Kumamiko managed to start out great, only to slowly descend into being awful and creepy. gently caress you for ruining something that could have been in the other thread, and gently caress you for wasting a really good OP/ED.

Joker Game had two or three good episodes before more or less abandoning it's premise and any of it's interesting characters to become...you know what, I'm not even sure what they were going for. I sure as hell don't care enough to finish it to find out if they knew either.

Dimension W started pretty good, but the writing and characters slowly fell apart until it became a boring mess I couldn't bother with anymore.

Most Avoided: Berserk. God that hurt my eyes to watch. At the very least it got me to read the manga I guess.

I might have watched more out of curiosity over its popularity, a tornado hit while I was in the middle of the second episode (technically third, as its premiere was double-length) and I took it as a sign that I shouldn't watch any more Re:Zero

Careful, last time a series of real life disasters stopped me from watching a popular show, it was Toradora and it was great. I've come to the conclusion that god doesn't want people to watch good anime. Also you should give Re:Zero another shot. It gets really good and pretty much does the opposite of what IBO did in terms of writing as the series goes on in that the violence is always grim and you never feel that the main characters are "safe."

the premise of rezero is such that the characters are literally always safe. thats like the one guarantee

No, the main character is always safe. Well, physically at least.

Kazuma doesn't really get shat on at all. Everything just ends up going generally okay for him all around. Not that it really matters because saying the two are basically the same when one's a serious drama and the other's a wacky comedy is dumb all around. Like saying Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy is basically the same as Start Wars because it's just an average main character in space.
