| Season 1 was, as you said yourself, different the main focus was on Mystery aspects and it had a nice pinch of Psycho in it, also the pacing was good, simply said it was entertaining. Season 2 felt like a fantasy Anime with a cheap plot, Im actually not only blaming S2 but the whole story how it proceeds after they break out. |
| Coming from the perspective of someone who disliked the first season (I loved most of it, HATED the ending), the second season manages to be even worse, its not even that they skipped so much from the manga, I haven't read it, but it was obvious to see them set up an arc then skip it, it was just literally what the fuck is going on half the time on top of that, the pacing was just shit |

| What? You didn't feel the black hole vacuum between chapter 4 and 5?? I haven't read the manga and even I notice these inconsistencies. |

Yuri_Niji said: Some spoilers here of manga. So be careful As someone who has not read the manga. This season was bad. While in the bunker, they did nothing then left. While there was a room that looked important that never got explained. Norman was unbearable to watch during the whole time. The ending was horrible and the bad guy was poorly portrayed ( I do not know if he is good in the manga). And the ending was horrible. She stays then a PowerPoint presentation happens that gives nothing to the watchers and only the manga readers ( how the hell does Emma meeting God end up in a slideshow?) and then she comes back like nothing happens. Op song is a banger though. This sums up my thoughts on this season, as a manga reader I was very disappointed |
| Falling into the Romcom hole. Shonen still my favorite tho. |
| Cuz it's shit, pure and simple. The whole series died with them leaving the plant. The world is just generic isekai stuff with dull social commentary and every new character is trash. It went from a world shrouded in mystery to "we gotta save everyone because we are the good guys" generic shounen 101 storytelling. |

| It's Morbin' Time! |
| Because it ain't good bruh. The pacing is a mess |
 |
| Me too, it was one of the first series i watched, thats why i enjoyed it. I know this season misses alot of stuff but its still not that bad |

| Its fine as an anime-only tbh, these people rate it so low, simply because everybody else is doing it, without forming their own opinion. |
| The manga went down hill, and this is a horrible adaptation by any metric, it isn't "overhated" it's just plain bad. |
| If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that. |
| Second season begs the question: "WHY EVEN BOTHER MAKING THIS SEASON?!" They could've made 2-3 more quality seasons, or waited more years! YET, this adaptation was released and felt like they got bored or lost interest and decided to "fuck it, lets get over with this!" and rushed to the finale instead! Complete disrespect to the source material. Absence of passion and interest to the show. Even laziness. This is how I see season 2. As people mentioned already, they cut out A LOT of content. Imagine if in Harry Potter, they jumped from "Prisoner of Azkaban" to "Half-blood prince", and, instead of 2-part finale, you get 30 minutes of content (mostly final fight) and then several 1-shot frames of certain events and deaths that occurred, then the movie jumps to the train-station final scene and credits roll! Abysmal adaptation! |

| Cause ppl rated the animation studio instead of the anime itself And it seems most of them think the anime and manga should be the same , its a diferent story If i had to compare this anime to my most liked anime , i would give it less than 3 , cause i like thoses a lot more , but if i want to rate the anime , and this anime alone , not the manga , not the other anime , then i would give it 7 , im not going to be the kind of guy who get mad at an animation studio by reducing the score of an anime If i ever read the manga , i will also not reduce its score cause theres no animation or voice actor or cause they didnt include something that was in anime , so why would i reduce the anime cause they reduced the amount of data from the manga , and im actualy happy about removed part , cause they can put new things that arent in manga , increasing character development and story If some ppl want an anime without anything removed from the manga , they should watch anime that dont have a manga , they are called Original Story , such as Madoka Magica So my score is 7 , while the story deserve a 8 , thats not the kind of story you want to rewatch the next day , so minus 1 , and why 8 , well not enough character development , some missed oportunity , like norman return , there wasnt enough reaction from the kids , the last part with the song , we can see emma and that demon , i guess the promisse one , all this part is kind of skiped , yet the anime is 11 episode instead of 12 , for all of this 8 instead of 9 , for an anime to reach 10 , well i cant explain it but it have to have something unique Most of my anime are 7/10 , so its quite average on my rating , i hardly rate less than 3 or more than 7 and i usualy focus anime that should reach a 7 |
Loli world is just a cute world full of cute meat |
| My condolences to your taste if you actually like this dumpster fire. |

| Tbh i will be hated for this take. But i enjoy S2 way more than S1. First of all, i joined the Promised Neverland train after hearing how bad s2 it is compared to season 1, but tbh, season 1 was one of most boring things i recently watched alongside Dragon Ball: Super Hero. First season is 1:1 Michael Bay's "The Island" with some Orwell elements and so much filler, you can build a next great wall of china out of it. I swear, you could pack entirety of S1 into 5-6 episodes and the show wouldnt lose anything from the plot. Atm im on chapter 5 of Season 2 and even though its still "The Island" clone with now some Horizon elements, its much more bearable as the show is much faster and more action packed, but not enough to bore me as a viewer cuz imo pacing is well managed. Im hopeful it will stay as good till the end of it, but for now its already better than entirety of s1 which even though it tried to do a plot twist on a plot twist type of story, it made me as a viewer exhausted pretty quickly. |
