When you open and watch a new series, it has the most potential in the world but only hurt at the very last few episodes of being rush. While that did hurt the show, in your opinion, you still managed to enjoy it regardless.

One show in particular was "Charlotte"

Boy, did I enjoy its concept? Once you start to get relaxed by the premise, it's instantly rushed to the final story arc. It's really cool that it does feel kinda like an X-Men kinda show but regardless of the rushed ending, the story, characters, etc.... still made me appreciate this Anime but a bit regrettable that I still believe that series still needed a bit to be longer,

So, anywho... what series had the same feeling to you?

Yu Yu Hakusho started off slow in the beginning, but it got better as got into major arcs like the Dark Tournament.

Despite feeling like an incomplete version of a larger story, Angel Beats still has a special place in my heart.
Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked? Well, if that's what your intent is; to tempt me into throwing hands with someone as lowly and insignificant as you, then i may grant your wish provided you articulate yourself a bit better when trying to spite a person of my wavelength.

Mirai Nikki was supposed to be a good psycho thriller but the story in between started becoming trash not to mention the characters are also trash and the ending was shit but I still think it had the potential to do something great and the plot was also amazing. Despite the criticism I still like it very much and it was very entertaining too.

Fairy Tail

I never expected much from the series, but it was a fun show for the first 2 series. Final series was soooo rushed though. Duration certainly wasn't the only issue in the final season, but the pacing still stood out.

I also agree with Charlotte. If those final few eps were a full anime on their own, insta favorite right there.

I mean I'm not sure if Erased rushed their ending, but apparently everyone hated how it ended. Overall the show was still very good and I'd never hesitate to rewatch it!

Have you read the manga? (not a recomendation, just a question) I also didn't like the anime ending, but when I read the manga after I heard it finished differently I started to like the anime ending by comparison.

ye i agree with Charlotte but to me the length of it is fine, are you one of those fans saying the last episode needs an entire arc of episodes?

Gundam X was cancelled early in its run which meant that the final story arc was rushed to get an ending in the final episode. I stil enjoyed the more character driven approach and ground combat.

I still appreciate naruto + shippuuden but christ it lasted too bloody long (so I guess it's the exact opposite problem of everyone else here who just talk of anime that felt rushed).

Another is still kind of fun although the last couple of episodes went from "overall heh" to "full fucking psycho" in a heartbeat without any real explanation.

While I still like the series, in the anime in particular the ending of bokuben s2 was absolutely atrocious. Bad enough in the manga where it's rushed like hell but the anime is twice as bad.
"The problem with defining even an aspect of your personality by something that you like, is that criticism of that product appears to you to be criticism of you personally. I find it to be a very harmful attitude, [...] you can't rationally discuss a product because you've started to define yourself by its very existence."

Too short: Terror in Resonance (that was some good stuff)
Too long: Fairy Tail (watching now, it's pretty cool, but really long)

I really wish the Chaos; series' would've gotten a 24 episode series like Steins;Gate. Personally, I haven't played any of the LN's, but they're allegedly on the same level as S;G, so if they had more time then they could've been amazing
