Doesn't happen if you only watch obscure >decade old single season animes

Never mind the fact that I'll never find another person who watched and liked From the New World, or Canaan, or Flip Flappers

Except this literally happened to old single season anime FLCL which started getting new seasons fifteen years later.

Flip Flappers was a trip. Loved that show.

Canaan was the shit! Try finding fans of Bubblegum Crisis, Noir, Eatman, or Bakumatsu Kikensetsu Irohanihoheto; 90s anime kids don't get together and have rewatch parties lol

Try finding me in one year when I've watched all of those shows

Thanks for the recommendations!

You're in for a treat with Bubblegum Crisis. I'd also recommend Nyan Koi, Evangelion (totally not niche but why not), and for a recent anime that has a 90s feel, Megalo Box. I'm a trove of anime suggestions lol

From the new world is phenomenal.

Personally I see it as a selling feature knowing that an anime is only going to be one or two cour. I don't like to watch series that never end so it's nice knowing that the story has a conclusion.

Who said that these anime ends after one season? Many times, they have a cliff hanger ending because the producers were hoping to get a second season or they are a faithful adaptation of the first part of a manga that is only half finished.
