But I would have to agree with above poster that Super Milk Chan is the absolute worst animation/cartoon/anime (whatever you want to call it) that is out there. Not only do I NOT get what the hecks even going on, I just don't care for the look of the animation.

It basically does the same thing as Aqua Teen Hunger Force, but people don't talk trash about that.

I hate Nintendo for their unscrupulous business practices,(want to carry our product? Then you can't carry anyone else's!) the residules of which eventually forced Sega out of the hardware business, and for trying to use the US Congress to step on their competition, emboldening one Sen. Joseph R. Lieberman to begin his video game witch hunt, which then bled into other media.
-------------------------------------------
I couldnt disagree more.....and about the whole G Gundam thing i liked it....but everyone has there own opinion as a matter of fact thats the only Gundam i have ever liked...lol


So you couldn't disagree more with confirmed fact regarding Nintendo's business practices, and then you don't even give any reasons for your disagreement. Judging by your other posts, you weren't even born when a lot of this was going down, the Nintendo you know is a completely different company.

Well Seed I find boring with Chracters that aren't as interesting compared to wing same with G Gundam only it has more melodrama than it should have for a show with the premise of world fighting should have.


You honestly found Wing's characters more interesting that SEED & G? Honestly, I regard Wing's characters as the most stale in all of Gundam (and most anime, in general). They sit & stagnate for some forty episodes, without any development (or even base personality at all in about half the cases), and most of the development that does happen is completely random & nonsensical.


That could be said of all Gundamn not just Gundamn Wing.

G Gundam I found was strongest in its characters; I felt the corny backdrop of a Mecha Martial Arts Olympics was aided greatly by the strong, surprisingly well-written personalities.
All of which were over completely overwhelmed by the
incredibly crappy music.


Nagisa wrote:
And SEED, while not on the epicly thorough level of the Amuro/Char region of Gundam, had some of the stronger and more fleshed out characters of the franchise.
Which isn't saying much....

Alexander Senki - Otherwise known as Reign:
.....the utter lack of character development for anyone but Alexander, bizarre,


I found that to be a rather compelling aspect of the series as it
is accurate to the character concept of Alexander.

Nagisa wrote:

underdeveloped subplots that took the characters out of whatever little development they did get (the great chicken of the group suddenly trying to assassinate Alexander?),


You're coorect in that the series should have been longer to explain some of the concepts and characters.

Nagisa wrote:
and the fact that an otherwise excellent story of political intrigue was blasted apart by utter garbage trying to pass itself off as "high brow" and "intelligent" (so you guys like playing with prisms, great, get back to the war with Persia!) are what ruined it for me.


It was not utter garbage. And if you didn't understand the prisms you just don't understand this series at all. It was a excellent postmodern intpetation of the greek philosphers. The episode with Diogenes makes philosophers like me smile....it was excellent.

Gungrave - One of the three big shows I hate with a passion that everyone else in the universe seems to adore (don't worry, I get to the other two right after this). In the early parts of the series, when it was a biographical Mafia tale of two best friends, I felt the series actually had promise.


OMG, I agree....

Nagisa wrote:
It wasn't great, but it had all the tools to get there with sufficient character development, servicable visuals, and the promise of some sort of nice "supernatural redemption" angle later on. Unfortunately, by the time the first majour villain rolled around (Blood War, or whatever the devil his name was), it all began to fall apart.


Its called revenge of the Video Game.

Nagisa wrote:
Firstly, the utterly inane "zombie mafia army" bit started to develop, which just seemed like a stupid idea to me (spoiler[yes, it's how Brandon Heat comes back as Beyond the Grave, but there were better solutions they could've used without bringing in generic, stock "bad guy type" monsters]). And then the more that angle developed, the more it dragged the show down.
The final episode with Harry kinda had the beggining of the series feel but the whole monster hunt thing should have been left in the video game.

Nagisa wrote:

Love Hina - I hear people defend this show all the time by saying "the manga is great," but that still doesn't excuse the anime from being utter tripe. The story is essentially a giant setup for one unfunny fanservice joke after another (actually, more like taking the same setup & delivery and recycling it over 26+ episodes!), all revolving around some of the most unlikable characters I've ever encountered.


You obviously haven't seen Sister Princess...now there's utter tripe with disgusting characters. I didn't find the all characters to be unlikable just most of them. Most of them were also unnecessary and therefore annoying. Look man, its a harem show...what were you expecting?

Nagisa wrote:

I could barely find a single one to actually give a damn about (Motoko became semi-decent near the end, but it was all too little, too late), and the fact that the central protagonists are a sorry, sickening, pervert who's clumsy beyond all conceivability and a rabid tramp who lacks any sort of common sense, ability to listen to others, or even general decency just made it so much more painful to watch.


And thats a match made in heaven in my sadistic little world. Watching Love Hina is like watching a training wreck.... over and over and over again. Its fun....

Nagisa wrote:
It's just the same exact joke over and over again with the pathetic, hopeless, perverted geek and unstable psycho bantering back & forth until it mercifully ends. How do people stand this steaming pile!?


Its like S&M bondage without actually being tried up and whipped.

Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi - And I thought Gainax could do comedy after seeing FLCL. Must've been a fluke, because this is just trash. The parodies are tolerable for about four or five episodes (except for the fact that they go the wrong direction sometimes...like the sci-fi parody which centered on soiled children's underwear!), but the fact that it was all just the same couple jokes (most of which involved MuneMune's giant chest) got real old in a hurry, especially when they introduced the rather intriguing plot. l


Its a Gainax production...nuff said....

Nagisa wrote:
Pilot Candidate - My memory's fuzzy (lucky for it), but what I do remember of this sorry excuse for a show was the worst commercial CG animation I've ever seen (no questions, bottom line, worst ever), flat characters that really didn't do much to develop (hey, the same could be said for the plot, what a coicidence), and no semblance of an ending whatsoever. Again, it's been a long time, but I remember having no kind words for it (save for "catgirl! Anime catgrin + sweatdrop ").


Its the standard "last hope for humanity with underage trainees and aliens" mecha and by the end you're rooting for the aliens. In short, its a mecha which takes itself seriously and therefore sucks.

some of those don't suck, and nintendo sure doesnt. some of those are madefor kids who are probably about the age of 10 and under.. that doesn't necessarily mean that you have to watch and critize it.

In your opinion. Your personal view is not universal truth.
