Overrated Anime


Girltchi

Recommended Posts

I don't agree that SAO as a whole is overrated, but parts of it certainly are. The first arc of season 1 (eps 1-14) are great, the rest not so. Two of the movies; Aria of Sleepless Night, and Aria of Deep Night are very good, while Ordinal Scale is OK.

To my mind one of the most overrated anime is Evangelion, when if first came out it was a pretty ground breaking series, but they made the storyline far too complex and convoluted, bodged the final two episodes and then spent years issuing new movies to try and sort out the mess.

i fully agree. i saw the high scores and tried to watch it twice. Couldnt finish it

I made it through the first season despite being a slog because people kept insisting “it gets really good”. I won’t be wasting any more time on it despite getting a 2nd season.

I think BNHA is overrated but I love it so I don’t care.

It’s definitely had it’s ups & downs. Really enjoyed the first 2 1/2 seasons & season 7. The rest have been lacking to some degree IMO & glad they’re finally getting ready to wrap it up. Been watching the spin-off series Vigilantes, but it’s just alright. As far as the movies, thought Heroes Rising was excellent, but others are meh.

I am impressed you could finish the whole season. Btw if you like food fantasy shows. I liked the shows 'restaurant to another world' and 'Campfire cooking in another world'

I like Rurouni Kenhin till Shishio Makoto😊 some disliked! They liked Sword of the Stranger and Samurai Champloo more than Rurouni Kenshin like my friend! 

Edit: I forgot to mention Afro Samurai, I watched these anime but Rurouni Kenshin gave me a better story and thrill😊

Attack on Titan comes to mind immediately. Yes, it got insane hype and some fans act like it's flawless, but I still enjoy it despite its pacing issues in certain seasons and some of the convoluted plot developments later on. The animation quality, especially in the action sequences, and Eren's character evolution keep me coming back even though I completely understand why many consider it overrated.

BNHA is one the new vigilantes is well deserving of the hype so far but for a lot of BNH it is slow and the anime is rather slow at times. 

Possibly the greatest anime of all time

Don’t sweat it, I’m the clearly the one in the minority on the matter. It is what it is.

I wasn’t impressed with season 1, but season 2 seemed a significant improvement & am kinda hyped for a continuation. I Haven’t read the webcomic, so can’t really compare.

Lots of people call azumanga daioh overrated mostly cause lots of its "fans" have never watched it and are insufferable people who always say osaka is them or something. But genuinly that is on my top 3 animes. It's the first anime to ever make me laugh and I love the animation and everything. But tbf most of the people like I said just called it overrated cause of how some of the "fans" behave
