K-On! Season 2 - first season was enjoyable. I was looking forward to the second one at that time but the songs got horrible and Yui's character became more exaggerated. Just no.

Medabots' second season is trash compared the first one. It makes the first season look like Citizen Kane!

Eureka Seven AO. Horrible sequel to a great anime. The plot was a complete mess.


I still derived some enjoyment out of it. As an anime on its own I thought it was average-fine, but as a sequel to E7 it was shit.

If I could do it all over again, I would gleefully pretend that AO doesn't exist.

I enjoyed the second season of TMoHS, the endless eight arc was even one of my favourite parts of the whole anime, because without it, the needed sympathy for Nagato wouldn't be established. I think eight was the perfect number to accomplish that, and set the precedent for the movie.


They didn't need more than 3 episodes, 8 was overstreching it for no reason.

Darker Than Black, Chuunibyou

DTB turned from a great semi-episodic worldbuilding show into some convoluted plot with lolis that ended just as open-ended and unsaatisfyingly as the first season so it just managed to drag down the series without even giving it a conclusion.

Chuunibyou was just resetting everything basically, ignoring all the romance/drama of the first season and I just can't take it when shows like that decide to completely negate past developments just so they can do another season. Plus it wasn't even half as funny as the first season with the jokes all being old by now, so there was really nothing redeemable about the second season.


Yeah they didnt kiss so it sucked.

Eyes rolling.

My previous comment got deleted for no fucking reason so I guess I'll just leave it at this.

Haruhi (well i did not like the first series in the first place but second was just worthless)

Hyakka Ryouran - first season was acceptable but still mediocre but the second season was pointless, full of mindless fanservice and dumb humour without any real story or at least funny moments

Prince of tennis - first season was actually about tennis and is quite good but what the hell did they play in the second season ? That was no tennis, some kind of super power elements over the place and they called it tennis...

There 3 were the first I thought about.. there are probably many more I'm forgetting.

Some of the ones that come to mind right away are, Kidy Girl-AND, Last Exile: Fam the Silver Wing, Eureka 7: AO, Infinite Stratos 2, and Aquarion Evol. All were quite disappointing compared to their originals.

Date a Live II was pretty disappointing compared to the first season. It was short and the animation quality got worse.

Glad someone else mentioned Eureka 7. It's one of my all time favorites so Ao was a bit of a disappointment. To be fair, it would be hard to make a good sequel for Eureka 7, it really shouldn't even have a sequel because the story was pretty much wrapped up.

I'd say Index II was pretty bad compared to the first season. Was a lot heavier on the fan service and recycled the same plot over and over



Haven't watched Chuunibyou season 2 yet but seems like I might not want to, I really enjoyed the first season.

Because they just changed the protagonist, added some shitty asspulls and made everything shittier

Because it should have ended on the first season. No need to kill half of the cast with a completely unrealistic (and imaginary) disease.

Really ?

I personally enjoyed the fan service in both seasons, and both were funny. The characters are also cute.

I find it much more funny that those boring slice of life comedy shows that we see in every season like Bokura wa Minna Kawaisou, Gekkan and many others. Sex and panty jokes are more fun for me.

The second season of Chuunibyou was one of the most boring anime I have ever seen. There was like zero character development. Also the second season of Code Geass sucked except for the ending.


As if the 1st season of Chuunibyou is not boring. Chuunibyou was boring for me from the start. Just watched few episodes and dropped it. I could not handle to watch something for 24 min without smiling.

I don't think Darker than Black S2 was that bad, sure it didn't even come close to the first season but on it's own it was fine. Chuunibyou Ren and DAL 2 were absolutely horrible.


Every season on it's own can be good. But a direct sequal, like what the second season of DTB was, is different. Because it dropped in quality and in bringing a good second half of the story, it failed

For me was the second season of Honey and Clover. Not even close to terrible, because was not bad, but since the first season is so fucking good, I was surprised with the drop of quality, excessive use of melodrama, repetitive actions and scenes, cut of the gold comedy and forced interactions in general. For me, they tried to hard to be realistic. Of course I'm probably the only one that think that way, since the 2nd season is much more praised than the 1st.

I would have to agree with the second season of Haruhi, what was that shit? Also, Code Geass R2. They say the latter seasons of Minami-ke is pretty bad, but I can't imagine that since the first season is already a bad joke.


I have to agree with the excessive melodrama in the second season. Some events and stuff were unnecessary. Can you explain why Code Geass R2 is bad? I haven't seen it in a long time but I feel like with it being mentioned so much in this thread, there's def something wrong with my memory.

Kuroko no basket second season. Well it's not completely horrible. But it's so much worse than the first season.

It actually made re-watch the first season, and see if I liked the first season, because I was new with anime at the time, turns out that I actually find it quite good, and bumped the score from 8 to 9.

Wow, you have really awful taste

I admit enjoyed K-ON Season 1 a bit more after my recent re-watch but regardless Season 2 (And the movie for that matter) are better in pretty much every conceivable way.

Not only did Season 2 have far better pacing but it also had much stronger themes with more focus. Plus it also had better music, animation and more screen time for Azusa, Ui and Jun.

Now the Highschool and College manga... that's a different story

Maken-Ki 2 was terrible. I enjoyed the first season just enough to think watching season 2 would be worth it... big mistake. It has no plot to speak of and no character development at all. It just seemed to rely on the ecchi factor to maintain it's audience.

Easily this one. The first season is not that great yeah, but still somewhat enjoyable. But this second season is just annoyingly disappointing. From the production alone, first episode broke out with so much QUALITY and straight out to filler. Horrible first episode, suddenly a filler, then you know something is wrong.

Chuunibyou-I was excited for season 2 since I liked the first but when I thought about it I realized that there wasn't really much potential for good new content and it would ultimately be pointless.

OreImo-It's like they took everything that kind of bothered me with season 1 and put it as the focus in the 2nd season.

Darker than Black-I know that if I looked for reasons I could probably find them easily but I just cared so little for that anime that I don't even think about it.
