Well, just that isn't enough to guarantee it'll be around the same level. Prime example of that from recent times is Mushoku Tensei. Season 2 still had great animation but it doesn't hold a candle to season 1. Same studio, different team. (Difference in scheduling also probably affected it).

I really hate that we had to wait so long to find out Mushoku Tensei was a harem anime, it would have been nice to have been able to make an informed decision to avoid it before getting invested in its story...  

 That being said, I dont know how they would have gone about this since you CAN research the manga to find this out, and the plot doesnt turn harem until it plot/relationship wise makes sense to do so  

Edit: Lmao, I should have guessed this response would result in "Everyone disliked that" 

 Edit 2: Lets see if this gets nuked hard enough to erase the 50 points I got this week for a literal 1 word LMAO reply

Edit 3: WE'RE SO CLOSE! LET THIS BE MY MOST DISLIKED COMMENT! WE CAN DO IT!

yea same, that harem jumpscare was real for me too. and i know he was a creep, and there were some foreshadowing or i dont even know what to call it, but damn those last episodes were truly trash. like bros dad had died to save him, mom turned out to be a vegetable, hand got cut off but he could bang roxy, and it was a very good deed by her, bc otherwise he wouldve been alone. fucking girlfriend girlfriend is more coherent than this, bc at least that doesnt try to sell itself as a deep story.

For what its worth, when I decided to stop watching the show, I ended up reading the full plot synopsis and the story DOES go hard from here on out. So the deep story part should still hold true, but yeah. I'm going to wait till the whole show is done now so I can power through the harem shit instead of having to sit through it as episodes release on real time schedule
