Hollywood Narrator's Anime

take a look at Hollywood Narrator's Manga

FIRST: I will not include non-anime on my list (IE: not-anime-but-related). I enjoy western animation, but my ANN list is Japanese cartoons only.

SECOND: My comments may contain minor spoilers. You have been warned.

No. 3: This is the third strongest of the notes on this list!

FOURTH: I rate things any way I want. It's my opinion and I don't care whether anyone things I'm being subjective. I may change ratings at any time because my opinion changes over time.

FIFTH: Hollywood Narrator is my only account.

Baka and Test - Summon the Beasts (TV) Worst ever Repetitive and juvenile to the extreme, especially with the worthless camera character and the stupid "jokes" about (usually bouncing for no reason at all) breasts. Regardless of whether they are flat in the chest, all of the female characters are flat in personality. Other than thinking about the size of their boobs, their personalities consist of getting angry and hurting boys they have crushes on. Raging homophobia also on display.

Clannad (movie) Not really good
Clannad (TV) Decent Gorgeous music. The show features many clichés and is hit or miss with its comedy. It's obvious Nagisa is the centerpiece gal, so it feels disjointed when focusing on Fuuko and Kotomi. Nagisa is a doormat with little personality. Be sure to see the Tomoyo arc episode, as it's somehow the best episode of the first series.
Clannad After Story (TV) Good First 8 episodes are largely a waste. The baseball episode is fun, though. Nagisa is still a flat doormat. It's like her father owns her and she's passive about everything. Episodes 16-21 are impressive. I felt let down by the "true ending" episode 22. There were many ways they could have gone (even if they had to deviate from the game). It would have been better ending it at episode 18 or 19. Emotionally powerful. Characters are prone to stupidity. Be sure to see the Kyou/Ryou arc episode. It's as good as the Tomoyo arc episode, but obviously isn't a big standout here like it would have been if it were a part of the first series instead.

Fate/Prototype (OAV) Not really good
Fate/stay night (TV) Weak I liked Fate/Zero, so I thought I might like this. I was wrong. Fate/Zero gave no indication that it was a prequel to an eroge harem visual novel. The real knife in the spine is Shirou, an unlikable, smug, condescending, sexist, selfish, brainless, over-controlling douche who is still allowed to constantly steal all of the glory and focus from characters he has no business out-powering (including Saber!). Predictably, right from the start, the warrior woman (and every other female character) is set to fall head over heels for the douche and be all blushy and defenseless around him. The interesting premise had potential and is the only high point. Any other positives were actually all entirely Fate/Zero's doing. The ending wasn't bad, though.

Macross 7 Encore (OAV) Bad Which One Do You Love?: Milia is such a terrible parent. She's also a dumb-ass. Worst episode of the lot by far. / On Stage: Not particularly good, but probably should have been in the regular show lineup. / Fleet of the Strongest Women: Best of the lot, easily, and almost enough to raise my score. Also a good chance to hear Mylene's "real" singing voice! Did they really have to panty-shot the poor flower girl, though?

Mahoraba ~Heartful days~ (TV) Awful Reasons to run away from this: Kozue's annoying "transformations". Cousin-screwing fetish presented as superior to any gay option. Personality-lacking male lead who is the best romantic interest because OF COURSE HE IS.

Mobile Suit Gundam (TV) Not really good 5th Gundam seen.
Mobile Suit Gundam - The Movie Trilogy Very good 7th Gundam seen.
Mobile Suit Gundam 00 (TV) Not really good 1st Gundam seen.
Mobile Suit Gundam 00 Second Season (TV) Not really good 2nd Gundam seen.
Mobile Suit Gundam Seed (TV) Not really good 4th Gundam seen. The constant reuse of scenes makes most episodes feel like clip shows (how many times do I need to see that character die?). And then they'll have clip shows anyway. Wish they wouldn't include cheesecake breast wild thrashing during big fight scenes. It's pathetic. Nearly ever female pilot is only there to be cannon fodder or does little of note in a fight while piloting a comically pink Gundam. But that's typical for Gundam from what I've seen. It's clear at this point I am not a TV Gundam fan.
Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny (TV) Weak 9th Gundam seen. The new Lacus (NOT Meer) songs are great. Lacus herself is still the best. The show doesn't know what it wants to be most of the time. Trashes Cagalli's character for most of it, sadly (and somehow she's always "wrong" while grunting stupidly and wide-eyed). Shinn is an annoying protagonist, but the series does an okay job of adapting to that amid its many knee-jerk plot shifts. Neo is a cheap knockoff and an unlikable character and the show adapts badly to that. Meer is only terrible pandering and she gets an episode pointlessly devoted to her near the end. Main villain's "master plan" comes out of nowhere and is guessed by a character toward the end. Ending is predictable.
Mobile Suit Gundam UC (OAV) Good 12th Gundam seen.
Mobile Suit Gundam Wing (TV) Bad 8th Gundam seen.
Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack (movie) Not really good 11th Gundam seen. Quess and Hathaway are the most annoying characters in Gundam history.
Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team (OAV) Good 6th Gundam seen.
Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam (TV) So-so 3rd Gundam seen. I'd always heard this is the pinnacle of Gundam. If that's true, then I'm disappointed there's nowhere to go but down. I was glad to see this show had so many female pilots, but unfortunately they were prone to becoming "women in refrigerators". One female pilot was also prone to babbling about wanting to be "treated like a woman", or desiring to "live as a woman". One character also switches sides for no real reason (I know the "real reason", so don't bother telling me). I was impressed the show is essentially constant mecha fights with no recaps, but I found myself at times wishing they would slow down and relax.

My Little Monster (TV) Weak "I love you, but you don't love me, but I'll wait for you to love me" to "I don't love you, but you love me, but you'll wait for me to love you". And back. Infinity. Also, Haru is a creepy controlling dick. I wanted Shizuku to dump him and go with the other guy. But then Haru would probably murder everyone.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica (TV) Masterpiece AMV match: "Dark Side of Me" or "Time Consumer", both by Coheed and Cambria.
Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie Part 3: Rebellion Decent Its sin is presuming to usurp the perfect ending the series had. It falls short of this (admittedly impossible) task. The series is better off without this movie in its canon. The movie is okay in an insane way, though. AMV match: "Dark Side of Me" or "2's My Favorite 1", both by Coheed and Cambria.

R.O.D -The TV- Decent
RahXephon (TV) Decent
Ranma ½ (TV 1/1989) Awful Offensive. Stupid. Long. Repetitive. Full of filler. Homophobic. Sexist AND HOW. Cowardly clinging to status quo. Sometimes still funny anyway? Rumiko gets much better later with InuYasha.

She, The Ultimate Weapon (TV) Bad
Shiki (TV) Bad Sunako is a whiny, smug, and annoying asshole of a villain. I hope the show wasn't expecting me to sympathize with her as if she were the hero/victim. But I think it was. I wanted her impaled, though.

Strait Jacket (OAV) Bad
Strawberry Eggs (TV) Worst ever Misogynistic. Homophobic. Pedophilic. Smug. Creepy. Worthless characters. Completely awful and with no redeeming qualities. Shows like this are why so many people hate anime.
Strawberry Marshmallow (TV) Decent
Strawberry Panic! (TV) Weak At least it has the guts to do REAL girl/girl romances instead of only teasing.

Suteki desu wa, Sakura-chan! Tomoyo no Cardcaptor Sakura Katsuyaku Video Nikki! (OAV) Decent
Sweetness & Lightning (TV) Good Almost went higher. Decided the excessive "foodie" stuff and constant use of "OISHII" dragged it down. Tsumugi is one of the cutest things ever.

Tenchi the Movie - Tenchi Muyo in Love Not really good
Tenchi Universe (TV) So-so
Tenjho Tenge (TV) Awful
Texhnolyze (TV) So-so Too slow and too unfeeling. Well, it feels melancholy, but I was looking for more feeling between Ichise and Ran. It's a dark and moody show and I like that part. Needed a lot more character development.

Trigun (TV) Masterpiece This is the show that got me into anime in the first place. It inspired me in my life and my writing. Without it, I don't know who I'd be today.
Trigun: Badlands Rumble (movie) Decent
Trinity Blood (TV) Bad This show is a knock-off of Trigun. Even its title suggests this. I wouldn't mind this if the show was better.
Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE (TV) So-so
Turn A Gundam (TV) Not really good 10th Gundam seen. I'm done with TV Gundam now.
(The) Twelve Kingdoms (TV) Very good

xxxHOLiC (TV) Good
xxxHOLiC the Movie: A Midsummer Night's Dream Decent
xxxHOLiC: Kei (TV) Good
Yakitate!! Japan (TV) Bad They bake bread. But it's still basic shounen that refuses to take risks. It's almost all predictable baking tournaments with no intensity. I found a pattern. If the second bread is tasted by the judge, it will always win with the exception of a rare draw. The first bread tasted only ever wins when the second bread isn't eaten at all.
Yona of the Dawn (TV) Good
your name. (movie) Very good
Yu Yu Hakusho The Movie: Poltergeist Report (movie 2/1994) Not really good
