Re: The Hunt for the Lamest Anime
The show also features a boatload of fireballs, explosions, blood, crushed limbs, and every single person in the entire series looks jacked. Had it not been marketed as a kid's show, Dragonball Z would be so packed with testosterone that the very mention of it makes you grow another pair of balls.
Okay, but InuYasha is still pretty lame. I remember how I was going to watch my first episode thinking, "This will be fun!" and then being left disappointed with a massive " :/ ". Some of the characters just seemed to be added there for the sake of being there. Even reading some of the manga base material makes you go " :/ " because the characters still look boring and drawn just to look "cute" and the artist was just " :/ " while drawing it.
EDIT:
At least Trinity Blood looked sort of cool with blood and some priest who shoots guns akimbo. Still, I'd have to agree with you that it's extremely overrated. I'm not sure what Adult Swim was thinking by not picking up Desert Punk or Speed Grapher. Those shows seemed to have more mainstream appeal.
And Big-O wins for those style, even though for the most part I didn't get what was going on because I started watching only somewhere within the second season yet I still felt the urge to watch it.
