| Tsuyokiss is one of the worst. The anime director didn't like the original story, character personalities or character designs so he completely redid all three. Why didn't they just hire another director if he hated the original source so much? Why did they agree to go along with it? What other anime adaptions have had their story, character personalities and character designs completely revamped just because the anime director hated the originals so much? It wasn't even recognizable anymore. |
| Most of them are from visual novels. |
Icyness said: Most of them are from visual novels. Yeah that's it. Visual Novel adapted in a 12 episode series, you have 50% chance to watch a miserable failure. Some Light Novel are on the same boat. And with that there's some fail like Negima. How can such an awesome manga could be killed by Xebec in the anime series and by Shaft in the movie... |

| I'd throw in a vote for the lesser-known OVA, Natsuiro no Sunadokei. The VN has a pretty good time travel plot, but the 2-ep OVA is way overcompressed, has pretty much no characterization, and barely makes sense if you haven't played the game. Yosuga no Sora was horrible in my opinion. I didn't read the eroge yet and dropped the anime after a few episodes, but what just pissed me majorly off is how they apparently would finish up each girls arc within a few episodes - something I can't stand at all. So you'd rather they awkwardly stitched a bunch of arcs together to have a sorta-harem series, the exact same thing people have complained about in other eroge adaptations?gamer2710 said: Huh? Majikoi didn't have an "English dub," though the Sentai discs do feature an alternate audio track with American VAs doing a rushed readthrough of the English subtitle script. And THEN there's [Majikoi's] English dub... Sentai, really. You squandered good voice actors on this piece of crap. JustALEX said: I agree, SHAFT certainly butchered it beyond recognition in their 2006 "let's make a Pani Poni Dash reboot with Negima girls" TV series. I will say that another terrible anime adaptation is Negima....then again the Manga ended so horribly, I don't even care. Arlia said: You mean how Xebec made a harem anime out of what was at that point a harem manga, and committed the grave sin of not having the budget for 150 episodes (or multiple 26-ep series spaced years apart) to cover the direction the manga eventually took? Granted, it has its flaws, but I still think it gets a bad rap. As with Love Hina, some of the anime-added material had more emotional weight than the manga, and whatever one might say about the anime-original ending, at least it didn't make me feel like I'd watched a 650-minute manga commercial. Speaking of which...And with that there's some fail like Negima. How can such an awesome manga could be killed by Xebec in the anime series nvoon7 said: They weren't making an anime, they were making a 625-minute manga commercial. Though from what others have said, I guess it pretty much had to end there, and the first 20 or so episodes manage to be pretty good. Who knows, if Jojo got a new adaptation after so many years, maybe there's hope for Berserk?Berserk's anime starts at volume 3, ends at volume 13, out of 37. It ends when Berserk truly starts. I don't see how you can stop an anime having not told more than a fraction of the story. FMA doesn't even have a right to exist, it should not have been made. The show is a money grab rush job. "The manga is hot right now! Quick! Make an anime!." "Shit the manga isn't done, what do we do? NAZIS!" Virtually all manga adaptations are made with a "strike while the iron is hot" mentality, though. They want the attention/buzz/incompleteness of an anime to drive manga sales while the manga's still ongoing, not after it's already over and the hype has died down. And as Arakawa collaborated with the 2003 anime's staff on the non-manga material, it can hardly be called a rush/hatchet job. Speaking of rush jobs, how about the way FMA '09 glossed over a lot of the early manga events, ones which were handled quite well in FMA '03? Or just omitted things like Youki's backstory with the Elric brothers, thus requiring viewers to have experience with the manga or the '03 version? Don't get me wrong, I agree that Brotherhood is better overall, I just wish it did some things as well as FMA '03 did.Now we have two FMA series', and there are people who refuse to watch Brotherhood because they're anime elitists and don't want to "watch the same schlock twice." |

| Chaos; Head definitely i want a remake of this anime!!! |
Paul said: Inb4 Aku no Hana Rosario Vampire came straight to mind. I have to second Rosario+Vampire. I wasn't too fond of the Akira movie either, even though most do praise it. |
 |
| Devils Survivor 2: The Animation. Granted, I've only played little of the game, but even from what I've played, the anime deviated from the game quite a lot. There are little changes that I found okay, but some were pretty bad changes. I like the anime itself, but the anime fails as an adaption. |
 |
| Its been said on here already but Rosario + Vampire is almost... insultingly bad |
 |
| Suzumiya Harahi, because of endless 8 or anything else which had potential animated by KyoAni |
| It's based off a game but DMC was just a trainwreck of a series. Also I'm not very far into the anime version of Gantz but it's nowhere near as good as the manga. |
| Beelzebub and Soul Eater (for the fucking ending) Rosario+Vampire first hellsing |

I don't see how you can stop an anime having not told more than a fraction of the story. If But no, to the anime watchers, the golden age arc literally IS berserk to them. The full cast hasn't even been introduced yet, and the story is just over. Wow. The anime watchers missed out on Isidoro and the loli witch girl. Poor them. Really though, the golden age arc was the best part of Berserk by far. Why wouldn't they animate it if it works as a standalone? That would have had to have an open ending anyway. Same goes for Gantz. Then it makes it to where, if they wanted to continue the anime adaptation years later, they would have to make some reboots, and rebuild movies, and OVA seasons to pile up a confusing anime structure. Some studios are impatient with their franchises, so they adapt unfinished works that have great length, and make up BS for their endings. The Gantz ending was shit anyway. Not like they could make it more bullshitty than it already was. And watching an animated version of "KEI CHAN TAE CHAN KEI CHAN TAE CHAN" does not appeal to me. Also everyone saying "R+ V" is confusing the fuck out of me. The second season looks to have better art so far, but overall the manga really isn't very good anyway. Everyone's saying the anime was just an ecchi harem, but the manga is pretty much just an ecchi harem. |

| Gantz was actually a good adaptation, because it didn't include the last stage of the manga. |
 |
| Maji de whatever, for reasons said Rosario, not because the anime is bad ( I loved the anime), but the manga is much more serious. Elfen Lied, for not including the character who gave the series its name. |
