** Speaking of characters' refusal to call their friends by their names. When things get serious and the antagonists start to rack up a body count, most of their victims (save for [[spoiler:Yugo and Lucas]]) are part of Goldy Pond's extras. To the readers, these kids are nameless {{Red Shirt}}s; but in-universe, they are companions with whom the characters have spent one-year-and-a-half (and even more for their fellow Goldy Pond children). However, for some reason, the characters adamantly refuse to use the characters' names when they refer to their fallen comrades, which means evey time they mourn the friends they lost, it's always as if they're saying [[spoiler:Yugo, Lucas,]] AndTheRest...

* SeasonalRot: Season 2 was perhaps the most notorious anime example in 2021, being an extremely CompressedAdaptation that adapted the remaining 144 chapters into 11 episodes (by contrast, Season 1 adapted 37 chapters into 12 episodes). Multiple story arcs were skipped entirely and the remaining plots were heavily truncated, infamously in the ending where they're confined to a slideshow flashback. FanonDiscontinuity isn't enough to describe how people were disappointed with Season 2.

* WTHCastingAgency: The live-action movie has Emma, Ray, and Norman's actors being played by teenagers, with Emma's actress being 19. Ray's actor, on the other hand, is 13 and closer to Ray's age in the manga. The film justifies this by raising the age deadline for the orphans getting harvested to 16, but giving the characters an AgeLift takes away a lot of the horror the kids go through.
