The Promised Neverland Sparks Debate After Fans Rally for Cancellation

The Promised Neverland is coming under fire these days, and some fans think the show has lost its way with season two. Earlier this year, the series made a big comeback as season two made its awaited debut. The big release quickly earned ire after it was made clear a pivotal arc was being skipped over or moved. And now, well - it seems netizens are warring over whether the show needs to continue.

The whole ordeal kicked off when a fan on Twitter made the plea. The user The25thBam_ had enough of season two when it failed to properly introduce some fan-favorite characters. The newcomers prompted the user to back support for the anime's cancellation, and as it turns out, their ire is shared by many others.
