So darkgray's made his thread for the best animes of 2014. This is not that thread, this is here for us to vote on the worst of 2014. The rules (with exceptions) and formatting are totally lifted from his thread because I am unoriginal and lazy. The list is also lifted from his thread, so many thanks to Darkgray for putting in all the work. The rules 1.) Pick 5 titles from the list below that you have watched at least three episodes of 2.) Write about why the show was bad. Was it disappointing? Was it poorly animated? 3.) Discuss choices, but keep it civil. Someone disliking something you liked isn't the end of the world. 4.) Feel free to rank things 1-5 if you want 5.) Feel free to give dishonourable mentions to other things that nearly made the list, but please differentiate these from your votes Please note the biggest difference, you can only vote on things you've at least given the three episode test to. This is so that people think about what they've watched that's the worst as opposed to just giving me a block of votes for all the incest shows (unless you gave an incest show a 3 ep test for whatever reason). You don't have to have finished the anim though. The list code:

1.) Kill la kill - Excessively overhyped garbage that recycles one plot point at least three times and also has a woman finger her daughter. Trigger did not save anime. 2.) Chuu-2 S2 - I enjoyed season 1 enough to make a thread for this. It turned out to be insanely dull and an unnecessary sequel. 3.) Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka? - I'm usually a sucker for shows where cute girls do nothing but this just didn't do it for me. 4.) Hamatora - Dull non-action. No consequences for anyone. 5.) Super Sonico the animation - Bad

I enjoyed posting excerpts from the LNs to make fun of, so I got some enjoyment out of mahouka

Outer Science posted:also jumping on the train to tatsuya's gulch, choo choo. I'm tallying votes as this goes and I assume this means mahouka. I don't remember anyone's name in mahouka so tell me if I'm wrong.

Sakurazuka posted:And I'd say that this thread is less about being critical about anime than is is laughing at actual irredeemable poo poo like Mahouka and that dog girl shoujo one. I'm hoping it's a bit of both. People seem to be voting for anims that they found subjectively bad which, combined with the decent discussions, is exactly what I wanted out of this thread. I'll post either later today or tomorrow with a list of goons who I've had votes from. If you haven't voted (in a clear way) please do so at some point (but keep chatting too).

WickedHate posted:So a show's bad just for depicting rape? Usually, yes. People who I have down as having voted: Aers, Alder, Aleksei Vasiliev, Blitzblast, Blockhouse, Cake Attack, Cao Ni Ma, Darth Walrus, Davincie, Demicol, Genocyber, Good Listener, Harettazetta, HerpicleOmnicron5, Hivecommander, Hocus Pocus, Laplace, Mad Lupine, Metal Ray Sunshine, MonsieurChoc, Namtab, Outer Science, Paragon1, Pentyne, Sakurazuka, Silver2195, SSNeoman, Stall_19, Strong Mouse, The Monkey Man, TheCornKing, Wark Say, WickedHate, Witch Fetish, Yes_Cantaloupe, Ytlaya, ZenMasterBullshit (37 voters, not bad) If your name is not there and you feel it should be, it's because I couldn't tell your vote apart from general discussion. Can people please ensure that future votes are bolded to make them stand out. Additionally if you edit your votes please post to let me know as everything prior to this post has been counted and I don't intend to look back Wark Say, No Game No Life was not counted in your votes as you stated you'd only seen 2 episodes (plus if I'd included it you'd have voted for 6 things). E: Interesting Stats: 1.) The current #1 worst anime has over double the votes of second place. 2.) Only 1 of the current top 10 did not have a thread in ADTRW Namtab fucked around with this message at 00:48 on Dec 24, 2014 |

HiveCommander posted:Namtab, what are the biggest stinkers for the year thus far? Is it too early for you to talk numbers? There's a clear winner for worst anime it's mahouka, but all the others are very close. I'm ending this when darkgray ends his, but I don't know when that is. E: Legend of korra is not anime, btw.

WickedHate posted:I'd love to get into LoGH, but 110 episodes of aged animation that isn't dubbed is too much for me. Are you trying to imply that dubs > subs?

I have neither watched LoGH nor molested children so your stats are all hosed up.

Darth Walrus posted:There are people in this thread who have got more than five minutes into Recently, My Sister Is Unusual (though I've yet to see anyone stupid enough to have given it the three-episode test). I've not seen anyone post that they've watched that anim. Certainly no votes for it so the system works.

Darth Walrus posted:I think there were a couple of others as well. The three-episode rule is the only reason it isn't getting votes, because who the gently caress is willing or able to sit through an hour and a half of that? Oh yeah I was gonna take that challenge then I remembered there's a limit to what even I'm willing to absorb to make fun of for the internet for so small a bribe.

WickedHate posted:It had interesting stuff going on. It didn't get bad till after that big battle, and also someone pointing out that in the LN the protagonist didn't care about civilian deaths. I remain happy that it was that, and not the nationalism/incest subtones that made you hate mahouka. Then again.... WickedHate posted:Fake incest is bullshit hoop jumping and is bad justification for incest anime. If you're going to make a creepy fetish show don't chicken out and be ashamed about it. I guess your view wrt incest anims is "go big or go home". Cool Namtab fucked around with this message at 18:50 on Dec 29, 2014 |

Welcome to an arbitrary time on new year's day. Time for some results. In joint 5th place with 5 votes each: Psycho Pass Season 2 and Rail Wars In 4th place with 6 votes: Persona 4 Golden In joint 3rd place with 7 votes each: Sailor Moon Crystal, Sakura Trick and Wizard Barristers In joint 2nd place with 9 votes each: Sword Art Online Season 2 and Kill La Kill In 1st place, with a whopping 20 votes. ADTRW's choice for worst anime of 2014 is Mahouka Overall, 65 series were voted for in the poll: code:
My personal view is: - The requirement for a 3 ep test minimum kept the thread focused on things that people had actually watched. I'd say asking for more episodes minimum would risk losing votes due to the sunk cost fallacy, my reasoning against less is explained in the OP. - I think giving people a maximum of 5 choices was a little high and is probably why 3 of the top 5 spots have joint "winners". I personally feel that 3 choices would have helped focus things a little. - Allowing discussion and debate around choices was a definite success.
