Hate when your anime or manga become popular?

I liked haganai it was a fun anime and manga. I have yet to see such a cease and desist order work until yesterday when kissanime announced that there getting hit with DMCA reports.

It was a great Harem where they actually called him out, thats really what it takes for me to get into one something to differentiate it.

It depends. Not much of a fan of bandwagon but hey if everyone likes what I like than I have no problem with it just hate it when people say they do yet don't. It's rather annoying

^"I also hate when they watched 2 episode and all of a sudden the know whats it about." Sorry this comment is almost 2 years old but I relate this so much when Devilman Crybaby came out. I didn't know more about Devilman than anyone else other than it was a really old manga with a blue demon so I can't say "my manga/anime got popular and it sucks" but what I disliked is how like, not even 2 days after it was released on Netflix, a lot of people were like "the manga did it better" and I felt exactly like the comment I highlighted. Like oof who are you kidding, you didn't know it existed 48 hours ago but you sound like an expert already?? If that makes sense.

Making something that gradually gets popular is not a mistake, it can not be helped. There's a thing called target audience, and the anime companies know what they are doing. In order to survive in a world full of money they must first target most of the people who watch anime. Teens and young adults. Anime is not being made for the old any more, it all started when Pokemon came out. When Pokemon convinced others there is money to be made others started to lower content and increase production to their show. It's the company's fault that your favorite shows change.
