This is how yaoi fangirlism is born.

Anyway, everyone's going to go batshit over the cherry blossom dragon, for reals. You can do eeeeeet!

Worst anime I watched... I dunno, I usually turn them off halfway through and proceed to relegate them to the back of my mind... Oh, I know! Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch. Holy fuck, was that ever bad. It was about some mermaid princess who went up on dry land to do... something... and bad sea people were after her, and she ended up running into other mermaids (there were like seven in all)... and she could turn alternately into a mermaid or a pop idol. Then she would sing at her enemies and defeat them. She kind of sucked at singing, too. God, that was awful. Sailor Moon but with mermaids. I mean, in Princess Tutu the heroine dances with her enemies, but it's kind of part of the overlying theme that art > violence. This was just 'hmmm, what power would a magical girl mermaid have??'

I watched over ten episodes. Might have been closer to twenty. I wasn't so much fascinated with the badness as terribly depressed, and the stupid childishness of it sort of cheered me up in a comfort-food way. I'll never have those hours back.
