アニメ that surprised あなた with "genre shift"

This also applies to the manga. Say the アニメ stops in the middle of the マンガ & the マンガ carries on the story. Also applies when the アニメ & the マンガ are not alike.

Examples:
*Can't verify this, but I hear Negima starts as a harem comedy & changes into an action tournament series.

*Shadow 星, つ星 Narutaru: Holy s**t did that get dark.

*Black Butler: Starts as a horror series with some comedy & plenty of ecchi. The マンガ is currently a total sausagefest with amped up Ho Yay. Mangaka also seems to be parodying stuff like Richard Brown's "Titanic with Zombies" & Harry Potter.

*Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro: Starts as a mystery comedy. After then アニメ ends, the マンガ switches into action horror.

*Any CLAMP movie is an alternate universe version of the series; Rayearth & X1999 especially.

*Excel Saga ファン wanting less ecchi & lots of ランダム comedy would have been deeply disappointed によって the manga.

I know!! I only saw moments of the アニメ on YT so I had a basic knowledge of what it was about, but then I saw the movie and flipped. The 表示する is amazing! The plot, characters... it isn't the average high school 表示する and I 愛 it. ^^

Can あなた say surprise dark plot? xD
The cute art drew me in, but then I realized just what kind of awesome, fast-paced 表示する of fighting I had gotten myself into.
This is one of those 'don't judge the book によって its cover' アニメ series. ~
