Nagirah said: they fixing baby steps pacing problem. seriously, it manga has soo dragged pacing. glad the anime compress them. they also producing many decent series. also osomatsu-san that currently airing is rocking! i don't said they are good, but they are soo incosistent. that's why i still have hope for upcoming sousei no onmyouji.TheCodeTrigger said: Studio Pierrot Ruined Everything. I'm going to print this quote and frame it on my wall. Tokyo Ghoul had so much potential, but the manga got completely butchered. |

| From the short list of anime I've watched, I'd say Angel Beats and Mirai Nikki in my opinion. |
| Dakara boku wa H ga dekinai. after episode 8 it wasn't the same anymore.. Kiss x Sis, also started rlly good but the scenes became cliché. |

| Zankyou no Terror. I was so excited for an interesting plot with complex anti-heroes and intense, emotional moments, but it just... The first few episodes were great, but the latter 2/3 just really fell flat of my expectations. |
FlatEight said: Charlotte started out fucking awesome. A manipulative dickhead as the MC, and a rather interesting take on "teens with super powers". Of course, it just went downhill with its pacing and generic anime shit, but even then had some pretty great moments (which still ended up being shit on by ass-pulls and plot conveniences later on). This. I was so happy to have a manipulative anti-hero MC with an actual personality, but he just devolved into every other bland protagonist in creation. Not only that but all the interesting characters got no screentime, there was awful forced romance, too many ass-pulls and THAT LAST EPISODE. Other ones: Mahouka (too many info dumps and an OP MC who bored the hell outta me...to me, this is how NOT to write an OP protag. It's a shame since the world and side cast were interesting) Yuri Kuma Arashi (was still good, but character relationships seemed a tad forced and the world could've been further delved into) Death Parade (it was still good, just not as good as it could've been imo) Gangsta (if only some studio like Bones did it) Diabolik Lovers (if handled better, it could very well have been considered a deconstruction of reverse harem anime of sorts) Kamisama no Inai Nichiyoubi (downhill after episode 3) Seven Deadly Sins (pacing was terrible...nothing ever sunk in because everything was moving at double the speed it should've been) |

Istoleyourneko said: Ofcourse School days, wtf was that yandere scene?! it ruïned it! While I don't agree with bold, I also have to say School Days. The anime had enough set up to create an interesting deconstruction of the harem genre, but it fell flat on its face with a completely unlikable MC in Makoto and uninteresting girls besides Kotonoha and Sekai. |

| GATE - the concept of modern warfare vs medieval era is really cool, fighting against dragon with Fighter, or RPG-6 really great. Too bad, it wasted by nonsense politic and edgy scene just to ensure that this is seinen anime. And now, Wut? You could fight dragon with squad full-equipped warfare, but you choose to fight it while dating with your harem? pffttt.. Akame ga kiru - bad original ending, they force to rush and end it, and now this thing turn into dust, with such bad adaptation they fail to make anime watcher want to switch over to manga. Meh |

| One word: Charlotte. After watching this series I come to realize, that anime sometimes is just an advertisement to it's source material / upcoming adaptation. |
 |
| Kinda agree with the second one but (I know this will sound really generic) you should read the BDGIM manga. The last episodes skipped a lot of stuff. |
| I would say Umineko no Naku Koro Ni and 11 Eyes. |
| A Story will always come to it's end. The thing is, will you move on after it's over? |

Manuftw said: Akame ga Kill only needed to follow the manga and animate the clown scenes. Then would have been a 11/10.Milk_is_Special said: Akame ga Kill doesn't really have a lot of comedy and it also doesn't really have a lot of fanservice so I don't understand your point of view with that. Also NGNL is a ecchi show so it is supposed to have fanservice. AGKjust needed a longer story spread the deaths out more and follow the mother lovin manga |

| How amazing would A Certain Magical Index have been if Touma wasn't a lame MC and if Index wasn't an 99% useless ungrateful brat? Also Hell Girl could of been amazing if it had an actual story |
| Cube x Cursed x Curious would have been a great anime if they put some story instead of non-stop fan service on it.. |

I'm on season 1 but the entire premise is some doll-chick moving in with some vamps. Was there much room for deconstruction in the first place when considering the premise itself is so fantastical? Maybe, maybe not. I just thought there could've been some potential to be had if the guys personalities and pasts had been better developed. In a lot of reverse harem and shoujo series, the cold, sadistic, "bad boy" love interests are often idealised and any questionable or downright abusive actions towards the heroine are even romanticised. I didn't think that was the case in DL...the abuse doesn't feel romanticised and it was actually pretty hard to watch. It's the same with vampires; they're typically sensualised in not only (romance) anime, but in novels, films and other media as well. With that in mind, Diabolik Lovers feels like it's giving us the gigantic middle finger by saying "hey you want a vampire harem with actual vampires?...Well here it is! Enjoy the ride, because poor Yui sure as hell won't!" That's why I thought it could've been a bit of a deconstruction. Of course, that's all hypothetical since the potential is wasted with a plot that makes little to no sense, a heroine with about as much personality as a crushed walnut and a shit ton of underdeveloped characters with half baked backstories and personalities. I liked the music though and everyone needs that one guilty pleasure anime. XD |

| I've got to say Plastic Memories was the biggest let down. It had such a good idea and then wasted it on some shitty romance... why? |

| Akame Ga Kill - because they made a filler ending. |

pritzZ said: The thing with Tokyo Ghoul is that the first season took all the gore and fights from the manga, and ignored any character development. Root A is nuts. But Pierrot tried.My picks for wasted potentials are - Bleach, Naruto, SAO, Akame Ga Kill, Tokyo Ghoul, NGE and Psycho Pass. Among these Tokyo Ghoul and NGE are the biggest disspointments for me. But SAO is a close second though. |
| Inuyasha as the anime dragged on a littlebit Nevertheless I still like and the Happy End ^_^ |
 |
| SAO, Akame Ga Kill, Tokyo Ghoul (especially Root A), FT Those four series have a good animation but lacks of chara developpment and/or good story. Log Horizon and DBSuper have the worst storytelling I've ever saw in an anime. It's soooo fucking slow and boring...Base story is nice, but...they fucked up everything with a bad storytelling and a bad animation. |
