I don't know if this is a named phenomenon:

But if not, I wish it to be known as Wakos Law:

"As a piece of media grows longer, the probability of a it becoming misery porn or to fall back on cheap depressing story archs in an attempt to keep it interesting approaches 1"

And Wakos Law is both True (outside Shonen Anime. They seem to be able to keep shit running on the same pace for DECADES) and fucking irritating. I just want my comfort shows to STAY comforting. Is that really too much to ask for?

It is true, tho.

In fact I was being too kind giving Shonen anime a pass. Just because DBZ brought the cunts back to life every single time, doesn't mean it doesn't count when the entire point of killing them off in the first place was to stir up sadness and angst.

I sympathize, but also, as a good data analyst, I must ask for examples/evidence
