| They both definitely had mid midpoints, but more engaging beginnings and ends. It’s not unlikely or irregular for these to never pass the “advertisement anime” stage as most are done this way deliberately. If they don’t sell merch/game (profitably), then the only profit is the manga/LN, therefore no point to continue the cost of animating an adaptation, just do enough to reel them in to reading. @RealityChanges You’re the first person I’ve noticed with a piece of Owari no Seraph as a favorite, I made an interest stack for it (nice to have a list of the whole series), haven’t watched it yet though. |

| At least Towa no Yuugure has good animation throughout the series unlike Water Magician who just baited people with the OP. |
| I find it more annoying here, since the Water Magician at least is an adaptation, so you have the excuse of being bound by the plot to a degree, but this is an original, so you have complete control over story and pacing and it still turns out like this? |

| Well, Mizu Zokusei no Mahoutsukai I completed but rated a 3/10 and it was my second lowest-rated series of the entire year after Ubel Blatt (2/10) and probably my least favorite or close to it. But again, I actually completed it even though it wasn't very good throughout and frustrating in a myriad of ways, or I wouldn't have rated it (I don't rate incomplete viewing experiences of drops, still currently watching, on holds, etc.). This series I just outright dropped after the third episode (not following any hard and fast three episode rule - some series I've dropped after 30 episodes and some after 30 seconds; it's just where it happened to land this time as the ending portion of the third episode had such a high concentration of obnoxious things in close proximity; enough to turn me off sufficiently) and what I've heard in passing since from some who've kept watching hasn't been encouraging or made me regretful of the decision - that much is for sure. I'd honestly rather watch more series like Mizu Zokusei no Mahoutsukai than ones like this, which is probably why I ended up completing it despite the low rating I ultimately gave it and expected to give it for most of its run while watching. Because series like that are more of the "lazy" variant of bad and dull/boring variant of bad. Ones like this are more of the stupid, actively annoying and irritating, schizophrenic writing style of bad. One can be okay to veg out and fall asleep to or watch with your brain half turned off. The other feels like it goes out of its way to systematically make the most obnoxious writing decisions possible and make one angry. |
