The world of anime, like any other medium, has its ups and downs when it comes to the various shows and movies that make landfall. However, a recent poll has had anime fans talking about some of the worst examples of instances and themes that have crippled a franchise in its tracks. With anime having a history of countless years, there certainly isn’t a shortage of examples and plenty of series that have unfortunately fallen into several traps that have fans questioning the overall quality of a beloved property.

Perhaps there is no better example of some of these problems than The Promised Neverland, which adapted the beloved manga series created by Kaiu Shirai and Posuka Demizu and ran into a number of issues with its second season. Wrapping up the entirety of the series that followed the orphans of Grace Field House, the series is already slated for a live-action series on Amazon, following a live-action movie released in Japan, though it seems that The Promised Neverland won’t be making a return to the medium of anime any time soon.
