Most appalling (terrible) anime you've ever watched.

I've not seen sword art online, don't want to, but everyone and their grandmother tells me it's amazing. I don't know. It seems to be complied of generic cliches from other anime and doesn't really float my boat.

SAO really isn't that bad. People like to exaggerate how bad it is because of its popularity. Yes, it has its quirks and flaws, but I still think it's an anime worth watching. My friend who is in a creative writing major tried it and loved it, even knowing its imperfections and things that could have been changed.

Apocalypse Zero. It's pretty old, pretty gory, and pretty graphic and just...ugly. It's just a terrible anime. Probably the worst I've ever seen in my entire life.

I was thinking and looking so hard for the title of this... I wanted to mention it but I got beaten to it, haha.

It's worse when you watch while eating. :]
 
I thought I was going to want to cringe-watch all of these terrible animes for laughs, but a lot of these sound seriously deplorable. I've seen some manga with bad anatomy and style and whatnot, but these are like... Bad, bad.

cringe-watching is a total waste of energy tho guys like,,, it isn't healthy don't do it

School Days, the anime that I watched because I heard of its screwed up ending... Well turns out this twelve (or so? I don't remember exactly) episode series was a horrible pain to watch before that, because not only was the first half dreadfully boring, but it was full to the brim with completely unnecessary shots of the panties and the ridiculously oversized breasts of the middle/high school girls.

Sometimes I don't know why I even got myself to watch that series to begin with... Why would I even want to watch what happened in the end? Lol. Certainly wasn't worth seeing the rest of the series. It was disturbing long before it was meant to be.

That sounds dumb. When I was in middle school I literally had NO breasts.

I actually don't watch anime so I can't say I dislike a series, but the ones mentioned here sound really bad.
 
I forgot what the anime was called, but it was about a guy who moved into a house with his new stepsisters and they constantly fought over him. (Like, they literally tried to have sex with him and one of them even drugged him. It was cringe-worthy, unrealistic, and it honestly made me embarrassed to be a girl. (It was an insult to the female gender. -_-)
My friends showed it to me as a joke and since then, I've ultimately judged them for thinking it was an 'entertaining' series.

Edit: I found the title of the anime. It's called Kiss X Sis.
Additional note: Now, I don't think there's anything wrong with ecchi anime or hentai. If some peeps like that, it's obviously fine... but rape/incest is too appalling of a fantasy to have IMO.
(Unless it's between a couple who are into those kinds of things lol)

THANK YOU. As a guy I also found Kiss x Sis to be downright insulting. It has no original ideas and tries to pass off as entertaining by acknowledging tropes and stereotypes without giving any sort of commentary or insight whatsoever. On top of this, the humor is so bland and uninspired. I was shown this in pretty much the same context as you, so I understand exactly what you mean.

English dub of Ghost Stories

Well that one to be fair was INTENTIONALLY bad. The anime itself is was so god awful it flopped in Japan and the dub company told the English voice actors to just do whatever they wanted with it. Knowing they were working with garbage, they just took it over the top. Now, I ended up dropping the series, but I think it's fair to say overall that the dub is actually better than the sub in that case, because if you watch the sub it takes itself so seriously and misses so many marks.
 
the second season of yami shibai was just terrible. its a pretty obscure anime so im not expecting that many people to know about it, but its basically twelve to fourteen episodes (four minutes each) of horror related japanese myths and everything. the first season is amazing, but the second season made me feel like i was watching something meant to scare little kids

The first season wasn't that great either. It had a few good episodes, but it was rather disappointing overall.
