    Overrated I'd say is Sailor Moon and DBZ. And as much as it wounds my heart to say it, Evangelion is quite overrated as well. Forgive me Eva! I still love you!

    Anyways, a few underrated are Spiral, Tsubasa Resevoir Chronicles, and just about all the other good anime that hasn't been licensed.

    And Yu Yu > DBZ. If you see the Yusuke vs... that other Spirit Detective, then you'll understand why.

    Kuagaro, or however it's spelt?

    I like DBZ better. The new DBZ is owned by Yu Yu, but the older Freeza -Cell era is so much better.

    Overrated: DBZ, Inuyasha
    Underrated: Paranoia Agent (it doesn't seem like many people watch it, probably due to its time slot), Escaflowne.

    Naw, Sensui.

    I liked old DBZ, too, up until the Majin Buu saga. I still like Yu Yu better, though.

    Darth Holm, I DEMAND you give your reasons for calling FLCL overrated, as most reviews give it upper-middle ratings (7/10ish), when anything under 10/10 is underrating it.

    OVERRATED:

    Naruto - it sucks
    Inuyasha - Decent, but fairly "meh"
    Neon Gensis Evangelion - People calling it the "Greatest Anime Ever" make me want to crap my pants, vomit and splew blood from my eyes at the same time.

    UNDERRATED:

    Excel Saga - Why have so many people not heard of this? Almost every comedy anime you see these days owns a huge debt to Excel Saga

    Voices of a Distant Star - Calling this anything less than pure genius is severly underrating it.

    im watching gunXsword, it's pretty underrated right now because its only on ep 4, but it's cool if you are a nerd which i am
    it takes every cliche from every anime/movie ever and tries to mix it all tohgether, it's interesting
    anyway i think it will be big

    Overrated ones are Naruto, Dragon Ball, Inuyasha, and Cowboy Bebop. For me Evangelion is pretty good, does it live up to its hype? Nope...but i still say its pretty damn good.

    I am unsure of this but Bleach might be the overrated one at the moment.

    Underrated:

    Genshiken
    Kojiki no Gash Bell

    My Youtube Page - Full of Capcom vs SNK 2 goodness!
    Check it out Nya~! @.@

    I loved Genshiken man that anime ruled especially the cosplay episode.

    One question? The chick with the black hair on genshiken most likely lived in a southern state if she had compliments of her long hair.

    I am still shocked to this day to know that Excel Saga is so unheard of. Death portrayed in the most hilarious way...every 5 minutes.

    Out of what I've seen of One Piece, it's not bad. But that's me.

    <3's Azumanga Daioh. Like, why the heck not?

    Puni Puni Poemy (a spinoff OVA of Excel Saga) is even better, and even less heard of.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Lol, I actually agree with that to some extent considering someone used it as an excuse to kill his mother….
    Please, do tell! But I agree that its over rated but I still think its brilliant and way better than most anime.
    .hack//SIGN,
    Thats hardly highly rated in the first place. Its just praised for great music, characters, animation and storyline but the storyline is very very slow.
    Underated:......ummm

    Over rated: Sailor Moon and DBZ.
