No, the pinnacle of wasted potential is airing right now.

What do you know about wasted potential

Wasted potential doesn't exist.

Wasted potential is just your misguided idea that you'd be a good writer.

It had no potential from the get go

Tough competition.

But I would have to give it to Aldnoah due to how they solved the main problem of the show at the end of S1 by killing the autist, but then brought him back and made him even worse.


Re-Creators has just been a slow slide to oblivion

Cool sounding concept doesn't equal potential.

Erased was. Kayos rescue arc was incredible, then it just blew up.

Cool sounding ED doesn't equal potential.

>this show that sold successfully is wasted potential

>sold successfully

Once again salesfags prove their retardation

Aldnoah didn't even sell that well

hay guise wats going on in this thread?

>8.7k blu rays sold
>tons of merchandise sold (Slaine's frequently sold out)
You can call it wasted potential all you want but to them it was a success.

I'll never stop being mad about this. Inaho should've stayed dead or at least be permanently crippled in some way after that instead of becoming an invincible cyborg. I can still buy his survival but make him blind or crippled or something. So that he can't fight anymore and can only offer advice in fights. And for fuck's sake, have the balls to kill off Hime. Her death can actually kick off an interesting plot.

Honestly it was pretty good up until that fucking ending what the fuck

No, it was awesome, they most annoying guy in the series got killed off in the second episode.

Xamd was good. Anything bones does is good.
Except the ending of course. Anything bones does is good except the endings.

I didn't know what the fuck was going on with the plot of the show, but I at least still had an interest in it.

The original disappointment.

Inaho ruined the show while Slaine did his best to salvage it.

All 3 main characters were pretty shit.

But Slaine was infinitely more entertaining than the others.

No this was.
It was okay, but it could have been way better.

Gundam squandered its potential a long time ago.

That would be Gargantia. It was at least somewhat promising until the halfway point. Aldnoah was confirmed a dumpster fire by E3.

This, holy shit. I've never seen a single anime go from a 9/10 to a 1/10 so fast.

it was outright bad
>That would be Gargantia. It was at least somewhat promising until the halfway point.
Not really

>Anything bones does is good.
Soul Eater would like to have a word with you. Not even its fans wanted to defend that atrocity.

>except the endings.
Yeah.

What did people expected from AZ other than eggs using wikipedia to victory?

Looking back over the last 7 years, I'd add these shows to the list of wasted potential

Occult Academy
Mirrai Nikki
Last Exile
Asobi ni Iku yo! Asobi ni Oide
The new Evangelion movies
Sakamichi no Apollon
Maoyuu Maou Yuusha
Vividred Operation
ng_up
Mekakucity Actors
Rail Wars!
Captain Earth
Gundam: G no Reconguista
up
Punch Line
Subete ga F ni Naru: The Perfect Inside

The first two episodes were really good.

How wrong you are my 'friends'. Frankly the wasted potential is based on what yoi want, and is a subjective measure but there's a lot of it in anime

Add Kotoura-san to it as well

That title goes to Smug-chan tales in my books. Such a promising ep1, such a shitty anime.

I second this one too.

>wasted potential
It never had any.

Every Bones anime with original ending

>Vividred Operation
>Gundam: G no Reconguista
>Subete ga F ni Naru: The Perfect Inside
Fuck you these are fine, F had the most problems and more than redeemed itself on the OP and ED
>Captain Earth
This is the only one I'm willing to give you, despite how much I love it, if only because the ending wasn't set up enough and the PURE SEX MACHINE of the Earth Engine Impactor didn't do enough. I wonder if the PSP tie-in game helps it though

S2 had some potential but completely wasted it.

The only good thing about IBO is McGillis and Mika & Akihiro's last stand.

G-Reco was shit dude.
The pacing was atrocious (though did anyone ever expect GOOD 2cour from fucking Tomino?).
MS designs were also nice.
But that's it.

Why did everyone have such a bad reaction to Kotoura-san? I only watched the first episode back when it aired, and all I remember is hate threads afterwards.

The first episode had a lot of people expecting something tragic and grand, or at least different, but the actual show turned out to be very generic

Ah, I see.

RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY RUNAWAY

>8.7k blu rays sold
Now post second season numbers
>tons of merchandise sold (Slaine's frequently sold out)
Cool horseshit bro

>G-Reco was shit dude.
It does my heart well to know that only idiots hate G-Reco

>last 7 years
>Last Exile

>including adaptations with unfinished source material
Why?

I don't hate it.
It's simply shit.
Tomino can't into 26 episodes.

He is correct. G-Reco is shit.

G-Reco is AGE-tier bad. It's all over the place.

>Was this the pinnacle of wasted potential?
Script was pretty mediocre. Music was mediocre. Staging was very good and MC was good. It's not like potential was wasted, because there was not much potential at all.

That would be Garo S2. Oh god why did I watch that.

G-Reco was fine, there was no problems with its pacing except maybe the jump from fight with the Kabakali jump to epilogue with Mt Fuji

>Asobi ni Iku yo!
No that was fine. It gave us the alf doujin.

It started off good with some really cute girls, and then I dont know what the fuck happened. Remembering it still makes me confused and angry.

...

Vividred should have been just cute hebe asses, but instead we go alternate dimension raven monsters

>he forgot about the sequel

AO was literally unsalvageable from the instant the villain was introduced

We got BOTH, stop complaining. Blue>Green>Yellow>Red
Those titty vents on Vividblue make me rock hard

>Rail Wars!
What? Why?
It was cute girls doing cute things and some trains involved. What more did you want?

Let's see if someone is old enough to remember this.

youtube.com/watch?v=dMavvNYRACw

Did I stutter? Only retards thought it was shit

>MC was good
MC and his rival are the worst part of the show.

Oh, G-Rectum defense force has arrived.

I'm pretty sure you stutter in real life if you enjoyed G-Reco.

Only retards thought it wasn't shit.

Daily Reminder How Long We Have Waited For Hero Like Inaho

>No cringe-worthy eeehehh!? reactions
>No drama queen, no crying out loud like shounenshit
>Calm, intelligent, reliable, highly competent pilot
>Brave enough take up arms for his beloved ones
>No 'I can't fight b-because muh peace' shit

He is literally the MC we've all wanted for so long.

>Script was pretty mediocre
No it was terrible
>Staging was very good and MC was good
Oh I get it you just have bad taste

and a gary stu

I almost liked Captain Earth.
Then Kuromukuro came and it showed what should Captain Earth should have been.
At least OP1 was good.

>Dat copy-pasta
Holy fuck, you still have it? lol.

>Then Kuromukuro came and it showed what should Captain Earth should have been.
More shit?

Thanks for the /r/ec, picked up.

Nope, it was trash from the start aside from the god tier OST.

This on the other hand

And the irony of course is that sites such as ANN, reddit and MAL thought it was bad and we all know how great their tastes are.

>you have a bad taste if you dont like g-rectum
(You).

Funny that I've never seen an actual argument as to why G-Reco is bad other than "I didn't get it" just people using poorly translated quotes from Tomino

The irony is you're the only person from the three you're talking to who probably knows MALs opinion on any anime.

That's a real irony.
You should probably check the meaning of a word before you use it.

Argevollen was 100% better than Aldshit Zero.
Too bad no one watched it.

It for the best to do so.

The art design is too bland.

Isn't Argevollen /m/ material?

Better than hiraiface in Fafner.

I did.
Thank you for reminding me.

Yep.
>who probably knows MALs opinion on any anime.
Because its on the first page of their site? GRecofags are right the hatedom is retarded

Relativistic cucking.

this

More trains?

There was already more than anyone except you could ever care for, trainfag.

God, that was such a post-2000 "also aired" mecha show, just like Buddy Complex, Innocent Venus or Burst Angel that felt like it was only made to fill out a program slot.

All I saw was caboose.

>Aldshit Zero
All it ever got as the show progressed and became stupider was food memes and "Slaine is a faggot" crap.
And then that based blonde commander got cuckt and killed.

I don't want to agree with this but I really do. At least we have that arc though, was pretty good.
I really wish we got to see more of Kayo and [mc who's name I forgot]. Although like he mentioned a couple times he was a 20-something year old man on the inside so it'd still be kind of weird.

it's on the level of of
>muh ecchi teaser wasn't hentai
faggotry, Rail Wars! was fine for what it was

forgettable trash

>am I kawaii? uguu
>in my robot anime
I'll take gundam seed tier hirai over this shit.

Still, from military point of view it has many things covered with great detailed.

Argevollen was pretty decent.

Liked how the entire squad got screen time and some development.

A lack of expectations to fulfill lets them be more original or creative or just whatever.
