| Tokyo Ghoul - It was poorly adapted and got even worse from season 2 Darling in the Franxx - It was really interesting and great up to episode 14-16 and then everything was rushed and had a bad ending. Bleach- It was peak shounen till the SS arc and then gradually the quality went down. Still a great watch Fairy Tail- It was really enjoyable up until the Grand Magic Games arc and the Tartaros arc. The last season and the war arc was total BS but still kinda enjoyable |
| * Darling in the FRANXX. 15 episodes decent that went down hill. One of the worst ending from the anime I watched. * Tokyo Ghoul (obviously). 1st season good, second mediocre, season 3&4 utterly garbage.. Studio Pierrot ruined such a good story. * Toaru Majutsu no Index. First 2 seasons were good but the 3 was so rushed. Way too many factions were introduced in a small amount of time * Nanatsu no Taizai. First 2 seasons were good but then Studio Deen came with horrible animation and stupid censorship that looked like something from Hentai |

| Fairy Tail's first arcs were quite funny and enjoyable, then...well it became Fairy Tail. SAO's Aincrad arc was nice, but then we got Alfheim Tokyo Ghoul's first season was good too, but it got progressively worse season by season, and the last one was a complete disaster Japan Sinks' first episode was pretty good and the second one was nice. Then it completely blew up un mind-air with the 3rd episode and the rest was awful Promised Neverland, the anime was excellent but the last manga arcs were disappointing and the ending is a huge deception One Piece, mostly after the timeskip because of the infamous pacing and animation. Plus, the anime became weirder since Big Mom's arc and it's even worse in Wano, and I really don't like it Babylon, which had a fantastic first 7 episodes but then did a 180 and changed everything. It was still somewhat good but a huge letdown after the first part. |
| The first thing that comes to mind for me is Another which had some pretty good atmosphere and mystery in its earlier episodes due in large part to its quality ost, but while the initial questions were intriguing all the answers to those questions ended up being pretty underwhelming, and the conclusion to the show was written pretty terribly and just came across as stupid to the point of hilarity. More recently there was Babylon which was an intriguing thriller mystery in a semi-realistic setting and had a really good first three episodes and was still good until episode 7 which was also pretty standout but episode 8 and onward decided to pivot into a monotonous deluge of philosophy and completely abandon what had made its earlier episodes so entertaining to watch. |
   |
| Literally any anime with more than 12 episodes. |
 |
| Tokyo Ghoul for sure, I thought it wasn't that bad in the beginning when I watched and completed it, but after I read the manga I realized how little justice the anime served the manga |

| Darling in the Franxx. It started off as a pretty cool mecha anime but then it went down the drain. Cucking, shit characters, complete mess of a plot |

| As much as I enjoy it the way Fairy Tail got worse and worse is something I definitely found frustrating. Towards the end I just stopped caring about the plot and any of the fights, just focussing on the feel good romantic/friendship moments. That being said, the sequel series 100 years quest is a lot better than the final few arcs of the main series and I'm enjoying it a lot more. Death Note is another one but I don't think it's as bad a case as Fairy Tail. |

| SAO - probably the biggest disappointment in my book (a mishmash of RPG, mature, harem, you name it) Fairy Tail Nanatsu no Taizai - I don't always point towards MAL averages but there's a reason why the 3rd season flopped as it did. Just saying. |
| Tokyo Ghoul because of the rush adaptation. but I also don't like manga because I'm not satisfied with the ending like something's missing. In my opinion, SAO is only good in season 1 and Ordinal Scale, because now SAO is no longer what it used to be about the game world, but just like Isekai like other anime. another one that makes me sick because a lot of anime is too generic to make the American government as its enemy. and now they are defending the npc, besides that there is Zankyou No Terror and Death Note. Same as Sao, make America as your enemy. Psycho Pass season 1 is good but since season 3 the show has lost its way. it's no longer about the detective police genre anymore but just a mere action genre. with an unattractive main character. |
"Anime Was a Mistake."- God  |
| i know its just episode 2, but Deca-Dance. when episode 2 came it became the fastest drop i've ever done. |
 |
| Beelzebub was pretty fun for a while but it just dragged on and on and on after a while, and then they gave us that dumb ending. |
     |
| Karakuri Circus. Eps 1-12 or 13 were pretty good.The story moved pretty smoothly and the animation was nice. Everything after that was all over the place to the point where it was confusing to watch |
 |
| Death Note - was phenomenal until after episode 25, for obvious reasons The Promised Neverland - not the case for the whole first season anime, but once second season comes out people will be disappointed for sure Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S - absolute masterpiece until after episode 16, I had to drop after cause I heard the rest were fillers My Next Life as a Villainess - entertaining until after episode 7, the rest were fillers or stupid Erased - kinda obvious why, the ending was dumb Sword Art Online - synopsis had so much potential and episodes were initially interesting, then turned into a boring series about a perfect guy surrounded by "cute" girls Hataraku Maou-sama! - loved loved loved the first episode, everything went downhill after that |
  "As promised, all that you seek, all that we desire, is prepared up there. On top of the Tower." |
| Here's a couple in alphabetical order: - Charlotte: It started out as a decent high school, supernatural mystery series with an interesting premise and solid humor, but was completely ruined by thriller elements thrown in without any foreshadowing and one of the worst final episodes I've ever seen. - Erased: This one probably doesn't deserve to be on the list as it's actually solid overall. It's great for the first 8 episodes or so, but the last four are extremely rushed and the ending is simply terrible. - Fairy Tail: I don't know if this counts, as it's pretty much all bad, but Fairy Tail had a solid first couple of episodes with fun and interesting characters and solid humor, but it quickly devolved into one of the most cliche, predictable, and badly written battle shonen series I've ever seen. It's a very popular guilty pleasure show to be sure and that's about it. - K: The show had a solid first season that was ultimately rushed, but with every new sequel that came out, the writing got worse and the plot got dumber overall. - Kyoukai no Kanata: This is my biggest guilty pleasure in anime. It's a show that should have been great and was really good for the first couple of episodes, but due to some unbelievably stupid writing decisions, character moments, and an unability on the studios part to commit to the Dark Fantasy genre, this show just got worse and worse with every episode. I heard the movies were really good, though I haven't seen them and cannot comment otherwise. - Pokemon: Ever since Diamond and Pearl ended and Brock left the show, it just hasn't been the same. The writers are clearly running out of ideas for new pokemon (I mean, a fucking ice cream cone pokemon? Seriously?) and the new characters are simply terrible (with exception) that I just can't watch anything afterwards. - Re: Zero (as of Season 2 part 1. It could still get better over time): This is going to be an unpopular one on this list, but while the first season was a good introduction to a massive fantasy world with mostly solid characters and a great story premise with tons of potential for world building and story expansion, the second season (except for the first 4 episodes) squandered most of it, was extremely poorly written, left tons of questions that needed answers/resolutions unanswered, and completely failed to build its world or expand its lore in any meaningful way. - Sword Art Online: The same deal as Fairy Tale, except it had a better idea and premise and somehow ended up being even worse. - The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya: This is probably the one that arguably doesn't deserve to be on the list since the final chapter of the Suzumiya saga we got (the movie) was a borderline masterpiece and most of the show overall is solid, but the second season was such a slog-fest, especially with 8 of the 12 episodes being literally the exact same episode that, if you took the movie out of it, you can see how the quality dropped over time. I can see the dumb fun of Fairy Tail, but I simply cannot understand why so many people love this show. - Yugioh: To be fair, Yugioh was never a particularly good show to begin with. It was dumb, fun, and cheesy fluff that ended up producing one of the most addictive card games I've ever played, but after the original show ended and they went on to produce new stories with a completely different cast of characters, it just went down hill. The GX saga is okay, but everything after that is subpar garbage, and the addition of new card types ended up ruining the real-life card game as well by introducing overpowered cards and strategies that you just can't compete against unless you use the same deck and the same overpowered strategy. |
| Yesterday wo Uttate and Sword Art Online. Pretty self-explanitory. |
| Quite a lot actually. Attack on Titan - Eren too annoying (Still gonna watch next season though) Re-zero - Too much crying (still gonna watch the next part) Fairy Tail - Don't even remember SAO - Last 2 seasons sucked horse dung for obvious reasons One Piece - Was actually good and interesting until the New Arc Darling in the franx - Too much darling HXH - After getting the licence it went downhill. There are many more but here are a few of them. |

| divine gate. a relatively obscure anime because of this, despite the decent amount of members. in the beginning it did have a fair bit of potential, if somewhat cliche, and the opening was "fire", so to put it, so it drew a lot of people in. but the writing, not the strongest to begin with, deteriorated severely in the second half of the series, which seems to be a common theme with game adaptations... also dororo. i still think that it's good overall, but it had issues with pacing and animation starting mid-way through the series. i believe it switched studios and/or animation directors; something like that. |
  i like soup |
| Darling in the franxx. I remember really liking it at first but the ending episodes completely ruined it for me |
 |
| easy Death note went to shit after L died. @KingShuloxx that is because railgun is and forever will be a SPIN OFF and more specifically a Gaiden which rely heavily on the MAIN series. |

| The biggest drop in quality I've seen is Hunter x Hunter 2011 |
| Fairy Tail - which is a shame because it had the potential to be an above average generic shounen. Pokemon - it was enjoyable early on but it quickly became boring and shallow. I heard later arcs improved but I stopped watching way before that. |
| 2 spectrums to this: Manga (I know it's off-topic but this has to be mentioned): Almost EVERY Weekly Shonen Jump big hit a.k.a Promised Neverland, Demon Slayer etc. in the recent years circa 2015. Anime? YES THERE ARE A LOT. SAO: Everything but the Alicization and Aincrad arcs. Certain Scientific series: Everything, but the spin-off Railgun is awesome. The BIG 3 back then (Bleach, One Piece, Naruto (Shippuden I can stomach but not for long)), Fairy Tail etc a.k.a long-running series. Pokemon: Basically everything after Misty and Brock was nowhere to be seen The final-stretch "wasted potentials": - Erased (insert obligatory ending?) - Darling in the FranXX (after that ONE controversial episode) - Charlotte, because it just feels so wedged in - Seven Deadly Sins (the changing of studio and handovers) And believe me, there are a lot more to dig out for 20+ years of anime. |

| Bleach. Soul Society is still one of the peak anime arcs imo and even Arrancar is pretty great, but by Fullbring is just drops in quality like a brick and don't even get me started on TYBW that shit was just a big mess. Akame ga Kill was pretty fun for the most part but oh god the final stretch of episodes was some of the worst fucking shit I've ever seen, whoever decided any of the decisions made in the last 7 episodes were a good idea needs to be given the death penalty for real. Its scary to think that such messed up people who would think that shit was a good idea are just wandering around out there. The first season of Free was a fun and fairly unique sports anime but the second season was paced way too slowly and tried to be too melodramatic. Then the third season was just an embarrassment, don't even like to remember that one exists. Screw whoever decided to milk this show for another season when season 2 managed to pull out a fairly satisfying conclusion. Psycho-pass is an obvious one. The first season is a great story with a fairly interesting storyline and characters. But by the second season the show just becomes an absolute joke due to them changing writers and having no idea what to fucking write so they just reskin the first seasons plotline but condense it to 11 episodes and make it 100% more edgy. Then the movie comes along and all hope was lost (at least that's what you'd think but season 3 was actually not bad) Re:Zero was pretty fun to watch for the first two arcs but around halfway through the first season it just became a chore to watch. |
| Shield Hero starts with a really dark interesting twist. It turns out to be more of your typical op harem mc lead shounen later on though I still like the series. |

| Shield Hero starts amazingly with the whole rape-victim plot (can't phrase it better, sorry), but then we got the usual isekai adventure business. 7 Deadly Sins was pretty good in the first 2 seasons, and then season 3 happened. Babylon had me completely hooked with it's initial episodes, and then just went downhill when the Prime Minister conference thing happened. Tokyo Ghoul's season 1 was good, but the sequels were preeety bad. SAO was great initially in the Aincrad arc and then...... Death Note was absolutely amazing, until Danmachi was good in season 1 for as long as they focused on Bell's progression. Season 3 has been my least favorite so far. Fire Force season 2 was an absolute disappointment. It didn't carry the same tension as season 1 The God of Highschool became a trainwreck midway. Yesterday wo Utatte: (no comment) |

| Gintoki and Sugita's birthdays are 1 day apart. |
| +1 Seven Deadly Sins. Hyped up after first season, then everything after the animation and story just went downhill. Real disappointment there. |
  |
| God of highschool had a really interesting premise when I watched the first episode but then things didn't make any sense and it was really rushed as the show went on.I would also like to add Tokyo ghoul.It really had an interesting first episode and really deserved the title of the best 1st episode anime but it was really fast paced as the show progressed and it also left out some important stuff in the anime. |

| God of high school , but not midway, rather at the 3rd ep Tokyo ghoul root A? lol |
| Spice & Wolf is the one which comes to my mind when it comes as a perfect example of this. I initially was really interested in it but my immersion & investment in it eroded fast the more I watched of it, especially during Season 2, which was a massive downgrade from the first season, where things got super-boring real fast. |

| Erased started out really strong and had a great first half but then it progressively got worse with each passing episode and had a pretty stupid ending. Beastars is another one that comes to mind. It had real great drama, mystery and characters in the first half but then the entire lion Yakuza stuff happened without any proper buildup and it definitely ruined my enjoyment of the show. |

| a lot of seasonals are just like that tbh |
