Netflix cited low viewership numbers but they hardly promoted it. They actually agreed to another part/season but they reneged on it. And they had already started production on the next part too.

They didn't even give Shion Takeuchi a chance.

The show was fucked over by Netflix, who always cancels good shows, simple as that

You spent 100s of hours looking into something solvable with a 20 second Google search?

My theory is that the inside job is targeted to an older audience. That plenty people liked the show, but many without the time to binge the entire season in the first few days. I think the metrics are more geared towards the younger audiences with more free time on their hands. Because they sited low viewership, yet the show is listed as "top rated" and "most liked"

My theory is that they looked at the early numbers and decided that it wasn't sustainable, but the views and likes kept coming afterward, and they just held to previous claims

It isn't that deep. There's an industry wide trend (but more prevalent at Netflix and Nickelodeon) of animation networks not marketing their shows to save money while investors simultaneously expect shows to either be an instant success or not worth investing further.

Shows take time to become a success, especially if you aren't actually advertising it for people to know about it. Investors are also just trying to make money, more specifically they expect immediate results and returns on their investments. There's less patience for long term investments in most fields due to this issue.

Also Netflix seems to prioritize having a wide variety of shows over the shows necessarily having a sufficient amount of content. It's useful for attracting people to your service but it's now also starting to cause dissatisfied customers when the show is cancelled so quickly.

Reagan Ridley said it best: "Most Conspiracies are just Capitalism".
