That’s your opinion (that we suck and that the anime was good). It doesn’t matter if it followed the manga, it was still bad. It would seem then that the burden of Suck is actually on the manga, if the anime indeed followed it.

You guys suck. Second season was actually pretty good, followed the manga. Most animes that fail don’t follow the manga, although there are some exceptions.

This is one of those decisions which is at the discretion of the studio: to faithfully follow the manga or take it in a different direction. I vote for the departure route. Points though to the studio for faithfulness, although it was a bad call.

I agree that the bitsy characters were a major distraction. Unnecessary in a story which has so much going on.

It wasn’t the wait that bothered me as much as the shortcomings of the series. The baffling part of it is that it really didn’t have to suck.

To be fair, Season 2 (up to where I stopped) did almost exactly follow the events of the manga, so really, the critisisms put forth here should be leveled towards the original author. When you create dozens of 1-note side characters that begin to overlap each other, you’ve got problems. A better idea would’ve been to concentrate the story’s focus on the main bunch instead of adding more and more.

Because of the long wait between the seasons my expectations of the 2nd season were higher and I was greatly disappointed
