The sheer inability to create new original stories that are not aggressively repeating something that was popular and well received before, usually at the expense of the characters, who usually have their worst traits exaggerated and their development regressed for the sake of telling them all over again.

The Tournament of Power in the anime being the best arc since before Gokuu landed on Namek is legitimately so funny to me. I'm really curious if the anime team can adapt the Moro stuff and make it more compelling, since there are at least solid ideas in there to toy with.
