I’ll start, Deadman wonderland, I remember watching it when I was just a teen, it was wonderfully gory, had sex appeal, an interesting premise, all the things a young guy likes. But I got to I think the third episode and I was like “what happened?” The action totally fell off, no character development was happening, it was just boring.

This sticks out to me since I have such a high suspension of disbelief so I like pretty much all media, the fact that this made teenage me stop watching a series midway just shows how much I didn’t like it compared to the start.

What about y’all, what series let you down?

    Season 3 of Death Note. I liked the bleak end of season 2, season 3 just felt like it came up with a contrived continuation to turn the tables. It was like a fanfiction.

      Yeah it felt like they didn’t want the series to end because it was making so much money, so they came up with the dumbest replacement character

        I fucking hated Near. I wanted to finish it up to see it though but damn the post L arc feels like retreading but not being as good

        Speaking of making money and continuing past expiration date. The Netflix movie. Shudders wilem Defoe was they only good about it
