Most disappointing anime of 2014, in your opinion

samedi 13 décembre 2014

First of all don't get me wrong this isn't an "unpopularity contest" thread which Kameruka did last year. This is just a general opinion thread instead. I also not going to bother myself counting your "votes". By the way make sure to make tasteful criticism to the shows and not the people who loves them. Yes flame/troll wars are cool but not in this thread. I just want to keep clean from those.



Cross Ange: The real reason I made this thread in first place. The show itself isn't bad but it just a Gundam Seed clone but with more scantily-clad girls. Replace the yaoi-ness from GS with yuri instead. It was doomed from first episode with annoying main lead, boring supporting casts and unnecessary fanservice. For some reasons it is really popular and DVD/Blu-Ray sold relatively well, thanks to its clever marketing and hype campaign. Like it or not Sunrise got their new cash cow and I'm not surprise this will get (unnecessary) sequel after this to milk it again. It's a shame that I found (the universally despised) Code Geass better than this one.



Amagi Briliant Park: Having a bare-arse shot in first episode is a huge red flag towards it. If it made by someone else then I wouldn't mind but this one is from KyoAni, the same studio that made Clannad, FMP, Hyouka and of course Free!. If that wasn't bad enough it got worse and worse in later episodes with (rather forced) slapstick comedy that isn't funny or satirical at all. At this moment it safe to call KyoAni is Ubisoft of anime.



Shonen Hollywood: What do you expect from this one? Trash right but it is a shame I found this one better than Free! but that doesn't mean it's a good show. Just another attempt from rival studio to saps Free's popularity than anything else.



My dumber side wants to put Free! on the list but it was obvious on who's its target audiences are. I'm not suprise if KyoAni will show third season of it(it sold more than both seasons of K-On! combined) due to its (expected) overwhelming success. So it safe to say KyoAni is shadow of their glorious past.
