I couldn't get past three episodes of Chuuni that show's premise is one that could work or crash horribly and it just crashed for me. I like noted bad show Beyond the Boundary even though the show's writing is a mess but I think that show's leads worked well together whereas I never really liked Rikka and Yuta.


Pretty much, Clannad is just kind of a polished Kanon set in Spring. After Story works much better by not being dragged down by having to split focus and play out all of the other girls stories.

Rikka and Yuta are probably the most boring of the Main characters all things considered though the Chuuni abuse is adorable in its own sadistic way.

I haven't finished Hyouka yet, but the gif thread brought it to my attention and I'm really liking it. If the person responsible for those gifs is in this thread, thank you. :3:

I wish I could put these all at number one, though, because I love them equally.

-1) Clannad

A friend told me to watch this. I got about a dozen episodes in before I rolled my eyes so hard that my retinas detached and now I can't watch any more anime at all. I think that the magical parent death resolving briefcase was what really drove me over the edge. I really did not like that show.

Haruhi and Eva both take huge risks and are about as equally controversial, it's no surprise that their appeal wouldn't be universal.

I soldiered through it after feeling the same way you did and the ending is probably one of the worst I've ever seen

I think the only real debate would be between the Busters and Eva, maybe FLCL as well. Other standouts like Kare Kano and Honneamise are much less well known and the stock of Gurren-Lagann has from my perspective fallen precipitously in the years since.
