Every great story is supposed to have an ending, but unfortunately, fans of some anime series have yet to see the ending of their favorite shows. Not only that, but some don't even get to see a second season. For various reasons, there have been lots of successful anime series that have disappeared over the years.
However, fans should still have some hope because a good deal of anime has returned recently such as Bleach, The Devil Is A Part Timer, and Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt. Fans would be over the moon if more anime continue the trend and make their comeback to the anime scene.
10 Prison School Needs To Escape Its Long Hiatus
Prison School is quite the whirlwind and is one of the funniest anime out there. The main plot of Prison School focuses on five boys who enroll in a previously all-girls school. For various reasons the guys are outcasts by the girls at this school and are sent to the school prison where they are tortured.
While this may sound serious, Prison School drowns it out by focusing on the ridiculous punishments and pure randomness the boys have to go through. Prison School has been unheard of since 2015 and deserves a second season.

However, Rin decides to defend the humans and teams up with his brother, Yukio, to become an exorcist. Blue Exorcist is worth a watch even if fans never see a third season.

The members of the diving club do a surprising lack of diving and often party and drink the entire time.

4 Noragami Has Something For Everyone
Despite Noragami having two successful seasons, fans have not seen a new season since 2015. Noragami follows Yato, a minor god without a shrine seeking fame and money, but to do so he spends all day doing random jobs for only five yen.
One day, Yato saves a girl named Hiyori from a moving car. While she did survive, the incident caused Hiyori's soul to escape, and it will sometimes wander out of her body. Yato eventually agrees to fix her and the two of them, along with Yato's "regalia" Yukine, go on adventures with a cast of great characters. Noragami has a little something for everyone and fans would like nothing more than to see it return.
3 Hajime No Ippo Needs Time To Become The Champion
Sports anime over the last few years have done very well, so there is no reason why Hajime No Ippo shouldn't be there with them. This series has three seasons and over 100 episodes that follow the underdog story of Ippo Makunouchi and his journey to becoming the greatest boxer of all time.
Hajime No Ippo has a fantastic cast of characters and some of the greatest fights viewers will find in anime. The last season in 2013 leaves so much in the air, including a long-awaited rematch between Ippo and his rival, Ichirou Miyata. Ippo Makunouchi and his iconic Dempsey Roll still have much to prove in this iconic boxing anime.
2 One-Punch Man Is An S-Class Anime
Almost every anime fan knows about One-Punch Man even though it is far from completed and only has two seasons. While the last season aired in 2019, there has been a lot of uncertainty as to what is happening with this series. Seasons 1 and 2 are both done by different animation studios and neither has said a word about a third season.
One-Punch Man features the adventures of the overpowered superhero Saitama and cyborg Genos, and it is too popular not to be airing currently. The anime adaptation still has a lot of excellent content to cover from the manga and fans of the series are eagerly waiting for more.
1 Hunter X Hunter Has No Excuses To Not Return
Unlike some of the other anime that have disappeared, there was a reason for Hunter x Hunter's incompletion. Over the past few years, Yoshihiro Togashi, Hunter x Hunter's creator, has been ill and has been unable to continue the series.
Because of this, Hunter x Hunter had adapted almost all the content the manga had to offer, leaving both the manga and the anime adaptation unfinished. To fans' excitement, though, Yoshihiro Togashi recently announced that new chapters of Hunter x Hunter are in the works — meaning there is a good chance that fans could see the popular adventure anime return.
