Will Parasyte The Grey season 2 come on Netflix and release date update
For those who have already completed the first season, thoughts naturally turn to the possibility of a second instalment.
The Grey is a sci-fi horror series helmed by Hellbound director Yeon Sang-ho and based on the popular Parasyte manga by Hitoshi Iwaaki. Set in the fictional South Korean city of Namil, the story unfolds as mysterious parasitic creatures start to fall from the sky, infecting and taking over humans in an attempt to dominate society.
One young woman becomes infected by a parasite, leading to a unique coexistence between them. Meanwhile, an anti-parasite task force is formed to combat the creatures and eliminate them completely.
Parasyte: The Grey season 1 finale and renewal for season 2
The finale, particularly its final moments left viewers stunned and sets the stage for a possible continuation in Parasyte: The Grey season 2.
Supermarket employee Jeong Su-in gets into a fight with a rude customer who wants to get even with her. He follows her and stabs her several times. Su-in rushes forward but faints in midair. Her body gets taken over by a creature nearby. The assailant is then halved.
Su-in and Detective Kim Chul-min are close friends, thus they report the case to each other. Su-in was saved by Chul-min after reporting her violent father to the police when she was a little child. Even now, Su-in still holds Chul-min in high regard and he shows her a great deal of concern.
Meanwhile, a Seoul-based Special Task Force stops by Namil Police Station to brief the officers.
However, as of April 5, Netflix has not officially renewed the series for a second season. This is not uncommon, as Netflix typically waits to gauge viewership before deciding on renewals.
Netflix considers various factors in the renewal process, with viewing hours and completion rate being crucial. A high completion rate, where viewers watch every episode from start to finish, can significantly increase the chances of renewal. If viewers want to see a Parasyte: The Grey season 2, spreading the word and encouraging others to watch the first season can make a difference. Netflix usually takes about a month or so to announce renewal decisions based on viewing data.
