Exactly one year later Scott Pilgrim takes off Debuting on Netflix, co-developer/executive producer Bryan Lee O'Malley, on whose graphic novels the show was based, revealed to fans that the anime adventure series has come to an end and there will be no second season.
“We were recently informed that the show will not be returning,” he wrote on X. “As you know, we only intended one season, and we required a lot of favors to make it happen, so it was almost impossible to deliver more. However, I know some of you were holding out hope.
O'Malley and his colleagues, series co-developer/executive producer BenDavid Grabinski, have been preparing fans for the outcome since the eight-episode first season. Scott Pilgrim takes off Released last November.
“It's self-sufficient at the moment. We liked what we did. We put it all out there. We don't have any ideas lying around. We pretty much put them all out there,” O'Malley said of the first season in an interview with Rolling Stone last November. “I never say never, but right now, it seems like it's going to take about 50 different miracles at once for another season to happen.”
“People always complain about how shows get canceled after one season,” O'Malley added at the time. “So we hedged our bets right away and tried to make one standalone season.”
