How did a series that started with such promise end up being so shit?

Because no one else but Based Haruto became a S.T.A.L.K.E.R

But then he died
And they never showed the part where they reveal that he's literally immortal

Also the 360°NoScope was cool

Wait, how was there ever any promise? This series was awful from the get-go. Didn't even pass my 3 episode test.

Manga was enjoyable until it went full shonen.

Yeah, trained soldiers in SCHOOL UNIFORMS FOR LITERALLY NO REASON, great premise

I liked it, though I don't really remember very well what happened past the 5th chapter.

I will admit that I ended up enjoying it for what it was after reading the manga.

But was awesome.

They should've animated >>146278316 instead if they wanted schoolgirl espers.

Read the manga. It ended only recently and is much better than the anime.
