Separate from any discussion of whether Gou should've been a sequel or not, I think we can all agree that it should at least be interesting.

3 Reasons To Skip: Kiznaiver
Anime can take liberties with realism, but Kiznaiver is an example that just does whatever and expects you to stay invested.
3 Reasons To Skip: Kobato
It's hard to take the stakes seriously and be invested in the story when the plot will hand Kobato so many freebies.
5 Reasons To Skip: Gangsta
While this is an interesting premise to draw people in, Gangsta does a very poor job at managing the scope of its story.
4 Reasons To Skip: Island
Island is great at hooking you in with its strong premise and fascinating mysteries, but it falls apart when it starts giving answers.
3 Reasons To Skip: Euphoria
Maybe if I read the visual novel I'd be writing a positive review right now, but I don't quite feel like seeking out more Euphoria.
5 Reasons To Skip: BOFURI
Many other series have done this premise before in more interesting coats. BOFURI's slapdash structure feels insincere.

5 Reasons To Skip: Overlord
Purpose? What’s that?
5 Reasons To Skip: Hyouka
As low-stakes as the mysteries in Hyouka are, they still make unreasonable demands of the audience if they wish to participate.
5 Reasons To Skip: Yumeria
Even if Yumeria did want to be a parody, that wouldn't matter. What few laughs it gets are sparse and everything in-between was tedious
5 Reasons To Skip: Geneshaft
It almost feels like Geneshaft was intended as a parody at some stage of its creation, before going down the edgy route instead.

3 Reasons To Skip: Maid Guy
The premise of combat maids protecting their master from danger is fun, but Maid Guy forgot to actually put in any danger.
3 Reasons To Skip: EAT-MAN
A merc taking on jobs in a rough sci-fi world sounds like a cool, action-packed anime, but that is distinctly not what EAT-MAN is like.
3 Reasons To Skip: True Tears
It takes effort to write a harem anime without a single likeable character in it, but True Tears pulls it off. And no, it's not deliebrate.
6 Reasons To Skip: Cautious Hero
At times Cautious Hero more closely resembles the loudest and crudest of American cartoons than an anime comedy.

At times Cautious Hero more closely resembles the loudest and crudest of American cartoons than an anime comedy.
5 Reasons To Skip: Bible Black
The problem isn't that Bible Black is "too dark" or anything. Its grimdark plot just doesn't save it from being absolutely boring.
3 Reasons To Skip: Dragon Pilot
a lot of the drama in Dragon Pilot felt immature to me, literally as if middle school story arcs were rewritten to fit a workplace setting.
3 Reasons To Skip: Magimoji Rurumo
Magimoji Rurumo feels like a product nobody in the creation process cared about. It only exists to fill space.
3 Reasons To Skip: Green Green
Even if you go into it looking for some sleazy ecchi fun—as I did—Green Green still feels so thoroughly un-fun.
5 Reasons To Skip: Lucky Star
With strong vision and dedication, Lucky Star could have turned out very interesting. Instead it's content with wallowing in old glory.
