I know some of you won't like this but Full Metal Alchemist was unbelievably overhyped. I'm not saying it was bad but I just don't see on what level people consider it to be one of the greatest anime of all time?

The people I was refering to were people who thingk DBZ is like, something TOTALLY new and awesome. Makes me wanna bang my head against the table when I hear that. If someone likes 80's music but aknowledge it was made in the 80's go ahead, but it bugs me when someome sees something that's old and they think its completely new and different. I mean, I heard of DBZ when I was 6 or 7, and I played an old SNES DBZ fighting game at my cousin's place when I was that age too. To hear as a teenager people yapping on about DBZ like its the latest thing ever made me cringe. (Currently 22 years old.)

I agree completely! I had to force myself to finish the last half of finish this series just to see why everyone was saying it was so good. I would have only given it about a 7/10 at the most.

Several recent anime that I believe are overrated are:

• Kaiba
• Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann
• Hachimitsu to Clover

I really couldn't get interested in any of these, but many people seem to be giving them 9s and 10s...

Yeah, as insertnamehere said, the first eps get on your nerves to the point that I almost delete it, but then the emo drama ended and that's where you start liking it :P

The overrated (just cause MMOs can't run out of Narutos, Trunks, etc.)
Bleach, Dragon Ball Z, Naruto.

Though I like DBZ and Naruto.

Well , I have just watched like 5 eps of Naruto . And I don't know why you complain about the voices they are good...
wait, oh yeah, I watch Naruto (and DBZ and most anime) in spanish (Mexico not Spain) so the voices are really well done, even Ash's (from Pokemon) voice is great. Pokerap in spanish :D

Oh and they are de-censored too :P

I won't mention which anime are overrated in my opinion since all of them has already been mentioned more or less.

Underrated. Surprisingly there are a lot of these and I wonder why they haven't got the attention they deserve (but then if they do get it does that mean they'll be overrated too?)

Anyway, "Bokura no" is definitely one. I think it got washed away by more popular 2007 titles. Even if I prefer the manga's order of pilots over the anime, it was still an engaging story. The anime was able to capture the overall mood of the story so it's still nice.

"Noein" is another one that comes to mind. Past the weird art, the story is great.

Overrated: Trigun, Escaflowne, Serial Experiments Lain, Samurai X, Princess Mononoke

(Theres one more on the tip of my tounge but I just can't remember the damn thing's name)
