| 2017 Fall season is coming to an end, which show do you find that it's doesn't quite meet your expectation and abit disappointed about it? For me it's Mahou Tsukai no Yome (Ancient Magus Bride) I go in with quite high expectation because: 1. People have been praising it before the show even airs. 2. The art-style looks good. 3. It's from WIT studio Now it's up to ep 11 already, and I realize how slow the show goes despite 11 ep in already, but the plot doesn't seem to go anywhere atm, aside from Chise irrational obsession with Elias, which I'm not quite convinced yet. There're about 1 climax so far that almost going to make the show very exciting to watch. but nope, gonna retract back to soothing slice of life and more backstory. Also minor complaint on WIT studio, hey dude, you made Attack on Titan no? Why do I feel like this show often have static penal , and the combat scene is honestly quite mediocre? Was so excited on one cliffhanger in one episode related to Elias , but next episode being utterly disappointed. Maybe I should treat this show as slow burn romance instead of fantasy show so I don't get disappointed more. So far only the atmosphere impresses me. |

| Well, that would be every anime show that i dropped, this season. |

Swagernator said: Well, that would be every anime show that i dropped, this season. Depending on when you drop. If you drop it at first 1~3 ep, it's not a let-down cuz you literally find the show terrible to begin with. I mean those shows you're still watching but it doesn't turn out as good as you thought it would be. |
| none, everything I think is bad was bad from the beginning honestly I'm only watching half these shows because friends were nagging me to I will win that Black Clover bet... on a side note, Mahoutsukai no Yome is the first good anime Studio Wit has ever made |

| I watched few anime this season, and all of them were mediocre/ok or good |

| Shobitch The female lead is a cute kuudere But the humor and side characters are awful |
 |
| I wasn't expecting the new Kino to be as good as 2003's but it turned out to be worst than i thought.. i'm 5 episodes in though |
Ventus_S said: I mean those shows you're still watching but it doesn't turn out as good as you thought it would be. I have hope that Just Because would be something similar as Tsuki ga Kirei, but the more i watch (and read the spolers) the more i feel like Just Because would be another generic, boring, nippon-like romance teen drama. Hell, i read the spoilers, IT will be nother generic, boring, nippon-like romance teen drama. |

| 3-gatsu no Lion 2nd Season: first season was decent enough to be in my top 10 anime, but this new season is sometimes boring. i don't think it got worse, it's probably because i'm this far in and i'm not emotionally attached to anything happening in the show. inuyashiki: looked to be a fine action show, but turned into a fine comedy Kino (2017): mostly predictable, and i can't seem to find a point in each ep. Kekkai sensen S2: despite being crazier than first season, it's very forgetable kujira: cool setting and aesthetics, shit characters and story. Mahou Tsukai no Yome: wish they tone down the comedy, so i can always bask in its atmosphere Mahoujin guruguru: wish it was longer, and more adventurery :/ |

| Kino no Tabi would probably be it. I heard that the old Kino was pretty good, but never watched the show due to it being ugly as donkey's rear end. When I noticed that there is a re-boot coming, was totally ready for it. Sadly, this is the type of show I do not overly enjoy. The visuals were pretty good, however, the characters were not memorable and the events were not particularly captivating. Overall, as the show progressed it felt bland and even boring at times. |
Suddenly, someone slaps you with a brick wall. |
| Shokugeki no Souma: San no Sara The first anime of the season was super great for me. Afterwards, the animation and the quality were slowly dropping and in addition of bunch characters. Unfortunately, it dragged very much. I don't get attached to the additional characters, they seemed boring. The ecchiness wasn't that good either. The story is getting off nowhere. Sadly to say, a big downhill of this season. |

| Oh yeah, there was one disappointment The new Kino no Tabi has had two great episodes and a few ok ones, but overall has not been very good. |
|
| This season? Kino's Journey maybe, but that kinda fell apart starting with episode 2 so I don't think it counts. Honestly I don't think anything that comes out any time soon will disappoint me as much as Kado did back in spring. |
| i didnt watch them, but all of them for sure |

Agree with you mate. Season 1 still the best season of the series. |

| Just Because Like @Swagernator I also thought that it would be like Tsuki ga Kirei but after reading how the novel based on the show ended, it's already starting to be a major letdown |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Kekkai Sensen, i wanted it to be shit but its really good. Why cant i dislike what i want? |
 |
| I'll probably get a lot of hate for mentioning these 2, but whatever. Mahoutsukai no Yome Started off pretty damn great, but it became quite stale after 3 episodes. Not saying it's a bad show, but I'm more interested in the Elias-Chise relationship rather than all the typical fantasy things the show focuses on. Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou What hook me to the show in the first place was how, despite the slow, unenergetic atmosphere, there's this sense of danger looming around. Like, nothing can be trusted and shit can go down at any moment. The show loses this after a few episodes, and the slow pacing plus the desaturated color really work against the show. It also didn't help that I find Yuuri pretty annoying. |

But I do agree this pattern becomes very predictable and less fun to watch compare to 1st season which everything is fresh. Also all the villains this season is forgettable, which is kinda bad for a feels-good show like Kekkai Sensen. Have mix feeling to Kino's Journey. Love some episodes alot, like ep1, ep3, ep 10, but some episodes feel pointless to me.. |

| I need to have expectations to be disappointed which I don't have any whenever a new season arrives. I'm disappointmented however, still no GioGio. |

| Evil or Live. I guess I didn't have that high of expectations going in- but the plot at least sounded interesting and I was excited to watch it. It ended up either boring me or making me angry depending on the episode. |

LaLeLuLiLo said: Mahoujin guruguru: wish it was longer, and more adventurery :/ Literally just the previous iteration of the show when it was made in the 90s. Twice as long, so it has more plotline. Never seen it so I can't say for sure if it was good. Just throwing it out there that your comment actually has a solution. |
 Sometimes you just gotta realize that you can't watch every anime you want to. The struggle is far too real for that. |
| All of them I guess? This season is pretty pathetic. Except for Houseki. |
| Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you. |

| Juuni Taisen has good animation in the first two episode, i think there will be some detailed fight scene in it. But you'll see why it's very disappointing on further episode. |
 |
MortalMelancholy said: All of them I guess? This season is pretty pathetic. Except for Houseki. +1 Houseki no Kuni being the anime of this season for me too. |
| Juuni Taisen because spoiled death order and my favorite character is the only character didn't get a back story |

| I haven't seen their anime but I've already read their manga before they got an anime adaptation Inuyashiki - death note style cyborg bullshit Imouto sae Ireba Ii. - little sister syndrome, par on eromanga sensei, disturbing shit. UQ Holder!: Mahou Sensei Negima! 2 - exceptional concept of immortality, failed in executing cliche tropes Boku no Kanojo ga Majimesugiru Sho-bitch na Ken - boring dirty jokes |

That's a shame considering how many episodes there are. I have considered watching the old version and you say you liked them more. Maybe one of these days... |

| lol Now people are comparing MnY with SnK. Isn't most complains on this thread about what show took a different genre than what you would have preferred? |
| Shobitch is just an absolute disappointment. I mean, the premise itself should be on par with Seitokai Yakuindomo but the execution....is a double bogey. Net-juu No Susume has that 'it's going to be a great show' vibe. Everything about the show was close to on point but the ending was really unsatisfying. On the opposite, I really enjoyed Blend S and Imouto Sae Ireba Ii, although I almost dropped the latter after episode 4. |

| Juuni Taisen - It's a Nisio Isin work so it should be good. Nope, turned out to be one of the least entertaining survival game anime I've seen. Just Because - More like just a little too boring. |

jgames111 said: Juni Taisen:look badass, but the fights are just people dying by letting their guard down, which is lame and they give exposition dump on the character instead of the audience actually caring about them Ancient Magus Bride:Is alright, but does move a bit too slow and the character are not that interesting and quite boring at times. Uq Holder:bad adapdation of a manga I love. UQ Holder is not a disappointment to me cuz I'm disappointed way back when they change the EP3 entirely and add in some bs CG monsters. So I'm like disappointed way before it actually get to the worst part lolz.. |

One of the funniest thing on MAL are people comparing two totally different show together with all their honesty. This remind me of this thread: https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1363060 |
| Inuyashiki. Sticking anti-American politics at the VERY end suited WHAT purpose? Completely ruined the anime for all time. |

| Mahou Tsukai no Yome for sure, i loved the ovas so i was looking forward to see the anime but besides the animation i feel bored when i watch it. I have just seen 3 episodes though, i might continue it later~ |
