Did you ever "forced" yourself to watch a anime that you were clearly not enjoying just because it was something considered "good" or "a masterpiece" by the general fanbase?

Monogatari I can understand. But Mononoke and Katanagatari were amazing and you should kill yourself for having such abysmally shit taste.

If it is considered a masterpiece then there is obviously something to learn from it, be it historical significance in the history of anime or pioneering animation techniques and seeing the origins of a certain form of story telling.

So while not all of them may be "enjoyable" in a sense it's not like I regret watching them because atleast at the end of the day I am more informed about the hobby that I enjoy. And I'd say being an anime fan entails knowing a lot about anime right?

There are some things I was forced to watch simply by my own constraints.

I plan on watching everything KyoAni, SHAFT, and everything that aired on the Noitamina block (save that one live action thing).

Absolutely dreaded watching Munto, it wasn't TERRIBLE, it's just unthinkable to have to watch the same story 2 and a half times.

PPD and Sasami-san were borderline painful to watch.

And I wanted to kill myself watching Thermae Romae and so badly wanted to drop Battery. Apparently I'm in for the same shit for No 6.

I tried to force myself to watch Monogatari but dropped it after a few episodes. I already knew that it would have pretentious art, but it still exceeded my expectations of how shitty it was. The animators were clearly wanking to themselves thinking they were part of the sakuga meme while the studio was smirking like a bunch of Jews at how cheap they could make a slideshow and call it an anime.

Sorry, it just didn’t capture my interest at all. Kamina’s overt machismo was really the only thing that I liked a lot.

It's probably just because it was mecha. The only one I've been able to sit through all the way was Code Geass, and the Knightmares fights were the least interesting part of that show.

An /a/non I know IRL recommended it to me along with Madoka and Nichijou.

Loved Nichijou, though.

Other than that I have no idea why would you try something you obviously aren't enjoying

Kodomo no Jikan.

Kodomo no fucking Jikan.

What a steaming pile of fucking bullcrap, I get put on to this by friends who introduced me to anime before that I've adored, they sell it too me as a brilliant comedy and emotionally touching piece. What a fucking let down.

It was a mess, an utter mess, a train wreck that was amusing to watch for the first episode but after that you realise you're just staring at an already crashed train.

The main girl and the black haired one of the two side girls are the most insufferable pieces of shit, they are nothing but arseholes to the teacher, one sexually harassing him and using societal conventions and the fact she'd automatically be believed out of the two to get away with it, while the black haired one is physically violent with him over pointless things, in a way that never amounts to being amusing or tsundere or anything.

These elements are clearly supposed to be comical, but instead the show takes its self so bloody seriously at some points that there is a complete dissonance in everything about it, the 8 year old little shits acting like selfish, annoying adults over talking about their problems half the time gets grating on its own because if they weren't such shits about it and didn't give their teacher such a ridiculously un-funny hard time then, fuck I don't know, the show wouldn't have had so much bullshit got damn drama.

The worst part is, fuck it, I'd be down for an anime about a younger person falling for their teacher, 8 is stretching it maybe but it's fiction so I don't care that much, but this show constantly stepped on its own foot again and again in trying to be comedy because of the disconnectedly serious tone it took, and stopped the serious moments feeling like anything but contrived shite because of mediocre writing/use of cliches and heavily comedic slapstick tone it took the rest of the time.

Comedy and drama can be blended well and have been before, but this show didn't have a clue how.

Forced myself to watch K-On 2 because a concept of dropping was unknown to me at that time.

manga was better. if you only want the ecchi aspect of KnJ you watch the OVAs, if you actually want the story you read the manga

Most of the early UC OVAs are interesting in various ways, but I don't know how much my watching them was enhanced by being into the world thanks to having seen the original UC shows. Gundam as a whole to me has come to be mostly a worldbuilding show, which sounds odd considering it's about giant humanoid robots which logically shouldn't be efficient anywhere, but still.
War in the Pocket is probably the most consistently good of the OVAs, the others tend to fall apart in the second half, but are still interesting. 0083's first half to me is the perfect Gundam setup with all the usual elements but really well executed and with great style and visual directing. Sadly the second half has some writing misses. 08th MS Team has a shit story with plot armor but nice atmosphere. Unicorn is amazingly pretty and is mostly decent in terms of story, but heavily banks on the viewer's knowledge of the setting.
All in all I'd recommend watching Thunderbolt. It looks great, sounds great, wastes no time and is consistently interesting.
The best way would still of course be to just start at the beginning and watch all of UC, and then branch out into alternate universes, but you asked for shorter ones so here we go.

It's not an anime but yeah, this.
>B-BUT MUH THEMES, MUH DEEP CHARACTERS
It's cringeworthy from beginning to end. The characters are absolute shit and the plot is lazy as fuck.
THERE ARE RPG SHEETS
If anything the presence of such things is absolutely detrimental towards making your work serious.

Mecha genre. I just can't into it. Don't know why. Always have to force myself to watch them. The last one I enjoyed was Megas XLR.

Why the fuck would you force yourself to watch something you don't enjoy? Stop being a retard.

because you don't like the concept of the failure.
you want to succeed and be happy

Dragonball Z when I was a teenager. All my friends watched it so I wanted to fit in

Years ago a friend recommended me K-on and other friend Highschool DxD. I even downloaded the first seasons without knowing the plot of series. Hated it both.

Madoka: Dropped it on the 7th episode.

Ore no Imouto: Went through the whole first season and found it incredibly bad. Second season comes in and I hear it's actually good, so I tell myself I found the first season bad because I wasn't feeling up to it at that time and decides to watch the second season.

I felt like a fucking retard when I realized I had fooled myself into watching this pile of crap.

No, at best, it makes me watch another ep or 2 to see if things did get any better before dropping it for good

I forced myself through the first 6 episodes of fate/stay night before dropping it
I tried to read Angel Sanctuary because of the incest, but dropped it because I just couldn't get into all the angel bullshit
I'm planning on forcing myself to watch Oregairu at some point, just for Sensei

I used to, back when i was in my collector phase i would watch stuff i down right hated just because i wanted to say i watched it to increase my bragging rights, but now i give an anime three episodes before dropping it, if it hasn't hooked me by episode three it's probably not worth watching, though there have been exceptions. when i revisited some i dropped long ago and found they weren't that bad, but for the most part i almost never go back and try to rewatch stuff i dropped

Cowboy Beebop I later realized I was doing this and dropped, but watched 6 episodes of pure agony first.

Cowboy Bebop

I didn't hate it, but I realized it was nowhere near as good as I was told it would be. It had a lot of good moments but overall I was let down. If I had never heard about it before watching it, I would likely have enjoyed it way more.

I finished it and did feel a little sad at the end, but that might have been because I was disappointed.

There's a lot of shows I hated at some point or another, but usually they ended up getting better. I had a LOT of trouble finishing the last 2 episodes of NGE, but upon rewatch and watching EoE, I enjoyed it a lot more.

Log Horizon.
What a piece of shit that was. No idea why fans praise it so much.
Sure the characters had some great points but the story was shit! SHIT SHIT SHIT!

btw I only watched season 1, couldn't get myself to watch season 2.

If you every played an MMORPG and it was anything like that? Then I feel sorry for you. You must have had a miserable time while playing.

>mods, are you allowed to declare sage again?
We removed visible sage for the sole purpose of preventing saging as a thread down-vote. Sage is used for not bumping a thread for a whole bunch of reasons, mainly to not bump your own thread since all oldfags know a true good thread is bumped by others. Not that cancer would know anything about our culture.

>>148378592
No. Why would I do that?
Every so often I try to delay dropping one show in hopes that it will get more interesting later on, and it tends to work well enough.
