Love/Hate relationships with anime

[MoistCloyster]

Anime you both love and hate at the same time

Bleach/Naruto/One Piece - being too long. Too much filler. But epic characters and storyline.

I love Bleach and One Piece but I haven't watched all episodes, it's just too daunting, I can't even begin to comprehend the lengths of the manga!

Bleach

Mermaid Forest... I can never finish it.

I'd agree with Bleach. On one hand, there were a lot of characters I loved, but on the other, there were a large number of villains whose personality was little more than "I am far too powerful to lose... oh shit, how did I lose!?". Seriously, mix it up a bit more. People so OP that they don't even consider the possibility of being beaten in a fight (or in Aizen's case, don't consider the possibility of being beaten by anyone other than Yamamoto) are cool if you have one or two, but half the cast is stretching it a bit.

Haven't forgiven Naruto for killing Neji off.

I don't know if this counts but I love to hate SAO.

Oreimo. I liked the characters, the opening theme, the voice-acting and I can admit it had some good comedy moments but I will never be NOT disappointed in the ending. (I rooted for you Kuroneko!)

Ranma 1/2 - Rather relaxing anime to pick up and watch a few episodes, but near every episode feels the same as the last. :/
Shirobako - Really love the idea, but the characters and story fail to keep my interest.

Sure why not.

Saw this vid and thought of you:

Dragonball Super. Bad Animation, some very bad story ideas and terrible character design. Really shines though when it is a slice of life episode (Like the return of Great Saiyaman has been fantastic) and adding limits to characters like Goku & Vegeta, such as never actually overcoming Beerus and the gods.

Sword Art Online - I love it...but except for Alfheim it wasn't that great...also Kirito and Asuna make me want to throw up lol

DragonBall GT - Good ideas for the sagas...but executed really badly...also everyone except Goku was useless...

That's all I can think of right now

DragonBall Goku Time

That's basically what it should have been called

Haha. One of the things I actually really like about SAO was that despite having all these girls around who liked him (because what kind of generic shonen protagonist would he be without that?) there was never any doubt that he was totally devoted to Asuna.

Since this is the Love/Hate thread, I guess I should mention one thing I didn't like, now...

"Death Gun"
When I first heard that name, I thought the guy was supposed to be some kind of comic relief villain, given that his name is about as redundant as, say, "Speed of Sound Sonic"... but no one ever mentioned it, as opposed to Genos routinely commenting on Sonic's name whenever he shows up in OPM... which made me think that maybe SAO's writer didn't actually realise how dumb that sounded?

It's not a particularly major complaint, I know, but there wasn't really much I outright disliked about SAO.
