The Promised Neverland season 2.
@King.binge99 no one asked if you are Dr greenthumbs new account
The Promised Neverland season 2 was such a disappointment. Everything was rushed, nothing was resolved, and everyone was cheated out of a proper ending. 💔💔💔
They also missed out a VITAL character and Goldy Pond! 😾
I totally agree. Season 2 betray the manga.
It's worse when you discover that apparently this was the manga creators intention because they apparently didn't like how the manga went??? Which is ridiculous like if they wanted it to go differently they could just do a different story instead of slap their fans in the face
@bauscheusse He apparently was made to rush the manga by his superiors, hence the messed-up pace towards the end. He was supposed to release light novels that would have properly ended the story the way he wanted it to.
Hot take: Shield Hero S2 is not completely irredeemable. Once you get past the damn Spirit Tortoise Arc, it's actually kinda entertaining. Definitely a drop in quality from the first season tho.
Yeah, but the spirit tortoise arc still sucks. But season 3 was much better and let's hope season 4 continues the rise
The tortoise arc was better on the light novel
Totally agree about S3 being superior from S2 and hopefully season 4 brings back the spark from S1😎@@crimeworkers130
I heard spirit tortoise was a slow arc in the LN too. That's the problem, the first season was laying out a foundation, letting us get to know Naofumi, the second one, we know him, and his goals now, now they have to develop the conflict. Personally, the moment they were in the other world, that was when things picked up for me; but the tortoise was needed in order to set our stakes for the future@@Bowmaster97
True
I’d throw in an honorable mention for black butler season 2. It may as well have been a separate show.
oh gawd, i HATED season 2 of that show, they shoulda just ended it at season 1 XD
Actually surprised that Tokyo Ghoul Root A/Re isn't even mentioned in this list
I'm surprised too.
*Vietnam flashback to sex scene*
@@Exerillo hooo that was so unexpected even though I only read half of the Manga
@@vani_the_dark_kaiju and the final nail in the coffin of a franchise.
@@Exerillo yep cuz it definitely had the potential to become one of the best of 2010s
@darkbluevamp yeah and I wanted to watch it to and want to like it but after I saw the spoiler to end all spoiler I lost it and made a big deal on the internet. I still regret it to this day.
Shield hero season 2 was a massive disappointment, maybe cuz season 1 was so good. But season 3 was good enough that I want to see more. Seeing the other 3 heroes again and throwing malty back, I definitely felt more invested. Malty is such an easy character to hate that you want to see her taken down.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Sadly the source material that season 2 had to adapt wasn't much better. The Spirit Tortose Arc definitely show signs that Yusagi was looking to find a new status-quo for the story with it serving as a transition Arc, but it was clear that the author wanted to get through with it serving as a source of trauma and a reality check to the other three heroes.
None of the FLCL sequels could live up to the original series, it comes to show not everything has to be a franchise.
How about a list of "anime that everyone forgot about?"
They would likely do that if ever they remember what those animes are.
Five 2000s series I've seen and thought were excellent will probably be on the list: Earth Girl Arjuna (2001), Angelic Layer (2001), Noir (2001), X (2001) [damn 2001 was a bad year 😅😂] and RahXephon (2002).
Last Exile, Excel Saga, Azumanga Daioh, Boogiepop Phantom, Paranoia Agent and Eureka Seven were more successful, but they're also sadly underrated today.
And as a huge CLAMP fan, I wish that Magic Knight Rayearth and CLAMP School Detectives got more love.
Agreed, I also really wish that they had actually completed the Reservoir Chronicle anime @@dieterdelange9488
Interspecies Reviewers would definitely be #1 on THAT list. The less I remember about that mentally scarring Hell (understatement), the better.
Or never knew about in the first place
Boku no Pico deserves to be in this list
Probably because they couldn't show much footage without getting in trouble...👀
You do realize it’s a hentai, right?
I’m surprised School Days was spared.
Why would expect something peak to be here?
I hated that shit so much.
It gets really good near the end; when the characters reap what they've sowed.
Lol, that was .y favourite anime for a long time
I loved school days... Although i was told to watch it because it was a train wreck, in a
No i didn't hit her Oh hi mark
Kind of way
I think there needs to be a Top 20 Worst 2nd Seasons in Anime list
And they should put the second season from Weißkreuz on it.
And what anime should be on that list?
@@samflood5631shield hero, promise neverland, the devil is a part timer, one punch man (just the animation tbh), SAO, black butlers, etc.
@@_Funaroma Don't forget Tokyo Ghoul Root A.
There was an 80s marvel anime?!
Gonna disagree on #13. The Devil is a Part-Timer! S2 has been doing a good job following the light novels, give or take a few little details being held back until more relevant to reveal them. It isn't as good as S1 and the animation quality isn't that different between the studios, where at least didn't also mean a change in VAs, but there are plenty of us fans of the series that did enjoy S2 as much as S1, if not more for some of us. (I also think it's humorous that the current rating on MyAnimeList for S2 parts 1 & 2 is 6.66.)
Season 2 of The Devil is a Part a timer was definitely a downgrade, but it wasn't terrible
Exactly! I heard somewhere they said it was boring. Boo I say, booo.
Yeah, must be the drugs
The only thing I liked about the second season was cute little Alas Ramus.
it was kinda depressing, like when you see a band that you love on tour and they sound sloppy through the whole concert.
School Days? Black Butler season 2?
There are some people who legitimately likes School Days...for some reason.
Hard agree on Black Butler Season 2, it was so bad >
Yeah, Black Butler's second season was terrible. Heck, the only filler from the first season that was actually good were Ash and Angela. (I kinda wish they were made canon.)
@DeltaSilver88 Pluto the Hell Hound, too!
Berserk 2016 was an insult
Yeah the English dub was good but it still wasn’t enough to give the anime justice cuz of how it be switching from 2D to 3d at certain moments
Berserk 2016 is not real never happened they only made 97 version

Berserk 2016 should be considered a crime against humanity.
I kinda liked it. Sure the animation left a lot to be desired but it stuck true to the story and had some genuinely very well animated moments.
There are so many I never even heard of...
Say what you want about The Devil is a Part-Timer season 2, I like it better than season 1. Seeing the evolving relationship between Emi and Maou because of the arrival of their daughter sold it for me. Yes, the story wasn't as tight as the first season, but the character dynamics are what made it for me. Also, Alas Ramus is the cutest ever, I hope my kids are half as cute as her. Hopefully, we'll see a season 3 to wrap up all the loose ends left by season 2, and maybe it won't take almost 10 years to happen.
I would only agree with another season being made only if they keep the ending the same as the light novel
@@evlmax5890 It's almost always better to stick with the original ending. It's pretty rare for a change to be better or well received.
I don't even know where to begin. The fact I didn't expect Conception was really hated, didn't know Tsukihime anime was so hated that I understand it. Then there's Brothers Conflict... I like that one. 🙈🤣😭
I'm surprised to see that "Sonic X" is not on this list.
Keep it up on your work and this video and channel
I love this video and channel
Thanks you for your video and channel
Well, there was that one infamous laserdisc from way back when about a blonde female mercenary and a dwarf...
You forgot _School Days_ and _Psychic Wars._
11:15 To be honest, I'm a fan of SD Gundam Force. I mean, all have flaws, I'll admit, but the musical orchestral score is the only thing that has me gripped with nostalgia when I first saw it on Toonami.
The Berserk 2016 3D Remake...Never heard anyone say anything good about this.
Makes me think of Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero. Sure the movie and plot were good, but it would've been better if the animation was done the old classic way.
My friend wants to see a list of best anime sequels
.....so how do women get pregnant in "Conception"!?
It’s so sad that some genuinely good anime that had a banging s1 fell off so hard cuz of their sequels
👏👏
Does anyone know the anime in the thumbnail?
Who in the Berserk 2016 had higher-ups looked at that and approved it? 🎉
6:36 i didnt hate season 2 but it was unessarry
Maken Ki season 2. Completely undid whatever story the first season was trying to tell for egregious amounts of fanservice (and I say this as a man of culture ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) )
To be honest I couldn't remember the plot anyway.
6:50 plus not to be mention it took 9 year's to come out
Its amazing that Jigoku Shoujo a.k.a. Hell Girl Season 4 didn't make this list. The stories in between the main plot of the season had hardly or no weight at all compared to the previous seasons & the main plot of Emma Ai's "replacement" was a blatant recycling of S1 & S3's plots....and we saw that after 6 episodes.
Do you understand what I'm saying? Normally for a 12 episode run, they concluded it in 6 episodes, and Do you know what came after on Episode 7? A reused episode from previous seasons til Ep 12. Something majorly bad must've happened behind the scenes if the end result was Season 4.
A few that deserved spots on the list: Skelter Heaven, Inferno Cop, Violence Jack, Shojo Tsubaki (it’s a movie rather than a story, but it deserves its notoriety for good reason!), Dark Cat, Wounded Man, Fairy Forest Five, and Abunai Sisters: Koko and Mika.
KEEP INFERNO COP'S NAME OUT OF YOUR ##$$$$ MOUTH
I agree about the rest, but I feel like you didn't actually watch Inferno Cop. It's really funny and that is a pretty popular opinion. It has a 7.2/10 on MAL.
11:47 in other words, Gundam got the Teen Titans Go treatment before that was even a thing.
Didn't even know there was a new flcl... but thank you for saving me from that nightmare
Why do I remember Gundam SD airing earlier than 03?
This is an incredible list
16:37 Ed from the good burger movie of a long order scene
I've got two with the same premise: Usagi Drop and If It's For My Daughter, I'd Even Defeat a Demon Lord. The shared premise: Boy rescues girl, boy all but adopts girl, boy raises girl, girl gets crush on boy, boy...reciprocates. Luckily, neither anime made it to the really problematic stuff of their LNs, but they shared not-so-subtle hints as to the direction the relationships were going...
Okay I got a pet peeve! What’s wrong with a sentient gundam? I think that would something pretty cool to explore! Just not in SD format.
It's a 'target audience' deal. People hear Gundam, they expect gundam, similar to.. say the megaman video games, or pokemon. You hear the brand and you know what to expect. Gundam being what is is, it's more similar to MettaBots. If you want a similar anime, that does it better
Well that sucks… but at least you clarified that! It still would be an awesome concept to explore in the main stream! I guess I find the mecha more interesting than pilots!
Except they made more series of SD Sentient Gundams but with better stories. There's one based on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Yes, they made Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but with SD Gundams.
8:25 again man
Fun Fact Rising Of The Shield Hero is made by the same studio that also made Revue Starlight, Made In Abyss, Cardfight Vanguard and Show By Rock!!
The rising of the Sheild hero S2 was a disappointed. What ever everyone say about that, it still important to follow the story that will continue to S3.
6:54 Fat James (rose and all) from Pokemon? XD
Devil part timer looks good what's wrong with it?
The second season
@@randomreviews4278I only watched season 1 and was about to read the light novel. Do you happen to know, if the anime differs from the light novel? Or is the light novel also bad then?
@DarkarThanBlack idk ive seen the anime sorry
Second season was absolute shit.
Yeah it looked oke to me tbh. I'd rather see crap like Diabolik Lovers or Yarnchin Bitch Bu on this list ngl.
I definitely want a continuation of Berserk, but I dont think any studio these days knows how to do cel animation
Conception sounds more like hentai than a mainline series.
you should make an part two and put these two on it:
Hameln no Violin Hiki
- comedy/parody manga : was made in a "dark" fantasy anime
-animation : more a slide show of pictures in some episodes
-story : rushed
It could have been a good anime if it got more development time and money.I want a proper remake of the "dark" fantasy version because the ost was ok ,the plot was intresting and i liked the characters.
Machine Robo: Cronos no Dai Gyakushuu
-has a good intro which lured me into watching this
It was more of how much errors you can find .the animation style changes in few episodes often in one episodes, mixed up colour paletts, Switchet up names and name changes ,the story everywhere .
I did some research because it looked like transformers. It was once upon a time a little japanese toy company produced a new toyline and named it machine robo it was the most suscessful toy they ever createt.(according to wikipedia)one year later a really well known bigger toy company launced a new toyline similar to machine robo and they named it Transformers .they where so sucessful they made an anime und selled thier toys worldwide. one year after the big company launched their Transformers anime ,the little company launced the machine robo anime wich was not good.
Amazing video watch mojo of the mostly despicable universe anime of all time,fantastic job. Some of those anime sounds interesting to check out to see how bad they are made and other one just skip all together. I might check watch soon Tesla Note and hand shakers for the fun of it,to see if I will like or not. What about FLCL Shoegage.
The seven deadly sins after season 2?!
@6:30 Still liked S2 better than S1 of Devil is a Part Timer.
Just a note to the WatchMojo people. Maybe I'm the only one bugged by this, but I often have this on while doing other stuff, and noticed that the narration is SO MUCH more quiet than things like music (for music-based videos) or or, in this case, the Anime dialog. I have to constantly keep messing with the volume so I either don't blow my eardrums out but also, want to hear what the announcer is saying. Most people probably aren't doing other stuff (like playing MMORPGs, well, the grindy parts) while watching or listening to videos, but when you are, the change in volume is very noticeable.
I forget if it was mention in this video (and I don't care enough to go back to check), but it should be noted that Conception also exists as video games
In terms of infamy, I’m a little surprised M.D. Geist isn’t on this list.
I’m worried that seasons 2 of X-Men 97, Chainsaw Man, Castlevania Nocturne, Zom 100, Hell’s Paradise, Loser Ranger and Delicious in Dungeon, and of course seasons 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen, Legend of Vox Machina and Spy x Family might be disasters.
School Days for sure, but when they were going over #1 I thought “oh so it’s ‘FLCL does Endless Eight’…wait a minute, WHERE IS HARUHI SEASON 2?!”
Promised Neverland was the closest I've ever come to throwing something at the screen aside from Game of Thrones ending
17. Dracula ate a hamburger after losing his powers. It sure was a watch.
FLCL didn’t end at Grunge. We also got FLCL: Shoegaze the same year and it left a lot more questions than answers, the latter of which we’ll get forced down our throats if more seasons appear out of nowhere.
Yay, I'm happy, I don't even know most of the anime in this list lol
Why do people hate SD Gundam so much? It was fun and I loved it when I was younger.
One that I really think deserved a high placement on this list is "A Dance with Devils". An absolutely disjointed romantic plotline with the single most ludicrous collection of musical numbers ever collected for any reason. I have never been a big fan of the romance genre of anime, but whomever came up with this was probably thinking "Dizzney romance plus Anime" and then elected to be pummeled about the head with a golf club while they wrote the songs.
I must be weird since number 5 camera angles look actually cool-.
Hey i grew up with SDGF. i was like 6 at the time and it was playing on Cheez TV in Australia. as a kid into robots, it was good.
Anyone heard of "Legend of Duo"? This anime ... I mean slideshow is some supernatural maybe vampire story, with relative short episodes. It was so memorable that I can't even recall what was it really about, but it didn't really cointain any animation :D
3:07 really
I was gonna check out grunge but after seeing this its a definite nooope! Thanks for the warning.
The Conception one is based on video game too
Vampire Holmes is super funny if u listen to everlasting love as the op and ed everytime on top of the ad for every episode. Garzey's wing is also an amazingly funny watch with friends. The pool party scene is PEAK as well as the crazy character names.
I loved playing Conception 2 the video game back in the day so I was interested when the anime for the first game came out.....then I tried watching it....never again.
I might add Trouble Chocolate and Samurai Girl Real Bout High School. First Squad is also an option.
i must be beyond this universe, then, since i like them all.
Huh...didn't know about another FLCL.....after what I saw....kinda glad ._.
I actually liked Superior Defender Gundam Force, never seen the other anime series from this list.
How do you know everyone hates these animes because there are people that like anime shows that people hate. In their people that hate anime shows that people like.
Yeah it's a strange list. Was there a poll? Obviously not so I can only think of heresy and social media as the evidence.
@@babytoshiro7014 possibly overall sales numbers as well. especially in japan.
14:49 why man i thought it was good
SD Gundam is actually meant to be a parody of itself. As if you look at it in that perspective it isn't that bad that's just being more comical. Also Devil is a part-timer season 2 is it really that bad so I'm not sure if its source material. As if it's a light novel or Manga it could just be one of those arcs that is not really well liked.
Somehow I knew that one of the most low anime rated on MAL (Number 4 btw) would appear here.
Dear lord, I don't know wtf happened to FLCL.
Shield hero S2 was so bard that they had to retcon the ending at the beginning of S3
The Lunar Legend Tsukihime anime is nowhere near as bad as this video makes it out to be.
Came specifically for this comment. I thought it was a decent show and went online to hopefully have a discussion about it. BIIIIIG mistake. It's my taste of my first life lesson: NEVER interact with Type Moon VN fans. They're the ones responsible for all the unreasonable hatred on the show.
Surprised Boko no Pico and Eiken didn’t make the list
You gotta wonder how the creators of all those hated anime would handle all that backlash.
I would just watch Brother’s Conflict to hear Junichi Suwabe talk.
Tbf conception it's a anime adaptation of the first game in a series(2012/13&19) and maybe should stayed as such. By video game adaptation is it almost a coin flip if it ends good.
Whats the thumbnail
Ladyspo
The devil is a part timer
The "sex comedy " Junk Boy is really abysmal. Thank goodness it never got beyond VHS.
I wonder what they think of FLCL Shoegaze.
20 and 9. Say what you want about the other entries animation but at least the characters in those anime actually, y'know, MOVED! I've seen better EVERYTHING in fighting game stills.
7. All I can think of is how much it looks more like Guilty Gear games. It's not like CGI anime CAN'T work. Beastars, Dorohedoro, and Kengan Asura managed to pull it off.
3. WHAT HAPPENED?! Did the team get replaced in between seasons? Did executive meddling get in the way? Did the existing team lose their touch? I don't know what happened behind the scenes, but regardless, it ended disastrously and everyone involved loses, especially the consumers.
I actually enjoyed FLCL Grunge, Shoegaze followed after and that took place after Alternativve, and it felt a bit unique too. Also after Grunge & Shoegaze, there are no more seasons planned.
The truly weird thing about Brothers Conflict is that NOT ONCE does the girl reciprocate any of the brothers' interest. They all want her, but she consistently just wants a normal family. This isn't her torn between them; it's her not wanting any of it, so it ends up being something like eleven active stalkers coming after her in a completely one-sided way. It really makes one wonder what the goal of this thing was.
would put garzey's wing/vampire holmes/brothers conflict/ladyspo(that was just a slideshow rip off of deathball) and definitely gibiate/pure ugly ex arms/berserk(that series is just sadly cursed with anime adaptations) in flcl grunge's(compared to the previous 2 that felt like a generic anime that had haruko in it it felt closer though would just prefer a story about an older naoto/mamimi running into haruko again.) spot as they're way worse.
shield hero s2 was underwhelming "didn't know what to do after it's finale" but wouldn't say it is as bad as conception and at least had a proper follow up compared to how pure bad promised neverland's finale is.
Ex-arms This Anime might've had The Worst CGI in History. Seriously it's like nobody was trying to animate this one.
You forgot to mention that the manga for ex-arm was cut off early cause of how poorly the anime did.
Did FLCL not learn from the “Endless Eight?”
Universally would mean every. Single. Person.
Which ultimately isn't the case here.
Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045. Absolutely surprised it's not on here.
Wasn't everybody universally disappointed by "The Junji Ito Collection"?
