Most Avoided:
Vivid Strikers: I wanted more Fate and Nanoha being Vivio's mamas (or at least the second half of the tournament arc from Vivid), but instead got a show with a first episode so creepy and boring that I instantly dropped it. I'm glad I did, considering the later gifs of elementary schoolers getting graphically murdered.

it was good. the fight scenes have a lot of emotion put into them so it plays out like a good sports anime at its strong points. the bully beatdown was graphic, but also a purposefully shocking moment in the history of one of the mains and her driving motivation comes from it. there's a lot of befriending and eventually marriage.

I have much stronger feelings against a show I tried to enjoy and justify through an entire cour than something that just disinterested me after a cursory watch. that's why the alternate title of the thread is "most disappointing."

No? Madoka's wish literally re-writes reality (which is not something anyone, including the creatures that created magical girls, thought was possible) so that being a magical girl was no longer fatal.

In Ikusei Keikaku it's fatal just because "erasing their memories became boring".

Well, no. The girls still live and die by the incubators' system. The difference in the new world is that when they die, they don't become witches. They join the Law of Cycles and because witches don't exist to feed on mankind's negative energies, wraiths proliferate and fill this role instead.

I'm p sure what Namtab is referring to is how the problems in the series and afterwards arise because the incubators will always seek faster and larger returns in favor of humane, sustainable systems.
