* Anime series in general tend to hit Dork Ages when the anime [[Overtook the Manga|overtakes the manga]] and, as a result, goes into a [[Filler Arc]].
* Once Yoshida Reiko left the ''[[Tokyo Mew Mew]]'' project, Ikumi Mia tried to write a sequel incorporating the [[Retcon|retcons]] made in the TV show and replacing Ichigo with a new character named Berii. Ichigo herself [[Brought Down to Normal|lost her powers]] except as a living accessory to the new heroine, her origins and family life were completely ignored in favor of [[Put Onon a Bus|sending her to Europe]], and she became a washed-up hero. It's no surprise ''Tokyo Mew Mew a la mode'' has a high degree of [[Fanon Discontinuity]] amongst fans who also [[The Scrappy|really dislike Berii]].
* For some portion of the fanbase, ''[[Magical Record Lyrical Nanoha Force|Magical Record Lyrical Nanoha FORCE]]'' has becoming this for the main continuity of the franchise.
* There's a probability of ''[[Bleach]]'' enteringentered this with The Lost Agent arc, with a new set of characters we've never seen before, whole new kinds of powers, a plot that is almost completely unrelated to everything we've seen before, and the overall feeling of the filler arcs from the anime.
** To be fair, all the new stuff got added because just about every big plot point up until got resolved except for two, {{spoiler|the fact that Aizen's still alive, and Ichigo losing his Shinigami powers}}. One of them is being handled in this arc, and the other one fans do not want to show its face again for quite a while.
* ''[[Lupin III]]'' has the pink-jacket era, which consists of the third anime series and the ''Legend of the Gold of Babylon''. Both the series and the movie had [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|Lupin wearing a]] [[Real Men Wear Pink|pink jacket]], most of the adult themes downplayed and the slapstick brought [[Up to Eleven]]. Today, it is [[Discontinuity|widely ignored]] by both the anime producers at [[TMS Entertainment]] and most fans in general.
* Depending on who you ask, ''the whole anime industry'' between 2008 and 2012, due to the convergence of the popularity of [[Moe]] series pandering to the [[Otaku]] demographic, the increasing in piracy, the diminution of interest on anime and manga from Western fans (as many of the new productions of the era didn't appeal to western sensibilities), and the subsequent disinterest of Japanese for licensing their proprieties abroad while [[Cash Cow Franchise|milking their local market]] for what it was worth. The popularity of streaming services like Crunchyroll and [[Netflix]], which made licensing costs more feasible and give the licensers more control over their production's international broadcast, along with new anime and manga series who have a more universal appeal, are bringing the industry into a resurgence; time will say if this sustains.
