I'm pretty sure you can also add Ascendance of a Bookworm to the leftovers list, it sure as hell didn't end on episode 14. (It's still only getting better, despite the massive amounts of material being glossed over.)

It continues in April.

despite fanservice really not being terribly prevalent in the series) and I really don't think there are many people going "wooo, that last scene is the deciding factor in me deciding to watch it" but this kind of crap has seem to have become expected for shows like this. It also inclines people to look at the majority girls in the OP and going "so this is a harem series, right?" when it's not. AT ALL (there is absolute zero attraction from either of the other two girls shown there).

The manga has an interesting approach to fanservice: There is basically zero of it in the story itself, but almost every chapter title page is a fanservice picture completely unrelated to the content of the chapter.

So far Kawaii Shield Hero anime is much more enjoyable than Misogynist Shield Hero anime.

RIP Usagi-san. You will be missed.

Meanwhile Dendrogram had basically the same first episode, only it's boring instead of cute

Other changes - and some complaints they've engendered - I think are fine. Like, one I've seen repeated often is "yeah, dumb series, we're just supposed to believe these cases(particularly that one in Shibuya) are going completely ignored by the authorities?" Spoilers - they're not. One cut I think was reasonable for time was cutting scenes out several detectives actively investigating the first killing and trying to figure out what the hell happened - it's good for worldbuilding, but in the scheme of what needs to be accomplished in setting things up it's not too important. It WILL come up, probably in the next episode, since there are several figures who are rather important to the series on that side, but wasn't necessary for the first part.

They skipped all the police stuff and went straight to the first event :shrug:

It's more of a comedy about sex. If you want actual porn, try Overflow.

I really liked that it was less about solving the crime and more about chilling this large snake out

Kotoko bullshitting is very much part of the plot.
