Underrated anime series or overrated
maxxjulie:
this thread is going to annoy people. lots of great anime's will be called overrated and mediocre ones called underrated. someone already made the shocking claim that Naruto is overrated. it's really popular, but does that mean it's fans think it's the best anime or something? i love Naruto, but I'll never say it's the best. it's like pizza. is it the best food ever? no, but I love eating it more than anything. naruto is like pizza.

but Naruto IS overrated, there are still a bunch of rabid fanboys who will tear you apart of if you say it sucks. I still like it, but the show hasn't been really good in a while.
Overrated:
Hinotori - I have seen a bunch of people praise this animation, but I had to force myself to finish it.
Underrated:
idk, most of the stuff I watch I tend to agree with others, but GitS could always use more love :)

everyone that's seen gankutuou thinks it's great I'm assuming. so how would it be underrated? it's not super popular cuz it's a serious anime with a story line and not brain dead fun. does that make it underrated cuz it's not as popular as Naruto?

From what I have read, a lot of people didn't like it due to it not being a good homage to the source material. I personally think if you are going to compare it to the book you shouldn't watch it in the first place.
