My Top 10: Characters That I Dislike in 2011

2011 has it ups and down but as an anime fan, I am pretty much satisfied at what the year has forked out to entertain us. Granted that not all the shows deserved praise but at least we have few decent and dare I say brilliant shows in between the seasons. Fall 2011 in particular has been quite rewarding for us fans.

Despite that though, there were characters that managed to ruin the shows for me and hence forced me to either rage quit or... oh wait there's no other option. As I have repeated so many times before, I am a character driven fan so despite the fact that the shows are good, but if there is one character that annoys the fuck outta me, most often than not, I won't bother to watch the show unless I have nothing better to do and need an outlet to rage.

So, here I am going to list down those said characters that in my opinion, should be burned at the stake. There won't be any editorial content that can justify this list. It is just how I felt.

anime: Mayo Chiki
character: Konoe Subaru
season: Summer 2011

(c) Re:N Ne

She was alright at first until the part that Kinjirou "accidentally" discovered that she's not exactly a male. I mean, who the fuck took a shit without closing the damn door? I could forgive her if it's her house but that was the fucking school for fuck's sake. That pretty much said to me that she's a slut and I don't do well with sluts.

anime: Poyopoyo Kansatsu Nikki
character: Poyo
season: Winter 2011

Yes, I am that big of a dick. I hate this round cat with a vengeance. A show revolved around a fat cat that does nothing in my opinion is fucking stupid, no matter how short the airing time for the episode is. It's not even funny... which defies the logic for such shows.

anime: Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko
character: Touwa Erio
season: Spring 2011

(c) Masui

To some her moeness might be one of the reasons why they love this show but to me, from the beginning, her moeness is the reason why I dislike this show. To me it was irritating. When I saw her eating her pizza inside that folded blanket, the only thing that came to my mind is that she sure as hell would have an unpleasant smell. I imagined the blanket to have all sorts of bacteria living in there and it must have smelled moldy with her sweating inside there. I don't think she took a bath either. Jeebus, get her away from me. But that's not the only reason. I think I don't like the idea of Makoto falling for her. In my opinion, he just wants her pussy because despite the retardedness, she's pretty as fuck. Urgh, reminds me that life isn't fair...

anime: Deadman Wonderland
character: Igarashi Ganta
season: Spring 2011

No justification needed in my opinion. Ganta is a fucking wimp.

anime: Mawaru Penguindrum
character: Takakura Himari
season: Summer 2011

(c) Loxcia

This might comes as a surprise to many but yes, I put this show on hold because I really don't like Himari. It wasn't her fault though. It just my fujoshi kicking in and I wanted yaoi incest to happen so very badly. Himari was that obstacle that ruining my fantasy and so she ends up in this list of mine.

anime: C³
character: Fear Kubrick
season: Fall 2011

(c) Aoba Senkiri

Just the fact that she appeared naked in someone's kitchen then acted like she owned the fucking place and made the person living there as her slave was already good enough reason for disliking Fear. Then add the fact that she is unbelievably rude and yet have people treating her so preciously. It just doesn't make any sense, does it? Also, I don't have respect for characters who practically begged to be fucked by the way she dressed, or behave. Who would fall and spread their legs conveniently for the male protagonist to see? She would and already did.

anime: Astarotte's no Omocha!
character: Astarotte Ygvar
season: Spring 2011

(c) Mutou

I guess it wasn't her fault but the fact that she has to consume semen in order to stay young and beautiful just makes her a slut by birth. It doesn't matter if she claimed that she hates men because eventually we all know she's gonna make Naoya cum in that small mouth of hers and for all the lolicon she will swallow it till the last drop!

anime: Dog Days
character: Millhiore F Biscotti
season: Spring 2011

(c) Ryo

SHE IS TOO PINK! Also, how the fuck am I supposed to take a character seriously when the name biscotti reminds me of the cookies? I hate women who appeared weak and seemed like she needed protection 24/7. Millhiore fits that description and by summoning Shinku, she proved my theory to be right.

anime: Sacred Seven
character: Aiba Ruri
season: Summer 2011

(c) pixiv id 1558005

Everything was going great but then she has to fucking ruined it by giving Alma that heart shaped stone. Suddenly Alma is no longer badass but a tamed fucker. She took over the school, forced herself on Alma and then used the sympathy card. That was too much for me. She should just fucked her butler and be done with the horny-ness.


So that's my top 10 most dislike characters in 2011. Do you have that one character that annoys you so much that it ruins the pleasure of watching that show?

Before I signing off for this post, here is an honorary mention for another character that successfully made me ragequit.

anime: Chibi☆Devi!
character: Sawada Honoka
season: Fall 2011

Another short show with airing time of 5 minutes, Chibi☆Devi! proved to be another disaster. For a show this short, it needs character that can carry it through flawlessly. Sawada Honoka is anything but that. She was bullied not only by her classmates but apparently by the Devil himself. It failed to make sense to me how she can calmly took the responsibility of raising a devil's baby. No wonder she got bullied a lot. She's a push over. Can't say that she didn't deserved the bullying...


Does any of the above characters pissed you off just like it managed to piss me off?

Diary of a tard: Week 4, May 2011

Sunday, May 22

Episode 4 of Ao no Exorcist wasn't as great. Well, introduction episode is mostly like that.

C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control episode 3 - I have forgotten how boring and complicated all the finanical shit are. Satou, the lady with lollipop, is from an organization that tries to uncover the secret and the impact of Financial District in real world. She has been following Mikuno for that purpose but it is a tough job. On the other hand, Yoga finds out that his father was involved with the Financial District. He went bankrupt and hung himself.

For his next opponent, Yoga has to fight his teacher who is expected his third baby. This happens in episode 4 of C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control. Yoga would have lost if Mikuno did not buy the asset stock he's selling. Remember that for Midas money, you have to put your future as collateral. I always thought the loser will commit suicide but the teacher who lost showed Yoga can "lost" truly means. He lost all his three child. They disappeared and his wife has no recollection of having children either. That is just too cruel. He also tells Yoga about the Starling Guild, an organization created by Mikuno. He's trying to minimize the effect of losing in the real world. I still can't make up my mind about Mikuno. I think he's a bad guy but all his actions are contradicting my opinion. Ah, well he finally managed to convince Yoga to join him.

Episode 3 of Deadman Wonderland - Wretched Egg, the one who did the masacre is on the loose and immediately goes into a killing spree with the inmates. Of course Ganta will react to it. He foolishly seek the Wretched Egg without knowing that his own life is in danger. He's wanted by the Chief Warden. I find it stupid that they are willing to kill other inmates just so they can capture Ganta. Can't they see how fucking useless he is? But he's one lucky motherfucker to have Shiro by his side though as she helps him (and Yoh) escape and straight to G-block. Well, he gets what he's looking for. The Wretched Egg comes and greets them himself.

everyone, meets the Wretched Egg. He's my new husband ♥

To be honest, I don't feel like watching Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko anymore but against my better judgment here I am watching episode 3. I try not to let Erio pissed me off too much. Thankfully Ryuuko makes an appearance and her moeness cure my blacken heart for this show. She changed the tone of the show for me. When she's not around, it turns shit whats with the aunt trying to seduce the nephew and the delusional cousin finally coming back to earth. Urgh

How cute =3

Fireball Charming episode 5 - Drossel is still planning on a dress to wear for the ball. This time around, it's an underwater spacesuit or so it seems to be. Then Drossel gets to learn about table manner. What a farm, she means, farce! Another episode gone by so far LOL

I actually want to look forward to Hanasaku Iroha but there is just something about this show that makes me shy away out of fear. I don't know what it is either. But lets just watch episode 5 and get it over with. Ohana blabs around telling others about the love triangle between Minko, Tohru and Yuino. Now everyone was making conclusion that Tohru is leaving Kissuiso when he is just taking a day off so he can go on a date. No wonder Minko is so taken by Tohru. He's the one who allows her to work at the inn. I still have a bad feeling that Tohru will end up liking Ohana as well.

LOL oh well I feel like watching episode 6 of Hanasaku Iroha as well. It's pay day and the inn got a visit from Kawajiri Takako. She's there to revitalize Kissuiso, as she puts it. She wants the waitress to wear some rather appealing uniform that is totally not Kissuiso. Ohana is a willing participant though. Well, it's not like they have a choice. The inn is struggling and they need to do something to improve their sales. Hmm, i guess they really are angling for Tohru/Ohana/Minko. That pissed me off. It's degrading for Tohru as a character.

I might as well. Episode 7 of Hanasaku Iroha: Tomoe is being pressured by her mom to attend a marriage meeting while the inn is busy attending a bunch of whacky customers who play survival game for fun. It's a perfect opportunity for Tomoe to act up and get fired because she's planning on quitting anyway. Unfortunately her plan backfired and the customers love her and she ends up realizing that she loves what she's doing anyway. Argh, what is with this show. It lacks consistency. It's episode 3 all over again.

I understand how you feel Tomoe

The World God Only Knows II episode 5: There are 60,000 loose souls left. LOL it seems like Keima will never find his freedom. But he can look forward to 60,000 kisses, right? Heh. Keima makes me laugh. He pretends not to care what real girls say yet he gets depressed nonetheless. That's cute. This time around he has to save his classmate Chihiro who always goes around calling him dweeb. Keima refused to help her at first but his feeling to conquer drives him forward only for him to be shot down right after making him completely gives up on the real world. Somehow this episode is about him getting help.

Snoopy reference FTW!

And he finds it from Ayumi in episode 6 of The World God Only Knows II. He's the first girl he ever helped with the loose soul. Booyah! I love the fact that these girls are coming back. It makes this show so much interesting. Anyway, Keima does ends up helping Chihiro but as expected, since they have grown closer together, Chihiro kinda has fallen for Keima too. Heh, who wouldn't.

Episode 6 of SKET Dance: Sasuke storms in and informs them that SKET Dance will be disbanded starting from today. As if they will comply to that. I can't help but see Keima in Sasuke though he's not as awesome. I'm taken in by Hiro Shimono thanks to Keima. Anyway, they end up competing who would have the best play and if SKET Dance win, they won't be disbanded. Heh, it's not hard to figure out who wins, ne?

Jintan is some sort of a necrophilia, isn't he? Ano Hana episode 6.

Tuesday, May 24

Ao no exorcist episode 5, another introduction episode.

The World God Only Knows II episode 7: Today is the big day for Chihiro to confess to Yuta. As expected, she doesn't want to, not after knowing that she might not be able to talk to Keima after that. Heh, girls are fickle being. So since he thought he failed, Keima is more determined to conquer her. I love the whole process of convincing her and take whatever opportunity he has to place a kiss. Go Keima!

Keima is desirable like that ♥

Yokozawa kinda pull a stop on Takano's attack on Onodera in episode 4 of Sekaiichi Hatsukoi. As expected, Onodera couldn't help but thinks what Yokozawa is doing at Takano's place at 2am in the morning. I have to give it to him though for having such strong self restrained. In this episode, Onodera proves that he is a worthy editor thanks to Takano who has full confidence that he gets it done. Then Yokozawa comes and pretty much tells him off, saying that it is all his fault that Takano's all screwed up. Onodera has no fucking clue what that is all about though. Guess I just have to see the next episode to find out.

The most intense moment in the episode for me

Akutabe hires a sleazy kid who made a contract with Gusion (he eats people fond memories) in episode 7 of Yondemasu yo, Azazel-san. Akutabe asked Sakuma to look after him but she refused so he opted for Undine the fish again. When she send that boy to school, she falls in love with the homeroom teacher and tricks him on signing the marriage paper.

It's good to see that they are focusing on Sinpachi for a change in episode 147 of Gintama. It looks like everyone is obsessed with getting stronger. Everyone except Gin that is who always comes up with various of excuses not to train. So Sinpachi and Kagura get helps from other adults: Sinpachi's sister, Hasegawa and lastly Katsura. Neither one of them is any help though. They keep reverting back to the gym instructors and bear. LOL

Hijikata and Okita Sugou are captured and chained in an abandoned building in episode 148 of Gintama. This totally reminds me of Doubt or Saw. Jigzaw threatens to blow up the Shinsengumi headquarters into smithereens in 3 days. Only Hijikata and Okita know about it so it is up to them to save that place. Just how will remain to be seen. Jigzaw totally have them by their noses. You know it will be hilarious when you put Hijikata and Okita together in one room, just the two of them. I think there's only one person Hijikata is afraid of and that's Okita. I can't say that his fear is unfounded though.

Kubo still refused to reveal who the mysterious shinigami is in Chapter 449 of Bleach.

Episode 6 of Ao no Exorcist is a filler but it's still fun nonetheless.

My first impression on SKET Dance and [C].

Hanasaku Iroha episode 3: Ohana was about to get rape by the novelist. I approved because she obviously volunteered to atone her mistake in the last episode. Such a nice girl. She even helped him with her sex-writing career (Ohana having a threesome with Nako and Minko in a bath tub). Then she tell the others about it *facepalm* which pushed him to the point of being suicidal. He jumped off a cliff but was save by Nako. The end. By the way, what's with the fanservice in this show? It decrease the value and I'm definitely getting bored with the crap. So what if the animation was flawless when it's boring as fucking a dead guy? Fuck, Ohana is annoying *is mad*

*shakes head disapprovingly*

Episode 2 of Yondemasu yo, Azazel-san! Tamura's lecturer asked her agency to look for his dog. Akutabe used the service of Beelzebub for this mission. His power is "forcibly induce excretion in living creature" as he puts it. He was good though and they caught the missing dog in no time at all but he also ate shits. But yeah as the show progresses, I was lolling off my chair with laughter because it took turn to the unexpected! God I love this show =3

the timing of this scene was impeccable

Ah crap Ritsu has started dreaming about his boss. That is always a bad sign that the anime is taking turn for the worse. Well we got to see how Takano is charismatic when it comes to his work in episode 2 of Sekaiichi Hatsukoi though. It just the process of wowing Ritsu which also included him forcing himself on Ritsu, trying to make him remember of the past. And fuckif that is not cliche enough, how about the fact that they are fucking neighbors?

Episode 3 of X-Men disappoint me. The pacing was poor and the plot was too cliche for my liking.

Episode 2 of The World God Only Knows II on the other hand was good. I was entertained.

Oh wow, I am watching episode 3 of Tiger & Bunny. Who would have thought? I sure did not plan this but I might as well watch this since I got the time to spare. This episode is about Kotetsu and Barnaby working on for better understanding and team work. Sounds terribly boring and sometimes it were but the show has it moments too. TV Hero was also doing a documentary on Barnaby so we got to learn a few things about him like his parent were murdered. The show won't be completed without a little action so they added in a bomb threat where Tiger & Bunny finally managed to work successfully as a team. They still bicker though but that's the best thing about this partnership. Btw, what's with Karina Lyle?

Sengoku Otome - Momoiru Paradox episode 3: Nobunaga paid a visit to Imagawa Yoshimoto to obtain the left leg of the crimson armor but it won't be so easy. The episode is about how Nobunaga used 'recreation' to get the armor. It was stupid >>

Episode 2 of Sket Dance: random samurai guy showed up at the club asking for help to win the kendou tournament. They solved the problem with Friske. Then onto the second mission: taking care of Yabasu and getting rid of a bomb. They have to do both at the same time because the monkey ran away with the fucking bomb. There were some funny moments but only like for 2-3 minutes of the whole show.

Bleach chapter 445 was somewhat interesting.

Glo convinced me to check out Nichijou so I started with the OVA Nichijou episode 0. Not as I expected it to be.

Friday, April 22

As expected from A-1 Pictures, Ao no Exorcist is fucking awesome. I came in my pantsu.

Episode 2 of Ano Hana. I am glad to say here that the quality remains and the story/drama just gets better. Awesome shit.

Yoga met his Asset, Masu in episode 2 of [C] The Money of Soul and Possibility Control and immediately forced into a Deal. As expected Yoga was totally useless and got beaten by his own bitchy Asset but through this Deal at least I grasp the idea of what it is and how it works. Eventually Yoga won which was a big deal. The last person who won on their first Deal was Mikuni so naturally he paid Yoga a lot of attention. He even went out of his way to pay Yoga a visit. Yoga still has stick up his ass when it comes to Midas. He doesn't want to has anything to do with it. That's impossible. Masakaki remains as best character of the show.

Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko episode 2: Makoto treated Erio like she's totally retarded as she explained about some alien shit. She totally deserved that kind of treatment. She also brought him to the ocean and when she went adrift, I couldn't help but laughed at what Makoto has to say. Apparently Erio disappeared for half a year and came back with no memory of what happened. Interesting... In this episode Makoto also met Mifune Ryuuko, a totally moe and adorable girl from his school. I can't help but like Mifune because he made Makoto do all kind of stuff that even he questioning himself doing it. Her attitude is infectious. He also met the Giant Oarfish, Maekawa. Note here that some of Makoto's monologue are really witty and funny. Kudos to the writer.

First Impression: Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko

Lunatic Woman and Vernal Man? I have to check the dictionary and find out what vernal means before I realized that the subs screwed it up. It was supposed to be Electromagnetic Wave Woman and Adolescent Man. Orz...

When I saw the first ten minutes of the episode, I was reminded by at least four different anime: Shinryaku! Ika Musume, Durarara, Yozakura Quartet and Kanon. Shinryaku because of the obvious relation to the sea at the beginning of the episode. Durarara because Makoto was just as excited as Mikado. Yozakura Quartet because Makoto kind looks like Akina and Kanon because Meme just reminded me of Minase Akiko.

I'm not sure whether this is a good sign or not but from what I can tell, I like where this show is going. The dialogue is witty and I appreciate clever jokes. Well it's not jokes per se more like Makoto's monologue as he accessing his surroundings including the people he met which include his aunt Meme who kind of an airhead but not really and the self-proclaimed Erio who could be his cousin or a crazy girl Meme picked up somewhere. The interesting thing about this episode for me is the fact that Meme pretends that Erio who is wrapped in a blanket, does not exists. It makes me doubt that she exists until Makoto points it out to her. She didn't treat Erio like a human being either which is worth noticing.

Makoto is like any male teenagers with raging hormones. He checks out the cute girls in his class, planning on spending wasting his pocket money, etc. I like the fact that his brain concludes that God is far just because even though Erio is beautiful she lacks in the mental department which mean he can treat her without bearing any special feeling (yet). It would kill the mood for me personally if he falls in love with her at first sight. That would be retarded.

Shaft is known for the quality arts and animation and they do not skimmed on this project. The director cleverly use different camera angles and perspectives to create an atmosphere for the audience. Some of the background scenes were really pretty as well. As for character designs, they definitely go all out with Erio because I have to admit that she's fucking fappable to. The other females are just as pretty. I sense harem in the making.

I am not sure about the whole "I'm alien thingy" plot though because I felt like it has been used too many times. If Shaft can bring in something different to the table then this show has the potential to be solid and entertaining. For the first episode, it was okay.

art & animation 9/10
story 7/10
characters 7/10
sound 6/10
enjoyment 7/10
overall 7/10
