I don't like Detroit Metal City. I know it's comedy, but it also reinforces every misconception about death metal, which doesn't do corpse paint and theatrics. That's black metal.

After finally getting around to watching it after years of seeing it being regarded as one of THE great anime, all I could could really think was "is that it?" It's not bad (just kinda mediocre) but the way it's talked about makes it very disappointing imo.
Same. It's okay, but no more than that.
Also, I had the same reaction to Code Geass and Gurren Lagann.
