School Days (2007)
I can't decide if it's genius or awful....

Warning: Spoilers
I just... oh my god. I hate this show so much.... Well, school days looks like your typical visual novel- inspired harem...but it's so much more than that (please note that I will be spoiling the ending). The characters are boring and stereotypical, and if you don't hate them all after the second episode you will by the end of the series. It isn't all that funny unless you're laughing at the utter stupidity of the characters, and... commence rant. OK, so there's a guy named Makoto and he likes Kotanoha. Sekai likes him but she doesn't tell him and tries to help him date Kotanoha. but Makoto soon gets tired of Kotanoha and decides it's easier to get inside Sekai's pants and by the end of the series he's sleeping with like 5 different girls. Then he decides to settle down with Kotanoha and is brutally stabbed to death by Sekai. Kotanoha then goes totally insane and kills Sekai, cuts Makoto's head of his dead body and cuddles with it on a boat. There's only one thing you could say to that... He had it coming!

I can't decide whether this series is genius... or terrible. It could be genius because the creators could have possibly made us hate the characters on purpose so that we get a happy ending when they all die and/or go insane (to kotanoha's defense, dating that guy would make anyone go insane..). But (and this is more likely) the creators wanted to make a huge melodrama and failed... then they realized everyone hated their show so they decided to give the audience what they wanted. I won't rate this. I'll hold on to that much of my pride for now.
