Looking for some of the funniest trashy and bad anime? Are you constantly digging up bad anime just to end up being bored by how bad it is, rather than laugh at how ironically fun it is? You've come to the right place!

I've only put in anime that made me ironically laugh while I watched it. There's anime such as Ex-Arm that were funny at first, but they also became a pain to watch as the series progresses. I still included it as the first few episodes are unintentionally hilarious. The list is organized from highest to lowest MAL average just to show how it gradually gets worse in quality.

Also, please DM me suggestions to add to this list too, if you have some! Tsui no Sora is excluded for being an h-anime, but it meets the criteria elsewise.

I've watched several anime, such as Inferno Cop, Ghost Stories and gdgd fairies, that miss the cut and require their own stack. Check the URL below for it!

Update:
-- added Yuuki Bakuhatsu Bang Bravern (Brave Bang Bravern!)
-- added Cygames page on MAL

I just realized there is a connection between several anime I enjoyed: Zombie Land Saga, Granblue Fantasy, and Princess Connect!: Re: Dive. They are all from Cygames. I usually don't pay much attention to the studios and producers behind the anime I like, but in this case, I thought the stories were entertaining and the animation was a cut above. The fights in Princess Connect were especially well done. And I really enjoyed the music in Zombie Land. I've heard good things about Akiba Maid War but I'm afraid I can't vouch for the rest.

This stack contains all Cygames animations listed on the Cygames web site as of Winter 2024.

I just discovered the Cygames page on MAL. There are a lot more shows listed there than on the Cygames website. I'll only update this stack if I have something meaningful to contribute.

I watched all of these anime during Spring 2023

Top anime (in my opinion)

New in Spring 2023
Top 1. Oshi no Ko, It's a big mistake to think that this is an idol anime with a music genre (like I was fooled by the title and cover of the comic), because this is about showbiz, behind the fun, smiles, laughter of artists/idols/people in showbiz, there are The dark side of that world, this anime is really interesting because it is related to real life, cases like bullying, stalking, evil comments from netizens, etc.
Top 2. Mashle, the MC doesn't have magic powers in a world that uses magic, so he uses muscle power, this anime is really entertaining
Top 3. Yamada-kun to Lv 999 no Koi wo suru, a romcom anime where in my opinion every scene, especially the atmosphere, is made in detail about the feelings of FL, ML, etc.
The story is about FL who broke up but wanted to take revenge on her ex through an offline meeting in the game Forest of Savior, but there FL meets a real ML figure where her character is in the same guild as FL

Sequel:
Top 1. DR. STONE: NEW WORLD
When modern humans have to experience the stone age again, every episode always makes me curious, what other ideas do Senku and his friends have, what other actions, what else to make, it's really exciting
Top 2. KIMETSU NO YAIBA: KATANAKAJI NO SATO HEN
The animation is really good but in my opinion it's not as exciting as the previous arc in the Dr Stone anime. I also don't really like the use of 3D in action/people/monsters but the use of moves in this anime is still good

Completed Series: HATARAKI MAN
FL who works at a magazine, always prioritizes his work, can change to hataraki man mode (working man) but doesn't have romance, but the question is related to real life

Movie: BLACK CLOVER: MAHOU TEI NO KEN
Former magic emperor vs magic knight
It's really epic, the animation quality of the film is really good, maybe if it was in the cinema it would be better 🤣
In my opinion, the anime movie is mixed canon, even though the author made it, but the storyline of the movie doesn't affect the main story of the manga, aka it wasn't adapted from the manga, even though the characters are the same.
From the first minute to the end the war continues

Notes: I have definitely watched/read the anime/manga that I give a rating
I will not give a rating below 5, Rating 5 for me = 1, >8 = recommended
if it's not good for me, the status "Dropped" and no rating

Top Anime Opening songs of Spring 2023 (in my opinion)
1. Kizuna no kiseki by MAN WITH A MISSION ft Milet (Kimetsu no Yaiba: Katanakaji no Sato Hen)
2. Cantabile by Novelbright (Ao No Orchestra)
3. Shayou by Yorushika (Boku no Kokoro no Yabai Yatsu)

Top Anime Ending Songs of Spring 2023 (in my opinion)
1. Always and Forever by Serra (Kanojo ga Koushaku tei ni Itta Riyuu)
2. Kamihitoe by Uru (Jigokuraku)
3. Fireworks by MindaRyn (Kanojo ga Koushaku tei ni Itta Riyuu Ending 2)

Anime where Miki Shinichiro plays a main character, or at least a character important enough to the story.

do i need to elaborate?

Lowest rated anime that are not based on anything, so it cannot be blamed to a bad adaptation.


The requisites is at least 6 episodes, and standard episode length minimum (20 minutes).
