Sometimes there's a [[Sequel]] that attempts to address complaints people had with the original, or build upon the original's perceived strengths. Sometimes, in its attempt to do so, though, it may lose track of what made the original so great for many. If that happens, there may be a huge split in the fanbase, with some fans saying that the sequel is an excellent improvement, with others saying that the sequel's improvements aren't worth the other changes made. This can result in large flame wars when someone who prefers the original argues with those who consider the sequel to be superior.

== Anime
* A lot of [[Sunrise (company)|Sunrise]] series sequels tend to get these:
** ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny]]'' gets so much hate that it even effects how people now view ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED]]''. The primary reason for the hatred was poor battles, the Earth Alliance being incompetent, and characters getting [[Idiot Ball|dumber]] as the series went on. Kira was supposed to be a [[The Stoic|stoic]] older warrior but often came off as simply not having a personality.

* ''[[The Batman]]'' was tossed into this the moment it was announced. Though the show was totally unrelated to TNBA and was a reboot, but some TNBA fans felt it didn't live up to "the standard." Eventually the show grew into its own path and found its own unique take on the characters.
* ''[[Batman: The

** The series finale of ''Brave and the Bold'' [[Take That, Audience!|took a swipe at the fandom]] over this trend. [[This Loser Is You|Batmite]] goes through lengthy attempts to get Brave and the Bold cancelled because he wants a more serious series like B:TAS. When he succeeded, the show ends up getting replaced with a CGI ''Batgirl'' series. [[Hypocritical Humor|Batmite immediately starts complaining about preferring Brave and the Bold,]] especially when he realizes he's not going to be able to [[Shoo Out the Clowns|show up in a]] [[Darker and Edgier]] series.
* Some will argue that ''[[An American Tail]]: Fievel Goes West'' is better than the first movie because it's [[Lighter and Softer|not as depressing]] and it spends more time developing secondary characters, plus, you know, it has [[John Cleese]] playing a villain. Others would argue that making the movie [[Lighter and Softer]] completely took away what made the first movie so great in the first place.
* ''[[All Dogs Go to Heaven|All Dogs Go to Heaven 2]]''. While most fans of the first movie consider the second to be totally inferior because they say that it mostly lacks everything from the original, some say that it's a superior followup to the original because it's [[Lighter and Softer|not depressing]] and it has a good story with catchy songs.
* Season 2 of [[My Little Pony:
** Though a lot of the complaints seem to have subsided now that most of the season is out.
* ''[[The Ren and Stimpy Show]]''{{'}}s "Adult Party Cartoon." Many fans of the original show criticized the show's revival for being completely different than the show they grew up with, for being too dirty, and for being poorly written. However, fans of the APC praise it for going back to John K's roots and original ideas, which were snatched away from him when he was fired and Games took Spumco's place. Fans of the APC praise the show for its humor (which they claim wasn't THAT dirtier than the original series,) the noticeably smoother, more dynamic animation, and the writing. While non-fans despise the show for having "ruined" Ren and Stimpy, fans call the APC a "masterpiece."
* ''The Rescuers Down Under'', a sequel to ''[[The Rescuers (Disney film)|The Rescuers]]'', has often been claimed by others to be better than the first film for [[Animation Bump|more fluid animation]], [[Scenery Porn|beautiful shots of the Australian Outback]], and Cody, a child less annoying than [[Cousin Oliver|Penny]].
* Season three of the ''[[Total Drama Island|Total Drama]]'' series, ''Total Drama World Tour''. Is has its fans, but there is a rather vocal portion of the series fandom that dislike it. Reasons include belittling some fan favorites (Ezekiel, Bridgette, and arguably Izzy and Noah) and continuing the Courtney/Duncan/Gwen love triangle, a plot which many found tiring even during the season before.
