I'd say Golden Time to some extent. I do like the series overall, but felt that the first season was much better. The stuff with ghost Banri wasn't very good in the second half of the show, and the scene on the bridge in the last episode was very confusing.

both seasons were uninteresting. at least s2 didn't have forced romance and love triangles

Black Butler... and the first season wasn't even that great. That second season though, sweet christ what an abomination.
Also, Code Geass.

I dunno man, I really liked Oreimo second season :/ That wedding at the end was pretty cute

Psycho Pass was still pretty good, it just felt so different without Kogami

Aldnoah Zero started going to hell with the last couple of episodes in S1, and in season 2 it continued going spectacularly downhill.

Code Geass R2 was an absolute trainwreck.

Darker than Black - I like to pretend the second season does not exist.

Psycho-Pass 2 and Seitokai no Ichizon Lv 2 were shows with rock-solid first seasons, but with crappy sequels.

- Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai!
The 1st season was enjoyable, but the 2nd one kinda fell apart especially after the introduction of Saturnet (Satone).

- Gundam Build Fighters Try!
As the 2nd season of GBF, Try is highly inferior compared to the 1st season. The biggest cause IMHO is the characters, they are not as interesting as the characters in the first GBF.

- Aikatsu!
Boy, the 2nd season (Aika2!) was a huge mess because of "Seira Yamato" alone. Though the 3rd season (Aika3!) and the 1st Movie did fix some of the mistakes from Aika2, but the damage was already done and Seira has become one of my most hated characters of all anime.

- Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu
I enjoyed the 1st season so much. But once I got into the 2nd season, the first four episodes dropped my jaw because of how the female characters became nothing but dominatrix-wannabes to the males just because of stupid misunderstandings. That thing, I can't handle.

However, in Gundam, all life begins with Nu and ends with Hi-Nu. While in KanColle, all life begins with Nu and ends with Kinu.

Chuunibyou 2 instantly comes to mind, unfortunately.

Then we have Jigoku Shoujo 3 (yeah, it's not a second season, but you can consider it the second season of season 2 )

The Madoka film (I say that just because I didn't get shit)

Steins;Gate film

#1 Clannad AS....oh my god, no, it's not fucking fun to watch 20 depressing episodes only to see some bullshit HAX at the very end....season 1 at least had a good blend of melodrama and comedy, it showed various arcs....and fuck you if you think Nagisa is an interesting character!

#2 Haruhi 2009....the infamous Kyoani troll job that still leaves Haruhi fags butthurt as fuck....but for good reason to be fair....nothing more needs to be said other than "endless eight"

#3 Yahari love comedy some bullshit....it's like they made an anime filled with unlikable characters filled it with the utmost bullshit teenager angst melodrama and hoped people would like it.....naturally anime fans fell for this shit....jesus, what a fucking waste of time!

#4 Chuunibyou 2....completetly unnecessary, boring, and not fun at all.


Kyoani has a bad track record of sequels.....they're like the Disney of anime studios.

Stop at 1!

How? Lol. It went downhill, by a lot. Replaced good comedy with bullshit angsty drama and lots of boring vague babble, good way to ruin such an enjoyable show.

Fully disagree. Both fumoffu! and second raid are better in my opinion. The main flaw of the first season is the lack of development of the main plot, due to random comedy episodes. Fumoffu just concentrate in the comedy and second raid in the main, and more serious, plot. That's why I prefer the second and third season instead of the first one.


Same. The focus on Comedy and action in different series, was a good choice in my opinion.

i think it's better to separate it with arc. aincrad>>mother rosario>GGO = excalibur >>>> alfeheim.

so, SAO s1 = sao s2 overall IMHO. but since excalibur arc is just build-up arc, so excluding it, SAO 2> SAO1

The first season was fucking horrendous.

Somehow the 2nd season was even worse.

Oh my god. If first season was good, how bad must 2nd season be?

I rated the first season 3/10 and decided against watching the 2nd.

Implying the first season didn't have angsty drama.
