Prince of Tennis is horrible, I would even go as far as to call the worst sports manga/anime ever.

I mean there are "some" good things about it, like some of the side-characters like Kaido and Inui. But everything else is just so bad.

Ryoma Echizen is a little sh!t, he is enough to make everyone hate the series.

Ugh, i hate that mofo i wouldn't be surprised if he could out sue pre mary sue deconstructed Medaka Kurokami. The best analogy i can make about PoT is that it's like the Air Gear of sports manga, fyi Air Gear sucked.

Yup, I loved Air Gear, so am definitely going to watch Prince of Tennis.

Fyi, Air Gear is insane, yet definitely doesn't take itself seriously. I loved the in-your-face euphoria. (Vulgar) comedy and imaginative crazyness at its best.

The series was decent up until Sora, and Nike's betrayal but the story took a serious nose dive when Barack Obama teamed up with Ikki. There would be whole chapters where dialogue would consist of cliched haiku, and Oh Great has a bad habit of wasting half a chapter to explain his made up physics theories in a shounen manga. Oh Great is a good artist but he wastes too many pages on faux-Shakesperean haikus.(Tenjou Tenge)

Aah, well I'm only talking about the original anime.

The manga is just funny I'd guess (won't read it - though that Barack bit made me laugh). Nothing great nontheless, I wager.

And the second iteration, the OVA anime I skipped after seeing 5 minutes of it. I've somewhere heard that it follows the manga well, so I think I'd totes agree about that being plain bad.

So, you guys have any short and light hearted animes to suggest?

Short as in minutes or count of episodes?

Light-hearted as in casual comedy?

Wow Hunter x Hunder really needs to get a "real" new opening. <_<

Still I have to say my favorite section of the new visuals, was the "You can smile" part timed with Uvo. Nice little tribute to him.B)

Short as in seasons, light hearted as in not as heavy as Darker Than Black, Elfen Lied or Ergo Proxy. It doesn't need to be funny all the time but it does need to come up for air every once in awhile.

^ Well, "not-so-very-light" but rather light-hearted (most of the time): Honey and Clover, Nodame Cantabile, Tatami Galaxy, Kare Kano, personally would vouch for Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (the dub is the only great dub I've found btw). 

And from more recent ones Kokoro Connect, Sakamichi Apollon and maybe even Tsuritama come to mind.

These are about more down-to-earth stuff, mostly. Even if a few of them use symbolistic or fantasy devices.



Though in all I listed the characters do have their emotional difficulties and the stories have depth, so I'd rather not categorize as "light" - but they're not as serious in "life and death" and "fighting" matters as Darker etc. Come to think of it, by this criteria I'd also recommend Katanagatari and Eden of the East, maybe even Clannad, yet there's a bit more dark stuff in those.
From the pure fantasy genre I'd recommend Scrapped Princess. But it does have its share of darkness. 



Light in both depth and emotion (yet good stuff): Birdy the Mighty (pretty cool anime about an alien girl fighting galactic criminals), K-On (high-school girl fun and comedy), Mahou Senshi Louie (comedic fantasy), Sankarea (pretty fun zombie thing, has two or three darker moments though). 

Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, Maria+Holic, Lucky Star, Arakawa Under The Bridge, Ebichu and Exel Saga are the more slapstick humor I can think up at the moment.

Other comedies I'm editing in here: Azumanga Daioh, Full Metal Panic!, Binbougami ga!, Great Teacher Onizuka (43 eps).

If you were to take on longer-spanning ones, I'd of course recommend the original Dragon Ball (pre-Z, in Japanese), and Gintama.

I'll certainly think of more later on.

Soul Eater
Black Butler
Desert Punk
Haruka and the Magic Mirror
Cowboy Bebop
Full Metal Alchemist

Soul Eater is mostly just silliness. Black Butler is too, but season two gets pretty dark, still great though.

The fan service in Desert Punk would make Raging_Bull sick, though she is so very fond of those High School of the Dead pics... so maybe not. :whistle:

The show is indeed ridiculous. I used to think Dead or Alive's breast physics were odd but High School of the Dead definitely takes the cake with its animation.

Why do we even talk about HOTD? Like, no one here even likes it. It's so counter-productive.

So is your face but that is another story for another time.

I'm currently watchin D. Gray-Man. It's kind of a mixed bag. The plot kind of sucks but the art style and characters are freaking awesome. It also has a really nice opening.

Yeah, we should be talking about good series or making fun of really bad ones.

I hate talking about bland sh!t.

D. Gray-Man's manga is much better than the anime, the art style has always been cool.
