Who is the Anime character you hate the most, Mine would have to be Ash or Naruto. both are equally annoying, "believe it!" I heard the Japanese version was alot better, now for ash. he is almost like Naruto, wanting to become a Pokemon master "I'm going to be come a Pokemon master" "going to be the hokage" sound the same?   

...Phail.

I'm going to go ahead and vote for "most of them"

Dude, Ash was about 151 different kinds of awesome.

And he stayed that way until the Pokemon count surpassed the number of ways he was awesome.

Any character from Fruits Basket or Inuyasha.

Edit: The people in Final Fantasy: Unlimited also suck.

Dude, Ash was about 151 different kinds of awesome.

Its any one's Opinion, I just find him very annoying.

It depends on which version of Ash you're looking at.

Naruto. I hate his show multiple reasons. Especially the crap portrayal of everything they think has to do with ninjas. Beyond that like everything else in that show is stupid and Naruto is the most annoying kid in the show, so OBVIOUSLY he has to be the title character.

Ash was good until they butchered his show by making it not based completely on the games.

I don't really watch anime anymore anyway an an an.

It depends on which version of Ash you're looking at.

4kids version.

Dunno. Probably all of the Sonic X characters in 4Kid's dubs because they're not the same as Sega's.

4kids version.

Pretty sure nobody watches the Japanese version of the show.

I don't follow anything about anime, so all I know is that 4kids ruins things.

I'm talking about the original Ash from when the series first started, when there were still only 151 Pokemon. I thought I made that clear. As in, after the first "season", everything went to hell.

I personally don't like much anime, but every once in a while something will catch my attention. Evangelion was a fun watch, but still "blargh" at most parts, especially the resolution. FLCL was interesting, but very much TOO much. Digimon was just right... for kids. DBZ was actually pretty cool.

I stick with American stuff now.

I agree with ASR on the Ash stuff, that was my point as well.

I haven't kept up with Pokemon either ever since season 1 finished.

I haven't touched Pokemon since the days of Gold and Silver.

Last time I saw it, was on the bus last thursday where my friend was battling some random kid with Diamond and Pearl. My friend had lv.30ish PokeMon going against lv.70ish PokeMon.

I hollered "You're about to get boned!", and then went back to my business.

Thats what I meant really, and I'm more of a Digimon fan, Digimon can talk, have better transformations, Pokemon can't do that. They just have 3 or 4 forms of transformations and they can't talk.

Meeeowth, you're wrong.

Mewtwo, anyone?

... well, technically, he didn't talk.

Meeeowth, you're wrong.

Mewtwo, anyone?

... well, technically, he didn't talk.

I don't keep up with pokemon so I didn't know that.

2nd episode, son, don't even try and play like that.

That's like saying "I didn't know Sonic collected rings".

I'm so sick of people comparing the two. They're actually a lot more different than people think. It's not worth comparing them.

Besides, ##### like DNA Digivolution and Armor Digivolution just to add more variations of digivolving were incredibly stupid.


Edit: If you didn't know about Pokemon and didn't watch it, you can't say "it's like this" or "it's like that" and compare it to other stuff...

We're talking about the show though.

Exactly. I'm expressing how much I don't care for PokeMon anymore.

I stopped watching around the Gold/Silver era and now I've stopped with the whole franchise now.

2nd episode, son, don't even try and play like that.

Hmm, I most have forgot about it. I haven't played Pokemon sense I beat my emerald version. Also I hate double (fat bloby form) from MMX4, I know its not an anime (not an anime show, buts its still anime) But the cutsenses where anime.

It's not anime just because it has a similar art style. But yes the cutscenes were anime.

I didn't realize they really went into Gold/Silver other than just having those new Pokemon in it.

I tend to intergrate pokemon stuff with digimon.

Example:  Angemon:  Vaccine/Psycic/Flying Ability: Forworn, Complementary

I didn't realize they really went into Gold/Silver other than just having those new Pokemon in it.

Well, Ash still went to the same towns in the game and collected the same badges.

But WTF at the Orange Island bits. srsly

Orange Island was the end of it for me. They just made up places and I wasn't having it.

Johto is when I stopped watching, mainly because I had moved on to other shows like Dragon Ball Z and Gundam Wing. I still tune in every once in a while if I'm bored.

I didn't realize they really went into Gold/Silver other than just having those new Pokemon in it.

These another thing I don't like about Pokemon, theres to much of them. Every new game there at least 150 added. I remember when Gold and silver came out, ever one was like OMG new Pokemon, then ruby and sapphire that killed it for me. I like emerald because its more challenging. what i'm saying there to much Pokemon, some one need to kill off the games and show.

There's like two pokemon shows now. Kind of like the two Yu-Gi-Ohs.

Yu-Gi-Ohs! It's crap anime, FOR BREAKFAST!

They retconned The Orange Islands in FireRed and LeafGreen.  I think.

Orange Islands never happened in the original games. Unless you mean they retconned them INTO the games.

Actually G/S only added 100, not 150. And they think up new Digimon all the time... And then two Digimon evolve together into one. Or they both evolve into two different ones that then evolve together into one and so on.

Yu-Gi-Ohs! It's crap anime, FOR BREAKFAST!

I try to defend the show, but 4Kids doesn't help.

GX is loaded though.

I can't stand Mol-de-toh it is very boring, playing a kids card game to save the word. creepy.

I didn't care about that, really. It was just the fact that it was a game I could get into, and had a decent storyline.

Battle City was it's peak. After that, they started #####ing the pooch.

EDIT: More YGO ranting I want to add. It should have been:

Duelist Kingdom > Battle City > Save the world, go back in time into Egypt, explain what happened, and end it.

And GX should've STRICTLY been a random duel show to keep the franchise running, but that's just me.

Oh, but GX had to use a storyline, and not just any story. They were going to do the whole thing all over again. Seen it. Yawn. Not to mention I'm done seeing duels with souls ante'd up.

Ash is dumb. "OH HEY, NOW I RAISED MY POKEMON TO BE ÜBER POWERFUL. TIME TO TRADE THEM IN FOR SUCKY ONES."

Let's see... Pretty much every single "YAOIBISHONEN" character that is an absolute badass for no other reason than he looks like a girl.

I have seen all of the first season, I didn't like it. what was up with that kids hair, who did he think he was? Goku, lol?

I hate TK from Digimon, stupid #####ing hat >:[

lol?

No.

Oh and Matt from Digimon, I hated that kid.

Goku > Yugi, in just about every aspect. I didn't mind the hair though. It was new and unique to me, so I welcomed it.

All Yugi cosplayers should be shot though.

Yugi cosplayers

Thats just scary.

I don't really like that guy that much, he is kinda annoying. But I hate talking about people behind there backs. so.... I hate code leyco (how ever you spell it, no wait I'm probely a lecture on spelling again  ::) )

Code Lyoko.

Yeeeeah, I watched it for five seconds, then changed the channel.

I heard it was a french anime. Is that really true?

Probably some made up name by the Canadians to try to appeal to the young anime viewers.

canda can make anime? also why are there heads so big in it too? I mean I could fly an air plane on there head's in code lyoco.

Canada*

and yeah, I think it's from Montreal(could be wrong) or somewhere. Like I said, most kids are interested in anime, so a lot of countries try to appeal to the kids by making cartoons with anime art styles.

Which equals massive phail.

There's been a lot of Canime recently.

A lot of it being crap too.

Was there ever a succuful anime that what not from japan? ???  (spell checker is not working on my computer because my computer is Gieh (yes I spelt gay but ina funnier way) )

I don't recall ever seeing a successful Canime.

Whats another anime I hate, cased closed. The anime style is horried and its like a anime CSI. that means its boring to watch. 

Detective Conan is actually a pretty good anime, never got into it, I think I watched maybe one episode. But it was actually a really successful anime, since it was made way back when.


So really, CSI is like Conan..

I don't recall ever seeing a successful Canime.

CyberSix wasn't successful.

But it's one of the best Canime I've ever seen. I wanted to read the comics but they're in a different language.

It makes me wonder why they would create a show based off of a very dark comic book, though. One that is in Spanish no less.

Whats Cybersix?

Yeah, it's a French cartoon. And everyone has HUGE foreheads.

You missed page 2, Lunche.

Also, CyberSix is awesome. That's what it is.

Right.

There is no such thing as anime that isn't from Japan. Anime is a specific term for Japanese animation. An American show that uses a similar art style is not anime.

Code Lyoko is from France. Cybersix is originally from Argentina in comic book format and was in Spanish. It was PRODUCED as a TV cartoon in Canada. Neither of those show are anime, neither even resemble anime, and neither are "from" Canada.

Canime is not a real term and I've never heard it before today.

Also, if you think Canada never made any good cartoons you're an ingnorant fool because even  studios in MY city do most of the contracted studio work for some of the best producers like Nelvana. Not to mention that Nelvana (Clone High and about a million other gems) and Mainframe Entertainment (ReBoot, Beast Wars, etc.) are completely Canadian.

You know what, I'm not gonna bother trying to list this crap. If you take ten seconds to look up what you guys are talking about before flapping your lips about you might have come across this short list (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Canadian_animated_television_series) of some Canadian animation work.

The moral of the story is: Don't tell an animator this or that about animation. Especially not THIS one.

I never said all Canadian animation sucks. And I never called any show an anime that wasn't from Japan.

I know I should have been a little clear on this, but when I used the term Canime (Canadian Anime) I meant shows made in Canada that look similar to that similar Japanese art style that is in about a billion anime. Shows like Spider Riders and Di-Gata Defenders and other crap like that.

I'm fully aware that ReBoot and Clone High were made in Canada. Like I said above, I never said all Canadian animation sucks, in fact I enjoy most shows made by Nelvana.

I don't know why I used the term Canime for CyberSix but that show was made Japanese people directed by Canadians so I don't know if that would be an anime or cartoon. Either way, I still don't know why I called it a Canime.

I know no one was saying Canadian animation sucked, but since there's no such thing as anime that isn't from Japan it makes saying that none of the Canadian "anime" shows are any good a whole thing.

I know what Canime means, I just think it's kind of dumb.

Besides that. I wasn't speaking to you specifically, I was talking to the whole thread so don't take it personally.

OK, I was just making some things clear.

Funny thing about the word Anime, it was actually coined by the french, and the Japanese use it to describe ANYTHING animated. Tom and Jerry was at the top of the list of some survey they did a few years ago, asking the people what their favorite anime was.

How do I know these things?

Also, you Canucks (In a Joint venture with those filthy frogs) created Nighthood, right? That was a good show.

That is true, about the anime as a term. But currently, it's used to describe animation out of Japan. In the industry at least.

Didn't otherwise.

Thanks for pointing things out, Mike. Thought I'd have to. And Naruto sucks. Detective Conan is actually pretty cool.

Thanks for pointing things out, Mike. Thought I'd have to. And Naruto sucks. Detective Conan is actually pretty cool.

You could say if you're a gfan of the anime, the first time I watched it I was thinking why did they turn him in to a kid?

They DID lose track of these Man in Black guys and the real plot. The good side of it is being able to watch almost any episode without context of the other.

Detective Conan sucks for even attempting to introduce any kind of plot that depends on it actually getting solved - ie Mr. Kudo reversing the effects of the drug that made him a kid again.  The format of the show, backed up by the fact it's been going for like 15 years, doesn't lend to a plot detail that demands to be advanced and eventually solved, because as soon as he grows old again the series is over.  So that "over arching" plot of him getting back to normal is spread out over 600 some epps of random cases which waters it down to the point there IS no point in trying to have such an over arching plot.

... anyway.

Worst character EVER in an anime is Shinji from Eva.  Most worthless character ever.  Absolutely miserable person, no character development at all, no redeeming qualities.  Comming in a close second is Nia from Nia under 7.  Just like Shinji except more in your face waste of life and more complete disregard for any other being.

I'm not far in NieA_7 but if nothing changes with NieA's character then I know exactly what Rez is talking about.

Worst character EVER in an anime is Shinji from Eva.  Most worthless character ever.  Absolutely miserable person, no character development at all, no redeeming qualities. 

#####ing seconded.

I'd love to see the entire series like that. Maybe then everyone wouldn't have #####ing died.

While the swearing isn't MMM material, that's cool.

I'm probably going to use "I'll see you #####ers after I save the world." in real life soon.

Ahaha, that's brilliant. I loved Eva and it's one of the only animes I enjoyed but Shinji pissed me off every time he had a chance to do something right but didn't.

Which was a lot.

(http://www.therazor.org/oldroot/Spring03/photos/hamtaro.JPG)

AHHHHH!!!!!!

I don't care if its not really an anime.

I hate it so #####ing much.

Hamtaro IS anime, and on that subject.

Ebichu > Hamtaro

Hamtaro had an addictive but crap theme song. And the rest was the same old crap.

God damn it, that #####ing song.

Everytime I see that hamster, it gets stuck in my head.

No it was just the worst anime ever.

What and who are you saying "no" to?

Naruto.
Hate him with a passion beyond that of a 6th grader hating his teacher for taking away his gameboy while he was on the 1,000th floor tower and didn't save since he entered it.

Well that kid is a dumbass for not saving often.

Pretty much every single character from Naruto... I can't stand that anime. I'd rather watch that #####ing hamster all day than watch one second of Naruto.

Pretty much every single character from Naruto... I can't stand that anime. I'd rather watch that #####ing hamster all day than watch one second of Naruto.

Believe it.

I hate Mello and Near. L was a much better character than those two losers.

Also, did anyone realize that Light's voice actor is the same as MegaMan's in NT Warrior?

(Death Note, btw)

L was the only worthwhile character in Death Note.  The fact he should have beaten Kira at least 3 or 4 times but couldn't because it would have ended the series is bad writing.

BUT HE'LL USE NINJUTSU

And then die.

Naruto would be the bee's knees if they'd kill Naruto, Sauske and Sakura and make Lee, Shikamarou and Hinita the main characters.

Alright, I actually like Naruto, but not quite all of it. Only the books. The American voiced anime is ####ing worthless. I don't even like Naruto in the books, he gets all emotional and stuff. The rest is good though. Some of the other characters are portrayed really well and the series at times can have a really dark side. Like Gaara compressing people to death in sand, or Pain who can seal peoples souls. That is the part I like.

You're joking, right?  The art in the Manga is a step above a kindergardner.

I suppose it's just his style, I've seen way better than it, but I've also seen much much worse. But then again I never remarked on the artwork, just some of the character profiles.

"Just his style" is never an excuse for #####ty art. And it not being the worst doesn't make it OK.

Hunter x Hunter and Naruto have "art" that is embarrassingly bad.  I know everything can't look as good as Berserk, but it should look like you did more than squiggle your pen in circles for ultimate attacks...

.

Happy kaboom.

Ziggy boogy doog.

Aw bu-- *world explodes*

My least favorite anime character is Lisa Simpson

I dislike Eliza more.

(Note: It took me way too long to find out the names of the rival Bart and Lisa.)

Shut your face.
Shin-chan is comedy gold.

Oh. I also have no idea what my least favorite anime character is.
I have trouble remembering anything I dislike.

<3 Shin-Chan.

</3 Poop Genie.

I hate almost all anime, the only exception being Futurama.

...Oh wait, not that kind of anime? Um, then I guess I can watch Death Note once in a while whenever I can freaking find it.

Shin Chan is ace. I wish I could find the older dub somewhere on the net.

Somewhere I have a dusty Crayon Shin Chan manga that I bought in high school. I remember it being good.

Same. I really haven't seen the cartoon, but I'm guessing it's about as decent a conversion from 4-panel to cartoon as Azumanga Daioh was.

Ash is one of my favorite anime characters, you obviously have no idea what you're saying. But I can agree that Naruto is annoying; his English voice actor is terrible. As in all animes.

Ash is one of my favorite anime characters, you obviously have no idea what you're saying. But I can agree that Naruto is annoying; his English voice actor is terrible. As in all animes.

The Pokemon cartoon sucks in all languages.

Or rather, it was good for like the first 13 episodes.

The games are awesome.

The show sucks.

They keep saying how much he's improved through out the whole series, and how awesome he is, but he's still doing ##### the same since the beginning!

And he keeps switching out his high level badasses (Squirtle and Bulbasaur and Charizard) for these #####ty low level mother #####ers.

And he almost NEVER evolves any of his Pokemon!

And his hair is stupid.

Brock should have been the main character.

He should've died on the S. S. Anne.

... Or whatever the ship name they gave it in the anime.

I don't watch enough anime to have a least favorite. Juri in Utena does have the most ridiculous design I've ever seen in anime, so perhaps she counts:

(http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/8755/jurixw7.jpg)

Her hair is made out of chopped up carrots.
... still no idea what my least favorite anime character is.

Man, why is this so hard?

I dislike all of the characters from Elfen Lied.

Especially the one that kills people for no reason.

The guy with blue hair and glasses from Digimon! Joe!

I #####ING HATE JAKE.

How can you hate anyone from the first incarnation of Digimon?

Also I don't see what's so riduculous about that girl from Utena's design. That hair is probably just poorly drawn ringlets, which people have in real life. At least it's not outlandish anime hair.

Does she maybe have big giant anime boobs like that hilarious girl Naga in Slayers who has like the best laugh?

I'm sure someone would say that maybe he's trying to give his lower level weakling nerd Pokemon exp (liek in teh gaem!1) but he never puts them away and puts the badass big three back in!

The show basically ended when he gave away his Butterfree and tied a #####ing ribbon around it. We weren't saying goodbye to Butterfree, we were saying goodbye to the show, really. And deep down, I knew we'd never see that Butterfree again.

Now, if I'm wrong and that happened BEFORE he met the Squirtle Squad, or had that stint where Charmander (or was it his Charmeleon?) almost died in the rain, or when Pikachu fought Raichu, then the series didn't end there. But really, yeah, it was only good for like the first stuff.

Mike, of course I love Joe, but as a kid I remember always thinking "MAN, THAAAT GUY."

OK good.

I always hated Matt.

I hated TK in the second season. Him and Matt, their whole family is no good. Except maybe their dad, I totally remember him being like Snake or somethin' in the first season..

I quite like her laugh, actually. And the character is funny in general. I pretty much like all the characters in it, from what I've seen.

Also yea, Love Hina is great.

Ha, I was always too afraid to buy Love Hina manga since the covers were pretty... questionable. I read a lot of them, though, and liked them, when I was in that phase.

I don't really care for the manga much. The anime was awesome. I have the first manga 'cause someone got it for my birthday back in the day, but it's.. Meh. Like that whole scene where they're close on the bus/train from Tokyo U? That was useless junk to over-add oooooh love interest, and that scene was gone from the anime (in which they keep the romance stuff to a perfect level instead of "omglovelovelovelovequestionso mglove" eyerape).

I read the whole of the comic long before I saw the show.
On some points, I like the cartoon better. It does a great job with the animation, and it's pretty much like watching colorized versions of the comics in motion.

But I wish they had actually finished things off with the marriage. The cartoon just has no closure to it (even the movies).

Unless I've missed something.

You haven't. The Winter and Spring/Summer specials were just about getting them finally together, and then Love Hina Again really did nothing to seal up an actual ending.

That part is only about 3/4 the way through the original story if I recall.

I think you're right. I couldn't really get into the manga enough to actually read through it all, and even though I could read them all for free now I more than likely won't so I'll take your word for it.

We could also check Wikipedia, but I can't work up the care for it.

I watched most of the anime much after I read most of what manga volumes I could read.

I never saw that much of the actual Ranma 1/2 anime, but the manga was great.

I think Ranma 1/2 is the only manga I would ever really go back and re-read.

I loved the Ranma 1/2 anime, and the bit of the manga I read. I was young and very new to anime and borrowed it from a friend, but I think I could still go back and watch it.

Last summer I rewatched a bit of Love Hina aswell, just 'cause.

I've watched Serial Experiments Lain so many times I probably understand it better than most people, which is a bit of a feat I guess.

Never cared to watch that, and I've never had the heart to crack in to anything as long as Ranma 1/2.

Although it's tempting.

I doubt I ever finished it, but I got far.

Yes, it's French.

Marumaro from Blue Dragon. I hate him with a passion.
I want to rip off his arm and beat him to death with it.

When I say this I am mostly referring to the one from the game, considering I only watched about five minutes of the anime before I decided it was ####. None the less, though, my opinion remains the same for both.

If anyone has watched the show Grenadier, I hate the main character... More than anything in the universe... The whole anime is #####ed up! I've watched bits and pieces of it cause my friend loves it and just HAVE to show me everything he thinks is cool about it... IT'S JUST WRONG!!! WRONG!!

I don't remember watching Grenadier.

Unless it's the one with that girl with the bullets in her bust.

Sailor moon meets... horrible... trigun... ripoff?

I HAT Grenadier.

It's stuip.

I don't remember watching Grenadier.

Unless it's the one with that girl with the bullets in her bust.

That's the one... The creators of that anime really does spend a lot of effort emphasizing her boobs.

I think the only person to ever really pull off packing boob heat was Tank Girl.

TANK GIIIIIIRRRRL!

Tank Girl #####ing rocks.

Granted, this is from the comic standpoint, and I've never seen the movie.


I've also forgotten much from the comic, as I haven't read any in over six years. D:


... Anyone know where I can find them anymore?

Well, they still make Tank Girl comics. And there are trades at my store, so I'm sure they wouldn't be hard to find. And the movie is wicked, I think. I mean, Jet is in it too!
