A Reddit poll showed that The Promised Neverland Season 2 is fans’ least favorite anime.
There’s great contrast between Season 1 and Season 2.
This contrast is the reason why Season 2 is so hated.
One of the largest Reddit anime communities held a poll to discover which anime is the least liked by the fans. And The Promised Neverland (Yakusoku no Neverland) Season 2 is the victor of the poll. That managed to surprise even us.
We won’t be going into detail as to why Season 2 is so hated by the fans, we’re sure you’ve heard hundreds of people talking about that already. But the fact that the season took first place is quite confusing. It managed to beat even Rent-A-Girlfriend, and it’s much easier to come across viewers hating on it than admiring it.
The creator of the poll points out that none of the series that are in the poll have been voted against by 10% of the community or more. Which means that there isn’t really an anime that everyone commonly dislikes. But still, even with a score of less than 10%, The Promised Neverland Season 2 managed to become the leader in this peculiar poll.
Why the leader?
It has to do something (or even everything) with how good the first season of the series was. The Promised Neverland starts amazingly: there’s hardly anything to criticize.
The art style and animation are top-notch, the characters are likable and relatable, even though they’re just small kids. The suspense is unmatched, and all the plot twists just blow your mind. We could keep going for ages explaining how outstanding the first season was, but here’s the most important thing: it was really good.
All the scores from both fans and critics prove that; this series is often recommended and becomes a regular in various anime tops. And this is why the expectations for a sequel were extremely high.
But then the sequel arrived, and fans couldn’t believe that they were even watching the same story. It was like everything they loved about The Promised Neverland was taken away from it.
And this huge contrast between Season 1 and Season 2 became the reason for such an immense outrage. Not only was the sequel unsuccessful, it also dared to ruin something that fans held so dear. Thus, the furious reaction.
That’s why we can partially understand the results of the poll. It’s one thing to make something bad, and it’s a completely different thing to destroy a good thing with a bad one. But still, worse than Rent-A-Girlfriend?!
Fans really didn’t like the season, huh?
