The Mike Toole Show -The Worst Anime of All Time

Of the recent TV fare:

Cross Ange: If sadism and rape are you thing, you might enjoy this show. But, this show is only for those who enjoy hating the characters they're watching. I would like to describe it as Game of Thrones without the hope. No doubt, watching it will make a you bad person if you're not already.

-Fate/Stay Night and Zero: Both are the worst adaptions of any eroge ever complete with: Far too much talking, too much filler, bad music, absolutely dreadful pacing, forced drama, bland characters, and a lack of memorable moments. I barely kept up with all the nonsense and by the end I felt like these should have been movies and even the Unlimited Blade Works movie STILL had most of these errors after so much was cut out. I consider Zero worse for one reason: In consistent run times. No, I don't want flashbacks of some guy taking up a full episode, no I don't want it to extend to another ten minutes, no I don't want more pointless bickering about nothing, no I don't want some boring subplot about Saber losing control of her thumb (why the hell was that even in this story?), no I don't want some woman having her arm gunned off and the writing going "look we're smart duh hur hur", etc. Since they were eroge adaptions they don't get a proper score, but if I did I'd give them a 1/10.

-Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha: Mostly the same as Puni Puni Poemii, but much tamer and Fate's mom was a decent villain. However, this series has failed miserably at being a monster of the week series and acted lazy about it (making a tree with vagina dentata a monster does not make). Either you stick with it or not even start. 2/10 and no I haven't seen the movies.

Someone mentioned Diabolik Lovers and I realized I had successfully blotted it out of my mind and forgotten it.

Yeah no THAT'S easily one of the worst anime I've seen in recent memory. Yeah, otome game adaptations have the issue of vapid, empty protagonists.....but never has a single character INFURIATED ME SO MUCH as the girl in DL. I can't believe I watched as much of it as I did.

It's not a Monster of the Week series. This concept has only been used for the first three episodes of the first season. See, you do have no idea.

Any show existing only for loli fanservice: There seem to be too many fitting this terrible trend. Regardless of technical quality or other qualities, I submit them for the title of worst for moral reasons, along with Cross Ange. Just bad ideas. Some examples would KnJ and Asteroth's Toy.

It can't objectively be called bad. With the top notch artwork, animation, voice acting, and music, it is simply objectively good (or well done, if you'd prefer).

So, you do have no idea.

Just looking at that paragraph makes me want to laugh and cry at the same time. Like, there is so much critical research failure, pretension, bias, and ignorance in there that it makes me want to bang my head against a wall. Look, I try to be nice, but that guy's always been kind of negative and mean to me. He IS a mecha fanboy (and from the wretched hive called 4chan, I think), and if he stuck to mecha, I wouldn't care so much, but you know...

Yeah. I don't like being called stupid by someone who's part of a fandom that has a history of misogyny in it. =(]

I think him listing Kill la Kill, Nanoha and supporting a ban on certain anime made it a rather obvious troll or somebody trying to stir shit up.

prioritize their desires at the expense of anyone else.

Or they are my real opinions.

I need a puppy.

[...] so puppies. I like puppies. =)

Kodomo no Jikan. It may not have bad animation or lip synching, but in terms of being an revolting piece of garbage with no redeeming features there is no equal to KnJ in all of anime.

Maybe I'm biased because I think the manga's pretty good, and is a personal favourite of mine – when I watched the compilation OVA after reading the manga for the first time, I was less impressed than I think I was watching the anime originally – but this seems a bit strong.
