Figured I'd make another version of this thread. What are some common tropes, cliches, or other frequent occurrences in anime that get on your nerves? Mine are as follows: -Dense male lead who somehow ends up with 3 school girls around his chabudai every meal (shiro, kohta) -Character who's incredibly annoying or useless but made to be a fanservice magnet to compensate (yoshida) -Character runs out the house with toast in mouth when they're late (daisuke) -Amnesiac tsundere who doesn't change overtime and forgets the calm, caring moments (louise, kaname) -Their masochistic male counterparts who continue to take beatings from them (saito). One reason I leally liked Kazuma from Kaze no Stigma was because he didn't take shit from anyone. -(not really a trope) but characters with nasally voices (except youhei from Clannad) -"monster of the week" -all the girls in the cast have really high pitched voices -excessive use of lateral camera panning -when they put 2 or more subtitles on the screen and expect us to read them both in a split second, much less know who's saying what since they all sound the same -When VAs change between dubs -When the show is supposed to be having an emotional moment but the music during or after ruins the mood I'll add more later.
