Tsubasa Chronicle. The anime was complete crap…Bee Train RUINED it for me.

Ah well, we’ll always have the OVA’s by Production I.G., which were brilliant.

I think that the second season of negima was the worst thing ever.
they just rushed into everything way too quickly..
the vampire attack happened in the first episode for ra’s sake!!

@yakuri, I was actually planning on watching Peach Girl this week. Looks like I’ll need to really work up it to it….

@Inuhanyou, are you referring to Peach Girl? Boobage in anime? It can’t be (><)!

Well, there was some boobage, actually there is a lot more nudity in the manga, as the anime was pretty edited. But that was part of the problem, as they spent an annoying amount of time falling into the standard anime cliches of ecchi and whatnot that they didn’t bother to focus on the rest of the plot that needed tending to. Baadly

What about Peach Girl? it’s a pretty decent shoujo manga, but the anime sucked balls so bad I downloaded just to bury the cd somewhere i would never find it.

I also loathe DNAngel’s anime. The manga is superb, but the anime transition left me cursing the world.

Only thing I would have liked from xxxHolic is better animation, not movie-quality but at least a little better (Soul Eater quality). And I wish Clamp got their hands on Tsubasa earlier; took them 50 episodes to draw the line…

@Inuhanyou, I wasn’t that much into the manga, but I do recall some boobage. The anime had extra fanservice? Boobage?

Tenjou tenge is another that comes to mind, the manga had nudity but it was to be expected as it was seinen, whereas they tried to pass the anime off as a shounen but with extra fanservice that came off extremely cheap…did i mention that they also wasted the second half of the series on flashbacks that set up a backdrop for a plot that never showed up?

@Hypertoast, seems like there’s not much love for the Tsubas anime!

@JO, Sounds like they sugar-coated the anime when it got made. That’s a major irritation. It makes anime seem all bubble gum goodness when it really isn’t.

Eyeshield 21. They toned down the attitude and the American coach’s racism, and drew a lot of the characters really strangely. The colors were off and things looked a little cheap. A lot of the subtle humor didn’t make it over, either. Ah, well.
