Bus Lamer - The Crappiest Show Ever?

Like how I did that? “Lamer” instead of Gamer? LOLOLOL?… no. Not even that horribly horrible pun can quench my rage. I’m so angry right now, you dont even know. Imagine coming back from a long day of classes and horribly average test grades and with the hope of grabing a little R and R only to realize that you were gonna get screwed watching the thing you enjoy most. How does any of that sound good? April fools was 22 days ago! STOP IT ALREADY, LIFE.

This show has horrible animation -Gonzo, how low you’ve fallen, having to animate this stupid story I hate you, Geneon-, the character designs are ugly, and not a single hole has been closed. Usually first episodes are the best because that’s the hook that would drag you in. All the money goes to the first episode, that’s like a cardinal fact. At least that would be good, right? No. Episode 1 through 3 were all like my cafeteria: disgusting and yet no matter how much I pray, it wont get better.

I guess Bus Gamer had a budget of… 50 cents -and they probably used that to buy a bag of chips at the vending machine across the street-. All they had was a bunch of paper, pencil, and a few Crayons from the looks of it. I guess since they’re doing a manga adaptation, Gonzo can be forgiven for the character designs, but man, they’re oh so very one dimensional. Here we have the megane teen who’s not even good at computers and two “strong” types who both have emo hair covering their eyes.

As for the holes in the story, there are more holes than Spongebob. The curse of this show is that it’s only three episodes long. You dont have time to develop anything. Do those guys eventually get all the money -I guess they do-? Why do they even need all that money -you never know-? What the hell happens to that women detective -just goes to show, if you work hard in life, you still get screwed-? WHY IS SHE EVEN THERE -not for fanservice, that’s for sure.-? WHY DOES ANYTHING HAPPEN -to spite me-?! AJFDKALFJLKSJFS?!

I guess that’s also the show’s greatest trait: I only had to suffer through 3 episodes of this trash. Now, I initially wanted to stop after episode 1, but I saw that there were only two left, so how bad could it be, right? HAHAHA AMIRITE?! Urrrgh. Kill me now. This show sucks SO BAD. Stay away. Though, if you’re reading this, you probably saw at least one episode. I’m sorry.

Oh and… I couldn’t resist -THOSE WEAK OF HEART, DO NOT SCROLL DOWN. VERY NSFW-:

Not even this slight lulz could satiate my rage that burns like the passion of a thousand suns.

Oh, and there HAVE been crappier shows (Magikano or any eroge adaptation anybody?), but this one really tries hard to join the upper echelon of crappy animus..

and in response to this: Dude. There was more rage than a Charmander can take out on a Bulbasaur on a sunny day, you dont even KNOW… oh and by the way, 1)I was also wrong about Gonzo, you didn’t catch that. Come on, work harder. Thank you P.Gels on pointing that out. 2) The title has a question mark -Crappiest show ever? Question mark?-, thus explains the paragraph above this. 3) You might like the show. I dont know about your taste in shows, it could as questionable as Lolikit’s age. 4) I’m voting for you at the ABA. LJ’s are the epitome of journalistic expertise. *thumbs up*

Let me (Sasa) add a small comment to this: Zaitcev should get his spelling right while he is talking about credibility. This is more than poor, and it makes me want to tear his skin off and make a steak like in the above-showed picture… oh wait, I already had a surprisingly good steak today.
Somebody should DDoS that site for good.

    You clearly haven’t seen Joshikousei or Soul Link.

    Ahhh, those were the days. I tried to forget about Joshikousei entirely. While Soul Link… well, I didn’t even finish the first episode.

    Bus Gamer probably had the greatest concept of any anime ever, but I was turned off by the gay as fuck character designs and decided it was going to be trash. I guess I wasn’t too far off the mark!!

    I dunno about greatest concept ever. If you’ve seen or even heard of Liar Game (j-drama), it’s again rich people just taking advantage of people who need it and it takes cunning to win. The concept of rich people playing games with the poor isn’t that new. How they do it may vary and could be exciting, but not that original at this point.

    To an extent, Battle Royale could be considered in this conversation also.

    Erm… dude… what makes you think that Gonzo is behind this series? They had absolutely nothing to do with it.

    Also, the reason why the story is so incomplete is because the manga was incomplete: it was intended to go on longer, but it got cancelled because the mangaka ran into troubles with the magazine it was published in. The anime is basically one big promotion-material for the continuation of the manga, which is said to come out shortly.

    I suggest that you watch yourself some more bad series. Really, series can get way worse than this one. ;)

    Ahhh, My fault. I meant to type “Geneon”, my mortal enemy. Strange though, the ANN page doesn’t list them either. I guess they’re just a sponsor (you see their name right after the OP). I was just so angry, I decided to blame everyone whose name started with “G”.

    And well, if the manga is anything like the show, I’d rather have this never continue.

    And trust me, I’ve seen worse series. I’ve stated that at the very end of my post. Lolikit himself was able to name one that was worse than this. I at least was able to watch 3 episodes of this.

    Hmm. More dorama with zaitcev…

    I don’t see the need to get so worked up. (Ok. You had a bad day…) Me, I just handle critics with apathy. Pretty much the same reason why I don’t write scathing anime reviews.

    On another note, I liked both Magikano and Joshikousei, (Bar the 1st ep) as fluff anime.

    Just one thing, Magikano is the show with the four princesses that live in a tree house right? Liru the wolf and so on?

    And why are eroge adaptions so bad? KyoAni has done great work with Air, Clannad, Kanon. Shuffle wasn´t so bad either, go Psycho-Kaede!! Or Higurashi or They are My Noble Masters.

    All to ones own I guess.

    I thought Bus Gamer was going to be longer, guess I was wrong. Oh well, it didn´t spur my intrest enough to keep watching. Not with that idiot who doesn´t need help once but twice in the timespan of like 2mins.

    Aha. It´s just that I think I´ve seen Magikano been used as the name for that. or my head has been messing with me :p Probably the later.

    Manga: sometimes Magical Pokan is shortened to MagiPoka, probably why you mixed it up with Magikano.

    I was going to watch Bus Gamer because I thought it would be like Dragons’ Den: the anime, but now I don’t think I’ll bother with it.

    Karura: That must be the reason, thanks for clearing it up for me.
