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?

Spy x Family - has a weird vibe that is unsettling tbh, idk how to describe it and the plot seems slow and the relationships superficial
My Hero Academia - it’s marvel superheroes (which I also don’t like) and some of the powers people are born with just seem like horrific genetic conditions that bring nothing but misery for the individual.

Like one dude has a
spray bottle for a head. Are they even human anymore? Can this guy even eat food? IDK.Sword art online, it started off great and had a lot of promise. But over time it essentially rushed the story line when other seasons arrived. I’d wish they took the time to expand on other characters more, especially others that were in the initial problem when the show started. Animation, graphics, and sound are great
From golden goose to lipstick on a pig with the story direction and rate of progression.
Solo Leveling. I think after seeing so many recommendations (and better animes) I expected too much of it. It’s just a very basic Isekai with flat, tropey characters and boring art style. It has some really cool fight scenes, I’ll give it that. Forced myself to watch the first season to the end in the faint hope it’ll do something interesting, but nope.
I guess it’s watchable if you’re looking for a simple power fantasy and don’t mind tropes.
Manga it is based on is actually WORSE, the anime is decent in comparison
Schwarzes Marken, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Amanchu! Advance, Aldnoah;0, Horimiya: the missing pieces, Nyaruko, Lycoris Recoil, Magical Destroyers, VTuber Legend, the Misfit of deamon academy 2
Most of them started out strong but fell brutally off
Biggest one: Aldnoah Zero
Some potential contenders are: The Detective Is Already Dead, Akame ga Kill, and Shield Hero.
