† RazorDan Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Opposite to the letdown thread. Which anime did you have low expectations of but it surprised you by being awesome?!Mine are: Baka to test, Full Metal Panic, Genshiken, Spice and wolf, GTO, Eden of the East, Bamboo blade, K-ON, Rumbling Hearts, BECK and NANA!

DrumRoll Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 ghost hunt. Went in expecting little more than a few hours reprive from my life and ended up being a firm favourite:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legado Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Birdy The mighty and darker then black. Now they are one of my top anime in my list. Gotta love it when anime surprise ya! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idl12 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Ichiban ushiro no Daimaou, at first I thought, just another generic ecchi series, to some extent it was, but it was also so much more as well, it's now one of my favorite Ecchi series.

mrheihachi Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 I have to say Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. (Bear with me )I didn't know how different the original was from the manga and I didn't understand why they were remaking what in my mind was already a great series. Plus the first few episodes seemed ridiculously similar in both series.Now that I have had a chance to see the differences I am amazed and I love both series in their own way. So it definitely went against my initial impression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kateyene Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 I really didn't think much of Dragonball Z but I started watching it one time on TV and it seemingly had me hooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Byakuya_Boy Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 One Piece, the summary kind of made it seem boring but watching the series made me realise how awesome it truly is. Fairy Tail, the same scenario as One Piece and finally Gintama, at first I was like WTH Edo with bikes and technology but watching the show made me realise I was wrong.

Avith Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 I gotta say Air Gear. Some friends of mine kept telling me about it when they discovered it. I asked what's it about, and it sounded very stupid to me. I then decided to read a description, and still didn't seem interesting, so I just decided not to watch. A few years later (in mid 2010 I think) I decided to try it anyways. To this day it is one of my top favorite animes still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
