KissxSis and HSotD aren't good.
Unless you want to fap to cartoons.
Then they're amazing.

High School of the Dead is really good if you have the maturity of a 14 year old and shy away from anything actually worth watching. Wow, a zombie show lacking almost any tension with terribly cliched and awful characters with a terrible and overdone art style with lots of ****.

Yeah totally quality ****.

The sad part is... it had so much potential...
For an anime...

My friend told me to watch High School of the Dead because it's like a cross between hentai clichés and zombies, which apparently I'd appreciate.

Not gonna lie.

I'd probably be pissing myself with laughter the entire time, but it's probably the same thing if I walked the sreets of Tokyo.

As long as you would put yourself in that mindset then there you go.

There's worse animes out there.

Maybe I'm just sort of spoiled because I saw Spirited Away when I was like 10.

Elfen lied looked scary enough for me not to watch it.

I just ended up watching samurai 7 and last exile instead.

What does it matter if an anime is 'bad'? If you enjoy it, that's all there is to it really.

I was gonna ask what those other two anime were about, but that's what Google/Wiki's are for.

I started a new anime which is posted about constantly in a page on facebook dedicated to Metagross. It's called Shinryaku! Ika Musume (Invade! Squid Girl). I'm in the second episode and so far it's nothing special, but it's amusing enough to watch.

This post is soo full of win. Thank you LLR.

The thing about School Days needs to be fixed though, although I'm like the only person I know who loved the show, let alone almost cry at the ending.

Neon Genesis Evangelion is my favorite anime ever. <3

I really love Lain too! <3

:phone:
You ever heard/watched Rahxephon? It's like NGE, only not with a wimpy *** lead.

And I'm guessing you mean Serial Experiments Lain?

You're watching Squid Girl?
I feel sorry for you de geso.
Oh, and I heard Pico to Chico is one of the best love stories ever told.
All of you should check it out.

I watched that show. I had very mixed feelings about it. It's like, the end explained some things that really bugged me but the thing is, I went through that show being annoyed because of those things, so it's kinda like...eh.

Oh yeah and the lead character bored me to death.

Don't forget Queen's Blade. That has more shameless fanservice then any of those 2 shows.

I'm putting Squid Girl on hold. I got three episodes in and with most animes I've liked, I was enthralled by that point. I'm feeling nothing with it. I'm moving on to Death Note. I bought the box set of the manga and loved the hell out of it and my coworkers are practically begging me to watch it.

oh god what sub group are using to watch squid girl? i winced at every squid pun horriblesubs and animeultra used, and was much happier with the translators that simply added 'de geso' at the end of every sentence (think it was fffpeeps).

death note is great

watch gurren lagann if you haven't already

Yea, I agree with you. Even though Rah is my favorite show, it does have some plotholes and the ending didn't solve everything. Although for me, the journey to the conclusion was all I needed.

So much this. Both are awesome imho, and definitely worth the time.

death note is great
am I the only one who thinks this is overrated? I just couldn't get into it... but I'm not gonna judge. As this thread shows people have very different tastes when it comes to "good" anime...

Well that's the curse of mainstream really, you'll have to expect over hype and just try to watch them without outside bias in order to enjoy the show.
Unfortunately that is self defeating in the fact that if an anime or anything is recommended to you, You do have expectations of it being great.

I only read the manga, I don't know if the deathnote anime was any good.

In fact, most of the animes I've watched have been a lot worse than the manga

Basically~

Recent anime I've watched I'd probably say Another was good cuz I really liked it :3 and the manga was basically the exact same thing so if you prefer reading it rather than watching it. it works out~
It's also NOT LONG

It was already mentioned previously in the thread.

I just wanted to reiterate how amazing it is.
