I know nothing about this show. I´m very interested in watching it, but looking at the rating of Season 1 and Season 2 makes me very hesitant. I know S01 is very beloved but S02 is completely hated upon, so can someone explain to me what happened in S02 that made people completely hate it?

Wake up to reality! Nothing ever goes as planned in this accursed world.The longer you live, the more you realize that the only things that truly exist in this reality are merely pain, suffering and futility.Everywhere you look in this world,wherever there is light, there will always be shadows to be found as well.As long as there is a concept of victors, the vanquished will also exist.The selfish intent of wanting to preserve peace, initiates war and hatred is born in order to protect love.

I was told that S2 is a fan fiction, so I didn't bother watching it. I was satisfied with the way S1 ended and didn't wanna ruin my experience so I didn't bother watching S2

Just cause ur new I'll explain it
it's an unspoken rule that S2 doesn't exist in the fandom

S2 is hated because it is an abysmal atrocity compared to S1 , it skipped the most popular arc in the manga , and just derailed from there. utter garbage

The 2nd season was bastardized as a whole. It started off fine but then an original scenario for this season was revealed and it turned out to just follow the manga but in such a rushed manner with bits and pieces being original, and rushed all the way till the very end incomprehensibly. It was just an utter mess compared to how intricate and well-paced season 1 was. Many, many plotholes are there too.

S2 is absolute BS. S1's adaptation was okay.
S2 at first, didn't seem bad (I also thought it was).
Your opinion, however, will heavily change after you read the manga. They skipped LOTS of chapters. The manga has about 200 chapters iirc and almost over 100 chapters were skipped. There were lots of very nice arcs. Goldy Pond, specifically. iirc the ending of the anime wasn't even cannon. There are so much story changes and skips. Like in S2 in that bunker, yeah, in the manga there's actually a man. S2 really chose not to include him. The ending is also better in the manga.
yes.

I've read the manga and what i think and say to my friends who dont watch many anime and dont read any manga is similar what you said. Its good and they might like it but if you know the story from the manga it will disapoint you, but they dont read manga so the can give it a try

season 1 was perfect. season 2 was bad because they skipped a lot of the events that happened in the manga. so events developed fast and there was no plot. Season 1 is watchable, but I wouldn't recommend watching season 2

Season 1 is perfect and I still highly recommend it. Season 2 took over 100 chapters from the manga and put into 12 chapters, cutting out huge arcs and lots of material. I recommend continuing from the manga after finishing Season 1 to get the correct experience of the series.

Season 1 is good, i recommend it.

Season 2 is hated because it's very rushed, it skipped an entire arc called "Goldy Pond", an arc that manga readers really enjoyed. I heard it's because the author wasn't satisfied with how he ended the arc, so i hope there will be something like an OVA/movie for that arc where he can make some prior adjustments if he wants to.

season 2 didn’t include the best part of the whole story. it left out many special characters, locations, and whole entire arcs. watch season 1, and read the manga from there. you won’t regret it (i bought the whole series TT)

It just doesn’t follow the manga and cuts a big part out I believe. As someone who’s only watched the anime, it was okay up till until the last 6 episodes of season 2 and there’s a dip in quality at least for me where I wasn’t interested in what was going on.

(I have no spoilers for the show Dw)S1 was about escaping the house s2 was about the life outside the walls. People didn’t really like it because the mood was totally different. S1 had a heart stopping feeling that makes you want to see one more episode because you’re curious of what’s gonna happen next. Its was creepy and I always had an adrenaline rush. S2 wasn’t so intense, especially the ending, it was just your typical ending of every basic kids movie.

In season two they cut all of the manga’s content and skipped straight to a bastardised version of the ending. It’s pretty much shit.
However, the manga also isn’t worth it, because it loses itself after a bit.
The best way to experience TPN is just to watch season 1 and stop there, since it does work as a self-contained story.

THANK YOU! I am RIGHT there with you. I won't lie, the second season was very disappointing, not nearly as good as s1, but I will not down rate it bc it didn't follow a manga I DIDNT READ

Basically season 1 is everything you can hope for in an anime season 1, so definitely give it a watch. But after that, read the manga. That is because season 2 takes the story of the manga, throws it out of the window and thinks it can so better. Well, it did not. It skipped almost everything of the manga and made the dumbest ending imaginable. They basically tried to fit around 130+ chapters worth of story and character development in 12, 20 minute episodes.
If you end up liking season 1, I can assure you that the manga is doing it justice.

watching season 1 is honestly worth it, everything about it is really well done. tbh you could finish at s1 unless you really want to know what happens next

the problem with season 2 is that it’s super rushed and the overall quality declines a lot making it kinda hard to watch, hence the terrible rating - if u wanna watch season 2, go for it but don’t have high expectations, otherwise people usually suggest picking up the manga instead

The S1 is really good, I recommend watching.
The problem with S2 is how it was adapted, they cut the whole story.
Maybe seeing S1 and reading the rest of the story isn't a bad option.

The second season takes the great animation of the first and the solid story of the manga, including some of the most INTRIGUING PLOT POINTS, and reduces it to a rushjob slideshow mess of half-baked story pieces. It also cuts several characters completely, who end up being critical to the best arcs later on.

Essentially, they go anime-original in the worst way.

Season 1 is a 9/10.

Season 2 is a 3/10 and that’s being generous.

Yes, it’s that bad.

If you want the story, just read the manga. It starts as a real masterpiece (10/10 shit) and then it gets worse past the first arc.

Not “unreadable worse”. Just an 8/10 instead of a 10/10.

Beginning is a 10/10. Middle of the manga is a 9/10 and then the ending is a 6/10. The ending is really not impressive at all lol. Easily the worst part. Everything after Yugo’s death kinda sucks.

Hell, and Yugo wasn’t even in the anime lol. They skipped the best character of the series.

Overall, I give it an 8/10.

As for the anime?

We don’t talk about the anime.

the anime is great in season 1, absolutely worth going into blind. season 2 has gone anime original though and has basicly skipped out on what most people (not me) see as the best arc in the manga, it destroys the characters, completely ruins one of the more emotional scenes and has a stupid anime original ending to the story that basically looks like a powerpoint slideshow. its better if you just forget season 2 exists and pick up the manga after seasoon 1 (chapter 57 i believe)

honestly the manga does get a bit bad after arc one (s1) and i would have prefered it if it just ended after that, the rest isnt really that good and i would just stop after season 1 for a satisfying open end
hope this helps

No one clearly explained it , so i'll do it.

Basically , the 2nd Season skipped a lot of chapters (whole Arcs) , but still continued the story as if they did got adapted.
It results in a very clear cut between how the characters acts in one episode , and how they do in the next.
It leads to a complete incomprehension of the viewer because of a lot of missing infos , especially if the viewer did not read the Manga.

So those who have read the Manga can't understand what happen and why , while those who have read it can't see their favorite moments appear on screen.

Season 1 followed the manga well and it created a great start for the story and was paced well and is definitely worth a watch.

Season 2 is around 150 chapters of manga slimmed into 12 episodes with one of the best arcs missing and lots of other problems so I wouldn’t even bother checking it out

Season 1 is what all the fans acknowledge. No one cares for season 2 mainly because it was very rushed and majority of it wasn’t really canon in the manga. If you wanna watch it, just watch season 1.
