What Shows Would Have Improved If They Have Less Episodes? (reddthat.com)

Death Note is a popular answer, and I also agree that its ideal stopping point is...

Death Note

L's death

Bocchi the Rock is another show that I felt would be at its best if it stopped at episode eight. If the upcoming compilation movie stops there, I may consider it superior to the TV series. It's not unheard-of. Violet Evergarden's film-length recap stopped at Episode 10.

I want to see more of Bocchi-chan's rock!

The title drop + roll credits is its peak and climax. I hoped its finale would be amazing. However, episode eight overshadowed episode 12. Everything after E8 felt like a lede for an S2.

What are yours?

Yeah, assuming you're talking about the US one, I have to agree it definitely loses itself towards the end. It just starts bringing in crazy caricatures instead of fully formed relatable characters because the goofier parts of the established cast were received well. Once Catherine Tate shows up, I'm eyeing the exits.
