaru's corpse?

And I can actually keep going. If you are going to tell me that all of those were predictable, then a picture paints a thousand words

Spoiler: spoiler: Click for revelation

there are far too many episodes with no sign of stopping even though the show and manga both hit their peak long ago (same with Bleach)

There are hardly too many episodes, most of what has happened arc wise had to happen, it's not like other anime when if things were cut out everything would still make sense. I've been hearing that Bleach is suffering for copypasta syndrome as of late, if you want you can have that, I only watch the anime. But Naruto hasn't really had two arcs that are really similar. If you compare it with, say, Tenjho Tenge where Oh! Great doesn't really know what he's doing any more, so it's dragging on, Kishimoto seems to have a grand plan with the entire story, as more revelations come and certain motives are changed. It's far from it's peak in my opinion.

and the character design is meh at best.

I think the character design is pretty good, but I also think that he has far far too many characters in one series, and doesn't know what to do with them. But each to his own.

The story is boring and derails itself often to go on a tangent but never returns to the original pre-derailment plot (see: Naruto wanting to be Hokage, but that arc turned into a rescue and the idea never returned)

That was never an arc, it was a character motive. The fact remains that he is giving characters underlying motives that change over time, the rescue of his friend overrode his desire to be Hokage at the time. Besides that I can't see the plot actually derailing, it just changes over time. As for boring, see above.

the villains are all terrible and/or cliché to hell

The only truly cliche villain they had was orochimaru, he wanted power for no reason. Right now this could also be applied to Kisame if you wish, but we know nothing about him as of late. Itachi is an interesting villain, and so was Pain to a degree (you could say he was half and half between cliche and interesting) and

Spoiler

Right now, Sasuke as a villain is irritating, but far from cliche, and that is mainly because he is almost without motive in a sense

Besides this, , and the characters who are actually interesting are fairly quickly written out or killed. Also, plot holes

Hmmm. Written out? I guess that's subjective in a sense because it depends on who you find interesting. I like the original rookies because they were entertaining, but they weren't interesting in the sense that I know everything about them.

Spoiler

Kakashi is another one who is interesting, and hasn't been written out or killed yet. There are others also.

As for plot holes, I like hearing about those actually, could you name some please?

Honestly, it's turned into another DBZ where fights last forever just because the creators are out of any original thoughts whatsoever, so they have to stall with random flashbacks and shit. "I'm almost dead! But wait. I have another power! So do you? Fuck. Guess this shit's going for three more episodes."

Bah, that's nonsense. Bleach is more like DBZ than Naruto is, both authors have named DBZ as one of their influences, but Bleach Reeks of it through it's scale of fighting. From the flight to the abilities, they are being purposely held back for no reason at times. Naruto I disagree with.

3)Well fine All of it apart from ... I don't know "ghost in the shell"? (I don't really care I just hate anime and mabye the reason I'm acctually posting on this thread is because I acctually had nothing better to do other than piss off fan boys/girls)

And just like that, you explained why this started. The fact is, I knew this, and so did you.

Now what you just did there is what we call trolling [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_troll], thus making you a troll. These forums don't like trolling. Trolling gets you banned. If you refrain from such things, you'll find this to be a decent place with interesting topics of conversation. If not, you'll get banned. Simple.

Talking about the rest of it is pointless because Machines Are Us explained it to you.

I'm bad with anime names, so I'm just gonna say ALL old animes (80-90) that have notoriously awful dubbing (doesn't matter what language) and very very VERY HORRID fight scenes. I'll leave it to the geeks to name them if indeed there are any names to be mentioned.

To their credit, the old ones were usually MassacredMacekred [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Macekre] when dubbed into a language other than Japanese.

Thankfully though, I only watch anime I like, so I haven't seen "the worst". Oh, and Queen's Blade is supposed to be the breast anime about boobs that involves clothing malfunction and battle damage out there. Expecting any more from it is like... like... Ah screw it, I've run out of similes!

 

[SecretTacoNinja]

All of them

Have you watched every single anime?

I'm guessing not...

 

[Gamer137]

Eiken.

It's just ridiculous.

I'm sure that a show based on fan service, but who honetly thinks that's attractive? It's just childish. I did not think it was possible to fail at the easiest selling point in marketing history.

 

[AmrasCalmacil]

Eiken.

It's just ridiculous.

OH GOD, THEY'RE COMING TOWARDS ME!
I'm sure that somehow this could be used to make sure no Japanese person could legally express themselves creatively.

Naruto, because It's a bad anime that's actually popular.

I was expecting to see this somewhere here. I can only think of three possible reasons for Naruto-hate.

1) It's popular and you want to be different.
2) The filler episodes irrtated you. (Someone clever would skip them)
3) It's too cheesey/happy-go-lucky, in which case, Shippuden is better, much more mature, or a step up from that, read the manga, way way darker.

You forgot that it's about a Ninja who wears bright yellow and has permanent marker on his face.

And who never ambushes or assassinates anyone, or even disguises himself as a peasant and spies on people... As far as I know. And I know very little, so feel free to correct me.

Mabye I am trolling, but your just as bad considering your "feeding the troll". Sometimes it's nice to here a "controversial" oppionion/idea, seen as controversy is something that progresses the human race in it's advance because thinking outside of the box is what gets things done.

My comments are hardly "irrelivant" seen as they post is about what anime you don't like. I just happen to hate all of it (that is acctually a lie someone a while ago in this thread reminded me about yu gi-oh which i do like (the old stuff) but that's brcause i used to play it and it grew on me).

The same goes for "off-topic" seen as both irrelivant and off-topic mean the same thing (in this instance)

And let me see... oh yes, "inflammatory". Well if your expected to raise emotions in your disscusions and when giving your oppinion then this would be a very grey world. But it's not people say things that people both agree with and disagree with all the time that's the point of free speach etc.
To be honest I believe that the fault there lies with the fanboys who get worked up so much... for no good reason.

And it's not like I said "all anime is shit" I gave my oppioion saything that I don't like it, is that such a bad thing? Or has some new global law come into order where if you do not worship Anime then you have committed treason and shall be cast out (somehow).

Glad you read it.

Sometimes it's nice to here a "controversial" oppionion/idea, seen as controversy is something that progresses the human race in it's advance because thinking outside of the box is what gets things done.

It's controversial for no reason. You're simply telling that all of anime is the worst anime ever, which not only contradicts itself, but you also contradict it by saying you like Yu-Gi-Oh and Ghost In The Shell, which you explain soon.

My comments are hardly "irrelivant" seen as they post is about what anime you don't like. I just happen to hate all of it (that is acctually a lie someone a while ago in this thread reminded me about yu gi-oh which i do like (the old stuff) but that's brcause i used to play it and it grew on me).

And there's the contradiction. As for the first part, your first post was irrelevant to the question, and was used to raise emotions from 'fanboys and fangirls' which you admitted and is trolling.

The same goes for "off-topic" seen as both irrelivant and off-topic mean the same thing (in this instance)

If you are trying to tell me that even in this instance irrelevant and off-topic mean the same thing, you are still wrong. Your post is both on topic yet still pretty much irrelevant.

And let me see... oh yes, "inflammatory". Well if your expected to raise emotions in your disscusions and when giving your oppinion then this would be a very grey world. But it's not people say things that people both agree with and disagree with all the time that's the point of free speach etc.

This is not the free world. This is The Escapist. Your opinions are valued and accepted, but if they do not abide by the rules of the site then you will be banned or disciplined. That is how it is. No one is asking you to agree with everything we say, we ask that you not only stay on topic and answer the question asked, but to answer it with relavance. 'Everything because...' would have been a good start, but still wrong.

To be honest I believe that the fault there lies with the fanboys who get worked up so much... for no good reason.

turning it around onto the 'fanboys' doesn't make it right either, and it's actually been people who aren't even big fans of anime that have told you that you are wrong. And if your excuse was valid, trolling wouldn't exist, it would be the fault of those who respond. But responses wouldn't be possible without initial posts trying to cause strife.

And it's not like I said "all anime is shit"

All of it.

I gave my oppioion saything that I don't like it, is that such a bad thing?

No one is asking if you like or dislike anime, the question is aimed at people who like anime. If you are saying you don't like it for the sake of it, it's irrelevant, go post that in a post titled 'do you like anime?'. If you are saying it to 'piss off fanboys' then you are trolling, and this isn't wanted.

Or has some new global law come into order where if you do not worship Anime then you have committed treason and shall be cast out (somehow).

Once again, this isn't the world, this is the Escapist. You are in a thread that is aimed at people who don't like anime, and you are initially trolling then attempting to justify your trolling. If this was anywhere but the escapist you would still be wrong. If you don't like anime, then don't post something that even other trolls wouldn't post.


...Oh wait.

All of them

Then this is aimed at both of you. Enjoy your stay here.

 

[Captain Bobbossa]

Sorry for not quoting a anything from your last post but i felt that all would be to much and I don't know how to select specific parts, anyway...

I take it you didn't pick up on the sarcasm, thought (unlike you) that I wouldn't need to point it out so obviously. Evedentally this audience isn't as intelligent as I estimated. Anyway I don't like Ghost in the Shell, that was the sarcastic part. And I never liked Yu Gi-Oh untill i played the TCG and even then I still found it as frustrating in the ways that all Anime shows I've watched are. Eg. anoyingly short episodes due to the fact that they spend the first massive chunk at the start telling you what happened in the last one (DBZ is the worst cullprut for this as they also spend halve the time telling you what will happen in the next one aswell!). Also usually in anime series's I find that they do far to much talking about APSOILUTALY BUGGER ALL and hyping up a fight to be way more than it acctually is the result being they spend an entire episode (or 10) talking about the fight it acctually happens at which point they talk through most of the fight anyway. Everyone is also far to emotional about everything!

"Oh no he got hit in the face, but I love him, but I'm not sure if I do because I love this other guy but he loves this other girl and oh my god I don't know what I'll do mabye I'll leave the group (that is never explained how they all met and there is ALWAYS a group or some miserable **** with probably a stupidly big sword walking about because he has no friends because he did something very bad but it is never explained what anyway back to what I was saying) but I need to spend 3 episodes thinking about it!!!!" BTW that's not any specific show that is just a summary of an example of about what would happen in most of a season.

No the post is not irrelivant because the subject is Bad Anime effectivly, I think it is all bad (apart from Yu Gi-Oh (older stuff) and even then I get bored of it pretty quickly) so therfor it is relivant. And irrelivance would be off-topic so they mean the same here and if not well same argument because it's not off-topic, (just to be clear ill explain it again) because the topic is about bad anime effectively and I hate all anime (apart from Yu Gi-Oh (older stuff) and even then I get bored of it pretty quickly) so therefor it is "on-topic" (or something).

If your not a fanboy then why are you still keeping this discussion with me going, a non-fanboy would never have even replied. So your either a fan-boy, stubborn or like me your tired from a busy week and are being lazy today so have got nothing better to do.

No one is asking if i like anime [correct] but then they are asking what anime I think is the worst. Now I'm pretty sure I cleened this up a few comments ago but incase it wasn't clear enough for you here...


I think all anime other than Yu Gi-Oh is the worst.


Is that a "relivant" answer yet? Is that clear enough?


Well last time I checked the world doesn't exist within the Escapist, The Escapist exists inside (or on) the world. So I think it should be subject to the world and I should be allowed to say what I wish (within reason) yet live alongside the escapist rules and as far as I can see yes I may have had the intension to annoy a certain group but the comments I have been leaving are still relivant, on topic and abiding by the rules. Most trollers I think come on and they post some insulting shite of low level intelligence and normally theres not much point to it.

So far I (at least I don't think I did we have been doing this for hours) havn't tryed to insult anyone, ive told you all I don't like anime, mabye in a blunt way but none the less.

Yes I did think this would start of the fanboys/girls and It has pressuming you aren't of the other 2 options but the comment itself (all of it) as far as I can see abbides by the rules so call me a troll if you wish either way I gain satisfaction wether you comment, don't comment or get me banned.

*That picture with the insane boobage*

Imagine if that anime was in 3-D.

Also, I saw Bobobo in a hotel in Lanzarote. It was AWFUL.

But I attempted to watch it for every remaining night of the holiday.

 

[A random person]

There's probably worse out there that I don't know of, but Eiken is just creepy. The best thing to come out of it was some AMV Hell 4 segments.

"Today we salute you, Mr. Push-Up Bra Inventor!"

P.S what the hell did neutral Drow acctually mean?

I meant that, since you were being serious and not just posturing, "All of it" as a response to the question of "What is the worst anime ever" is objectively wrong, since there is always a difference in quality between any two given anime. The existence of most of Hayao Miyazaki's work along with the existence of trash like Night Shift Nurses shows that there is a vast gulf between good anime and crap, and therefore claiming that every anime is the worst ever is false.

And it's not like I said "all anime is shit" I gave my oppioion saything that I don't like it, is that such a bad thing?

By answering "all of it" to the question "what is the worst anime ever," yes, you were in fact saying all anime is shit. Unless you're of the opinion that all anime is of the same high quality, which would be less inflammatory, but equally wrong.

Yes I did think this would start of the fanboys/girls and It has pressuming you aren't of the other 2 options but the comment itself (all of it) as far as I can see abbides by the rules so call me a troll if you wish either way I gain satisfaction wether you comment, don't comment or get me banned.

In other words, you deliberately phrased something in a way that you knew would annoy other people, because provoking their reactions gives you satisfaction. Yes, I believe I will call you a troll.

Well good for you

But I didn't ask WHY you said whatever you said, asked WHAT you meant/said because it didn't make any sence at all to me.

And once again I didn''t say all anime is shit (would it make you happy if I did because by the sounds of things you all want simple minded thick headed "your mother" comments from me).

And back to the first thing you said in that comment it still doesn't make any sence.

I was hoping it was obvious when I began my explanation with "I meant that..."

Unless you're referring to my first post (importers being a buffer against Sturgeon's Law), which I thought was pretty straightforward, but I might be wrong.
