    we've all must have had an expierence where an anime charaters either does something stuipid, somthing that didn't make sence, some thing that was so obvious it annoyed you :sweat2: . like a mistery book when you already know who did what. i've recently had a few incounters like that and im kinda annoyed.

    i just want to know that im not the only one who notices things like this.

    This can be quite true like when an anime character keeps doing the same thing that will result in him getting the snot kicked out of him.
    You know like in the Love Hina stories when he keeps going into the hot spring when all the girls are in there taking a bath. You'd think that after so many times hd' learn not to go into the hot springs (and don't annoy Motoko). This is funny the first few times but if they keep doing it then it starts to get old and annoying.
    But not unless they come up with new ways of getting his bum kicked.

    I think the most annoying thing in anime, is. . . The 'anime fall'. Too many animes have adopted it, it is such a common thing now, that you can -almost- predict when a character will do it. ):

    I sometimes think my brother in animation took some of the magic of anime away from me. He pointed out an "annoying anime thing" how in almost all anime's there are scenes where everything else stops and only a character's mouth moves when he or she is talking. But there are still the high budget anime's where other parts of the character move while they are talking, like Miyazaki films.

    It's not so predictable (in certain anime,) but I really can't stand when something turns out to all be a dream.. its so pathetic.

    I think i know the feeling. You see something that you want to happen and so that the story may be able to develop in that direction but then just as you are getting to the best bit (and this also goes for real life) they wake up and its all over. These type of things can be really annouing even if you don't see them coming.

    Damn, this is a good topic! :anger: Lots of stuff in anime annoy me, and that's probably why I hardly like any series these days!

    The "anime fall," hahaha! That idea is DECADES old! It's been around since the 80's! They need to come up with new ideas for those situations (maybe slap themselves on the head, or do like what real people do: make an ugly face with an ugly noise).

    Hahaha, "friendship," that gets kinda annoying too. All those anime characters always get along so well, or they do harmonious stuff like hum while baking cookies, or how merely thinking of their friendship for each other makes them do better while taking a math test... that's when it gets too shoujo for me. Real friendship in real life is all about tough love!

    I'm also annoyed when small or normal-sized humans easily beat up HUGE, muscular men who are trained for combat (such as bodyguards and thugs... real thugs can be pretty deadly). And I'm not talking about crazy comedy animes where anything goes; I'm talking about serious or semi-serious anime series. And I also don't like it when a normal blade cuts through a three-foot thick stone block, especially when it's swung by a skinny guy (like Kenshin). If the character had magical powers or wasn't human, then sure, I understand, they can do anything.

    Oh, and the number one thing that annoys me is how it's so predictable when the main male character and the main female character almost always end up together at the end of the series. You can even predict it at the first episode of something, and you eventually would be right!

    Speaking of romance, I'm also annoyed at how the most clueless, hapless guy always ends up attracting all the females (or the main female).

    or the old 'dorky guy nosebleed' thing... everytime he sees a pretty girl, gets touched by a girl, etc... WAY overdone. there's even a scene in Ranma where every guy who fights Akane at school suddenly gets a nosebleed :bleed: See, there's even a smilie nosebleed :anger2:

    Height illusions

    What really annoys the crap out of me is when they have a character standing in a tree or up someplace high and they keep showing the same camera shots going up and down several times to give the illusion that they're up real high when they're only about 7ft from the ground. :anger2:

    Anime annoying things.. hmm I don't know if ecchiness count.
    Same here~! It looks like those female characters are very desperate.
    Thats Buffy! Im not against the idea, but if it was the main theme of the story, then yah it gets on my nerves

    [edit] I thought of something else thats quite annoying~ When two are fighting, they stop and have a long conversation about why they're fighting/about their past. [/edit]

    This effet osn't all that bad in some animes. In Burn Up Excess its actually really funny cause even though its not that realistic its still so funny to see blood flow out of one of the characters nose like a park fountain.

    That thing that happens when say, a guy with a sword will thrust in the direction of an enemy and give a long exagerated shout...then the same move will be repeated like three times from different angles. I get it! He swung the sword!!
    And also when a group of characters hear something 'shocking' the screen will divide into sections showing all of their faces one at a time, each accompanied by a shocked *gasp*. Really annoying especially when there is like 10 charaters that have to do the gasp thing (Sailor Moon).
