I know this is an OT topic, but I just wanted to 
say that there was recently a HUGE conversation 
of "bad anime" on this forum that you might want 
to check out (it's probably archived on page 
three or four by now).

Personally, I never know how to answer questions 
like "good" or "bad" anime. There was a massive 
amount of titles listed in that "bad anime" 
thread - and many of them were shows I actually 
enjoyed. So if I recommend something to you, 
there's no guarantee that you'll like it. Depends 
on your induvidual tastes. "One man's trash is 
another man's treasure" type of thing. You just 
gotta throw caution to the wind sometimes and try 
something new. *shrugs*

Here's a suggestion: why don't you take some time 
to visit everyone's cel galleries? Chances are if 
someone collects from a title, it means they 
liked that anime enough to recommend it. And I 
know some folks have commentaries on their cels, 
which might pique your interest to a certain 
title.

While I may be known for my "After War Gundam X" 
cels, I don't know if I'd recommend it to 
everyone. Either you'll like it, or you'll hate 
it; there's really no telling. Some people 
think "GX" was better than "Gundam Wing", and 
some think it was the worst Gundam series ever. 
*shrugs* Hey, to each his own...

And in my humble opinion, "Berserk" is one of the 
best anime series I've ever seen!! I'd recommend 
it if you like dark medieval-fantasy stories. 
It's NOT for those looking for a silly, good old 
time; "Berserk" is full of violence, partial-
nudity, blood, rape and torture. This is not for 
kids. Although the ending will disappoint (since 
the manga is still continuing, it does not END). 
And please for the love of God, watch it in 
Japanese language, or else you'll be missing out 
on some fantastic performances by Canna Nobutoshi 
and Morikawa Toshi
