It's not as deep as you think it is, even the creators of the show agree
>>
Long term? Probably Isuca or Something Something Flag Something. I have long moved on tho.
Recent? That monster girls school last season. Like bro I don't know shit of who any of these characters are. I know the entire point is that it is an ad for the author who makes pootoober avatars but at least try.
Even watching the final episode at 2x felt like a waste of 9.5 minutes.

The Rising of the Shield Hero and Jack of all trades.

Naofumi is simultaneously a horrible, obnoxious person and built up as some kind of god that just makes 'all the right choices' (everyone else is fucking retarded). He's very similar to Danaerys in the later seasons of GoT except worse because at least she is as retarded as everyone else becomes.

Jack of all trades is similar to Shield Hero to me because both have obnoxiously perfect as protagonist. This shit is the guy version of a mary sue, these are barely stories, just LN authors masturbating to themselves and creating mockeries of fictional characters that exist to make their masturbation session more satisfying.

This shit is for people that have no friends and think they're justified in spurning real relationships for fantasy.

It's literally a mahjong autist who can't believe a cgdct show about girls playing mahjong wasn't wall-to-wall mahjong games.

It's like complaining the Keions weren't always playing their instruments.

I'm powering through edomae elf, this shit is so bland and lame, I got drawn in by the OP and the characters design but is just awful, the art itself is fine but it got like a dozen filters on top that makes the animation blurry and hard to watch.

We talking actual worst, or most pointless?

If the former, then Sword Art Online, if the latter, Rick & Morty: The Anime (though it's a close second to being the full-out worst).

C: The Possibility of Cash or whatever it was called was pretty damn bad. It could have been a cool show too if they did literally anything other than make it a battle anime.

>>287501677
That shit was originally supposed to have 2 seasons.
>>
>>287500033
nah I havent seen that I believe. I quit after like 8 episodes because it was becoming the generic isekai power fantasy #412 with very lame plot. Embarassingly predictable. None of the characters were any interesting to me. I've seen over 300 anime (which is of course nothing on this site) and this was the first anime I ever dropped.

Sword Art Online. How was that shit ever popular.

Akagi at the very least has someone playing mahjong in 25 out of 26 total episodes. Pon no Michi they play like twice in 12 episodes
Tetsuya also has a mahjong game in every episode. Tohai also has a mahjong game in every episode. Legend of Koizumi is only 20 minutes long, but it's 19 minutes of mahjong gameplay.
Pon no Michi and Jantama Pon are the two mahjong shows that aren't about mahjong
>>
>>287498874
Sci-Fi Harry. I only bothered to keep watching due to the inertia of my initial interest, and because the OP/ED were really good--better than the anime actually.
>>
>>287503265
Then they’re not mahjong anime.

>>287503265
I don't understand why there are so many animes that hyperfixate on some chinese card game. I get why the first or second guy who makes this might think this is a fun topic but you listed six here. Why didn't at least four of them pick any other genre?

SAO isn't even the first "Trapped in an MMO" anime, .hack// predates it by 18 years, and even THAT isn't an original idea, the concept of being trapped in virtual reality was already done by The Matrix, and I would bet money that the idea of being trapped in a virtual reality was already done by Star Trek, and I would bet money again that the idea was done in pulpy sci-fi novels LONG before Star Trek was a thing.

SAO didn't kick off jack shit.

Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom because a buddy kept putting a couple episodes on when we hung out in between frying chicken, smoking and drinking, and me whooping his ass in Soul Calibur 2 and 6. Good times. We eventually watched it all but it was just boring gunplay

But it was still better than some shows he tried to get me to watch with him like Orphan or Innocent Venus, which I watched two episodes of each and asked him to pick something else. Miss you Sean

I can't speak for shows that were garbage from day one, but Tokyo Ghoul definitely turned into trash halfway through.

Is trying really hard to pander to otakus but from like a second hand account of what otakus are, there are multiple scenes where Koito scolds Elda because her room is a mess but they show like a handful of toys and boxes laying around none of the trash that a really messy otakus room should have.

This is technically correct while also sort of being incorrect at the same time. It definitely did create the 2012 boom of anime adapting isekai but from the light novel end Jobless reincarnation was a big part in the boom of mass light novels being made.

Objectively the worst show that I've finished is Gibiate, but personally I found it to fall in the "so bad it's good" category.
Personally the worst show that I've finished was Egao no Daika, 12 episodes was never going to be enough to do whatever they tried with the show and it resulted with both sides of the conflict lacking development. The character plots were mostly cut short or ended in an anticlimactic way and the solution to the problem that sparked the conflict was basically "everything fixed itself once we stopped riding around in mechs".
The first episode has a great hook to drag you in and it was the only reason that I believed things would get better.

>>287526173
i lean toward serious for most. expectations are poison, and mainstream stuff that is praised will build it up high, so when they then actually watch it and are dissapointed they get more agitated than usual and remember it as a supreme dissapointment, despite it likely being better than other stuff they've seen & forgotten.
