Tokyo Ghoul is so boring and overrated to me.

It is just one long, continuous yawn fest. And the pacing is bad. If the seasons were closer together, I would have remembered more of the story and more of the characters. But even if I recalled every single little thing, it just puts me to sleep.

I'd say the same about most popular anime.

Isn’t that just the anime? I haven’t watched it, though, so I can’t say.

[Beyond]

Yeah, don't force yourself to like it if you can't get into it.
I've never watched it, it looks cool but it just doesn't look like it's for me.
I'm sure you'll find something else you'll like.

[Sad Larry]

I actually like but it became worse.

I've heard that anime is a complete screw up compared to the manga, but don't take my word for it, because I never cared about it.

[Jonathan Sensei]

It was nothing like the books and nowhere near a good example of the anime-horror genre, but there are worse shows out there.

I watch around 25 anime shows per season, so I don't watch all mainstream stuff. I just mentioned the mainstream anime for comparison. Because these anime I mentioned are mainstream and popular and hyped up.

What anime do you recommend? I've never been into anime, but I want to try.

I don't like to suggest anime. The best thing to do is go to LiveChart or an anime website. Find all anime that is airing this season (Spring, Summer, Fall, or Winter). Find the ones that look interesting. Then watch them. Then after doing that for a while, you will begin to figure out what sort of anime you like. Then search by genre or tags for older anime. This Fall season anime is almost over. Fall ends in 29-30 days, and there are probably around 4 episodes left in each anime I am watching. I am currently watching (17) anime from this season, (3) anime leftovers from last season, (2) 100+ episode anime, and (2) short anime that are like 3-5 minutes per episode. Lately, there have been a lot of anime about real people getting sent into MMO type gaming worlds. Two of them that aired this season are Goblin Slayer and Tensei ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Slime Datta Ken (A.K.A TenSura, That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime). They aren't that great. Definitely not epic. But perfect for wasting some time.

Alright, thanks.
