Top 10 Animes with the Stupidest Plot

Have you ever had an anime you just wanted to punch in the face because of its plot? Well, here's your chance to prove your high otaku-ness. Say which is your least favorite anime plot EVER!

1. Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo

   

   Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo is a Japanese manga series created by Yoshio Sawai that was adapted into an anime by Toei Animation. The anime originally aired from 2003 to 2005 and is widely known for its surreal and nonsensical humor. The series follows Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo as he fights an evil empire that is trying... read more

   ...I don't even know where the heck this anime came from. I haven't watched it, but I have seen clips of it and read about it, and it seems to be ridiculous! I'm all for uniqueness, but this is going a little bit too far...

   If the plot's too dumb for a 12-year-old, you really need to step it up. Though to be fair, I was a pretty harsh critic as a kid.

   I couldn't even get past the first episode of this garbage. The name and character designs alone are just stupid.

2. Pokémon

   

   Pokémon, abbreviated from the Japanese title Pocket Monsters and branded in English as Pokémon the Series, is a Japanese anime television series adapted for international audiences. It was first broadcast in Japan on April 1, 1997, and in the United States on September 8, 1998.... read more

   While on its own the anime can be good, there have just been SO many series. Like, it's wash, rinse, repeat with each new game being made into a show. Ash wants to be the best. He gets a female and male sidekick. The female wants a separate path. Ash fails in his goal, and he goes to another region.

   Like, even the GAMES have a better plot than the anime.

   The original Pokémon was great, but the remakes sucked!

   I don't care about all of the new characters, and it's the same thing over and over again. Team Rocket tries to capture the Pokémon but fails, and Ash is trying to be the best.

   In one movie, Mewtwo couldn't beat Mew, which is stupid.

3. The Qwaser of Stigmata

   

   Seikon no Qwaser, also known as The Qwaser of Stigmata, is a Japanese manga series written by Hiroyuki Yoshino and illustrated by Kenetsu Satō. The manga ran from 2006 to 2016 and features a mix of action and supernatural elements. It centers on characters who can manipulate elements such as iron and... read more

   A series where characters battle using various elements - not like water and fire, but off of the periodic table of elements? Sounds awesome!

   ...Wait, they get their powers recharged HOW!?!

   It's so bad it's even disturbing. I don't care if it's hentai!

   Here's a little synopsis for you: These people have superpowers called qwasers, and do you know where they get their magical energy from? THEY GET IT FROM DRINKING VIRGIN WOMEN'S BREAST MILK!

   I know that anime can get weird, but THIS is ridiculous!

4. Midori Days

   A boy wakes one day to find out a girl is his hand!

5. Beyblade

   

   Beyblade is a 2001 Japanese anime television series based on Takao Aoki's manga of the same name, which was inspired by the Beyblade spinning-top toys. The anime was produced by Madhouse and directed by Toshifumi Kawase. It helped expand a franchise that includes additional anime seasons, movies, and... read more

   Why did they make an anime based on a boring toy that nobody plays with anymore?

   Some random kids spinning tops. NEXT!

6. Soul Eater Not!

   

   Soul Eater Not! is an anime spinoff and prequel to the main Soul Eater series. It follows a new group of students at Death Weapon Meister Academy as they navigate life, training, and friendship. The series has a lighter tone and focuses more on character development than its darker predecessor.

   This is a disgrace to the original show. Animations are terrible. Plots are terrible. Characters are terribly thought out. What's to like?

   The opening is annoying. The character designs changed in ways that make you want to cringe. Horrendous. Asymmetrical garbage.

   This is a horrible remake of the masterpiece Soul Eater.

   This spin-off sucks. Enough said.

7. Fairy Tail

   

   Fairy Tail is a manga franchise created by Hiro Mashima. It was adapted into an anime series produced by A-1 Pictures and Satelight, which first aired in Japan on October 12, 2009.

   The Familiar of Zero is a Japanese light novel series written by Noboru Yamaguchi and illustrated by Eiji Usatsuka. The story follows Louise, a young magician, and her human familiar, Saito, through romance, adventure, and magic.... read more

   Isn't it just a tad bit creepy that a girl with pink hair keeps a poor teenage boy as a pet? Child abuse!

   The pink-haired girl literally turns another boy into her pet, which is harassment.

10. School Days

    

    An anime series was developed by TNK with joint production by Avex Entertainment, Lantis, Marvelous Entertainment, Pony Canyon, and Jinnan Studio.

13. DearS

    

    This is really degrading to both men and women.

The story follows the everyday lives of four high school girls: Konata Izumi, Kagami Hiiragi, Tsukasa Hiiragi, and Miyuki Takara. It is known for its charming moe characters and frequent... read more

    I agree with RaineSage. But since most of us are humans that CAN eat and know what we are doing, this anime is becoming useless and pointless.

    It would be useful if a cyborg watched it... one that couldn't eat.

    Bright and colorful girls talking about useless garbage!

15. Mars of Destruction

    

16. Death Note

    

    Death Note is a Japanese anime television series based on the manga created by Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata. The story follows Light Yagami, a gifted high school student with a strong sense of justice who discovers a notebook that allows him to kill anyone by writing their name in it.

    Death Note is boring. I couldn't finish it because I was bored to tears.

The story follows Ryuko Matoi, a transfer student who enters a mysterious high school while searching for her father's killer. The series is known for its dynamic animation, intense battles, and unique clothing-based power... read more

    Clothing taking over humans? What kind of a dumb plot is that? This has to be the worst plot possible in an action anime!

18. Bible Black

19. Hetalia: Axis Powers

    

    Hetalia: Axis Powers is a Japanese webcomic created by Hidekaz Himaruya that was later adapted into an anime series that debuted in 2009. The series anthropomorphizes countries and depicts them as characters interacting in humorous scenarios inspired by history, politics, and cultural stereotypes, with... read more

    I found Hetalia very difficult to watch, but I don't see how it had a stupid plot. It had no plot at all!

    The dumbest anime I ever saw. So racist to Italians it's not even funny. Even the name is short for 'hetare Italia' ("worthless Italy"), and the Italy character is a wimpy kid who eats pasta all day.

20. Zatch Bell!

    

    Debuting in 2003, this anime series is based on a manga written and illustrated by Makoto Raiku. The storyline centers on Kiyo Takamine, a boy who partners with a magical creature named Zatch to compete in a battle that will determine the next Mamodo King.
