Though it's not an anime, (which hasn't stopped others from posting them), I find this next one to be so over-rated that it blows all of the other ones out of the water...
HARRY POTTER!!!
I just thought of an anime movie that I've always thought was over-hyped: AKIRA!
Some of the recent ones mentioned that I'd like to address:
Vampire Knight - Is that one even hyped up? I think I've only heard of it once, maybe twice, before this thread. Maybe I've just never been around its followers enough to have seen the hype.
Azumanga Daioh - I think it deserved the hype it had for the first few years, but there hasn't been much of anything new relating to the series itself to come out, so really any "new" jokes are just recycled ones.
The previous post about Haruhi. Though I do feel that the original season deserved the hype it got as a good show, but I've never seen CLANNAD, so I can't compare the two. Also, in case someone points out the second season, I have yet to heard something about it that would make me want to avoid it, though I can understand why some people might give up their love for the show.
There's nothing wrong with loving the dance; it's a fun one. The figures, I don't really collect figures so I could care less. Trying to marry Mikuru, that's creepy, but not unheard of. Unfortunately, others have tried to do the same thing with others from the past, such as Chun-Li and Cammy, and I think Lara Croft. As far as I know, nobody was legally allowed to do such a thing, but I don't know. Either way, that's just sad. (On the other hand, if it was doable, I'd try & get Yuri Sakazaki or Ukyo Kuonji).

The motivational poster regarding Edward as a stalker. Not only does it make him sound like a stalker, but it also shows how different the two of them really are. Shouldn't he be going to bed soon himself? Oh wait, that's right. He's not a real vampire! He glitters! He's just a confusing little glitter man! Where's my stake?
