What anime have people switched up on the most?

Some examples include:

\-Seven Deadly Sins because of the decline in animation and people lowkey realizing that Meliodas is a weirdo

\-Promised Neverland, due to straying away from the manga (despite the manga ending itself being poorly received... seems like a lose lose either way)

\-Akame Ga Kill was praised when it 1st came out and a lot of people who weren't even anime fans watched it but as the anime deviated more and more away from the manga, opinions soured

\-Kakegurui: In 2020 you could not scroll on TikTok without seeing Yumeko Jabami, Mary Saotome, Kirari Momobami, and Midari Ikishima whether you were an anime fan or not. Somewhere a year or 2 later all that hype disappeared (probably due to the lack of a season 3) and people went from praising the show to high heavens to bullying anyone who like it. I honestly dont know where the switch up came with this one

One Punch man season 3?

I really wanted to like it but dear God it's just terrible.

OmegaDarkrai2026-01-19 00:05

I think enough people were already dissatisfied with Season 2 that I wouldn't even call the reaction to Season 3 a switch-up, just an extremely massive reinforcement of their already slightly negative opinions.

Eeewww, tiktok🤢

Its 2026 + you are using reddit which is objectively worse

MrJeh2026-01-19 00:13

Tiktok has way worse brain rot than reddit and also kills attention span.

Maybe Tokyo Ghoul, season 1 was pretty popular, but season 2 had a really huge decline in story and a lot of people called it. Then came season 3 that bigger drop off in quality. The anime went from being a huge hit to one of the more wasted adaptions ever.

Madaniel_FL2026-01-18 23:18

I remember Rent a Girlfriend was quite popular and well liked when season 1 first came out.

SP3_Hybrid2026-01-19 06:52

I never read the manga or knew anything about it. Watched season one and was like okay, this could be interesting. They could wrap it up in season 2 and him and the rental gf could get together, and ditch the crazy girl. Or maybe she'll help him get a non crazy gf and they'll end it on that.

Annnnnnnnnnd now we're where we're at currently lol...

haven’t watched the show myself but from what I’ve heard The Meloncholy of Haruhi Suzumiya went from being essentially the face of anime in the 2000s to being pretty much forgotten about today since the 2nd season had one of the worst adaptations of an arc to the point where it killed the show.

gsenjou2026-01-18 23:28

It’s funny you say that, because it was by definition a great adaptation, just not something people would ever want to sit through, lol.

fuckthisshittysite562026-01-18 23:32

specifically the endless eight arc killed it since the studio committed to the time loop by reanimating the exact episode 8 times, like they redid the same episode from scratch 8 times

Unhappy-Strain-53872026-01-18 23:20

Haruhi S2

It... it... it... it... it... it... it... it... was endless.

RunningEarly2026-01-19 00:00

Honestly endless 8 wasn't too bad for me. What really turned me away was Haruhi turning from just bratty in S1 to a straight up bitchy asshole in the following season(when Kyon had to be physically stopped by Itsuki from slapping from sense into her)

Zero_Cool_32026-01-19 01:39

Yeah, that was brutal. It was well liked prior to that.

I remember watching several weeks thinking it had to end that episode. The ultimate troll would have been to make it last 9 episodes.

>I honestly dont know where the switch up came with this one

Kakegurui was one of the relatively few anime on Netflix, a streaming platform most non-anime fans would have had, when anime blew up during the lockdowns. As such, it was one of the first anime many new fans watched. It has good animation, character designs, and voice acting, so it became quite popular. Unfortunately, the story is rather weak and nonsensical, so as people who started with Kakegurui watched more shows, and other new fans got around to Kakegurui, they were able to see the flaws in the show. And the people who had started with Kakegurui but never watched more shows just stopped caring about anime in general. Therefore the general consensus on the show switched up. Also, to go along with what you said, the second season aired 6 years ago. It would be out of public consciousness no matter what.

uhm12382026-01-18 23:48

Nice assessment, and I totally hear you on the accessibility factor. However, I'm still a little puzzled on Kakegurui's mainstream success because there are elements of the show that usually make people hate anime, most namely the fanservice, which has repelled people from watching shows such as High Scool DXD, Food Wars, Fire Force etc (despite those shows being better written than Kakegurui)

NNKarma2026-01-19 01:02

Well, you also had woman muscle fan service, when it's all jiggle physics and underwear is thar people get tired

gsenjou2026-01-18 23:26

Attack on Titan

For some reason, a subpar ending made people forget that the other 95% of the series was phenomenal.

UnderstandingFun42992026-01-18 23:30

I agree with kakegurui. Although miss momobami is amazing.

princessMedley2026-01-18 23:55

It took more than one episode for people to realize Meliodas was a creep?

AppleDemolisher562026-01-19 00:05

Kakeguri was just a weird edgy show for 14yr olds. Those 14yr olds have grown up

NNKarma2026-01-19 01:05

Less people because it's a positive switch but World trigger when from an annoyingly low speed adaptation padded with recounting to a nicely animated, well adapted anime. Anf it's getting a reboot.

Bleach

I feel like for a long while it was seen as the weakest of the big 3 for a while. The fullbring arc was so different from the other arcs people hated it. The anime also ended on that arc without a full conclusion to the story. So Bleach was thought of as the weak link and forgotten for a long while.

But now with the new (amazing) adaption for the finale Bleach has gained a lot more reverence from loads of people. The fullbring arc doesn't seem as hated either. Plus the final arc Thousand Year Blood War which was not hated but kinda meh in the manga is being elevated by the anime imo. So the conversation surrounding Bleach has changed so much from 10 years ago.

oninokamin2026-01-19 02:42

For me, Bleach came out of the gate at a dead sprint and didn't stop for 63 episodes. Then the Bount arc dropped and it was like a runner that couldn't make his corner and just wiped the hell out.

Neon Genesis Evangelion: it was once considered the cleverest, the most philosophically deep, if not downright greatest anime of all time and while it still retain starpower and a loyal fanbase, the ending being such a total mess and the author milking the franchise endlessly with costant reboots (when the series was supposed to be a criticism/shot out to studios milking franchises) scarred its reputation permanently.

Naruto: it was essentially the face of anime in the mid-2000s but the plot being dragged endlessly with repetitive battles, character bloat, power creep, excessive filler, alien gods and destiny retcons, one of the worst choices for a final antagonist, all of this leading to quite the unsatisfying ending caused a huge fandom burnout. Plenty of people dropped it long before it ended and only came back to see how it ended (and didn't like it).

Death Note: similar to Evangelion, it almost immediately gained global notoriety and was widely considered "the greatest/most intelligent/deepest anime of all time". A second half universally considered horrible was enough for most people to open their eyes. Still considered good but hardly perfect or the best anime ever.

Cautious-Beyond-92102026-01-19 02:51

I dropped one punch man after season 3 aired. I made it through the second season, surprisingly. The second i saw the slide down that hill, i had to turn it off.
