Agreed. Nichijou started off great but then it became so cliche.
Nichijou Disappointing?
Fuck you Pollsters
yeah mostly they already read the manga.
so they already lose interest of it, since the manga and the anime is a lot differences
hmmmmm 8 out of 10 really like. 2. and 8. I just haven't watched yet.
i think Steins;Gate is okay, but i prefer the game version
>1. Nichijou
Well, that contradicts every opinion I heard and read about this show so far. How's that?
the voters woke with the wrong foot that day
This list is a piece of shit, that's how.
Or simply they want every "slice of life/school/comedy" to be a new K-On.
2ch is mostly trolls, that's why
Looks like 10.000`s of drivel spreaders have been active.
Actually, only about 6000 so far...but that's far too many.
Nichijou is Azumanga Daioh on shrooms. How can anyone NOT love that? Especially considering that slice-of-life crap is popular since the advent of K-ON.
I guess that makes me cool for liking slice of life before it was popular! :P
I started liking it at Lucky Star.
hipster, show dat pride
Which makes me cooler I guess since I started liking it since Azumanga Daioh O~o.
I liked it at Doki Doki School hours
I think Nichijou is funny but I didn't read initial expectations or the story itself so I technically could not rate it since I had no expectations for it to live up to.
Doesn't matter as long as you enjoy it.
Agreed, even if I expected more it can still be better than some where I already thought the show was retarded.
Ditto!
who knows, its true this list pretty much directly contradicts what i've read to be the overwhelming opinion.
Nichijou (maybe KyoAni doesn't have as much to worry about after all), Steins;Gate, and Denpa specifically have been making pretty good impressions everywhere but this list.
and Dog Days and A Channel have their fanbases already.
one does suspect whoever compiled this list may have exercised some selection bias, or the site running the poll (which i note isn't exactly pulling huge vote numbers, suggesting this isn't exactly a heavily populated site or specific poll) inherently has a skewed population, in order to generate such a contrarian list.
Yes, sample size, sample selection, and who creates and organizes the poll are all important aspects to consider when weighing polls.
I thought Nichijou was alright, if a little unfocused at times. and despite the massive censorship and short run times, i really like 30-sai. It'll probably be better once it comes to DVD.
I wonder if they expected another K-ON. Certainly they'd be disappointed flat out.
Haters votes more than supporters of shows. That's why some "neutral" characters always wins popularity polls.
this.
i love the show and thinks it's funny most of the time.
and it has nano, which definitely is a big plus
Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko
Yeaa i agree =/... well i was expecting something better
2. 30-sai no Hoken Taiiku
3. DOG DAYS
the only disappointing shows on that list IMO
Damn, someone has a brain. Thank you good sir.
That aside, I expect Ano Hana and Hanasaku Iroha to make the Best-of-Season list.
Hanasuka Iroha is certainly the best so far for me, and dat Anaru probably second.
That's a sure gimme
wow so they actually love iroha and ano hana
Yeah, Hanasaku and Ano hana really rulez!! hope they won't messed these shows up...
(like they did with last episode of yumekui merry XD)
Well, Hanasuka Iroha placed #11 on this list, while Ano Hana placed #16. No wonder anime is dying.
That practically puts Ano Hana in the top 5...
A top 10 list is too large.
:/
Seriously with a top 10 list everything will hit the list.
Mainly because everything has been terrible for the last 2 seasons. I don't even really care to try and watch most of these.
Interestingly, I don't see any of the newer hentais on the lowest-10 list. So I guess these animes are worse than hentais, huh?
You're absolutely right, THIS is why the anime industry is dying: stupid otakus who complain too much.
You may have escaped the imperfection of the real world, but now you're finding fault in an almost-ideal fantasy one?
http://anime.biglobe.ne.jp/userranking/title/5283/ according to this, Ano Hana in top 16, not 5.
They made Madoka, they can die now.
Yeah its sad to see Quality Shows like those being rated so low.
After the ban ishihara what more you guys expect?
Going forward at least 80 % will be neutered!!
Good dont need pantsu and other shit . This ban is only for fapping otaku .
oooohhhhh dis list just sux!
Perhaps japanese just don't have any taste.
Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko is awesome, and they still prefer some shit like Softenni. It's unbelievable.
Nichijou isn't that bad too (at very least compared to most of this list), but it's true that eps 3 and 4 weren't really epic.
Anyway, glad to not see Ano Hana here, I love this one.
Don't you start talking about "taste"! It's entirely subjective and a waste of time discussing.
#11 and #16 are pretty low for this kind of list, which of course still rank those two as the non/less disappointing shows of the season.. (unless they include other oblivious anime).
I think Hanasaku Iroha is the best so far, I don't see why it is so high on a bad list.
Why is Hen Zemi on the list?
Why is A Channel on the list? Isn't it a good substitute till K-ON comes out?
Why is 30-sai no Hoken Taiiku? I can't stop laughing at that!!!
Why is Nichijou on the list? Books > movies, manga > anime, yet it shouldn't downrank any anime based on manga...
Exactly. This list is completely unreasonable. Who were the 2029 people who compiled this list?
I would personally put Nichijou right near the top actually.
I love the butthurt over Nichijou. It's an amazing adaptation of a pretty fun 4koma. Nothing to get so upset over.
I watched all in the list but just to past time not that much of an excitement.
