*** PuffPuff: Seconded. This doubly pissed me off because we're talking about the same pair who would have been fine with the entire world being ended if one or the other died, because, and this was their own words, without each other, the world wasn't worth saving. And ''they're'' calling out ''Usagi'' on her decision? Selfish, immature idiots, the both of them.

* Tropers/{{FoxABeeNeeOwnYes}}: The Heiji/Kazuha romance arc has long since gotten old due to their repeated attempts to confess, only for unnecessary factors - i.e. Kazuha being shy, bad luck or interruption getting in the way, Momiji becoming a love rival to Kazuha, and Heiji saying or doing something stupid - resulting in the attempts failing. Chapter 1118 is really where the RunningGag isn't even funny anymore as Heiji '''completely forgets to confess to Kazuha''' despite Ran setting up the perfect romantic environment for them to get the chance and making sure that bad luck, interruptions, or Momiji doesn't get in the way. I seriously question why is it that Gosho continues to drag this out despite the fact that it's nearly been '''30 years''' since he started ''Detective Conan''.

* Tropers/Owen23: ''Anime/SgtFrog'' is one of the best anime I'm currently watching at the time I'm writing this, but episode 22 "Today's Adventure: Lose the Boss! (don't kill me..)", really feels like they threw the Jerkass Ball to Tamama today. It starts off good with Tamama being appointed as leader and Keroro coping with it, but once Tamama goes mad with power, that's when the episode loses it's edge. Not only does Tamama destroy Keroro's Gundam models in front of him, but also decides to drop Keroro down a pit. Then he decides to change all the land and water to sweets, which is a good plan, until that Tamama starts to go full-jerkass mode and drops the entire Platoon (except himself), the Hinata children, and Mois like dead files! And how does he resolve it, telling that the Platoon that'll never do it again while whining. Thanks a lot, Tamama. Not only did you destroy an important thing to Keroro, but you went crazy and dropped all those frogs into a pit. I thought you used to nice and friendly, but this episode makes you go too far with your role as leader!

** Tropers/{{chucknormie}}: ''Love Live!'' is one of my favorite {{Guilty Pleasure}}s, but I won't even attempt to defend episode 7 of season 2. Long story short, Honoka and Hanayo find out they've gained a bit more weight than they'd like to over the break. It would be quite a good episode if they decided to get back into shape on their own, but what happens is [[DrillSergeantNasty Umi]] decides to put the two into a completely draconian {{Training from Hell}}-filled diet plan, which goes from strict into outright [[KickTheDog dog-kicking]] because Umi has no authority to do that. At one point, she even mentions that she's been asking Honoka's little sister about what Honoka eats at home, ''which is spying''. It's no surprise that both girls would want to cheat on the plan, but the worst part comes after Umi finds out about it: she proceeds to [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech dress down Honoka for more than a minute in front of everyone]], and not a single other character attempts to call Umi on it (the most it gets is a LampshadeHanging from Maki) or even come to Honoka's defense at all! The worst part about this episode? [[HollywoodPudgy Honoka didn't look a single bit heavier than usual during it.]] Instead of delivering a nice [[AnAesop aesop]], what this episode did do was to establish Umi as the resident KarmaHoudini (if the penultimate episode of s1 didn't already) and make the viewer wonder how she managed to remain Honoka's friend for so long, unless Honoka's [[ExtremeDoormat about thirty-three vertebrae short of a spine]].

*** Tropers/Doujinguy567: To clarify, in the beginning, everyone had believed she had ran away and Shippo had been feeding into this possibility by guilt-tripping them on how they were using Kirara for their own ends and taking her for granted when in actuality, he knew what happened to her. This is proven when Myoga returns with her and explains to the group that he had told Shippo that he was taking her with him and what is Shippo seen doing while this is happening? Trying to quietly remove himself from everyone's eyes. So, despite being half asleep, he had an inkling of where she actually was, yet took the time to make everyone feel like crap for no reason. That's the real DMOS, Shippo taking advantage of a situation to make everyone feel like crap over nothing. You can chalk his behavior here up to him being a [[TheTrickster fox spirit]] since this wouldn't be the only time he does it, it's just the one of the very few times it's not directed solely on Inuyasha.

* @/{{Mateu-san}}: One specifically for the European Spanish dub of ''Anime/{{Aggretsuko}}''. In the original version of Episode 3, the rumor about Retsuko that started with her complaining about her job in Shibuya somehow twists itself into Retsuko having given birth yesterday, leading to [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments Haida having a freakout and the introduction of Fenneko's deadpan laughter.]] In Spain, this was {{Bowdlerise}}d in the worst way possible: Haida now asks, "Did you say something inappropriate yesterday!?" Since this is exactly what happened, this kills the joke in translation. At least the English, Italian, and Latin American versions kept the joke intact.

** @/MathsAngelicVersion: The conversation between Puko and Retsuko at the end of Season 1, Episode 3. The first problem is revealing that Retsuko's idea of leaving her shitty job to help out with Puko's store was nothing but a HopeSpot, which suggests that [[TooBleakStoppedCaring things will likely never get much better for her and there's no reason to slog through seven more episodes of her life sucking]]. The other big issue is that Puko praises Retsuko for being "reasonable". The framing tries its best to pass it off as a heartwarming moment, but when the show has explicitly tied Retsuko's "reasonable" attitude to her being overworked and treated like garbage, it instead comes off as "thank you for putting up with a miserable lifestyle so I can freeload", and there's a cynical underlying implication of "work sucks, but it's necessary and there's nothing you can really do about it". I dropped the show as a result.

* Tropers/MathsAngelicVersion: I came very close to dropping ''Anime/NodameCantabile'' due to the end of Episode 4: Franz Von Stresemann tries to extort a kiss out of Nodame by threatening to deny Chiaki the right to change majors if she refuses. That could have been an okay moment if it were treated with the gravity it deserved, but it's not. Outside of Stresemann getting KO'd when Nodame punches him (which doesn't hold that much weight in a series with plenty of comedic violence), he suffers no consequences for it.[[note]]In particular, Episode 7 seemed to be building up to Stresemann being humiliated after spending more time being a lech at parties than doing his job, but he pulls a KarmaHoudini by tricking someone else into taking the fall for him.[[/note]] Later episodes even try to pass him off as a semi-sympathetic character who's sometimes up to [[LovableSexManiac "Lovable" Sex Maniac]] antics. The scene also soured me on Chiaki, who witnessed the incident and (1) bought Stresemann's lame excuse that "kissing is not a big deal in the West",[[note]]As a European: No, we don't think forced kissing is okay. And even if we did, it doesn't matter when Nodame is not European.[[/note]] and (2) went on to show zero internal conflict over his admiration for Stresemann and desire to be his protégé.

Japan has made plenty of influential shows and made some extremely memorable moments for as long as anime and manga have existed. But make no mistake, it doesn't spare them from the burning anger and derision that comes from making decisions such as these.
