What anime do you think is the most overrated? Underrated? And why?
♥♦♣♠"Nature cares nothing for our logic, our human logic. She has her own, which we do not realize or acknowledge until we are crushes under it's wheel." ♥♦♣♠
Overrated
Naruto(its a good manga but i can name better ones)
Bleach(I used to be obssessed with it...but this new arc pisses me off its not the same anymore)
Inuyasha(surprisngly people are still head over heels for Inuyasha which I dont understand why)
Its more i can't think of anymore but its more......=______="
Underrated
Fairy Tail(its waay better then all 3 of those)
One Piece(it is popular but its still overshadowed by Bleach and Naruto which is sad because the plot is unique and so are the characters)
Freezing(Good action, not lovey dovey romance but its has it its just not..."overly fangirl or fanboy" and great characters)
High School of the Dead(the realization of how people would act in an actual zombie apocalypse is frightening, and the camaderie of the main characters is just amazing)
Sekirei(GREAT COMEDY,GREACTION,GREAT ROMANCE)
Kodomo No Omcha(Alot of people heard of but dont talk about this anime/manga which sucks because IT HAS THE BEST COMEDY OUT OF ALL THE MANG'S/ANIMES'S I SEEN! And the plot's are diverse and so random and crazy xDDDD but they also have those "soap opera" moments which are very heavy absolutely one of t best animes ever)

I agree~Overrated - High School of the Dead, K-ON!, Haruhi, Hetalia

Overrated: Naruto and Bleach, just because I don't think they're anything special.
Underrated: Pani Poni Dash, Shuffle! and School Days. I chose all of those because I personally think they stand out really well for one reason or another, but nobody I know has ever heard of them. (Best Parody series, great animation and unique (to me) storyline, and amazing ending)
I know right? D: That anime is the deal.Pani Poni Dash

I agree with @Aizen-sama with most of his underrated animes.
Overrated: Full Metal Alchemist(It's just plain stupid, I cannot get into it for the life of me. The story isn't even that compelling, if at all)
Cowboy Bebop(I also can't stand this one, just too boring)
Gurren Lagann(I enjoyed this series, don't get me wrong, but the ending sucked and the story wasnt the greatest thing in the world either, it was ok.)
One Piece(I've tried watching it and not very interesting at all)
Underrated: Sora no Otoshimono(This show is HILARIOUS, and the story is actually pretty good. And the girls in it are all really cute ;3)
Sekirei(Like Aizen-sama stated above very funny, good action, and great romance)
My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute(This is so damn funny, and the romance in it is just great, I'm PRAYING for a season 2)
Seitokai no Ichizon(This is also hilarious, it has so many other anime refernences it like death note for example, the romance is great, and the main character is obessesed with making his harem it makes it even more funny! And the girls are so damn hot in it.)
And also Highschool of the Dead(same reasons as Aizen-sama said. He's right on)
Please don't be offended by this post, this is MY opinion, even though it's obviously mine, I'm just putting this here because of the people that might freak out by seeing the things said in this post. People shouldn't worry too much about one guys opinion, this is just how I feel.
You didn't have to say that it was your opinion, the fact of you saying it should be proof enough. c: Honestly, I don't see why someone would feel offended anyway. Unless they were overwhelmed with the fact someone didn't like their "precious super speshul awesome favorite animu."Please don't be offended by this post, this is MY opinion, even though it's obviously mine, I'm just putting this here because of the people that might freak out by seeing the things said in this post.

Now, before you jump on me for disagreeing with your opinion, I just want to say that these two aren't overrated; rather the opposite, imo.
OreImo was one of the popular shows of its season, and still gets a lot of attention with many people hoping for a sequel (which I'm sure is on the way, given there's several more novels, though I don't doubt it'll be some time). I enjoyed the series, but it does get a bit too much love, I feel, especially when Kirino is such a terrible heroine.
Similarly, HSotD was very popular in its time, with even people I know in person (whom, by the way, are the squeally kind of weaboo who dislike gore and adult themes) raving about it. Granted, I enjoyed aspects of the series (namely the quite cool action and the simply ludicrous breast physics) but overall don't feel it is anywhere near the attention it deserves. Go on several sites and one will see people giving it much more credit than it deserves (namely, calling it a realistic possibility of how people are going to react in a zombie apocalypse (because teenagers can get a hold of guns that easily (no, really (hahaha)))).
If you like these shows it's not business of mine (I merely felt like throwing in my own grievances with the show to strengthen my point), but I just wanted to point out that they're not particularly underrated.
And since I'm making another post, I'm just going to talk about how Texhnolyze needs so much more attention again.
Sorry :P It's just that on other places when I've expressed my opinion people have freaked out and like you said Unless they were overwhelmed with the fact someone didn't like their "precious super speshul awesome favorite animu." I just wanted to be 100 percent sure, since subjects like this can be a little touchy.

No it's fine. I'm not the kind of person to just "jump" on someone. And I see your points. OreImo was one of the most popular of it's season, but it seems that the dicussion of it died down fairly quickly. Which was one of the reasons why I put it up there.
I also agree with your liking to HOTD's cool action and the simply ludicrous breast physics XD Those were terrific. But again I feel as if the discussionof died down quickly. But I have noticed on other site's people praising it and really wanted a season 2.
But to a degree, I agree with your points on how they aren't particularly underrated ^_^

What is this I don't even.....
Tsh Lol I'm just kidding.. I respect your opinion. But Cowboy bebop is one of my all time favorite.
To me, the most overrated anime is naruto. Popular and all over the place.. I still take some time to enjoy the new episodes.
Underrated anime include Hanasaku Iroha, School Rumble, Coyote Ragtime Show, Tenjo Tenge.
....
Naruto, One Piece and Bleach. I dunno why do people watch these. I understand that at the first seasons these shows might fit into somebody's taste, but now it is just silly. 500+ episodes? Really!?
Also, Dragon Ball and Sailor Moon are pretty crappy too but I respect them since these were basically my childhood.
Also, Haruhi....the show is a one big jerk over how cool and hot Haruhi Suzumiya is.
Except she's not.
Underrated? Well, Lucky Star is quite awesome yet many people tend to disagree with this statement

I have to agree with you there. Haruhi isn't my type. I tried to get past episode one but it didn't really catch my interest~Also, Haruhi....the show is a one big jerk over how cool and hot Haruhi Suzumiya is.
Except she's not.

Overrated: Naruto, Bleach, Hetalia, Tsubasa Chronicles.
Underrated: Kyou Kara Ore Wa, Magico, Ghost Hunt.
Overrated: Naruto and Bleach because the stories are starting to get boring and these anime are way to long episode wise.
Underrated: Gungrave (it has a good story of friends and how power can change that friendship)
Fairy Tail
This thread is irrelevant - why?! Because people have their own taste. If I heard that Naruto was SUPER AWESOME, see it and then conclude that it wasn't really that awesome, that doesn't mean it's overrated - it just means that whoever said it was "SUPER AWESOME" likes it more than I do.
Same goes for the "underrated" ones. People have their own opinions - any discussion ITT will confirm that.

People have different opinions from you. Isn't that incredible? Yup.
I don't care how long a series is. Actually a short 11 - 13 episode long anime is more likely to be seen as less quality to me because oftentimes they cut corners everywhere or botch it up altogether to make a much longer manga fit into that short episode range.
500 episodes of One Piece was, for me, way more entertaining than many short series I have watched.

OMG REALLY? People have opinions?? Didn't know that, you philosopher you.This thread is irrelevant - why?! Because people have their own taste.

That's what I'm asking for. Your opinion.

... Did you really not realise I was being sarcastic? Length has no bearings to the quality of a series. If a long series starts out good and gets worse, then it starts out good and gets worse. If a long series starts out bad and gets better, then it starts out bad and gets better. If a long series starts out awesome and remains awesome throughout, then it starts out awesome and remains awesome throughout. Length has no relation to quality, as I have just shown. Ah but see, you have made a fatal error, for people will only have the opinion that I tell them to have.
*gives subjective opinion* For me, overrated would probably have to Bleach- it's not that I dislike it or anything considering I watched the first 200 odd episodes with reasonable obsession... but then it got to the point where it was getting overly repetitive and the filler arcs meant it just wasn't worth the effort of waiting 10 painstaking weeks for the next actual story arc :S Ichigo was dying and reviving way too much too- I don't know how some people can have the patience to watch it sometimes! I know someone will probably say the same about Naruto, but I just read the manga to that now
Underrated I can't honestly think of atm- I'll edit this if I think of one I'd probably say La Corda d'Oro, purely because I couldn't stop watching it and considering I can't find a sub for the second season episodes, would probably register this as underrated to the point of ignoring! Which is a shame, because it has some really good themes I think...
*end of opinion* :P
