Bishies. They ruin everything. They stroll in there, seduce all the girls (and sometimes the guys) and the fangirls STILL go crazy for them...

Fillers, those damn fillers, the worst has to be getting a new episode then realising three minutes in that it's going to be a filler. That sucks.

I justcan't understand... If you guys hate those "annoying" subs or dubs or whatever that's that you are hating, why not just watch the original in Japanese? Surely solves your problem if you just don't like subs or the voiceoverPlus, that's why I always say original the best! :D

The "anime" part of anime is what ruins it for me.

"Overpowered" characters. Honestly, Ichigo from Bleach came to mind (if you don't count the fillers) because of his so-called amazing gains. At some point I was like, c'mon... don't you think he's getting a bit TOO strong now? This obviously doesn't count for the recent stuff though those that know what I mean.Characters that never lose. OK, it's acceptable to have the protagonist win after a tough tough battle, but some anime do not flesh this out enough. Rurouni Kenshin (through the Shishio arc) is a good example of a character with godly skills still having problems, even more if you count the manga arc following that. It shows that he as a character has major flaws. Prince of Tennis - doesn't always have the predictable ending for every match. An anime I was watching that I enjoyed about halfway through is Tsukikage Ran. Tsukikage Ran is a wandering swordswoman whose skill is apparently unmatched... but even though the results are predictable I don't feel so satisfied watching how she got there. Animation that is not aesthetically pleasing to my eyes. I won't lie and say I haven't completely stopped watching a series because I just didn't like the animation... but I'll give it a chance. Maybe I'll go back to it. But if it puts me off, it's pretty hard to get back to.

Fillers, especially when they kill a series before it can finish properly. (R.I.P. Rurouni Kenshin)Dubs are pretty lame but they're easy to avoid.What I hate the most is 4kinds for what they did to One Piece.

Well you do have a point... but think back, the main character is always gonna win in the end as we all know. It's only the process in the anime; that we really are wanting to watch and find out how they solve each problem/ overcome obstacles. Like Detective Conan for example, When do you ever see him not solve a case? Or your example, Rurouni Kenshin(One of my favourite!), when does he ever "really" loses to anyone(Hiko Seijirou probably...)? From your point of view you are sort of saying "He beats his opponent in end anyway, so why bother watching it?". We all know that, but we are all interested in HOW he does it, the process is always different e.g. Kenshin goes looking for his Master to teach him his ultimate Sword Tech and in the process things happens. Same goes for Detective Conan, although he ultimately solves the case, but HOW he does is what we as audience cares; he finds little clues, picks up contradicting testemonies from others etc... Well I mean, inexpectable endings/consequences are good but it isn't the main thing that most of us are looking.

When they're dubbed badly is one of my huge turn offs. I used to like Naruto until it came out in english, the voices and that annoying catch phrase of "believe it" ruined it for me. (Sorry english kiddies, Naruto does not say believe it in the real anime!)Also when they use the same story over and over again, like Inuyasha. Nothing origional what so ever by the time they've reached episode fourty. I used to love Haku, but one to many times they pulled the whole, "Kohaku I have you back! We just need to restore your memories!" Followed quickly by "Oh noes! He tried to kill me and ran off to Naraku!"I also hate it when anime uses the whole "Monster of the week" bit. You know, where every episode a new monster pops up, they have a bit of trouble with it, and then they defeat it and everything is back to normal by the end of the episode. It ticks me off!And sorry, but when the anime is completly diffrent from the manga I hate it. Fullmetal Alchemist is nothing like the manga and I hate it! Sorry anime fans, but there is no little annoying kid named Wrath, Ed isn't the one who Kills Greed, and (spoiler alret) Roy kills Maria Ross by the ninth book!

Fillers, of course, but also when Animes start to sink into a pattern of fighting, losing, getting stronger, winning, etc. That's what ruined Bleach for me.

Yes, Fillers are somewhat irritating, extremely long pauses (Rei and Asuka in the Elevator - if you watch Neon Genesis Evangelion), as well as "extreme randomness", that is self-explanatory...
