A fun little exercise is going around Twitter right now where users write controversial opinions on any topic of fancy. I personally like it because controversial opinions are always fun and quite frankly it is a lot of fun to see what people think is controversial. I will be honest though, I do not know if some twitter folks actually know what controversial means... However, you can judge if I am controversial enough for your taste. Controversial opinions go!


Akira is an overrated film and the upcoming anime adaptation will do the story more justice. Sword Art Online is not terrible. Nor is it great. It has been both at different times. Furthermore, it does not deserve the amount of attention it receives. Log Horizon is VASTLY superior to Sword Art Online. Gundam Wing and Gundam SEED are good Gundam series. Yu Yu Hakusho’s Chapter Black Arc is a superior arc to Hunter x Hunter’s Chimera Ant Arc. Dragon Ball is better than Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball Super does not suck. Fairy Tail is good and its final season was a great adaptation. Demon Slayer (the anime) is only okay. Subs are not inherently better than Dubs. Some dubs are superior to subs! Phantom Blood is the best (animated) JoJos Bizarre Adventure part. Bakuman is a superior anime and manga to Death Note. The Vision of Escaflowne is the best 90s mecha series Netflix has been a positive for the anime community. Just because an anime is popular does not mean its bad. Just because an anime is popular does not mean its good. Studio Ghibli is coasting on past success (and Ni No Kuni was terrible) Attack on Titan was massively overrated in Season One. It is now underrated. One Punch Man Season 2 was not trash it was okay. Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood is overrated (still great though). Code Geass is superior to Code Geass R2. I have no controversial opinions on Gintama I love Gintama.

I think that is a good enough batch of controversy. I hope you leave some controversial opinions in the comments while tearing mine apart. I also hope you had as fun a time reading as I did writing this.
