Bad anime : The animation, the writing, and just plain out bad.

Wait, what? I thought LoveCom was great and it had a great female protagonist who didn't succurab to the previous stereotypes. Can I hear your opinion toward this.
 
Not that many? I can name a huge load

=p Kazuki, Victor, Tokiko, Captain Bravo, Papillon(who is probably the most memorable character in the whole dang series. xD), the workers at the burger joint, Shosei, Sekima, and Kouji.

For a ten volume manga I think it gave the characters more than enough.
 
I put up with all 26 episodes of Rosario+Vampire, but it was far from being true to the manga. Sure the first season had some plot, but the second season (titled CAPU2 ) was nothing more but panty shots and fanservice galore, and the plot was just stupid.

Queen's Blade was nothing more than hentai disguised as an anime. Nevermind the fact that the main character runs around practically naked in the series, but the plot is terrible at best. What ever happened to decency?
 
I can't believe I stayed up 3 nights in a row just to watch that whole series. I feel like a durabass.

The plot was convoluted and boring as hell.

No comedy relief (unless you get a kick out of Quatre's whining)

One dimensional characters (I could only count one that had a different personality that wasn't muddled with philosophical crap to be spewed out with every sentence of dialogue spoken

"Total pacifism" is overused so much that you WANT to go to war.

Its the first time I rooted for the bad guys, because the main five were unbeatable and just annoying.

Too many evil organizations kept popping up out of no where (what the hell was up with white fang?)

Domone could kick Wu-Fei's ass.

What is the war being fought over again? I feel that plot lost all meaning or exposure by the time Episode 10 rolled around.
 
Any other adaptation and people would be thrilled to see a worthy representation of the source material. But noooooo...

I actually can't remeraber the last series (that hasn't already been mentioned) that made me wish for those hours of my life back once it was over. I'm sure I'll think of one if I wait long enough, though.
 
Dewey and Holland aren't royalty. The 'sacrificial king' is from a real life book called "The Golden Bough". Both Holland and Dewey have both read the book, and Dewey has become obsessed with becoming said 'sacrificial king'. I haven't read the book myself, but the king was apparently a dying and reviving god, married to a goddess of the Earth, and it was a ritual for the king to be killed by his successor. Thus, Dewey's entire minRABet is explained. He saw himself and Holland as the 'Princes' to the 'sacrificial king and queen', their parents. Part of his resentment of Holland comes from not only becoming a sacrificial king by his birth killing their mother, but also by becoming as he sees it, a failure. In short, the guy's nuts.

As for the fact that they are brothers never coming up until later, why not? It's not important, so no one ever mentions it. Also, what's to say that the other meraber's of the Gekko didn't already know? The audience stays in the dark, just like Renton, and thus we don't learn about these things until around the same time he does. They both hate each other, so why would they even bring up the fact that they're related?

Renton and Eureka's romance isn't for everyone. I've noticed that it's very polarizing. I loved it, myself. Yes, it was corny, but in that good-old fairytale way.

The Coralians? I'll have to get back to you on that. I haven't seen the earlier episodes in a while. Was there any actual evidence that they were attacking unprovoked? The series deals a lot with myths and fairytales, although it isn't very obvious off the bat.
 
I really think the romance is the absolute worst part, even if the rest of the plot is all over the place. The romance seems like something written by a four year old girl.

And the show wasn't popular, hence it being death slotted by Adult Swim.
 
Divergence Eve.

For an anime that seemed to have potential for a really interesting story, it sure did fall part into a jurabled blob of cliches.

And, oh yeah....bouncy bouncy.
 
I'm not sure what everyone's stance on it is, but I didn't like the Hellsing TV series at all. I know it's like the original FMA series in that it follows a different story route from its manga counterpart. However does that mean it also has to wipe out the humor? The cool thing about Hellsing is that it was epic but also didn't take itself too seriously, something that aside from the ending eyecatchers/previews seems lost in the series. Thank goodness for the Hellsing Ultimate OAVs.

As for real crap anime, Apocalypse Zero. Essentially take Fist of the North Star & Guyver, add toilet humor & more gruesome, sometimes guro-like, violence and you got this garbage. It's one of those anime/manga that is just there for pure shock value, nothing else.
 
The general reaction to the OVA's is "This is so much cooler." Also, FMA had a better director. And didn't go into non-manga territory as fast.
