Not sure about the anime.
But didn't Zom 100 manga basically shut itself with that cuck subplot with FMC and the doctor?
Anons always say that killed the series but I'm not sure if the impact was that big in Japan or it was just anons asperging about it here
>>
>>282640909
The anime suffered production issues and delayed the last 3-4 episodes, this coincided with the manga doing the NTR chapter and then rewriting it and he couldn't handle the backlash on twitter.
>>
>>282640955
So funnily enough both manga and anime hit their lowest/more conflicted stage at the same time.
Sounds like a sign from heaven telling the author that his series was fated to failure.
Can't feel pity for him, though, when he decided that subplot was a good idea.

>But didn't Zom 100 manga basically shut itself with that cuck subplot with FMC and the doctor?
Did that manga end? Also was there even a subplot? I stopped reading, but I remember that doctor was introduced 1 chapter and the next the girl was chasing after MC again. I guess the damage was done already in the time between chapters.
>>
>>282641145
I remember a big part of the Infinite Stratos hype in /a/ was caused by light novel "readers" who lied about Ichika's relationship with the girls, saying he pretty much had an actual romantic relationship with all the girls, kisses included.
Meanwhile, the series itself has always been incredible boring and uneventful in every aspect.
>>
>>282640909
Zom 100 has been shit for a very long time now, MC is so awful that I wish he didn’t together with the FMC, he’s a complete man child while FMC is a smart woman, she was honestly better with the doctor.

You just responded yourself. Getting so intense over something that wasn't even going to happen is sign of a really feeble character. Meanwhile the author being so unaware of his fanbase being like this and then having a meltdown shows that he doesn't know where he was standing.
>>
>>282641721
Do you seriously believe any of that astroturfed garbage? Meanwhile even in a place like youtube comments I read about people hating on the ending.
>>
>>282641776
The point is flying over your head. You don't get it. The problem was putting in some shit his readers didn't like. It's literally irrelevant that it wasn't going to actually be NTR, because the readers already disliked what he already put in the released chapter. Get it? It doesn't matter that it wasn't going to happen, everyone who read the bait chapter already hated it for what it was, not for hypothetical shit in future chapters.

Why the fuck would he do that, then have a Twitter meltdown when he gets the obvious reaction?

What's her name?
>>
>Kaguya
Was king of the romcoms for a good minute. Anime was considered Goated as fuck with god tier openings. Lack of cohesion for the post confession story led to waning interest and Aka's desire to focus of his other work led him to rush the ending to an anticlimactic end. At least it was a happy ending. Anime called it quits after the confession movie

>Knights of Sidonia
It was decently popular on /a/ at least. The introduction of the fucking homunculus and the complete negation of one of the major themes of the story (the shortage of alien killing weapons) caused the series to completely change tones. At least MC got to fuck the MILF captain.
>MHA
Completely fell off after the post dark Deku arc. Manga was already losing interest due to pacing/content, anime lost a good chunk of viewers because nothing fucking happens even when shit happens. Girls are hot enough to stand the test of time though.
>Bleach
People are somewhat hype about the blood war but no one really gives a shot about bleach. The arrancar war was entirely too long and the anime had too much filler. I don't even know if it's still one. Rukia discourse, which was once a board constant, is gone
>Evangelion
The only example where revival content actually killed the fan base. Pre Rebirth daily threads were up about the show and it's themes and girls. Post rebirth no one wants to talk about it because the ending sucked ass and asuka and Rei got with other people/died. I personally was so hyped following 2.0 that I almost cried tears of rage when I finished 3.0. what the fuck were they thinking

You cannot reconcile antagonists that are child-brain eating monsters with "but not ALL of them are bad!" without sounding like a really bad joke.
The whole point of grimdark and apocalyptic settings is to place the protagonist into situations where they have to make morally ambiguous choices. Neverland tried to have its cake and eat it too.
Everything I said it refers solely to the """twist""" that was posted here because I didn't read past the escape from the orphanage.

Is Aka a disgraced mangaka now after fumbling two series back to back?
>>
>>282642600
She met a whopping two demons who don't eat humans and who were noted to be special. Then she went on an offscreen journey through demon towns where she learned that most demons don't maliciously hunt humans down for consumption but simply buy their meat at the store while behaving peacefully otherwise. Too bad the author thought being told this and showing it for two pages made for an equally solid argument as showing demons hunting and gutting kids down for fun for a hundred chapters.
>>
>>282642217
It went on a hiatus right as things were escalating, and people had moved on, plus the artist was pulling a Togashi and continually putting out unfinished chapters, something that a seasoned author with hundreds of chapters under his belt shouldn't have had a problem with.

I'm wondering how the anime is going to handle this. with Kaguya they had a convenient stopping place where they could leave it and most animeonlies don't even know that the manga continues after that.
Oshi no Ko doesn't have a place like that in the story though. they'll either have to completely diverge on the last season or stop it awkwardly and postpone it forever. I predict they'll do neither and just go for the easy route of trying to change minor details to soften the blow like several other anime have done.

I really wonder just how much of these supposedly bad endings are just people being absolutely wrong with so much about them.

is surprising how consistently decent/good endings jojo have. The only one people really complain is part 8. I dont know why having a good ending is so hard for japs. I know for a manga like berserk is difficult because of the powerscaling and open threads, but for some shitty romcom should be easy as fuck to make a "They married and had kids and live forever happy" or some shit. People praise FMA and its a basic bitch happy ending, and its good because you dont need more

It's so retarded.

In the romcom case, it's because japs today are extremely mentally ill and NTR obsessed for some reason.

I think japanese have an obsession with mundane life, the boring version. Which is why most endings often ends along that line similar with my hero academia. They can't envision an ending set in a fantastical world because the life they live is completely different so they impose what seems like a normal ending for them in real life to the fiction they create.

Wasn't that written because of the backlash? Him being a teacher is probably the true ending for the author cause how would deku in a suit even work? He's just normal at the end. He's not rich and certainly not a genius like tony stark to maintain and ugrade the suit or just rich like batman.

I think 3.0 was the one that caused all the issues. Introduces a bunch of new plotlines and way more questions than answers way too late into the franchise so 4.0 has to use its whole runtime to speedrun resolving everything. Kinda like TLJ did for Star Wars.

Disagree. I think it could’ve been better if some other girls had won, but it’s not like there were some girls miles and miles ahead of relationship progression and it didn’t seem like an Elsie/Hagua ending were gonna happen.

That's bullshit, Chiho gets a fuckton of screentime and is constantly shown to be the one who try to build a relationship with Maou.

True. It was one of the few romcoms that people liked for its story. It was praised whenever it was mentioned online.
The ending was bad but I believe the entire last half/third of the story is to be blamed as well. It varied between boring and bad and went into overdrive by the last arc. The main couple's romance wasn't as engaging as it should be after they got together.

Anons are really confusing (or probably baiting) stories with genuinely shit endings like SnK or Boku no Hero, and series that simply had their time in the spotlight, we already either enjoyed or hated them, we discussed, shitposted.....and then we moved on to another series. Take >>282646855 for example: story was great and ending wasn't bad or anything, it simply ended, we loved it, and then we continued with another story.

Brynhildr in the Darkness didn't have an awful ending that overshadowed discussion of the series but it was so underwhelming that nobody cared about it anymore.

FMA's ending is good partially BECAUSE it's so simple. A plan you have been aware of for most of the story but don't totally understand resolves in a manner that makes you go "ohhhh I get it now" and follows the setting's rules, the bad guy is beaten, and one of the main plot threads of the story is resolved in a sudden, unconventional, but extremely on-theme resolution that makes you go "I fucking love the main character, he was actually paying attention and learned something".

The entire final arc was the kind of cliche trite garbage that the manga used to do gags about. If Kaguya just ended after the big rooftop kiss I bet it would be more fondly remembered and discussed. It would have made way more sense narratively for it to end there. Kaguya was confessed to. The war of love is over.

I do too. But I hate how the romantic subplot was reserved for Hoshino more. Her issues could have been handled while keeping her relationship platonic with the MC and the romantic choice should have been left between the gyaru and glasses. It's why after the kiss things kept going downward.
Yeah, I get it's a boy/girl duo so obviously they will get together. But I hoped that the author will do something different for once given how strong the series was at the start.

The author pulls an NTR fakeout with the whole harem right at the end.
The MC "gets possessed" by the ghost of a salaryman who rapes them all.But it was all an illusion. Someone only made him think he was the rapey salaryman and somebody else made sure the rapes were just an illusion, so despite having experienced it, none of the rapes were real. The culprit who made him think he was the rape master was trying to start a war between humans and all the other races but got off scot free because the MC asked for them not to be executed because they thought they were doing the right thing.Also, the only time in the series the MC ever actually had sex was when he got drunk and fucked his male friend in the ass, which was how he lost his virginity.

The plot and the direction it was going was just straight up bad to begin with. It had potential to be something else but that's it. The show got even worse after episode 4. The ending wasn't so bad and it even surprised me, but it was rushed and should've been more well developed instead of having lots of episodes with nothing important.

If you make a good ending it's totally normal for no one to talk about your story, especially here because most discussion is shitting on everything.
Ajin is a good recent example, comes up every few often but there is no need for daily threads.

I'll mention Gun Smith Cat's Burst. All the stuff after Goldie returned up to the end made me retroactively mourn the time I spent on the series as a whole. Can't reread it without thinking how much I loathe the ending.

I’d argue that it’s less the actual ending itself and more the lead up where we didn’t get to see the rest of the continents/ingredients after the arc inside the big clam. I thought the final fight was still good but not getting to see Sunny and Livebearer have their own arc still hurts to think about.

Anon are you INSANE, Shadows House drops like a rock at a certain point. The whole thing was near perfect and then all of a sudden the author just kills all intrique and interest and starts making needless asspulls left and right.

I think Usogui wouldn't be as good as if he didn't have such an autistic facination with fighting. Not to say it lands everytime, the dumb boat fight comes to mind which is double annoying when I think the battleships gamble is top 3 for me.
Hopefully he has learned to balance the two sides, considering it's seemingly the whole point of Genikasuri is that the two should work in harmony.

I was fine with it because the fighting was never some deus ex machina that couldn't be planned around.

Just do note that Choujin X is significantly different in terms of tone. It still has dark and tragic moments (and i'd argue when the manga tries to be dark, it's even more fucked up than TG) but batshit insane comedy equally balances them. A single chapter can go from a serious situation to a full-blown Scooby-Doo chase or Ishida drawing one of the main heroines peeing on a chapter cover.

Almost the entire issue aside from the most egregious of pearl-clutching normalfags. The anime was cranked out to be blatant Abe-ganda when the source material just wasn't. One of the lulziest chimp-outs I've seen, people are still mad at the ending.

The hype for Eva 3.0 was real back then. /a/ used to have daily threads made, speculating on what's going to happen after 2.22 ended, what the previews would entail and so on. I have never seen the board change its collective excitement to mere shitpost that quickly.
After that, it's almost palpable that the discussions have dried up. People want 4.0 not out of some sheer excitement but because they want the movies to just be over and done with. It's ironic how in the end, most of the popular theories about the movies were proven, but not what anons ultimately wanted

He had to quit it in the first place because it had very poor sales and difficulty publishing it. Prison School was made specifically to help him pursue his passions later with a better base to work with, but he tanked that so he's further sway from his dream than when he started (I'm sure you can see the irony of his little deal with the devil and how pride got the best of him).

Lonely kid likes to paint, meets a girl who's into makeup, they become friends and he grows out of his shell, yadda yadda...

Except it ends with him pushing them all away, they get fed up and abandon him, and it ends with him just as lonely and miserable as when it started.

The Disney Sequel Trilogy and the Rebuilds are so much alike that it's scary.

Well, officially it was spite on the mangaka's part because they wouldn't make an anime.

If you're going to pull that literary shit, you better advertise it beforehand. That's why I always hate when authors try going that route in otherwise wish-fulfillment series, I know they're just doing it for the shock factor to get attention.

The imaginary chimeras are truly the pinnacle of shonen writing and is something that only Beastchads can appreciate. It has its roots in early 1900s literature with the works of Franz Kafka. Kafka made his name by writing literature that begged the question of identity and asking the question, "what makes you-you?" or "How much would you have to change before you stopped being you?" These themes are particularly palpable in works like "The Metamorphosis". Paru admired Kafka's writing so she implemented the imaginary chimera. You see, Legoshi has given his entire life to fighting for a world where he and Haru can fuck and live happily, and Melon is standing in the way of that both character and plot wise. This goal has consumed his identity and he is nothing more than a tool for Haru and his future family. Paru then brings the Kafkaesque elements in by figuratively imagining Legoshi’s delusion of a wolf-bunny hybrid, thus figuratively making him a “bunny” so that he can defeat Melon and fuck Haru and create their future family. The idea is that someone who has been figuratively disembodied from their true physical form still has a sense of self, a kernel of Legoshi’s soul that is unwavering.

Like I said, it was spite. Crashing the plane with no survivors. It probably ended happily before that.

02's ending was Kino and pretending otherwise shows you're inauthentic. It's so rare for a show back then to reject the npc idea of removing all the objectively good magic and crap to return the world to it's current real-world miserable state because it's "responsible" and instead say "You know what? Modern society is lame and we have supernatural powers, let's make the world a magical utopia and give everyone their own talking dragon."
No one who was actually in the shows target demographic was upset about some dumb shipping thing. Kids that age still think girls have cooties. So you're either lying or were watching an elementary school level show as an adult.

The story before the detective stuff was all focused on character drama, character dynamics, and romantic relationships and as soon as they get to the detective part it is sidelined for shonen and more character drama and dynamics that moves the story forward past the Riz arc.
The entire murder mystery is a 3 chapter affair and the villain sucked. Meanwhile Melon is the best villain in shonen.

No, a series with a loved ending, will always come back around eventually, people will remember it every few years. It will always stay niche but relevant.

A series that shits the bed, people basically purposefully blank it from their memory, they don't want to talk about it anymore. It ends up being just a sour memory in the end.
