However, it lacks in overall popularity among the western community for its over the top style approach and for being "bizarre". <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/324/Mobile_Police_Patlabor"> Patlabor Series</a> The Patlabor series is considered to be one of the best mecha series for its characters and realistic approach. Sadly, majority of western anime fans have never heard of the series. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/3577/Kyouran_Kazoku_Nikki">Kyouran Kazoku Nikki</a> Comedy perfection. If you're a fan of comedy, you shouldn't miss out on this one! All the characters have strong personalities that only makes the random story even better. Its cartoon-like art goes perfectly with the anime. An underrated anime hands down. <strong>Kono Danshi, Uchuujin to Tatakaemasu</strong> A short 28 minute OVA that carries a surprising amount of impact in a short amount of time. The story captures your heart instantly with each of the main characters carrying a ton of depth and emotion with a small amount of screen time. The animation is unique and original with a soundtrack to aid the gorgeous scenery and moments. We can't wait to see more offered from the rising director: Yamamoto Soubi *NOTE: Contains light BL moments, but this isn't an extreme yaoi title. <strong>Listen to Me, Girls. I Am Your Father!</strong> If you enjoy Usagi Drop , then your love this anime title. This is a simple anime about an young male adult, who under family circumstances, must take care of three girls. All the girls are at a different growing stage so means 3x the personalities. If you love an anime about having to take care of kids all while dealing with your own problems this is one for you! <strong>Needless</strong> Needless is the mirror image of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. It includes the same character persoailities , art, and battles that make you go HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!! Now if only it receives the same recognition as its older twin. <img src="http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/UnderratedClubAccount/silven_zpsaea3bedb.png" /> <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/6213/Toaru_Kagaku_no_Railgun"> A Certain Scentific Railgun</a> A classic that doesn't get the proper respect within the anime community, even with its original idea and animation/art that is pure eye candy. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/3366/Persona:_Trinity_Soul"> Persona: Trinity Soul</a> An anime that receives a lot of complaints among Persona fans for not staying true to the Persona franchise. Yet, it is great watch if you don't play Persona or aren't as critical as the loyal fanbase. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/10456/Kyoukaisenjou_no_Horizon">Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere Series</a> Entertainment beyond words. If you can handle the confusing beginning and big-breasted girls, you'll have a wonderful treat to watch. Action scenes are top notch with a giant of cast of characters that you'll come to love. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/13333/Tari_Tari">Tari Tari</a> One of the most underrated anime titles of Summer 2012. The cast of characters mixed in with wonderful music scenes make it an anime that shouldn't be missed. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/10396/Ben-To">Ben-To</a> An anime about fighting for bento boxes. Mix in with decent action and a lovable cast of characters, Ben-To shouldn't be missed if you love corny, comedy anime. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/2986/Bamboo_Blade">Bamboo Blade</a> Your simple down to earth anime. An anime about a Kendo club making it to the nationals. The main drawing point of the anime comes from its well-done chemistry between characters. Entertaining and a good watch if you want to kill some time. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/10495/Yuru_Yuri"> Yuru Yuri Series</a> Another over looked moe anime series. Carries a strong cast of characters! Full of cute and hilarious moments to keep those watching entertained throughout the whole series. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/198/Speed_Grapher"> Speed Grapher</a> One of the most overlooked action anime. Entertainment at its finest. The story carries itself well with a dark and gritty atmosphere that isn't for everyone. Even the characters, specially the main antagonist, are entertaining to watch. Animation quality carries itself well with Gonzo handling the scenes to make an anime that shouldn't be missed by action fans. <img src="http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/UnderratedClubAccount/bronzen_zpsa27e015b.png" /> <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/2476/School_Days"> School Days</a> Love it or hate it. School Days is an anime gem that manages to connect to our deepest emotions and thoughts. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/7724/Shiki">Shiki</a> One the best vampire anime to come out in recent years. Yet, it isn't as talk about or remember among the anime community sadly enough. <!--spoiler--></span></div><!--center--></div> <div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://i.imgur.com/T50OcTB.png" /><!--center--></div> <div style="text-align: center;"><div class="spoiler"><input type="button" class="button" onClick="this.nextSibling.nextSibling.style.display='block';this.style.display='none';" value="Show spoiler"> <span class="spoiler_content" style="display:none"><input type="button" class="button" onClick="this.parentNode.style.display='none';this.parentNode.parentNode.childNodes[0].style.display='block';" value="Hide spoiler"><br><img src="http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/UnderratedClubAccount/blockbuster_zps1adfa786.png" /> <img src="http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/UnderratedClubAccount/8102_clannad_zps72b43ab8.jpg" /> <strong>Clannad</strong> Under works! <img src="http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/UnderratedClubAccount/over9000_zpsa1a19849.png" /> <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/9756/Mahou_Shoujo_Madoka%E2%98%85Magica">Puella Magi Madoka Magica</a> The anime that took the industry by storm for its dark elements. Shouldn't be missed by dark anime lovers, but sometimes you can't help but wonder if it truly deserves to be in the top 50. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/9253/Steins;Gate">Steins;Gate</a> Ranked #3 for a good reason. Steins;Gate continues to capture the hearts of anime fans around the world, bringing a fresh air to the industry... but when other fans tackle Chaos;Head and Robotic;Notes, they think they'll be on the same level as Steins;Gate? Big note to take away: All anime are different!!!! <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/1575/Code_Geass:_Hangyaku_no_Lelouch">Code Geass</a> Although we love Code Geass as much as the next person, it's time for the king to step down from its throne. We have extreme fans bashing other anime series [Guility Crown in particular] for trying to be the next "Code Geass". You can't even consider that a term as all anime thrive to be unique within the industry. <em>K-On!</em> <strong> Link broken so search it up yourself</strong> Oh K-On! Nothing but a simple slice of life anime about a group of cute girls forming a band and rocking it out in style. Should we mention that the animation is also top notch? Enjoyable, but the extreme anime fan base that's formed from it is what we should be really scared of. <strong>Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann</strong> The mecha anime that created a whole new definition for the genre for its over the top style approach fill with a cast of characters that you want to cheer for all the way through. Other anime tend to follow its example but get easily shot down by its over supportive fans. <img src="http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/UnderratedClubAccount/popstar_zpscb9faee5.png" /> <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/3588/Soul_Eater">Soul Eater</a> If you're anime fan, you're bound to hear about this one at least once in your lifetime. Enjoyable, but not worth all the nearly god-like worship. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/3572/Macross_Frontier">Macross Frontier</a> The Macross series has a ton of history behind it and for newcomers, we recommend watching the 1982 original first. A modern classic hands down, but it doesn't hurt to encourage new timers to give the rest of the series a try. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/11013/Inu_x_Boku_SS">Inu x Boku SS</a> Your typical romance cliche anime. Boku SS has a loveable cast of characters, but the romance is bland and feels force. Enjoyable, but it doesn't change the industry in a good way. <strong>Toradora!</strong> One of the best school romance anime around. For new comers of the genre this is the one to start with, for everyone else who seen ton of romance anime you'll find this one to be quite predictably and generic. <img src="http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/UnderratedClubAccount/idolr_zps92325cc4.png" /> <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/4898/Kuroshitsuji">Black Butler</a> An anime filled with action and a great cast of characters that make the fan girls go wild. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/3470/Special_A">Special A</a> A shoujo classic, but its cheesiness and cliche moments prevent it from being the best in the industry. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/2993/Rosario_+_Vampire">Rasario + Vampire</a> A bad anime adaptation for a good manga series. Isn't necessarily "overrated" because it's not ranked extremely high, but it does manage to maintain its rank in popularity of 100. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/8074/Highschool_of_the_Dead"> Highschool of the Dead</a> The anime with walking milk-tanks [plus a loli] and crazy amount of well-done action scenes. Sadly, it's just pure entertainment and nothing more due to characters with one-sided personalities and a story that tries to take itself too seriously. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/3457/Vampire_Knight">Vampire Knight</a> A romance anime fill with attractive guys and a dull female protagonist. Pure fan-service for the girls that love to gag over hot guys but not the romance anime newcomers should start with. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/8676/Amagami_SS"> Amagami SS</a> An adaption of a dating sim. It focuses on all six girls' routes, but the splinting of the story and sudden plot focuses might confuse some viewers. Be warned of the boredom that you might experience from it. <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/anime/1195/Zero_no_Tsukaima"> Zero no Tsukaima Series</a> Your typical ecchi-comedy-harem and highly repetitive in its execution. If you like ecchi anime, this is the title for you. Everyone else should think long and hard before deciding if they want to watch it or not. <!--spoiler--></span></div><!--center--></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <img src="http://i.imgur.com/d7ulQSf.png" /> <!--center--></div> <div style="text-align: center;"><div class="spoiler"><input type="button" class="button" onClick="this.nextSibling.nextSibling.style.display='block';this.style.display='none';" value="Show spoiler"> <span class="spoiler_content" style="display:none"><input type="button" class="button" onClick="this.parentNode.style.display='none';this.parentNode.parentNode.childNodes[0].style.display='block';" value="Hide spoiler"><br> <img src="https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/556796_338194702944412_2060403330_n.jpg" /> <img src="http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/9744/ban1a.png" /> <img src="http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/1097/banyan.png" /> <img src="http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/8079/ban2bd.png" /> Feel free to add more, if you've made any! <!--spoiler--></span></div> <!--center--></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <img src="http://i.imgur.com/lQlM7hg.png" /><!--center--></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <div class="spoiler"><input type="button" class="button" onClick="this.nextSibling.nextSibling.style.display='block';this.style.display='none';" value="Show spoiler"> <span class="spoiler_content" style="display:none"><input type="button" class="button" onClick="this.parentNode.style.display='none';this.parentNode.parentNode.childNodes[0].style.display='block';" value="Hide spoiler"><br> <img src="http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/UnderratedClubAccount/Goals_zps52764641.png" /> 300 reach!.....

I know.. I feel like if I quit now, I'd have wasted several months of my life. :")

Damn, I don't know if I should be proud of you or sad that it fit in your tastes. XP

Now you'll have to follow it for the rest of your life.

Animewolfguy | Feb 2, 2015 6:40 PM
Good luck watching every episode.

xFangero | Feb 2, 2015 6:39 PM
happy late new years!!

i caught up to the most recent episode of One Piece. . . I love it now. theres no going back. ;u;

Kisaragi | Sep 14, 2014 2:03 PM
Hi guys =D

@Fangero OP gets better :)

xFangero | Sep 6, 2014 1:07 PM
i finally watched One Piece (i'm not counting the few times I watched it with my dad as a kid) and wow it actually isn't that bad. I'd say its about a 7.5ish.

don't know if i should even be saying that as the boss of a club who is anti-overrated stuff like that . .but this club is dead anyway.
