I like when people tell me an anime is godlike, incredible writing and tone and presentation then you watch Full Metal Alchemist and every episode has forced attempts at humor in it where he gets mad at being called short and gets a chibi face and it's just so incredibly unfunny and they will have this same joke literally every episode for like 100 episodes.

Sorry but I just can't do it

At least stick around for the unique character design and original tropes and storylines:



The third one from the left on the bottom row likes books. The one next to her is more into sports, though.

These are the only types of anime characters:

1. Very standoffish person with a temper who eventually shows affection towards the correct person

2. Very stupid protagonist that gets through challenges with a scrappy can-do attitude

3. Nebbish pussy boy who's potential is unlocked by a manic-pixie type

4. Manic pixie types

5. Impossibly powerful malevolent demon

6. Robot (usually controlled by 1-4 but sometimes autonomous)
