Well, at this time, we have to talk about "The Little Twins of the Night". When I watched the first episode, I thought that no matter what, it would be no problem to sell 10,000 discs? But later... there was no topic at all.

It's time to criticize Guilty Crown again. When I watched the first episode, I was shocked and thought that Puella Magi Madoka Magica was nothing. However, what happened in the later plot?

If the timeline goes forward, I think Soul Eater should be counted as one. Yes, it's the annual series produced by Bones. The first episode was really interesting, a mysterious fantasy school, and a group of characters with rich personalities. This setting is much higher than the current light novel adaptations. It's just that the plot became more and more weird later, so it didn't cause much heat.

Although I may be criticized, I still think that "Sword Art Online" is the work that reached its peak in the first episode... Many people became loyal fans after watching the first episode, but think about it, apart from the first episode, which other episode can bring such a shocking feeling?

That has to be "Gakuen Lonely Island". Back then, I really thought this work had the potential to become a hegemony, after all, the style difference between the beginning and the end was very obvious. However, in the following episodes, you tell me that it was just a bunch of girls doing their daily lives?

There are many more that I can mention, such as "Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day", which was actually a masterpiece in the first episode, but it was so slow afterwards. For example, "My Tale of Two Sisters", I heard that the ratings were quite high, but I gave up after watching the third episode; for example, "Charlotte", which had such a good start, but you finished like this; and "Kotoura-sama: Miss Coppa", which I thought was a masterpiece for the bizarre, but it became a daily routine later...

It seems that those "one-episode masterpieces" animations all have a depressing ending. I wonder if it's because the first episode is so impressive that the subsequent stories can't move people's hearts? The key is that there are problems with the handling of the subsequent stories. I feel that "A/Z" is such a case. By the way, what other "one-episode masterpieces" animations do you think there are? Let's talk about them together.
