What was the first anime you unequivocally found to be terrible? The very first.

Either Dears or Chobits. Both were consistently utter garbage at every moment.
>>
I'm autistic in a sense that I like to finish a show if I started it. Even if I don't like it too much.

There was one show I just couldn't finish, it was a double cour and I got to around episode 14 before I just had to stop. I don't even remember the full name, it was like something Airantou. Guy gets stuck on an all girl island.
>>
>>140577611
I want to say Bludgeoning Anegel Dokuro chan.
>>
>>140580351
Don't compare Chobits to Dears, I will fucking fight you. Chobits at least explores different characters reactions to the idea of being with a persocom.
>>
>>140577611
I hadn't watched enough anime to develop a sense of quality when I watched elfen. I could tell that it wasn't great, but I still found it to be emotionally engaging.

The first anime I unequivocally found to be garbage was Dragonaut the Resonance.
>>
Probably Love Hina. But I was still in my "I've got to finish every show I start" phase of anime watching, so I sat through the whole thing. I've hated Yui Horie ever since.
>>
Green Green TV.

Retrospectively speaking, there's been several series before that one that seemed... off to me. But since I was new to anime, everything just seemed awesome to me, and if it didn't it was some fault of my own.

Green Green TV changed that. It was THE show that made me aware of how much garbage this industry contains.
>>
I saw an episode of MAR back on Toonami and thought it was awful.

I liked elfen lied unironically when I watched it for the first time. Great OP and OST. I'd never watch it again though.

Nagasarete Airantou? For me, Ayane was the only good part of that show. Everything else was garbage.

Chobits was a deep and thought provoking series that started off with a veil of innocence and then transitioned towards the exploration of the social rammifications of artificial intelligence.

How could you hate it?

There's just too many shows that succeeded in what it failed to accomplish with its juxtaposition.

Literally this. Holy shit, it was soo bad, but I realised this only right after I finished all eps and an ova.

I guess the positive thing about Elfen Lied was it lead me to better things like Genocyber and Amon Apocalypse of Devilman.

It took until I was an adult for that thing to get proper subtitles too.
>>
>>140580814
Same here, I wouldn't want to rewatch the thing, though, because I most likely would hate it then.

Kurokami or some shit. Like, I very rarely drop shit and that was just beyond horrible.

Tsuyokiss.

I don't remember why I hate it though.

>>140577611
Elfen Lied was so full of itself. Jesus Christ what a piece of shit.
>>
>>140581608
Finished it lately, it was pretty shit but at the same time somehow captivating. It just feels so shallow and lazy at many points but then has some decent ideas in there that ultimately turn out to be the same lazy boring shit as before.
>>
>>140577611
Angel Beats.

I think I dropped it around the fourth or fifth episode. I thought most of the characters were boring, and when it went into the backstory of the girl who played the guitar, I didn't feel anything and figured I wouldn't for the remainder of the series.

I have seen a lot of anime, and there are shows that I dislike or shows
That I have certain problems with. But i am also very patient. I don't pay much attention to them and just forget about those shows as time goes on. Ef a tale of memories is the only show I flat out despise. I find so many things wrong with it and just about everthing about this show
Rubs me the wrong way. I regret watching it, and I feel sick, every time i think about it.

>>140577611
Here is how I watched elfen lied:
I got some mates together, we bought a lot of alcohol and marathoned elfen lied. We had so much fun.
>>
I wouldn't say that I considered it garbage, but Love Hina was the first series that I finished, then regretted spending time on. Just didn't feel worth all the investment for how little shit actually happened
>>
>>140577611
Like real terrible. Like pissing me off hard it is so terrible?
So far i have found only one, even though i disliked many. And avoided a lot more because i knew it would be terrible.
But the only one i found to be actually rage inducingly terrible is SnK.

>>140580780
>>140580887
You are wrong, it actually explored deeper themes than you give it credit for with a Clamp veneer.

It explored utilising the Persocom to replace a partner, to replace family, a child,and to marry.

Hideki himself stops pondering so much as to whether Chii is an object or not by the end of the series.

Watched the first 15 episodes and dropped it after that.

None of the characters were interesting and the fights were okay for their time.
