    Overrated

    DBZ


    That's it on my Overrated list, basically. I don't understand the hype. Watched thru the whole thing twice, and almost cut my eyes out :P


    Underrated

    Original Dirty Pair
    Silent Mobius
    Azumanga Daioh
    Ranma 1/2
    Detective Conan
    Yu Yu Hakusho (always gets called a DBZ ripoff >:o wth?)
    Slayers
    Project A-ko
    Xenogears is the tragic story of how your whole life can take a crappy turn, just because you happened to see a lady in a wedding dress before her wedding.

    FFXIV Character

    Efes Ephesus (Adamantoise)

    Neon Genesis Evangelion is by far the most overrated anime ever.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Yakitate Japan is really underrated, but that's probaly cuz not much ppl know about it.

    And Overrated is the Dragon Ball series.

    Lol, I actually agree with that to some extent considering someone used it as an excuse to kill his mother….

    Still the best Anime ever though!

    Hmmm:

    Overrated: Gasaraki, .hack//SIGN, Naruto, Full Metal panic (still like it though)

    Underrated: Spriggan, Azumanga daioh. Excel Saga, Card Captor Sakura (english version wasn't THAT bad...), Gundam Wing, Puni Puni Poemi, Galaxy Angel, Kiddy Grade, Metropolis.

    Yeah, Yu Yu Hakusho is good. It's the only anime that I like that's not overraved. The ones I like are DBZ, Tenchi Muyo, Rurouni Kenshin, One Piece, and sometimes Zatch Bell. At least, I think Tenchi Muyo is. I miss it.

    Overated:
    Naruto (Still love it though :P)
    FMP

    Underated:
    Trigun
    Hellsing

    I really don't understand why Naruto keeps going strong, while Trigun and Hellsing died out pretty early. Oh well, such is the life of anime.

    Eh, I got lost in the last episodes of Hellsing. It just kind of went on a whole different tangent and left me wondering what the crap just happened.

    Maybe I should go back and watch it again.
