Underrated anime series or overrated

Akira is one of the few I thought was overrated. Even when I first saw it in the 90's, I was like ok this is cool, but why is everyone going nuts about it, bigger question is, why do people still go nuts over it?

Naruto (the anime) is also overrated. The hype was deserved when the show first came out, and for the first 60-70 or so eps. But now it's blah and fillers.
 

Underrated, well a few months ago I would have said Nodame Cantabile. But it seems like it's getting well deserved attention lately.

Now this is going to sound crazy, but Lucky Star is somewhat underrated to me. The people who see it, love it. But the problem is, most people can't get through the first ep of basically nothing + a little character development and thus bash it. I never bashed it myself, but I had to force myself to watch the first 3 eps and as I watched more and more eps I got used to the style, dialogue and non stop talking which seems to be the turn-off. And rightly so, if it wasn't for fanboys praising it, I probably would have stopped after the first ep. It has now become one of my favorites.

Ichigo Mashimaro seems a bit underrated to me too. I could be biased, because I think the show is hilarious, but I never see many recommendations or chatter about it.

Hyakko is seriously underrated. Alot of people criticize the show and say is not funny but I enjoy every episode. I can't find much wrong with it.

Naruto and Bleach are overrated (this is only what I think).

You obviously haven't been to /g/.

Overrated?
Full Metal Panic, boring, weak, little character development and aimed at an audience that is obviously DBZ fans.

Mai Hime, well, it's just meh.

Underrated:
Shinigami no Ballad, awesome quick series, very enjoyable and almost deep in meaning.
Texhnolyze, it's just great after the first four eps, great pace and story.

If you are talking about the chans, (2, 4) yes I have. But taking a recommendation from them is like asking the drive through window guy at mcdonalds for sexual or legal advice. Generally not recommended.

If you are not talking about that chans, then I'm curious what you mean.
