The anime character you HATE the most!
Renegade replied to LordSpleach's topic in Japanese Entertainment
Naruto was a likable character before the timeskip. He's suppose to mature afterword but he loses his best qualities and retains the annoying ones. His crazy fighting style is lost to Rasengan spam. Instead of youthful foolishness, he becomes plain stupid. Kurosaki Ichigo can't fight for drenn. He also has no personality. Also he has the best fighting abilities, yet can never win unless he powers up. -
It all depends how they present it. Let's hope Gundam doesn't turn into Macross. Pop music saves the universe!

I think Arios was the most boring of all the season 2 Gundams. It didn't have much screen time either.

UPDATE Finished everything that isn't still on air except: Jigoku Shoujo Mitsuganae-It's getting retarded. The Japanese have no concept of willpower. If you don't want to pull a string, you don't have to. These idiots will send themselves to hell if they had a bad itch the last scene of the episode! I stopped on like the 5th episode because it's just not clever anymore, and they force the string pulling now, defying all logic. Now Watching: Dragonball Kai-So nostalgic Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood-Please show the end of the manga Slayers Evolution-R-It's the same as it was 15 years ago. Hajime no Ippo: New Challenger-It's like crack Guin Saga-Guin Saga was one of the inspirations for Berserk. That alone should be enough reason to watch! Bleach-This show hasn't been good since the Soul Society arc One Piece-Always delivers, even the filler is entertaining Naruto: Shippuden-in between fillers, it's nice to see the fights animated, but I really wish I could just skip all the filler Synopsis of finished series: Vampire Knight-absolute crap, lot of potential, ends up as crap. First conceited people exist so they can be shot down, not so you admire how pretty they are. Second, physical strength comes from muscles, so how do stick people have super human strength?. Third, if you are feeling a lot of emotions, you act on them, not whine and become emo for 3/4 of EVERY EPISODE, especially not when you have supernatural powers. Crying over spilt milk for the billionth time and continuing the statis quo of repressed emotions and paper thin mysteries is not plot progression. Fourth, if someone threatens your life, you don't get scared and act surprised when they do something bad later, you stop them shortly after they tell you they will hurt you. Fifth, when you have complex issues like what defines humanity and racial conflict, you don't have it take back see to teen drama, it's much more interesting. Sixth (Wow, I still have more to say) fights have to have some kind of conclusion on air even if it means one of your pretty vampires has to fall down and get dirt all over their precious face. I could go on and on *ugh* but I'm tired, and the other series can wait. -

I'm going to say Cheridum because it's armaments are the coolest.
-
Definitely better than SEED. Can't wait for the movie. Setsuna-I'm actually glad his personality hasn't changed, but his world view has. Originally he thought a lot like the Innovators (mankind would have to be forcefully prevented from waging war), but he learned the value of freedom and now fights for an era when people can live together in harmony. Really glad they minimalized his interactions with Maria Ismail (Why Maria, Ismail is a Middle Eastern name and Maria is Italian). I thought it was ridiculous how attached Relena Peacecraft was to Heero Yui considering how little they interacted. Obviously 00 Raiser would be overpowered, glad they had the final fight scene with Exia. Lyle Dylandy (Lockon Stratos)-He really ended up being a bad ass, definitely had the most impressive fights without god hacks. His Gundam also had some of the coolest armaments. (H)Allelujah-Glad he reawakened, but he never really shined in the second season still. He should be the best pilot in the show, but he continues to kamikaze and leave himself open to an attack whenever both personalities are fighting. GN Archer was kind of boring, didn't really contribute to any fights or improve Arios. Tieria-His identity crisis didn't last long. He was less important to the plot this season, so the fact that he doesn't have a body doesn't really matter. HE had some good fight scenes, but Seravee/Seraphim had a lot more potential. Louise-I think her and Saji making up was oversimplified, they never really talked it out Saji-He was a grade A bitch in the beginning but it was completely justified and he was never just whiny. He completely changed after he led A-LAWS to the Catalon base and killed the refugees. Usually, characters need to make the same mistake several times to figure out what's wrong in anime to the point that we have to assume they are completely mentally inept, but Saji caught on at a realistically human point. He forgot at some times, but realized what he was doing before he repeated his mistake also. Graham Aker-Why did they bother with the Mr. Bushido crap? I think it was to parallel the Char/Zechs Marquise, rival with a fake name tradition. Notice that Graham Aker is now in the exact same role as Zechs at the end of Gundam Wing before the movie. That's why he's still alive, and that's why his mask was off in the last scene. Sumeragi Lee Noriega-So she uses men, drinks to forget her past, and continues as captain of Ptolemy II. I feel like she should have had more interactions with the pilots. Lasse-This guy just won't die. I respect that, but he doesn't really contribute to the plot. Feldt-Some nice screen time, didn't really develop as a character or interact with the main cast much this season. Hooray for aliens from Jupiter in the upcoming movie. Gundam in its long history has never actually done alien races. They were hinted at in Gundam SEED with the whale with wings fossil and there were colonies on Mars in Gundam SEED Destiny Astray Delta (I know, it's long). Should be cool.

It's official: Ganishkazilla can walk.

Considering that the manga should end soon, they could go all the way.

It's taboo to bring up Togashi's work schedule.

Shinji Ikari from Evangelion. He has a giant mech, and all he can do is bitch in moan. Still love the series! -

I really doubt that for some reason. I even expect a second Gundam to come out of Seravee more than that. I just feel like the second pair of arms that stays attached to Seravee must do something. UPDATE: Again with the space clutter crashing down on earth. Every Gundam series! You'd think we'd have found a solution to space debris like meteors at least before we solve the global energy crisis. Also, 00 Raiser learned Shining Finger Sword! Why did it take him so long to I mean there's no drag in space, so why did it take so much effort to turn? Great episode over all though. Also the GN Archer is a variable type mobile suit, looks like the old Guncannon. That pretty much guarantees that the pilot will die in my mind.

That's how I saw 8th MS Team too! 0083 was too slow paced, and I didn't watch enough to get the plot as the time though.

Hajime no Ippo: New Challenger! Just watched the second episode today, wait till you see how Miyata will deal with the "Bloody Cross"! -
No one can dispute the GAR of TTGL. You don't know Hilda enough to give a crap about her, she died on the second episode! Pretty much everything about Android Kikaider is sad.
-
Kinda boring. Submarine warfare is even more boring than space warfare which is boring enough. One of the reasons I found Star Trek boring, battles are limited in their action.
-
I thought Seraphim was kind of ridiculous. It was definitely cool how he used it, but it's even less protected than Nadeelh which had the Trial System. In fact, now that every MS has a GN Drive, the Trial System would be devastating.
-
There's also the fact that while in Exceed, the Gigantic is actively drawing the maximum amount of power from the dimension it channels energy from which is probably required for the Black Hole Cannon. Wouldn't such a huge gravitational distortion be noticeable even if not visible?
-
Hold on there. I don't think the Gigantic changed into the Exceed just because Sho willed it. The foreshadowing and his role in creating the Gigantic make me believe Sho created these abilities of the Gigantic while in the pod with the Navigational Spheres.
-
Obviously it's building up to Griffith vs Ganshzilla, but you don't think watching Zodd slice through Mini-Ganshikas and Grunbeld stomp on them cool? Also, why the hell would he cut to Elfhelm when all hell is breaking loose on the other side of the world? This fight could determine the fate of the Berserk Universe. Who knows what will happen if Ganishzilla is allowed to live, or what would happen if he dies. He's carrying so much evil in him right now, maybe he's still drawing power from the abyss!

Do you remember what Incognito looked like? Filler endings are beyond bad, they are pure evil! Just look at Gantz: Wonderful manga, horrible anime.

DBZ (Come on, admit it) BERSERK (You must watch the anime and read the manga no matter what) Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (Ore Wo Dareda Omote Yagaru!) Yu Yu Hakusho Rurouni Kenshin (HITEN MITSURYUGI RYU...Oro?) Big O (Show Time!) Fullmetal Alchemist (The manga is even better!) Hokuto no Ken (YOU WA SHOCK!!!) Mobile Suit Gundam 8th MS Team Gundam 00 (It's my favorite of Gundam series) Grappler Baki (He beat a 10 foot gorilla to death with his bare-hands...AND THE GORILLA EATS BEARS!) FLCL (What's not to quote?) S-CRY-ED (I just really like it ok!) Android Kikaider (I finally found the soundtrack!) Blade of the Immortal (WHY WON'T ANYONE SUB IT!) Samurai Champloo (Good for its length.) Outlaw Star (S'aright) Trigun the anime was terrible, so was Hellsing though Hellsing Ultimate is great. Soul Eater is annoyingly slow but entertaining, as good as Busou Renkin I'd say. Gundam Seed suffers from androgynous protagonist syndrome. Oh, and Inuyasha is crap.

Louise was an ignorant coddled bitch like the girls on Laguna Beach or the Hills. I'm glad she got a dose of reality. That's why I was so happy to see her role in the second season. But Wang Liu Mei is still a rich whore with nothing better to do, so she messes with the entire world because she finds it boring. At least Louise wasn't interfering in other people's lives.
