How much of this actually exists? Annie-may that's so embarrassingly incompetent that you can actually sit through and laugh at ironically, like a hilariously bad movie? It's normally a lot harder to do because every bit of animation has thought and effort put into it, so it just comes off as intolerably bad when it's bad. Unlike an incompetent movie, which is much easier for someone with a handheld camera to half-ass their way through to a finished product. Pic related, Psychic Wars is fucking terrible.

I felt this while watching the Elfen Lied dub. The anime had potential, but in the end, it was so over the top, I couldn't take it seriously. There's also a lot of tonal whiplash.

Well the dub of Armed Girl's Machiavellism was horrendously funny

The thought of some action director unironically thinking this episode had quality action animation. Or the thought of some studio knowing it was garbage and intentionally shitting in their fans' throat for a climactic battle. Whichever was the case, they both made me laugh out loud. Anything that makes you puzzled over the intentions of its creator is prime so-bad-it's-good material.

>>2555
Ironically its not ALL bad and the animation itself is smoothly done with fairly detailed backgrounds and texture. It's just excessive at times which is so jarring.

>>2555
Was this done by Masaaki Yuasa?

I can think of quite a few, mostly because they're so over-the-top clichéd, rather than just completely incompetent:
&ltSacred Blacksmith
>nippon steel folded 1000-times waifus
&ltAnother
>ringu-type slasher j-horror totally over the top
&ltIchiban Ushiro no Dai Maō
>a.k.a. color wars, easter-egg assortment of cardboard cutout waifus with blatant wish-fulfillment protag
&ltZero no Tsukima
>tsundere waifu and pussywhipped horndog protag, cranked up to the point she literally keeps him as a pet and whips him for taking passes at girls
Also, not an anime, but if it were it would win in a walk:
&ltDungeon Seeker
>the edgiest most fanfic-tier isekai manga ever to edge an edge, almost reads like a parody, but it's absolutely 100% serious

>>2563
>Zero no Tsukima
&ltbad
Get out

>>2564
I'll admit I stopped after one season, having sated my thirst for meme juice. But so far as I could tell, the story was spectacularly lacking in self-awareness, both about its ridiculously rote characters, and about its own worldbuilding (for instance, the mind-control aspects of the summoning spell on the protag, which not only kept him loyal to the tsundere, but subtly erased his desire to return home, blithely ignored except as a vehicle to propel the plot).

Something with a similar dynamic, but actually good, would be Ghost Sweeper.

>>2566
I have to disagree with your reasoning, but I won't dump a rant on this (too lazy TBH). Zero's point was never to be really serious or deep, it was a simple and intentionally cliche Isekai that had fun with its gimmicks without overdoing it. It's a bit similar to Konosuba in that regard.

M.D Geist, this legendary anime is so good/bad that you will feel ascended after watching it. Also you will feel deeply confused about it and spend long lengths of time contemplating why M.D Geist does what he does in it.

It's like a retarded attempt at fist of the North Star, 10/10.

Netflix Original Anime lmao.

Samurai Flamenco is pretty great in this regard. It starts as an unironically good anime version of Kickass or something before going violently and hilariously off the rails. I remember watching this show with a friend of mine and the edibles kicked in right as we got to episode 7, and let me tell you we have never been the same since.

Garzey's Wing is an absolute classic of the genre. It's an incomprehensible disaster from the bottom up. I've heard Mars of Destruction is in this category as well.

I found Cross Ange pretty funny, but I didn't get very far into it.

Would Miraculous Ladybug count? It was made by Toeie

I might get some disagreement but I thought Code Geass was laughably bad. I watched only the first three or four episodes before I had to turn it off. I think what did me in was when the edgelord protag kills his cousin or half brother or something after storming some kind of base, and then in the next episode he has to go back to school. 2silly4me

It's actually really good as the politics of different groups ramp up, with the absurdity you complained about neatly highlighting class absurdities in the colonial holding of a deranged monarchic empire.

Sadly, once, er… THE EVENT happens at the end of R1, the entire show immediately falls apart. I was so angry I didn't bother watching R2, but from what I've heard it's a total shitshow.

Crying Freeman.
I don't know why. As I recall, the animation is decent, the plot is alright although a little cheesy, and so on. I think it's a bit janky and having watched it in drunk company, we couldn't take its serious parts seriously. Was fun, though.

Hot take from anotheer anon: On the subject of American fetishization. Code Geass might be the most egregious example where every single country became the United States [insert country name here] (even when it makes no fucking sense like Japan) under the system of an even worse UN. Somehow weebtards still try to paint the story as anti-imperialism when the villain main scheme is the anti-communist dog whistle of “making everyone apart of a hivemind/the same”.

Tenchi Muyo! War on Geminar (or Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari) is some of the most unintentionally hilarious and terrible harem anime out there. It begins in a way that build intrigue… and then throws it away for a weird fucking power-fantasy and other insanity reminiscent of Infinite Stratos.

This manga cover made me laugh so hard. It looks like it can't be anything but a literal hentai doujin… but it isn't. THe mnaga is literally called "Mr. Macho"
Doukyuusei no Maccho-kun is a conceptually inane story, but it's so bad it's good.

>>9982
Well, to be precise, 90s superhero/magical girl anime for kids in a "monster of the week" format
At least that's what I'm guessing anon meant by "cringe"

>>10131
That's supposed to be cringe? I mean if you execute it badly sure, but the concept itself isn't cringe or bad.

>>10132
I don't agree with calling it "cringe" either.
Maybe it just looks cringeworthy to some people because it's CGI instead of traditional 2D, and because it's Western. Or maybe the humor and pacing aren't to their taste.

Nah it looks like a regular ol' parody. This kind is pretty common in otaku culture. Like Gakuen Handsome for example, lol

Since they're parodies, they're intentionally bad/weird, so I don't think they count. But that's just my opinion.

Intentionally bad things like Birdemic are also counted in So Bad It's Good territory, so I think these count

In contrast to all this So-bad-it's good stuff, a so mediocre-its-bad series:
I went though "Eden of the East" in one lazy evening. What a dud that turned out to be. Almost none of the mystery boxes set up in the beginning are opened, and those that are, are resolved in the stupidest way possible. The boring ass mary sue protag and his angsty gf, nor any of the various side characters and their relationships did anything to improve on the whole.

Apocalypse Zero is a fucking masterpiece with legit great humanistic politics if you read the manga, also gets super in-your-face about Japanese war crimes and anti-nationalism. Anime focused more on the action-comedy but it's still good.

Haven't read the manga but I never got the hate for the anime, it's a weird semi-serious Go Nagai pastiche and it's very fun. People treat it like it's one of the worst things ever made.
People have this reaction to trashy 90s OVAs in general, they complain about shit like the low budget or the plot not making sense and it's like, that's part of the charm you rubes.

>>24980
Didn't know people even hated Apocalypse Zero, I always had fun and I think you're right. I think people might have hated on it because it's not "accurate" to the source material or whatever, in both tone and story, which is asinine, but Otaku and Weebs can be autistic like that often.

>I think people might have hated on it because it's not "accurate" to the source material

I don't think it has anything to do with its accuracy - I've only seen that claimed as a post-hoc justification from people who earnestly like the manga but don't want to rock the boat too hard and defend the OVA too. The manga got shit on by ANN & whatnot back in the day too & even these days many refuse to see it as anything but "so-bad-it's-good". ADMITTEDLY the OVA doesn't delve much into the more serious themes, like the "Unit 731 in all but name" stuff (maybe it's because the studio didn't want something too "controversial" in there, or maybe it's just a pacing issue since they wanted to pack in all the fun battles; who knows?) but it's still really good as an action-comedy. If a bunch of old timers didn't get into the mindset of "we need to promote anime as a serious mature artistic medium and disown stuff with unashamed gore/sex/pubertal comedy" at some point in the 90s both OVA & manga would've probably been well-received now.

>they complain about shit like the low budget

Kakugo OVA has pretty damn good production values for a relatively niche post-80s-bubble OVA and I feel like being told it's "cheap" before you watch it can paint your opinion of just how solid and dynamic a lot of this stuff is. https://www.sakugabooru.com/post?tags=kakugo_no_susume+

But yeah definitely read the manga. The OVA isn't as abridged as other adaptations since it was smart enough to not try to cover too much but it still is abridged and you're missing out on good comedy and characterization early on along with the more serious thematic stuff. And yeah I know talking about "serious thematic stuff" in regards to Apocalypse Zero sounds weird but that's just how a lot of Japanese stuff can be.

File: 1717301984879.png (360.14 KB, 685x517, shiro hagakure.png)

>>25096
On the other hand if the OVAs DID include the more serious stuff and got to adapt the entire story I kinda get the feeling anglophone critics would've been even more upset: "Why are you trying to make a serious point about Japanese war crimes with something so stupid? It's disrespectful to the victims & tonally inconsistent!"

>>25078
>Id rather the cucker be a hot power-bottom femboy

I'd rather just have the power-bottom femboy and exclude whoever the cuck is supposed to be. Maybe the worst part of NTR is having to give any attention to the cookie-cutter Japanese loser protag at all

>>25099

But yes I agree with your last sentenxe. I hate how they use ugly bastrards as the protagonist
