Haven't heard of the first one, but I'm pretty sure Ero-manga Sensei was panned across the board here in ADTRW.

I think most people that were watching kado actually finished it hoping it would tie everything up but nope. And it won top honors anyways

As a certified kado watcher it ended up being something along the lines of:
The first half of eps were different but in an intriguing way. Definitely wanted to watch more. It was 3D animated but I didn't mind this time. Also good OP/ED.
The latter half of eps added generic anime themes, time fuckery, and many other elements as they got towards the end. Went from 'wanting to watch the end' to just 'glad it ended'.

Is Made in Abyss good or bad? The best anime thread seems to have liked it and I've been relying on it for recommendations at times.

People seem to like it but a lot of children die and possibly also the author may be a weirdo?

The original manga had some really questionable poo poo from an author known for his history of questionable poo poo, and while the anime does try to downplay that and put a somewhat acceptable-seeming spin on it, it’s still there.

You’ll see a lot of people saying ‘well, if you can handle all the naked, traumatised children, it’s pretty great’.

the author wants to gently caress kids and tweets stuff like 'the love of little boys and girls will not be stopped,' and it's filled with naked children in a way that is trying way too hard to be able to pass off as artsy, the anime tries to excise that stuff but not completely

4. Restaurant to Another World. Boring drivel that feels like someone Googled "most popular manga subjects", picked two at random, and just started writing, without any idea of structure, or plot, or characters, or any hook other than "isekai + food" and "it's comfy and pleasant".


Comfy and pleasant and boring is what it's supposed to be, anyone who expected plot was playing themselves

Sorry to undo the effort of paying a domestic abuser $10 to own this poster, but I am going to lose my dang mind if I keep seeing multiple posters who appear to be Baloogan.

I guess I should’ve put mia as avoided. I stopped watching after the naked bondage torture punishment for the main girl

I call it boring to acknowledge, that yes, it may bore some people, but it serves a specific niche of others who like food series and relaxing in between more plot heavy anime.

That said, Isekai Restaurant is too boring to be on any worst list, it's harmless unlike some other shows listed here

Boring is perhaps, the worst crime of all because it means there's v little to say about a show.
