I think there is an anime adaptation of Tsukihime.It's called Shingetsutan Tsukihime. :)
Uh, duh. I knew that. The joke is that for diehard Tsukihime fans like myself, the anime does total unjustice to the original VN in terms of characterization and artwork and therefore does not exist.

It's called sarcasm.

I've given up written sarcasm. It's so difficult to pull off.

I tend to be very sarcastic online and irl. It's hard to see where it begins and where it ends *_*

But to keep on topic, another anime I dislike would be Saiyuki. I mean... Geez, the artwork and animation probably makes Minekura cry. But I guess I can still stand it for the delicious voice acting. And Gojyo.

I thought so,since you wrote
Unlike Tsukihime which was just... HNNNNNNNNNGH.
but I just felt like posting anyway.

And (yeah! I begin sentences with 'and' ) speaking of sarcasm , it requires one to be familiar with the context to fully appreciate it.Having neither read the VN nor seen the anime , I don't think I was familiar enough with the context. :)

I'd like to disagree---it depends on the readers familiarity with the context (but then perhaps that's why it's hard to pull off).I can't say for sure though... I've never tried. :( :?

To return to the topic----Ghost In The Shell.

Even though I like their style, I can't really stand Powerpuff Girls Z. They don't have Bunny in it!

Extreme dislike of most shonen fighting anime of the DBZ-Naruto variety (either they're made up mostly of filler, ala Naruto, or the fight scenes take ten episodes a la DBZ). I much prefer the original (Fist of the North Star).
---
I may be in the minority here, but I liked second-season Death Note. It gave off the image of Light winning and the backup team scrambling desperately to make up for L's death. It doesn't have the Light-L conflict, true...but then, Light does have other people to emote at.

...what? I liked Takeda. And Misa wasn't nearly as stupid as she acted.

Well, my list of "anime I can't stand" would be short/nonexistent, considering that I generally don't watch an anime unless I think it will interest me.

...Oh wait. I just remembered one: Inuyasha (due to all the fangirling on the internet - and the fact that the titular character looks like a girl).
Pie is delicious.

I don't like shoujo manga/anime... They're repetitive and extremely predictable, no matter what the plot is. Too bad I have to endure them everyday... My little sister never stops watching them and forced me to watch it with her.

Shonen mangas/anime are the best!

I think I just watched episode 9 tonight...
and I keep watching it because the girls are so darn cute, but honestly, there is NO story T_T

It's to the point where the laziness isn't funny anymore, it's just downright depressing. They don't DO anything! They just eat and lay around...
And their whole school looks depressing, but that's just because I don't like stuffy rich-looking places. So while I can *stand* it, I really wish they would actually do something more interesting than sit around and eat cake. Also, there are like NO men in the series. None. It's kinda... bleh...

But I have a worse anime in mind.
That History's Strongest Disciple Kennichi or whathaveyou,
DRIVES ME CRAZY.

A friend loaned it to my boyfriend and I to watch.
We have watched the first two episodes so far.
I don't really want to watch any more.
I just can't even explain how badly done it seems to be. T_T
The main character is a weak pansy and feels like he needs to "protect" a girl that CAN FREAKING USE MARTIAL ARTS...

by reminding him of the courage and honor and hope and pride
and compassion and pity and sacrifice which have been the glory of his past."

@Sapphi
I'm a man, and definitely love girls, but if there's no man..... It feels.... empty :D

About history's Strongest Disciple Kenichi....
I recommend you to watch more or read the manga (But it's up to you) because, in the manga, the protagonist became stronger in volume 2-3 I think.... and (at least the manga) is full of awesomeness :lol: But once again, just recommending :D

And to add 'animes I can't stand' is animes that start out good, but ends up bad. Sometimes the first episode was mind-blowing, but then it's like.... meh.
(my) example : Kurokami, the first episode was.... Awesome but then the story goes crumbling and ends up bad.

I don't like Hollywood movies... They're repetetive and extremely predictable, no matter what the plot is. Too bad I have to endure them everyday... Our TV stations never stop playing them, so even changing the channels doesn't help...


Could it be you're confusing "shoujo anime" with "romance anime"? Shoujo as a genre is as diverse as it gets, from Sailor Moon over Nana to Fruits Basket, His and Her Circumstances and Maison Ikkoku.

Oh, darn. It's in my pile of unwatched box sets.

Hm, my list of Animes The World Could Have Done Without (TM) is pretty long. The most notorious I managed to finish are "Love Hina" (the TV series), "Please Teacher", ".hack//Sign" and "Gasaraki".
