You guys know that I love anime. Hopefully this blog shows my feelings towards the art! Just like my video game blog, I think about anime every single day. The movement of the anime industry is extremely important to me. I've seen the absolutely amazing content that the industry has put forth, and continues to push out to this day. The treasure trove of amazing anime content out there deserves to be recognized by the masses. Well, some of it anyway!
Not every anime out there can be a gem. We wouldn't love the good if there weren't the bad out there. Usually it's very easy to spot the content that didn't exactly get the same love and care that other features did. There are certain earmarks to look for in bad anime content, and they usually smack you in the face within the first couple episodes of the franchise. Thankfully there's much more good content than bad.
There's also the anime content that people put high above the other workings of the industry. The anime features that man fans gush on and on about, seeing it as the best that the industry can crank out. Since I'm a very easy-going guy, I usually agree with the anime crowd when they gush about a feature being well worth your time. With that said, I know that there are certain anime out there that are applauded by many, but others wonder why.
What anime do you think is quite overrated by fans and critics alike? I'm sure there's a series or a film that you watched, expecting an amazing experience, but coming away just moderately happy. Leave us a comment and let us know about that feature that just didn't tickle you like you thought it would. No worries, you won't be judged here!
I think both One Piece and Bleach are overrated.
ReplyDeleteCowboy Bebop. It's really good, but people talk about it like it's their religion.
ReplyDeleteOne Piece, as well. I have NO idea what people see in that show.
Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, and K-ON!.
ReplyDeleteBakemonogatari.
ReplyDeleteEvangalion :P I think the new movies are much much better though ^^
ReplyDeleteHow can Cowboy Bebop, Bakemonogatari and Evangelion be 'overrated' is a mystery to me. Sometimes I feel that people go a little "off limits" with they subjective judgements. I mean, everyone could say that the original Star Wars is a dull movie if they wanted to and I'll still respect them but really... I guess not everybody has the knowledge to read things a little more in depth or knows about cinema enough (because yes, Bakemonogatari for example has a strong directorial value. Great\symbolic camera use. The content himself isn't that good though, it's just a funny play spectator-is-an-otaku-main char-is-an-otaku-too-in-reality). Oh and I'd say GTO is an overrated anime. Stupid fanservice-and-trying-to-be-cool stuff.
