Black Lagoon is rather good, creepy pony lady. You might want to look into outlaw star, or angelicl ayer.

Hating it with modest passion.Too large a doze of Japanese " super cool" is a huge turn off for me. Pretty boys, boobies bigger than my head, spiky hair, big swords..no no no. Kill it with fire.

The only anime I ever liked was Dragon Ball Z, or Samurai Jack if you consider that an anime.

 Not hate. Hate's too strong of a word. I don't think I'm more intelligent than the people that like anime, but I'm just want to know if there's anybody else who doesn't like anime. 

Why do I dislike anime? I always found it melodramatic. That, and I can't stand the filler. I don't like it when fights last for more than one episode. Plus, some of the hardcore fans that act like anime is a gift from God kind of scare me. 


Yeah I'm with you.  To hate it would say I care one way or the other.  I've had people try to get me into it and it just doens't work.

Most anime put out is cliche, but that can be said about a lot of videogames, too. Personally, I love anime. Some of my favourites are Evangelion, Geass and Lupin III. I think it's an acquired taste. Once you understand that it will hardly ever be realistic, you can settle in quite nicely.

Based on your objections to anime, Capt., I think you should try out some of the shows mentioned in this thread. I'll add one more - Texhnolyze.

I never liked that artstyle in those jrpgs. Just seeing that would make me never want to play those games.

I dislike whole rafts of it because the stories don't speak to me, lose something in translation


I can understand the original language and I still don't get it

Never really found the appeal of it. I don't care if you watch it though, unless you're a creepy die-hard want-to-be-Japanese person.

There's some I like, but most most I either don't like or it doesn't catch my interest. Kind of like every other entertainment medium on the planet.

It's hard to find ones I like, but when I do they're absolute gems.

I don't hate anime, it just doesn't interest me.

People need to remember that anime runs the entire gamut of genres. Everything from drama to comedy, to sci-fi and fantasy and yes, some porn. As such, it's worth looking into for any film buff, and worth looking past the fact no anime studios get Disney budgets for their productions. Yet they still do amazing things.

No film ever has even brought me close to tears. Grave of the Fireflies and the end of Gunslinger Girl had me on the verge.

Also if you're into horror and/or vampires Blood+ might be worth checking out.
Fate/Stay Night is another excellent one which is magic/supernatural based.

Even though I like anime, just like everyone else I have my dislikes, mainly DBZ, Gundam(and any retro-style blocky mecha anime),Most Shounen anime(except Naruto) and Neon Genesis:Evangellion(too angsty and confusing although I hear that the new movies are much better)

I have to agree with you on this one!

Grave of the Fireflies had me bawling my eyes out!

It is the saddest movie ever made, beats Schindler's List, Pixar movies or any other live action film hands down.

This is my feeling as well.  Although I would extend that to anime and manga as well.  Really the only thing that sets anime apart from other animation is the art style, since they're supposedly so varied in content.

I just don't like the huge eyes, the odd lip-syncing, the over exaggerated body parts (hair, boobs, etc) and what little I've seen of some of the stories.  So yeah, the art style is about the only reason that makes sense to dislike the entire genre, since it is all the genre has in common universally.

Saying that there aren't any unique shows or content is not a valid argument as pretty much every medium in entertainment has exhausted all possibilites in creativity(give or take)

 Everyone who dislikes anime should try out this series, it might actually change your opinion on anime.

Seriously, the narrative and aesthetics in Cowboy Bebop are AMAZING!
