What's an anime that you think didn't deserve to get a season 2 or sequel?
For me it's Girlfriend, Girlfriend, that show was just boring and unfunny.
Also Kizuna no Allele got two seasons and nobody asked for it.

Not sure because I didn't read manga.
But probably none.
Maybe the show didn't get me but every show have their fan that waiting to watch more.

Agree, that show was really boring and it only got worse with each episodes, the jokes became repetitive and unfunny.
I was surprised it got a season 2, but it was probably planned from the start.

Girlfriend, Girlfriend started derailing the moment they decided to make it a full length series instead of sticking to the 5min formula of its predecessor Aho Girl. There's only so much you can do if you have just one joke, so the longer you drag it on the less funny it becomes. Then the added drama and romance in S2 killed it off.

If an anime show gets a second season, then that second season is probably well-deserved. I think every second season is good. Too bad many anime shows never get a 2nd season.

Cause season 1 was decent I guess.
But I don't understand why they would make a season 2 when the LN is only 3 volumes long, and season 1 adapted all of it.
I guess season 2 used the WN as a source...

Many shows, and many anime. I know it's not really an anime, but Rick and Morty: The "Anime" did not deserve a Season 2. If it was allowed on MAL, I think its score would be somewhere in the 3 range.

You know what should get a Season 2, but hasn't yet? Onimai. WHERE IS IT?!

Rent-a-Girlfriend. I couldn't stand watching that loser MC so I dropped it, and it surprises me that the show keeps getting renewed every time.

5 seasons in 6 years seem excessive given its popularity.

Most anime will get a continuations as they are based on as most of them are based on a written source material in which they are long running and also due to Japanese readers/viewers feedback.

I'm going to try and be positive here (because there are quite a few anime with multiple seasons that just fucking SUCK) and say FLCL

I love FLCL

Progressive was okay

Any season after that, it makes "we're making more FLCL!" sound like a threat, not a good thing

Most recent is witch watch. I was hoping it would be as funny and entertaining as sket dance, but nope. It was boring and poorly animated, almost painful to watch even.

@RaiYou The main character basically being a cuck and cuck stuff sadly being popular in Japan probably explains why it got so many seasons.

The light novel was an adaptation and had already itself been placed on indefinite hiatus in the past, still defunct at the time the anime series was running, so there was absolutely no reason to feel constricted by or limited to it. If it failed to progress further in one medium, nothing says its manifestation in another should similarly hobble itself out of solidarity.

@MadanielFL I honestly didn't get the Komi hype. I mainly just watched S2, cause I was watching it with a friend. I will say I did mildly enjoy S2 more, though in the end it's a very meh comedy/romance series.

@MadanielFL I feel like the sole reason was for the popularity of the series. Not really the sake of the show itself.

I’ll go one step further and say One Punch Man didn’t deserve to get any season. Not because it’s a Shonen but because it’s crap. My opinion of course, no one has to agree and vehement disagreements are Welcome.

@Shinji-Spark I was fully prepared to argue with you but then you put that it is your opinion and no one has to agree. I can't argue after that

@awesomeoppy

I fully expect people to disagree with a lot I say about anime. Especially about well liked shows… by others just not me. Goes the same for anime I really like, I’m okay with people dogging on me about my tastes. I can take it.
