A friend of mine just sent me a link to Brent Spiner’s comedy series on YouTube called Fresh Hell, and I NEED to share it! There’s a second season under Videos on the Channel page. #StarTrek #STTNG #TV #comedy www.youtube.com/playlist

The WORST Anime of ALL TIME - 10th Anniversary: The Complete List

Auto-generated description: A collage of animated characters with a central figure, surrounded by a fiery background and the text Mother's Basement.

Part of the payment I must make to Satan to save my soul from eternal damnation is to prepare a detailed listing of all anime that Geoff lists in his Mother’s Basement videos on YouTube. Just kidding. I do it because I love it and want to help peeps retain the font of knowledge that Geoff shares with us in his various videos. Today’s video is a comprehensive breakdown of the ten worst anime of all time. Yes, the worst of the worst or the animated equivalent of emotional torture.

NOTE: This is a list of anime series to AVOID. These shows are NOT like the Hottest Trash which you can watch because sometimes bad == good. So, please don’t watch these, unless you’re a sadist… or a masochist who wishes to inflict emotional pain on unsuspecting victims. Knowing, according to G.I. Joe, is half the battle. Be kind. Spare your mind.

Now for the list. I’m sorry:

  1. Rent-A-Girlfriend or How to make your entire cast unlikeable
  2. The Promised Neverland Season 2 which never happened and makes people really mad
  3. Conception: How to make babies then use them to fight wars
  4. Seven Deadly Sins … “Really, I blow away mountains for breakfast.” - a mountain. Oof.
  5. My Life as Inukai-san’s Dog which is about… um, “animal husbandry” but borderline illegal?
  6. The Happy Science Collection: Religious cults, brainwashing, & propaganda for children!
  7. The Irresponsible Galaxy Tylor. I’ve never been more ashamed, and now consider it misspelled.
  8. Hand Shakers or Motion Sickness: The Animation, now with more sexual perversion!

For the coup de gras Geoff combines the two worst into a Mega Worst, both of which just happen to be Crunchyroll Originals:

2 (and 1). Ex-Arm - All the Don’ts and None of the Do’s of Anime & Visual Storytelling 1 (and 2). Gibiate - Mind control agitprop films for insane people being held at CIA blacksites

Once again I feel the need to remind you of the psychological damage that you can incur from viewings of the above listed media. Please take this list as a warning and keep this guide handy when reviewing new series to add to your watchlist in order to avoid accidental damage to the psyches of you or those you care for.

I love Mobile Police #Patlabor, an #anime #mecha series unlike any other. It’s been around for a very long time and will be returning next year with Patlabor EZY. If you are new to Patlabor, check out STEVEM’s fantastic retrospective. #animation #TV #movies #scifi #mamoruoshii www.youtube.com/watch

I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the loss of #TV icon George Wendt, known worldwide as Norm Peterson from #Cheers. Kottke posted this supercut of every time Norm walked into the bar. Pure gold way to celebrate pure gold. #obits #GeorgeWendt #TooSoon kottke.org/25/05/sup…

For oldsters: Watch this video to confirm your admiration for these shows. For youths: Watch this video to find new shows that’ll blow your mind. Conclusion: Any list that includes Cowboy Bebop must be accurate. That is all. #scifi #tv #90s youtu.be/uT42ldiYM…

Wow. How odd. #StarTrek #scifi #STTNW #SpongebobSquarepants #TV #animation www.youtube.com/watch

I legit sat and stared at the screen for like ten minutes after watching the pilot. GLITCH, creators of The Amazing Digital Circus, has a new series called The Gaslight District and it’s amazing. You’ve never seen anything like this. #animation #pilot #TV #adultanimation www.youtube.com/watch

LA is my hometown. The #Capitalism segment of #Hollywood is dwarfed by the creatives who make the media we love. They should be paid and not replaced by #AI. Now watch Mikey’s video about the sign. #film #TV #animation #music www.youtube.com/watch
