Subtle details were discarded in what was the first season which helped flesh out the characters much more. The second season not only discluded many major plot points (such as the workings of Quinque and the RC types and details there-of), but actually contradicted them in certain cases (The worst was Kaneki's hair just 'turning' white instead of thinning out, and falling out and regrowing), and didn't even animate the three greatest points of Part I. They couldn't logically animate :re without fucking up the story further. The anime also inserted unnecessary fanservise which only can hurt a non-ecchi series.

I'm sorry, but just because you like it, doesn't mean that nothing's wrong with it. Many things are wrong with it. The series was essentially stripped of its psychological aspect, and was Shonen-ized for the sake of more fanfare from casuals and anime-onlys. The series didn't accomidate the fanbase that was there before it, and focused too hard on drawing in more fans which would of happened if they just stuck to canon. Finally, after seeing the damage done in season 1, Ishida wrote a script for season 2 to save the series, and the studio scrapped it. Brushed it to the side, and did it their way with no regard of the damage it would do to the reputation of the series overall.

I hope this cleared things up, and ultimately makes you appreciate the manga all the more and the anime all the less.

So in turn, if theres anything wrong with anybody (which their isn't), it'd be you.
