I've watched so many animes, and they all lose my interest halfway through the series.

The only two that held my interest the whole time was Fate/Zero and Hunter X Hunter.

This is on a list of like 100, and starting to give up on the entire culture or whatever the fuck you'd call it.

ANYBODY ELSE OR LIKE WHAT?


Well since your list is only in the 100's I'd say QQ; read some reviews before starting your next.

if 90% of anime is majority of the same since it appeals to the masses then I'd say finding the 10% with actual originality is going to be rare.

odd thing is, the 10% with actual originality are low budget or loved by the masses and praised for their creativity.

lol u cant expect everyone to come with new stuff everytime. its entertainment, not hipster material for you to shat on and criticized or become something unwanted or not watchable.
i think i am pretty picky about anime i generally skip some if it had certain tags on mal. and that rounds me to 2-5 animes a season
i mean sure it wound be nice to not see 1 more goddam school setting
but there is no way to avoid them.


my advice is to just lower expectations and pick a few that you think it will be amiable to you each season instead.

I don't understand the term "hipster" especially in this context... we're talking about anime here.

If I said I dislike movies that revolve around explosions, the blatant lack of character development, . These things that can be overlooked with a huge budget by many, I.E - Attack on Titan in comparison to Transformers, Sword Art Online and other garbage tier animes that just involve cliche, fillers, harem, damsels in distress, super strong/super smart/super crazy/super everything.

hipster being 10% you mentioned
the 90% is exactly what you said above super duper whatever
like i said, you have to take for granted its a form of an entertainment.
if you are bored of it then find something else, it's meant to cater more than the 10%.
