It's exactly what it says on the tin. Anime, manga, and other forms of Asian entertainment like them.

You get settled in, enjoy whats shaping up to be a great series, look forward to seeing what happens with the characters once they're introduced ... aaand the writing trips over it's own feet and faceplants into the ground like so many defeated enemies.
What's the worst one out there, and what happened to it?

The last season of Food Wars felt really rushed, like a shell of the former seasons. Absolutely everything felt unnecessarily shortened.

In general the entire series kind of took a nose dive when the focus switched from cooking to how many superpower level absurdist cooking skills can we cram into the story to cook something.

Which is unfortunate, but I think the shifts in the manga over the years really foretold the changing priorities of the creative team (editor included).

I did fall off reading the manga and so never watched S3. I wonder how it played out there.
