It's like not watching Gravity because of Armageddon.
Disappointed there wasn't an Aerosmith song in Gravity?

Well the MC in Nisekoi actually has interest in girls so its not that brutal.
I found watching Nisekoi (before I dropped it) profoundly frustrating. Because it was good at times! When it was focused around mob hijinks, and even some of the school stuff, it was a legitimately funny romantic comedy. The problem was that you can't go for an episode without the stupid cliches of the childhood promise story being bandied about and reminding you that nothing will ever progress ever. And so I dropped it and went back to the superior Shaft harem series.

There's no sole winner. Kojou has children with Yukina and Asagi that we know of (in the future), and there's probably more that we don't.
Okay, not watching Urusei Yatsura because of Inuyasha, then.
Inuyasha's better than Ranma.
I actually haven't seen much of Inu Yasha outside a handful of eps, but I didn't think much of what I saw.
I was disappointed there was no Aerosmith song in The Lord of the Rings. What good is having Steve Tyler for a dad if he doesn't play a song for your big break?
It's one of those things where if you don't like it from the beginning you'll never like it, but I also think that most of the humor in Ranma has aged poorly.
If you cut out like 70% of Inu Yasha right down the middle you'd actually have a case.
As is hahahaha no.

Inuyasha is pretty good.
At least, I loved it. It has its flaws, but the series has a lot of heart, and Takahashi's character work put in the context of a shounen battle series actually created a pretty interesting result, and there are some great emotional moments. Of course, there's also a lot of padding.

The Inuyasha manga was banned from my school library because of Kikyo tits, good times.

You shouldn't really compare Inuyasha to Naruto. Inuyasha is actually pretty thoughtful and well developed. It's not for everyone, but it's on a level beyond what Naruto ever aspired to, even at its best.

It's like not watching other Kon films because of Paprika, something that actually happened to me until someone here convinced me otherwise. Now I know Paprika is just a bad apple.
That damned filler getting in the way of my plot!
You know what? You're not too bad.
That's actually a fair point, since Ranma wasn't that great to begin with. I wouldn't say it has aged poorly though, since if you cut out all the repetition and excised everything related to Happosai you'd still have a solid show.
I'm sure you're right. It's just that they came on at a point in time where I wasn't smart enough not to equate them so they kinda got linked in my brain and I've just put off watching either of them for that reason for years.
If it did then Itagaki would've totes released that game by now. ;-;7

Hey! B-b-b-b-bilbo!
You've got your mama's smile but you're the shire's child to us!
So Bagginses! The trick you used to win that ring is not fair to us! You cants ask that question! GIVES ITS BACK TO US!
MYYYYY MYYYYY MYYY PRECIOUS!
Well with Ranma I just got a bit bored of it after S2 so I started skipping episodes and only watched the one where I thought the plot scenario looked interesting.
Tenchi Muyo! OVA 8
Generally babies in shows suck unless they're Maggie, Hana-chan, or the wee baby Shamus, but this one wasn't too bad besides having that goofy looking tooth. Washu-chan shows off her maternal side while the others flounder in trying to care for the kid. Like when Ryoko just filled his bottle with milk powder instead of making milk.
I hate how Funi translates 'Washu-chan" to "Little Washu". It bothers me.

His penis is honoring her.

Hell yes season 2 of Buddy Complex coming soon, this anime is really underrated and yeah it may have a few flaws but it's still great and one of my top season. I may sound like a dick but I personally enjoyed Buddy Complex more than Kill La Kill because it was hyped as fuck.

I can't think of anime youtube videos without thinking of AMV Hell.
I loved the cowboy bebop ones

Liking anything more than Kill La Kill will be the norm in the future. History will prove me right.
Even with the proposed alterations it skews too slapstick for me, but I totally get why people did like it and still like it. It has broader appeal than something like Inuyasha, which requires enjoying a specific combination of genres to compensate for some of its own repetition.
Wizard Barristers was still worse than Kill la Kill this season.

I seriously think every post you've made here is about Buddy Complex haha
I'm gonna start calling you psyhconinja 2
Bluray episode 11 will change our stance on this. History will prove me right.
If only that was the nail in the coffin. Ando could have literally animated a new universe into existence with a blunt crayon and it wouldn't have saved the show.

There's something so horrible and tacky about this that it almost actually does loop back into being funny.

Except that
Both main girls won We have a cannon future where koujou has a kid with asagi and a kid with yukina and it's quite possible he has more kids than that .
*Nods
Inuyasha is deeply flawed but stay entertaining. My only problem is that sango should have more attacks at her disposal but other than that everything was fine ... inuyasha was one of the few anime where i loved even the fillers !
Oh it bothers me too.

I watched the final scene for the hell of it. Never understand why
some children call their parents by their first name. Like Asagi's daughter did with Kojou
Yeah Sango's pretty much the weakest link of the main four. In fact I'm pretty sure she is the only one who never even gets to kill a Naraku Incarnation/Band of Seven member, if memory serves me right.
Still I like her quite a lot and think all the characters get a good amount of screentime.
Now I'm imagining Ando scribbling on a bluray disc with a crayon BRS style. lmfao

Kojou's whole family calls him Kojou-kun for whatever reason.
You have to understand that honorifics are inherently problematic, and when they're called attention to in a show it's especially difficult to actually translate when you can't get away with just rephrasing the way things are said to be more or less polite.
