Turn-A Gundam.
I swear its almost forbidden within the Gundam fan community to even criticise it slightly. I found it mind nummingly slow. I get this is character based but at least give a little action in the first six or seven episodes. I don't care if it gets better, the few episodes of of an Anime should not be an endurance test. The whole point of these episodes is to get me interested.
I don't think a lot of people get what overrated means. I've never met anyone who claims that Yu-gi-oh or Pokemon are high art.

1)Inuyasha-
In my opinion,although i BELIEVE it came first,Inuyasha is just a crappy version of Fushigi Yuugi.The story is WAY to drawn out,and the romance is annoying?(see the cultured anime thread for details)THe only reason it got so popular is because it want onto Cartoon Network.It was pretty big in Japan but its just gross in the USA2)Rarunai Kenshin-don't get me wrong,i love Kenshin,its great,but overrated as hell.Its a great samurai anime/manga but there are better.Hell,most ppl who are obsessed with Rarunai don't even TRY other samurai anime or manga..just sad.
3)Chobits
i love the art,its very cute,but the anime/manga itself gets really BLARG after awiole.It is literally the same cycle over/over again.Chi: im a robot and i don't know stuff so im going to do somthing stupid,Hikdiki:Chi,now thats not nice.Chi:whos a person just for me?Hidiki:I have no clue but even though that robot in that picture looks just like you/stuff,i don't think it is.
i donno,i just don't like it.
i must say that never has rurouni kenshin stopped me from watching other samurai anime, only influenced me to find better
