how was this boring? just visually alone it was captivating, let alone the fact that it was a very well done school level no stakes mystery detective story. it also had one of the best if not the best school festival arc in the history of all anime.

An obnoxious self insert power fantasy isekai that's a "satire" of the genre but then actually just does all the tropes unironically
>>
>>283294586
I just dont really care for any of the characters.
It tries to be a chuuni OP satire, or so Ive read, but it takes so seriously thats its just bad and uninteresting.

Lots and lots and lots of characters, yet they feel like background charas, no one is important, its just shadow and his bitches.

I know it has its fans, but I repeat, I just dont care for the world, for the plot, for the charas, for the drama, for the twists... To me thats boring.

>>
>>283293246
Almost every sci-fi anime made between 2000 and 2010 is boring.
Not slow-burn, as that would imply most have a direction they're building to. More like the budgets were so low they just spun their wheels with slow pans over stills, or long uninteresting dialog dumps.
Even good examples, like Stand Alone Complex, are drab and pointlessly dragged out for no reason.
The color palettes used is probably a part of this. They're almost all some variant of too beige or grey.
>>

It was.
The thing I remember about this show is that I fell sleep while watching and dreamt that one of the girls got raped and pregnant, it was so vivid I had to check episode to make sure. Unfornately, it didn't happen.

That and the OP/ED were good, I still listen to them.

Hyouka, neither the novel it was based on nor the show, was never promoted as a romance title. It was always a school parody of detective novels.

Fucking thank you. This shit is such a boring nothingburger. The MC’s whole motivation is to become the mayor of her town. So what do we even see during the 12-episode run? Nothing. Fucking Bocchi the Rock, a CGDCT slice-of-life anime, had more drive and purpose than this.

I watched this about 15 years ago when I mostly consumed old 90's anime.

I've tried to watch Ergo Proxy two times, back in 2006 and then a second time a couple of years ago. I can't think of a more midwit sci-fi anime than this one. It's like the mansion scene in GitS Innocence except it's ugly, drab and utterly pointless. Just randomly quoting philosophers while going through brown-gray environments for 10+ episodes in a row. When you see people praise it, ask them what the story was about, and then ask them what their favorite scene was. I guarantee you they will only talk about three episodes: The first one, the game show one and the final one.

I dropped Hyouka back when it aired in the first episode because Oreki talking about muh gray muh colorful made it sound like it was going to be the most retarded anime ever. Watched it a few weeks ago because I liked Shoushimin and it was good, but it's still overrated because of the KyoAni bonus.

Not only do you have to sit through 40 straight minutes of retarded technobabble, you have to do it TWICE because some asshole decided that a split timeline would be a cool concept and just wrote the same book/movie twice, but if you want the full story then you gotta read/watch fucking both of them for a mediocre romance story where the girl isn't even on screen for 3/4ths of the run time
at least it's only 3 hours of total run time and not a grueling 24 episode slogfest like some other shows in this thread

I understand why anyone would think of Hyouka as boring since the first time I tried I was barely able to finish ep1 but, for some unknown reason I was absolutely hooked on it the second time I tried years after.

I have to disagree there, man.
Horizon to me was basically random bullshit happening and the author didn't care at all if you got it or not. The confidence and lack or care if the audience was following through was so amusing to me that i thoroughly enjoyed it. It's also pretty great to rewatch because you eventually start 'getting it'.
Even mundane shit like talking about politics and commerce was so interesting because it was either over the top crazy or just fascinating how unique the world is.
S3 Never.
Seraph anime never
Godless anime never.
The novels are a different story. It sure took me a while to finish the first one alone.

in recent memory? onimai. overall? probably mohoromatic. it's just a collection of tropes already done before. even for its time it was scene as very generic. i think that was my issue with onimai as well. it doesn't do anything new. just the same basic themes of school, beach, hotspring, festival, no parents, etc all the other sol anime have.

Its a pretty slow moving manga, I dropped it back when there were only 30 chapters after 20 of them, but came back to it a year ago, and now I'm up to date. I think its perfectly reasonable to bounce off of it. You have to go on for quite a while before you get answers to most anything as well.

It's not properly post-apocalyptic, because technically only Tokyo has been destroyed. And not even by a nuclear strike but due to the failure of a nearby nuclear power plant at that. That's why the anime was originally cancelled in the aftermath of the Fukushima disaster, suddenly the sci-fi scenario hit a bit too close to home.

Anyway, the premise is that the Japanese gov't is sending genetically engineered highschool girls who are (among other things) immune to radiation into Tokyo, ostensibly to rescue people. In reality the whole Coppelion mission is more of a test run for a line of potential super soldiers. Despite how all of this may sound, the story isn't at all gritty as you might expect, though, and more of an action adventure throwing around mutant super powers, gunplay, spider tanks and whatnot. It does try have its serious moments, but it's by no means an anime rendition of STALKER, which disappointed most anons and most viewers in general back in the day. The series just taps into the aesthetic.

So if you're in search of heart wrenching post-apocalyptic survival drama, I'm afraid I can't recommend it. If you like the idea of cute girls duking it out in a ruined city, however, then you should have fun.

This was more painfully retarded than boring. Definitely one of the worst shows ever in terms of writing.

>>283293294
I thought Hyouka was boring up until around episode 5 or 6 when the formula clicked for me. Usually I wouldn't give a boring show that many episodes but this was back when Kyoani was in its prime so I gave it a chance and ended up liking it.
>>
>>283293294
Hyouka isn't boring it's just low stakes and slow.
Literally half of the mysteries are just an excuse to have the characters develop into a team.
For some thats what makes it great but I can understand if someone does not like that too.

Gundam The Origin is fucking boring as shit; that's truly the word to describe it, G-Saviour is worse, and SEED Destiny pisses me off with how much wasted potential it had (still like it better than SEED though), but I'd still probably re-watch them - The Origin can fuck right off though.
How does more cool stuff happen in the last thirty seconds of episode five than the entire hour and a fucking half of episode six. What is the fucking point of this stupid ass prequel, it suffers so hard from being a prequel where you know how things will turn out and tip-toeing around the fact that the first Mobile Suit engagement is explicitly episode one of 0079.
Fuck this garbage, not even Shuichi Ikeda can save this crap.

I think the moment I realized Konosuba, in spite of all its perverted nonsense, actually was written by someone with a hint of self awareness, was when Kazuma was being interrogated with that truthsayer bell and had to completely roast himself because it kept going off at every white lie he tried to tell.

It's less about the actual A to B story and more about using the characters as a vehicle to introduce the audience to interesting concepts (layers). That being said there absolutely is a main plot, but it's intentionally delivered in scattered parts, you're only ever given just enough so that you can understand the next layer. It's certainly a think tank anime (What does this mean? What does that stand for? What is this trying to show me? ect). It explores identity, loss of innocence, the effects on humanity of creating another conscious layer above our physical reality that dictates what we perceive as truth, among other things. Understandably that is not for everyone, so if you don't care for psychological stuff in general Lain is the great filter, as it almost wholly leans into that field. It's dense with an eerie atmosphere and solemn visuals. At first it seems to be an entirely different show than what it is, and eventually those scattered plot elements will start to convene and accelerate, hurdling the viewer towards a cliff as the plot reaches the point of no return. Once you have a grasp on everything the show was trying to tell you, it's almost even more interesting on rewatches as you can fully understand all the bits and pieces that were right in front of you the whole time. It's definitely a one of a kind show that I can admit is not for everyone, as if you watch anime for a very straightforward A to B plot with powerups and battles, or a shallow slice of life all about cute girls doing cute things, you will find none of that here. Also Lain is cute.

I can perfectly understand being bored by this. I only checked it out originally because I liked the opening and because cute witches are cute, then somehow I got hooked by what I found to be a very relaxing atmosphere. I'm not sure why a lot of similar shows just bore me to tears and then there's the occasional odd one out like Flying Witch where I suddenly don't mind that nothing happens. So I can't take offense that other people hate it although personally I enjoyed it a lot.

I watched Lain and I'm fully willing to admit lots of those concepts went straight over my head. I think what makes me like Lain and wanna rewatch it is because it explores lots of concepts in 1999 about technology, psychology, and the internet drastically before what we see today. I think thats why I'm drawn to lots of retro futuristicand scfi animes guessing what the future will be like. I'm going to rewatch Lain with these ideas in mind next time though.
>>
>>283293246
This may be considered a popular show, but it was Mahouka. All that techno magic talk was painfully boring, the show only gets good when Tatsuya gets into actual action, which is a pity because that only happens a handful times in the series.
