I tried episode one of Avatar (the first series), and dropped it as soon as that girl started bitching and complaining about sexism.

The entire first season of Avatar was bad about that kind of thing. Mostly because of those two characters.

I'll say this if you ever decided to give it another shot, the first four episodes and last two of the first season are the ones that do it the most in particular.

One can't be too surprised that the writers who are being influenced, inspired by, and working with East Asians might be a little interested in giving the entire "Social Justice" thing a try. Even if they had no idea what they were doing.

The start of the first season in general is pretty weak. Overall I thought it was the worst season.

Mob Psycho 100 - People suck, but I still don't want to be alone, the anime

Do you like to punish yourself?
Slow introverted kid is too pure for this world. Good thing he is also unbeatable.
Main character? Can't relate...
The story? Hmm.. Even if things get resolved, it's never a good ending. God damn it, I need my youtu.be/a0fkNdPiIL4?t=14s !!!

At least it's far from stupid and I'm still merely at episode 5, so I'll definitely finish it. So far, doesn't seem like a keeper.

Like always the anime is just an advertisement for the manga/novel. they usually don't even properly finish these adaptations because they just want to give people a reason to buy the source material.

It might still be fine though, One Punch Man was a great adaptation despite only doing a small piece of the story, but that was an action comedy that was strongest at it's most ridiculous moments.
I still need to check out Mob Psycho but OPM has made me a fan of the authors work at least.

No kidding! Read the white subs on top: imgur.com/a/SjmXJ (taken from the very end of the 8th episode)

I love OPM, every single episode is gold. But mob doesn't live up to OPM, because you can't/don't want to relate to the main character at all. Though seemingly unbeatable, he is a complete tool, most of the time. So he and everyone else just make you cringe. Well, I'm still merely at the 8th episode, but the show has definitely picked up some pace, which is good, because things are finally starting to happen, so there is stuff to see.

similarities:
- both want to become popualar so bad (but haven't got the looks)
- tragic hero doesn't get the recognition he deserves, aside from a single blonde guy
- someone profits from the work the hero does (in OPM it's King (normal human) and in MOB it's Reigen (normal human))
- monsters and ghosts are killed off in an instant
- same pajamas, lol

Edit: Mob's ending definitely beats OPM's ending, thanks to clever plot twists.

This feels like the majority of the anime that exist now.

"Final Fantasy - King's Glaive"

Epic & dumb. It's as if they were trying to create the most artificial characters possible. Every bit of emotion was forced. And don't get me started on the possibly most disappointing ending of all times (after the credits). Heroes, well actually, almost everyone dies, so that the most undeserving/incapable wimp imaginable and his douchebag friends can live.

Rewatching Oreimo. It's amazing how different this show is when you know what happens.

Mayo Chiki! - I'll protect all the girls, even though they beat the shit out of me, cuz I'm a wimp, the anime

0 common sense, harem?, accidental ecchi leads to more ecchi, nosebleed, teasing, femdom/violence against males, reverse trap, little sister, parents abroad, guys to girls ratio: 1 to 10. Barely watchable, very cringy at times. Been storing it for so long that it feels like a waste, to delete it without watching. Can't believe this bullshit was recommended by a "seasoned viewer".

How about a few more keystrokes?
