| We all have those anime where we have high expectations for but it turns out to be bad or mediocre. Maybe it was rushed or it was just bad execution. For me these animes are: Danganronpa the Animation, Danganronpa 3, Kobayashi's Dragon Maid, Wattamote |

| "You Should've Liked It" I obviously shouldn't have liked them if they are trash. |
 |
| Princess Lover! I dropped it as soon as some guy said "screwing girls" in the first episode. I used to be an SJW. I should rewatch it. |

IpreferEcchi said: I used to be an SJW. What ? they can release you from that cult ? isn't it like a life long goal ? OP: there is no such anime, and never will and should be. |
 |
| I don't see how "should have liked" can even be a thing |

| >hating japanese cartoons i seriously hope you guys don't do this |
 |
| I never have high expectations before watching any anime...The animes that i don't like and are pretty high ranked: ano hi mata hana no namae Assassination Classroom S2 Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica Zankyou no Terror Kill la kill |
 |
| Bare Bears . All my friends seem to love that shit but I'm more a Gumball guy . |
| I don't think I 'should've liked' anything. Everyone is free to like what they want |
| BTOOOM! was the weirdest experience. Death Game is an awesome scenario and easily one of my favorite genres. Even if you don't use it to explore deep characters, it's often thrilling, dramatic and fun. BTOOOM! was just a pile of grimdark bullshit without a proper end. I have no idea how anyone can like it, really. |

| "Wanna be the strongest itw" was one of my biggest disappointments :( |
   |
| I don't hate it but I was pretty disappointed with Haikyuu. Sports is one of my favorite genre and I like the crazy ones like Kuroko as well as the more realistic ones like Oofuri, so I didn't think anything could go wrong with one of the most praised sports anime on this site, but then I watched it and.. it was pretty bland for the most part to be honest. I don't hate it and I don't think it's bad, but it wasn't as exciting as other sports anime I've watched. |

| Guilty Crown... I still have it on hold even though I started it months ago. I will say I enjoyed the first half to an extent but the second half is just so unbearable to me. But yeah, Guilty Crown. |
 |
| I went into Madoka Magica expecting to like it. After all, it was supposedly the next development in the magical girl genre following Nanoha, which I'm a huge fan of. Unfortunately, the show was...lackluster, in my opinion, and went in directions that didn't make sense. (I can elaborate if anyone wants but I feel like I've done it enough times already...) I was also disappointed by Fractale, especially given its strong framing -- the OP is good and the ED is absolutely gorgeous. Though I can't say I hate it. rocket5847 said: I feel that the comedy doesn't quite fit it. It would generally benefit from a more consistent tone, with less silly rom-com elements but more using that to give meaning to the drama.Don't know what to say, I could mention Plastic Memories, but to me that's a mediocre characters full of...plastic characters. Code:Breaker have a story that is not interesting at all and a bunch of corpses instead of characters. Akame ga Kill does'n know what tune should use, sometime is really dark, nasty and gory, but other moments it's too colorful and happy, and I don't really care about it's characters. Maybe are other series that I "hate" but I don't remember, but I don't think this anime series should like me, I think I don't like them, cause to me, they are mediocre. RedKitten13 said: I nearly dropped Absolute Duo shortly after starting it, because I just didn't like the fanservice, but I don't think I had particularly high expectations for it in the first place, since I'd just come off watching Asterisk War and Hundred, both of which were sorta meh but which I watched because I wanted to see what the fuss was with Asterisk War and more broadly with the school battle harem genre. But I stuck with Absolute Duo and it turned out to be my favorite of the three -- the characters gradually turned out to be more entertaining than I expected them to be, the way the two main characters stuck together as a couple (despite some harem hints) was actually pretty nice, and the music is gorgeous.- Absolute Duo Sakky2213 said: I wanted to like this, given how strong some of the music is. Unfortunately -- like many things in the show -- that didn't work out right.Guilty Crown... I still have it on hold even though I started it months ago. I will say I enjoyed the first half to an extent but the second half is just so unbearable to me. But yeah, Guilty Crown. |
| Avatar character is Gabriel from Gabriel DropOut. |
| Code Geass, AoT, and Tokyo Ghoul are ones I most controversially distaste. |
  |
| There isn't any anime that I should have liked, that sounds ridiculous. I don't hate these shows but I thought they were disappointing: Bounen no Xamdou Colorful (Movie) Mawaru Penguindrum Code Geass One Outs |

| Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu. Not that I didn't get some enjoyment out of it, but I found it to be boring for the most part. Maybe I wasn't part of the demographic that it was made for? I guess it just wasn't my thing. |
 |
| Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica felt like such a chore to watch. Psycho Pass bored the shit out of me. Dropped it after 7 episodes. |
 |
| Hellsing: Ultimate - Vampires, Nazis, England; 3 Elements that seem excellent until you actually see the outcome... |
| Oregairu Zoku maybe. Considering how much I enjoyed the first season I was expecting to love the second one as well. Ended up hating it lmao |
 |
| Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo should probably be one of my favourite animes but I hate it... Just seem to be bored watching most of the time. |
velvetPhos said: I don’t understand what you mean. It sounds like the anime that I hate for no reason even though that anime has qualities that I love or something like that. I don’t lie to myself, so none. I think the OP means "anime you were really looking forward to but your expectations were crushed". Or something like that. xD You wanted to like it but could not. We all have at least ONE of those. |
|
| 12-sai I should've enjoyed since it involves romantic couples and everything working out in the end but idk I got really bored with the show Same thing with Hellsing Ultimate. It had a badass OP protag which I quite enjoy but I couldn't find myself to find any enjoyment in the show |

| So I was hanging out with a few friends a few years ago who talked about AKB0048, Rinne no Lagrange (a.k.a. Lagrange: the Flower of Rin-ne), and Symphogear. I watched AKB0048, and liked it (the first season, not the second). I watched Lag-Rin and liked it. (Though I've still only seen one season. Said friends would go on to watch the second season and hate it, along with hating the first season, which led to interesting arguments.) I watched Symphogear, and...it was underwhelming. Both those friends like this show but I found it to be melodramatic and not very dramatically effective. |
| Avatar character is Gabriel from Gabriel DropOut. |
| Hmmm... Excluding sequels in which I found disappointing compared to the prequels These are the ones that I thought had interesting ideas that I would have thoroughly enjoyed if it was executed more properly. Zankyou no Terror Alnoah.Zero Seikon no Qwaser (the elements part) Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress Nagi no Asukara Deadman Wonderland Elfen Lied Dimension W Gantz Kantai Collection |

Bitch me too Gumball is the animu of the century |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Nothing. What I like, I'm supposed to like and that's it :>. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| Stein's Gate. With a 9.14 score it couldn't be bad right? overrated perhaps, but not bad. Well, I was wrong. Mnemosyne. It was dark and edgy, so I thought I was going to like it. But it just isn't very good. Shigurui. Same, but the fact that it is unfinished made it even worse. Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works. I loved F/Z, but Shiro made this anime borderline unwatchable. Ao no Exorcist: Kyoto Fujouou-hen. I really liked season 1 (unexpectedly in fact), but s2 was just... lackluster. Still, I hope they continue it, but it probably wont. Koutetsujou no Kabaneri. I really liked AoT, so I expected to like this as well, and I did, until the second half of the season started... and it was SAO level of quality. |

| I don't hate them per se, but Code Geass and Death Note were pretty underwhelming. |
| Just check my manga list if you want the anime scores... I'd mostly rate them the same unless there's any significant change to the plot. |
| I was really hoping to enjoy Kuuchu Buranko but I found all the characters emotionally unengaging and forgettable. I also honestly found the visual style pretty garish. It's unique but... so ugly. |
some crazy bitches say FMAB is the best but Gumball is the peak of this industry , I'm glad there still are people who appreciate good animu. How could someone not enjoy this masterpiece? |
| Oregairu and Snow white of the red hair. After hearing constant praises of these two, I decided to check them out, thinking I would like said animes. But they turned out to be boring for me. In addition, I thought Steins;Gate would be great, but it was not as good as I expected it to be. |

| Urusei Yatsura: I like most of characters, but, my least favorite ones are Lum and Ten, they are both very annoying, esepecially Lum, she is vindictive, pushy, annoying, there are 2-3 times when she was passable, but, most of times i couldnt stand her, and i dropped UY after a while. |

I guess it just wasn't my thing. Same for me, I'm part of its target demography, but I still found it extremely boring and just not worth watching at all. I don't know why people praise it that much. There wasn't anything exceptional about it. |

Maybe the sequel is better but I'm not motivated enough to watch it.. |
