I usually don't like making these hate threads, but Terra Formars will be the exception. Terra Formars has up to now been eight episodes in a row of fight fight with zero middle ground. I've seen plenty of action anime and I'm not against action at all, but where's the substance? Everyone minus Adolf has been extremely below average and only cry or fight. Shouldn't there be more character personality or at least one cooldown episode with no fighting? Cooldown episodes aren't bad things.

Inb4 drop it comments: No. I don't even hate Terra Formars, I'm just growing tired of this fight then switch to the next division and fight some more.

You're asking for a show about cockroaches turning into black people because they were sent to an inhospitable planet to have substance?

The only substance anybody should reasonable expect from this series is similar to the substance that gets flushed down a toilet.

I'm glad people are realizing day by day Terra Formers should have not existed.

While your point is valid, that doesn't excuse Terraformars to lack it. It just needed one episode inbetween as a cooldown episode, that's it.

The manga isn't half bad, maybe they only have a hard time to adapt it into decent anime medium :/

The story itself is incredibly dumb. I can work with suspension of disbelief, give a reason that isn't completely idiotic and you can do just about anything. This story is just completely idiotic.

They even put in a narrator to explain things, and still fail. How do cockroaches become sentient in 500 years? Why travel to mars knowing you'll have to fight tons of roaches, with essentially no weapons? it just goes on and on and on.

It's like hentai for combat/violence/gore... everything exists just to get to the next fight... except I've seen hentai with better plot.

Anime is just a commercial for manga.

Terra Formars isn't meant to be the most thought provoking anime out there, nor does it try to be. It knows what it is and sticks to what it does best. It's simply meant to be a fun ride that consists of awesome action with badass powers, so what's the problem? Just sit back and enjoy it for what it is. I feel like too many people nowadays treat watching anime too much like a dick measuring contest LMFAO

That isn't really relevant though since I can name plenty of anime I've seen with substance.

Someone doesn't understand the story and therefore says like its a dumb-story. The reason they're going to mars is because they wanted to find vaccines for viruses-epidemic on earth(in that story) , or should I say , they suspected it was from a cockroaches that was sent to mars.

Personally i watched many many animes in past few years.
I cant even keep track here anymore.

But terra formers, sucked me into watching it behind i hoped "something" would happen.

So far 11 episodes in, all i remember about this anime is:
Ep1 story, ep 2-10 random fights with random characters never showcasing who is powerful, humans or roaches.

I am really disappointed so far in this anime.
And will be the worst i watched so far

Yeah. This anime is shit. There is nothing cute about it all. It's negative cute because people are bugs. Gross.

I've read the manga and i got to say the anime is just about the gore as it leaves out a lot of the events from the manga, dumbing down the story a lot.

I still like this anime just because of the exciting parts. I've also seen hentai with better story, haha!

Lucky star has substance and is obviously relevant for the future of man kind. /sarcasm


Get real, look at your list of animes and think about your life and where your parents might have gone wrong.

The Aliens meme explains this entire anime story line

However I personally love the manga although the anime has been a below average adaption for the senselessness of it. It is one of those sit down and watch really cool action scenes with really cool abilities. And I love the little tid-bits of information on the bases they all use.

You were so offended by hearing an anime you like had no substance you had to post twice. Aren't you adorable?
