Why did viewers dislike the second season so much?
From the very beginning, manga fans and new viewers loved the adaptation of The Promised Neverland, as it was quite intriguing and interesting, and also followed the original source. But what the anime authors did in the second season was not to the liking of many viewers.
The first thing that immediately catches your eye is how quickly events are developing.
Yes, in the first season the narration was also quite dynamic, but in the second season the authors seemed to want to cover most of the story (more than 150 chapters) and compress it into just a few episodes (and, of course, they didn't succeed).
Due to this, important events of the whole story and entire fascinating arcs of the manga were simply skipped. Some fans even point out that the second season can even be considered an original story rather than an adaptation because of the large number of inconsistencies and some disregard for the original source.
Also, due to the fast pace of the story and the skipping of arcs, fans did not see on screen many of the characters who were very loved in the manga. In addition, the personalities of some already established characters have changed compared to the first season.
Some of the characters' actions and motivations seem not entirely clear, again, perhaps due to the fact that their story is not fully revealed. All this has led to the point that even viewers unfamiliar with the manga, and basing their impression only on a comparison of the first and second seasons, note that the narrative has become too chaotic and incomprehensible.
But what got fans furious the most was the ending. The creators, unable to meet the number of episodes given to them to finish the anime, combined a couple of the final arcs of the manga into a set of pictures that are not explained in any way to the viewer who, for example, is not familiar with the original source.
So not only did they annoy fans who were expecting to see the ending in animation, but they also essentially spoiled the entire ending for people who might want to read the manga and immerse themselves in the full story.
Thus, the second season of The Promised Neverland turned out to be a big disappointment for viewers, and many fans want to believe that there is simply no second season at all.
