why isn't this on the general anime thread?

Since we're ranting about anime, here's my contribution:

I don't understand how some anime can get so repetitive. Last week I was watching this attack on titan, and it couldn't go 5 minutes without a throwing flashback to my face. And to make it worse, they even use the same scenes from 3 episodes ago.

So you end up with only 10 minutes of actual plot and 15 minutes of OP/ED and flashbacks with repetition of the same scenes. This is why I stopped watching most of the seinen I started to watch. Steins gate, although very slow plot-wise, was watchable.

For now I'll just stick to finger rolls and palmtop tigers.

The Titan anime is pretty much Neon Genesis Evengelion set in Berserk setting meeting Dragon Ball Z where you anticipate which character to have their super saiyan mode next.

Watch School Days though, you'll love it!

Anime is not for everyone. I don't know what you like but I can recommend you check out Gintama.


NEO AMSTRONG CYCLONE JET AMSTRONG CANNON!

Gintama is one of the best animes I have ever watched.

Code Geass is definitely not a kid's anime. Given you've only watched the first episode, I'll say that I think that Code geass is one of the animes with one of the stronger plots/stories and character developments in terms of anime.

As a person who read the manga but haven't seen the anime. I think it's terrible but definitely not the worst.

I watched it. Both seasons. I have an informed opinion on this anime.
In short: They spent 25 episodes and still haven't gotten any story done yet. The plot is random and without a purpose. They constantly go around saying "this guy is so awesome for his skills in xyz" and then they try to prove that somehow, but it always ends up being stupid.+ Show Spoiler +
And did they really think killing the main character had any impact? It was obvious that he would be back. None of the other characters was able to carry any plot whatsoever.
It's just repetitive, lacking a real story, and the things that should impress me are just not set up in a way such that they could be impressive.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Code Geass is ok-ish anime, I didn't like it that much. It got popular mostly because the character design was attractive and it has robots and stuff.
It's basically gundam seed type of anime.

rahxephon imo is wayyyyyyy better in every way, proper romance, story line, music etc

attractive character design? do you feel that human beings should have triangles for chins and faces and have abnormally long limbs?

I don't like the over the top animes like bleach and berserker. Making a character too much of a bad ass just makes it annoying. I liked monster but on a second viewing the plot just develops too slow and the characters gasp too much. I know it's weird and it's probably very normal in Japan but it annoys me for some reason.

don't lump bleach and berserk together, Guts earned his badassery.

He is a man made of bread who takes chunks out of his head to give to children to eat. Every child in Japan knows how to draw him

I really feel sorry for the Japanese that they are primarily known for horrible perverted animes and samurai. There are much more interesting things about their culture. I feel sorry for myself that if I say I'm interested in Japan, people will assume I'm interested in horrible perverted anime.

avoid long-running shounen series like bleach and naruto, they are dumb and filled with countless fillers
avoid moe/harem crap, they are superficial and annoying

shows aired on noitaminA are usually good as they are more unique and tend not to contain shows filled with stereotypes
