Yakusoku no Neverland

This was the first manga that I have read. after watching the first season of the anime, I have this urge to find out what happened next and when I found out that the manga was finished, I immediately started reading it. I pretty much enjoyed the story. it made me feel different types of emotion, there were instances that while I was reading tears fell down my eyes. I felt like the ending was a bit rushed and that they can continue the story but decided to stop it. All in all this was a good manga.

The story was a 10 for me because you never know what will happened to the character. The art was an 8 because there were some scenes wherein I cannot distinguished was was going on, but I didn't mind it because just by reading the text I was able to distinguished what was going on. Character was a 9 because of the demons and a man named Peter Ratri. I enjoyed the story so it was a 10. Overall for me it was a 10 and that I hoped that you guys can enjoy reading this manga.

((SPOILERS AT THE END))
I feel like most of these reviews were positive because of the anime (which did a great job, by the way! I would suggest watching the anime and waiting for the second season than to read the manga after the first season like I did. It was a mistake.)

Now, the storyline was such a good premise. It had a thing going in the first arc, and it seemed like it was going smoothly. It had good side characters, and while Emma was a good character, she wasn't the best. The story felt very rushed, as each chapter there was a new death or a twist. It was fine and dandy at first, but then it got tiring. The story kept focusing on emma, even when the deaths were of people that were closer with the other side main characters. The deaths were focused on emma's reactions instead, even though it couldve been used as a much better developed arc for one specific other main character.

You could tell the writers ran out of ideas at the end, as they just wanted to use twists and pulled out deaths and a random redemption arc (which was literally put in one chapter? It went by quickly and I could feel nothing for this specific character.)

I wanted to give it a 5, though I dont want to be too harsh as the premise was originally a good idea, but If you want something that's rushed and if your waifu is emma (as you want the entire story focused on her), then this is great for you. Otherwise, Id suggest just waiting for the second season of the anime coming out, instead of reading this manga, as the anime timed the arc MUCH better.

ohhh man,I was so excited for this manga,it's the only manga that I read about 60+ chapters of in one day,it started really great with the thriller and mystery storytelling,then continued to be really great in almost all aspects,then it began to unfortunately plummet to a rushed storytelling. I liked the art -but not all the time- ,the story was what grabbed me to read it,it was really great,and then I found myself waiting every week to read every new chapter just for the sake of reading them,not for how good the chapters were.
about the characters,at first they were helpless shounen protagonists,then became unstoppable with the magic of plot armor,every plot twist we had in mind was averted,everything in the story seemed like it was on a straight line.
so,we put the protagonists in a really dangerous situation,don't worry no matter what happens they will make it.
(spoilers) about the ending,for what it is,for me it's good,but not that good,if the series continued with the great storytelling it had from the beginning,the ending would've been much much better,but regarding what happened to the story,this ending is fitting.
I just hoped that they had enough time to resolve some unresolved mysteries.
overall:it's not that bad,but unfortunately it went downill,I give it a 7 out of 10.

This manga had one of the best starts, escape arc was just fire. I liked this manga the way it was going. I'll say that I am a BIG fan of drama, especially drama endings... why? cos drama endings are just full of emotions, nostalgia, memories, the feelings, and makes u remember everything from the start of the manga what happened, the characters, their feelings, story, etc.
(spoilers)
but I'll admit this one was not just a drama ending, it was a little DARK ending.
Imagine if they never met Emma in the last chapters, that would have been at the darkest and a BAD ending. at least they got to meet Emma and was something positive in the end...
I enjoyed manga myself, Idk why people hate it. everything was great, Emma was a little annoying character, but in the latest chapters, I understand her and liked a little. the ending was very very emotional, love this kind of endings.
the author knows how to start and how to end the story properly.
I enjoyed this manga... it was GREAT.

-SPOILERS- heh.. sorry

Don't get me wrong, I love this series. It just kind of went downhill after the Goldy Pond Arc for me. The Goldy Pond Arc was exciting and full of action and I loved that. The characters introduced in that Arc were super cool. Later in the story, they kind of became background characters though. Same with Ray.

After the two year time skip (or however long), it started getting rushed. Like next thing you know, the shelter gets blown up and two beloved characters DIE. :( Next they run into two of Norman's allies and they bring them back to Norman's hideout. Though the reuniting was very heartwarming, since they haven't seen each other for years. We get introduced to Norman's squad. They just become background characters like everyone else. Hearing a brief, short summary about how Norman escaped and how he got to where he was, makes you feel like that would of been a great arc to be written in the story and a wasted opportunity.

Before I knew it, I was forced upon the Seven Walls Arc. It was a difficult chapter for me to follow along in. Then not so long after, Norman's plan came into motion and the manga just got crazy. Most of the time I was reading, I had to go back to make sure I was reading it correctly.

The return to Grace Field House had so much going on in it and it was so rushed. Yes, the reunion with Isabella, Phil, and all the kids was super heart warming and then the author just had to pull that stunt. -.-

The ending of the book was super sad but yet again, rushed. I would've liked to see more on how they adjusted to the human world, instead of a quick three or so panels giving a brief summary. It was the right thing to have Ray be the first one to spot Emma since they were together the most and went though a lot.

Overall, I have mixed feelings, but I still liked the manga. Did I love it? At first, yes I did, but it just kind of went downhill.

Hopefully the anime will fix the patches and not make it so rushed. I would of loved to see how Norman escaped, hopefully the anime can incorporate that. The anime will always have a special place in my heart though.

(my first review e.e, sorry if its bad lol)

I'll try to make these ramblings of mine make sense.
Here's the summarization of my entire review: Promised Neverland was great, but the ending could've been better.

Story: 9/10
I would've given this a 10 but the ending was wack so I deducted a point for that. I agree with everyone when they say "the ending was rushed" and "they could've done so much better." The rushed ending is the only flaw this manga has. A supposedly dead character ends up being not dead and does something so easily that would realistically take a lot of effort and struggle to do. The last chapter was the only bad chapter in this entire manga. [spoilers for the ending ahead] I can't discuss the ending without spoiling it so here we go. Emma losing her memory and living in some unknown village with a grandpa for 2 years, was not needed. Even if they did that, they could have at least shown some more parts like the kids going to school, living normal lives, going to the mall, etc. After finding Emma, they could have at least shown her slowly regaining her memories, her fitting in with the others, her having a normal life [spoilers end here.] Anyway, enough about the ending, now for the plot. The plot of this manga is so unique, I don't think I've heard of a story with "children being raised in a farm to be eaten by monsters" as a plot. There were multiple scenes that made me cry. The deaths of characters, the reuniting of characters, etc.

Art: 9/10
The art is amazing, gorgeous, fantastic. It made me fall in love with so many characters. It has so much great character design. The emotions shown by the characters touched me on multiple levels. That time the girl in the dog cap/beanie thingy cried over Yuugo, her face in that panel made me cry too.

Characters: 8/10
The characters in this manga are well written, especially Ray. Ray was a spy, a double agent, he was willing to do whatever he could in order to protect Emma and Norman, well at first it was only Emma and Norman. Now, he would do whatever it takes in order to protect his family. Another well-written character is Phil. He was only 4 when he figured out the secret of Grace House. Learning that you're being raised on a farm so that they can feed your brain to monsters is a traumatizing thing. And yet, he didn't freak out. He didn't cry. He knew what he had to do, he needed to protect his younger brothers and sisters. He had to wait for Emma and the rest for 2 years. 2 years without anyone to lean on. 2 years without sharing the secret to anyone. For a child, that would be so painful, and yet he was able to do it. He is such a strong and well-written character.

Enjoyment: 10/10
While writing the art portion of this review, I decided to go back to a random chapter and look at the art. It was chapter 177. And of course, if you've finished the manga you know what goes down in chapter 177. While reading it again, all the emotions I had from my first time reading it came back. I cried my eyes out. This manga brought me so much joy, sadness, fear, anger. This made me go on a rollercoaster of emotions, that I would gladly ride it again.

Overall, this manga is a 9/10, it would be a 10 but i decided to deduct a point because of the rushed ending. This manga took me 3-4 days to finish reading, so i wouldn't call it an "easy binge" but, you really should read this manga and enjoy it for yourself while waiting for season 2 to air.

The Promised Neverland, like many series, is one that started out strong and then ended in a rather unsatisfying way. However, it was pretty consistent for around three fourths of the story, so it's hard to say it's bad.

The main appeal of the series is the tense plot and exciting mind games, and while some parts do add variety, the roots stay the same. The characters are at their best when each is unique in personality and motive. Even to the end, the story reinvents itself and stays fresh, with only one caveat I will discuss later.

The first arc is the best. Every character has interesting motives and character, and in most ways its a standalone story one could read and move on from. The next arc is also pretty good, with new characters and an interesting world. It is more action heavy, but the strategic element of the beginning is still there.

Then we reach a problem. The next arc is setup for the finale, and it sets the story up to become a 10/10 masterpiece, honestly. The groundwork for an incredible moral exploration is there, but in the end, it doesn't follow through. I don't want to spoil anything, but the ending is just a bit too happy and convenient in my opinion, and the main character doesn't grow any in the final stretch.

One minor problem is that even halfway through, the amount of characters feels bloated. Now, most of the cast are children, and seeing them die would probably be upsetting to many, it would've been the best way to keep the cast fresh.

In terms of art, this is pretty good. Aside from the technical value, the art is simply unique in style, and it fits the series very well. The design of the 'demons' in particular is excellent.

Despite its problems, this is still a good series, and at the very least, you should read the first arc. The anime adaptation is also a great way to experience the story, although the second season seems to be heading in a worrisome path, so you may want to just read the manga after the first arc ends.

Genuinely one of the freshest and most entertaining reads out there. Easy 10/10 for me. The plot, storytelling, art and dialogue is all very refreshing and unique for anything I have ever seen. I really recommend checking this out now that the anime has been confirmed for a second season and now that the final arc has begun in the manga, it is truly a solid read.

The chapters are also weekly so no long waititmes between releases. TPN starts out as a prison break style series and transitions into a more traditional shounen, which kinda turned some people off from the manga, but hey, it was never going to stay the same forever. That was always just one arc.

Honestly, I don't get the hate that this gets. It was a perfectly fine story with a pretty nice and impactful twist in the end. The whole story is a roller coaster that you can't resist and you have to keep reading until you get the answers you are looking for. Honestly, don't listen to the whole hate it receives and give it a try, it is a really nice story and ,unlike in the 2nd season of the anime, this feels rewarding and to have a reason to exist. Also this has Yuugo in it. :3

The only thing that kinda bored me a litttle was the Goldy Pond arc but that had a big impact later in the series and in the characters.

[CONTAINS SPOILERS] Honestly I've never written a review before and I am new to anime and manga in itself (I read AOT first which was very good). I've read a lot of conflicting reviews here but in my opinion I believe TPN Manga deserves a 10. At the start with the Introduction/Jailbreak Arc it instantly captures the readers attention with 3 diverse character types and their world is flipped upside down once they discover the truth of the world they live in.

Ray at first, seems reserved, careless and not concerning himself with others but in reality he does care for Norman and Emma. Although, he saw Emma's plan to escape with everybody as foolish and irrational. However, throughout the story Ray's character develops as he creates bonds with his family and sees why Emma cares so much and why Emma fights to protect these bonds so he takes this as his mission as well. More than anything he wants to see Emma and Norman achieve happiness and freedom over himself. Ray discovered the truth of their world a long time before any of the other children so he was carrying the burden of the truth instead of telling the others as a way to protect their happiness. He takes many risks and his ideals change as he watches Emma with her everlasting hope.

Norman is portrayed as fragile, a generally optimistic character and we see from the start that everything he does is for Emma's happiness. When Norman is 'shipped away' he's assumed dead by the rest of the characters meanwhile he is fighting to escape and reunite with them. When Emma, Ray and Norman are reunited he has not necessarily changed his ideals there is just an increased level of urgency for him to carry out his plans all for the sake of protecting Emma and Ray which is what he wanted from the beginning but the cruel world made him turn to violent substitutes. On a shallow level he becomes seemingly very powerful, aggressive and one-track minded but really he struggles to share his burdens with Emma and Ray because he doesn't want them to get hurt. He takes all of it on as his own responsibility rather than relying on them as he once may have done.

Some dislike Emma due to her over optimistic, easy going attitude but really I believe Emma is one of the strongest, if not the strongest female protagonists I have come across so far. She doesn't just provide empty promises to herself and the children, she pulls through and achieves them. Once she says something she will commit to it, rescue anyone, defeat any villain, all for the happiness of her family. When she realised the truth of the world she was traumatised as you would expect any 12 year old to be but she realises she must toughen up if she is going to be everyone's saviour. In the end she is their saviour, most, if not all the characters would not be anywhere or dead without Emma's help. For a 12 year old she has overcome and achieved many things throughout the arcs and she is critiqued far too harshly even though she is a mere child so of course she will have these hopes and dreams.

The art in this manga is very consistent and excellent as it portrays their emotions and the action superbly as a manga. It adds to the action and makes the story really burst through the screen. Generally I would give the story an 8/10, most if not all the arcs were enjoyable and kept me on the edge of my seat as they unravelled a new secret about their world every chapter. Throughout the story I realised there were no characters that I hated as they were all victims of their world with the key problems being greed and power. Although Emma is young she was well respected by everyone around her due to her resilience and determination to pull through every situation they were put in and the fact she never left anyone behind. She never once thought she was more powerful than another or superior, instead she saw everyone as equals which made her so liked and trusted. Overall, in my opinion this manga is a 10/10 because of the flowing plot and metaphors throughout, the art style which immersed you into the scene, the character development and consistent ideals. These intertwined and made me truly enjoy the manga and added to my interest of reading more manga. All I can say is that I hope the anime continues to be faithful to the manga and I can't wait.

The Promised Neverland - The Best "JUMP Start" Manga.

This is the definitive manga of JUMP Start.
And I do not say this just because I like it, I say it because it is what "feeds" me as a reviewer and I do not want to look bad to dictate anything but "Yakusoku no Neverland" (original name) is the manga that gave me that level of hype since I begin reading the shonen gender.

The new series of Kaiu Shirai (story) and Posuka Demizu (art) premiered on August 1 in issue 35 of Shueisha's Shounen Jump magazine.
The first chapter had 54 pages with a colorful opening page. Shirai and Demizu had previously worked together in a one-shot called "Popy no Negai" in February. To further increase the hype, the manga "Yakosoku no Neverland" is already among the standard Jump lineup of the American Jump - which is not very common, since the new series usually only appear there with the first chapter. I sincerely hope that Viz Media will make the physical version of this series, I will buy it for sure !!

The story begins with a narration telling how the days at the orphanage were happy, which already leads to understand that the narrator's time is the future and he recounts memories. Then it becomes clear that we actually have a (female) narrator. That's right, we have a protagonist this time, her name is Emma.

As the synopsis shows, this tells the story of Emma and her friends living a very good life in the orphanage in which they grew up. Although the rules are strict, the caretaker of the children is kind and has the image of a "mother" for all who live there. But why are they forbidden to leave the place ...?
-> Answer: That has more where it is said.

Half of the 1st chapter shows 3 important points to understand the "sweet" and "cute" scenario in the history: How the orphanage works with it's 38 children and is entirely controlled by a single woman they call Mama (as the mom = mother of the orphans); As everyone is happy and well treated as true brothers; As the protagonist stands out in means to others. Then the darker points of the orphanage begin to appear.

First we see that each one has an identification number tattooed on the neck and this is handled naturally. Then all the children go through a kind of daily test where they have to answer 60 difficult questions of calculation and mathematical logic in 10 seconds, and with this test we find out that Emma, Ray and Norman are the smartest interns.

After the tests, everyone is free to play, but the sequence has the function of showing the reader that at the end of the orphanage grounds there is an immense gate and a kind of wall that surrounds all. They have knowledge of the "outside world" through some books in the library, and many dream of what to do when they leave the place. It is that in this part also we found that the main trio have 11 years old and that the age limit to stay in the orphanage is until the 12 years old. But that ends up being no rule.

In short, this first chapter was spectacular! With beginning, middle and end well defined and very well developed, the desire to continue reading is very great and the expectation is up there for the next chapters. I do not think anyone expected a plot like this happening in this scenario (as sometimes seen as a superpower scenario), and the passage from the quieter parts of the chapter to the heavier ones really came as a surprise and may have scare many readers.

My view of art is this: the draftsman is very good at creating the darkest part of the story. The monsters were very detailed and really scared to look at them. And if there were the best page drawn in the year, the scene where the little girl's body is found would be a strong candidate to win.

In the beginning part of the chapter the art became simpler and was not so spectacular, even because it did not go to detail, unlike the end. I really hope the story goes to that more serious tone, but since it's shonen, not seinen, then it should stay in the middle. Although the attitudes of children seem strange at times because of their age, this is understandable because of the tests that are submitted every day. So it was a beautiful surprise.

The only problem I see in the series is that it drags the story too much in order to be too slow and currently in chapter 19, the story is still about getting out of the orphanage.

I loved it until the very last chapter, which I will try to pretend didn't exist.

But after reading other reviews I realized I was misled and to be honest, it's annoying how easy it was to mislead me.

I only read this because I couldn't wait for the anime to get a second season and for the most part, I did love it! But, there were major flaws that I ignored.

Emma is a huge flaw. Of course, to be honest, in every damn piece of media I read, any time there's a female lead, the risk of this can be very great. Emma is a Mary Sue.

I feel tricked because I really wanted to compare this to something like The Series Of Unfortunate Events, but after giving it some time, I realized it's not. Nothing was learned, characters didn't progress into better OR worse versions of themselves.

Even though I ignored those flaws Norman is still my favorite character. In fact, I think he was the only one that experienced any real change, though I feel like Emma undid that change, which is sad since I relate the most to Norman.

~~Spoilers! From this point on I'll be talking about the last chapter!~~

However,
I can't forgive the last chapter for having a "World Government". That ruined the ending for me and led to me thinking more about this. I get that everywhere is turning into a socialist globalist hell hole, but that, ruined this manga for me and I'm trying to pretend that I didn't read that bit.

It was gross and I don't know if I want to read anything else that the writer of this manga makes.

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD


I'll be honest, I'm a little baffled why so many people didn't like the ending or the story after the initial Grace Field arc. I personally thought it was FANTASTIC. Yes, there are a few parts skimmed or skipped in the manga (such as the one year time skip about half-way through) but I didn't feel it took away from the story a lot. The characters continue to grow, their out looks change, and the stakes get higher and higher.

Plot wise, there are lots of twists and turns that keep an already interesting story enthralling! I loved watching the characters over come every obstacle that came their way and fight no matter how high the stakes.

There are several very good lessons in the series too: dealing with anxiety, self-doubt, faith, genocide, choosing the right choice, being strong, etc. etc. I am impressed with how many the author pulled off and did so very well! It didn't feel preachy at all.

And although the ending is rather bittersweet, (my heart still aches T_T) I thought it was still very well done. It's sad that Emma has forgotten them but they still all meet up and it's clear they live together and build new relationships together. I was honestly worried Emma would die in the end or be left behind or something but was very happy when that wasn't the case!

All in all, I can't recommend the series enough! Very well done.

Okay so this is a rather complicated piece to talk about. "The Promised Neverland" (from this point will be discussed as TPN) is a fantastic piece of work that manages to be many things, but it's no great shock to me that the fanbase can be so divisive with many fans giving it low scores and some contrasting them to give them higher ones. Keep in mind this review will have some very minor spoilers.

I believe that reason that TPN is so divisive because it transitions to many different vibes and genres before it's completed. TPN starts off as a thriller/horror manga with dark fantasy themes and slowly transitions to high fantasy as the series progresses. For that reason, it comes to no great shock to me that many fans were disappointed with the series' evolution.

Not only that, but I think that the themes can at times starkly contrast with the tone of the story, and while in my opinion that's a huge benefit, it's can contribute to the fan's being upset at the direction it sometimes goes.

However despite all of this, TPN manages to pull off the genres and what it's intended purpose is very well. To me, I never had a doubt in my mind that I was reading what the author intended and it was executed well. That said, it's still a hard story to recommend because while the beginning will appeal to horror lovers, I can't say it will continue to do so as it progresses.

The character's are lovely and consistent, but don't always evolve in interesting ways (with some exceptions). The story can at times be a bit silly or convenient. While the tone is fairly consistent, the genre between arcs technically isn't. Also while the story was always entertaining and emotional, there was only a couple of moments that exceeded my expectations with pure excellence.

So why do I think it's a 9/10?

Because to me it nailed the most important things for the story. My favorite characters were the exceptions that were well developed or given great moments (Loved Yuugo, Emma, and Ray). The world is one of the best in fantasy (yes Fantasy, not horror). I think it had a bittersweet and emotionally satisfying ending. While it's several genres, it manages to transition well between them. And above all, it just made me feel a certain way I couldn't quite describe and even if the series failed to always be a 10/10 I was always interested in what would happen next and wondered what would happen to the characters.

But would I recommend it? ...maybe

The funny thing is this manga is difficult to recommend. The tone contrasts it's themes and it has more than one genre. While I thought it was excellent, I understand why some fans would be disappointed. A lot of the things it manages to do well in the beginning, it stops doing for the sake of new ideas and I think it's sometimes quite silly. However, if you're willing to have an open mind about where the story and characters will go, I think you can derive tons of enjoyment from this story especially if you're a fan of both fantasy, and horror. If you don't mind the series becoming taking these kinds of turns, I would give it my highest recommendation.

So if you decide to give it a read, I hope you love it like I did! It's quite the ride.

With every arc, with every chapter, it just gets better.

What made me read the manga was of course the anime itself which at that time was still ongoing. The world this author created was truly tragic, terrifying, and yet hopeful.

With the escape arc, I thought I knew how the story will go but I was completely wrong. I felt the pain of the characters, their struggle, their hope and at the end I was always rooting for them.

Truthfully, all I remembered was the pain I felt every arc. Since the story is kind of like a survival challenge every day. But what I love about it is the character's value for each other. That "family prevails all" type of lesson. You'll also love the characters so much, and see their struggle of how an apocalyptic world could change you for better or for worse.

No chapter was boring for me. It kept me guessing and it kept me questioning on what's going to happen next. There are a lot of plot twists -- and its the best kind, even though it'll excite or hurt you as a reader.

The hype that this manga is getting is really worth hyping for. Even if its already at chapter 137, not once did I got bored. The mystery and excitement is still there and its still getting bigger and bigger as the story progresses.

But what astounds me are the protagonists of the story. I'm looking forward on what's going to happen with their journey. Because as of now, its a bumpy road.

SPOILER WARNING

This may be an unpopular opinion, and you are allowed to disagree with me all you want, but I thought this manga was fantastic from beginning to end. I will admit that some parts near the end were a bit rushed, like Norman's redemption and Isabella's death, but it wasn't so terrible that it ruined my enjoyment of the series as a whole. It's honestly such an interesting and compelling world with lots of great characters and wonderful artwork, and I couldn't recommend it enough, especially with whatever the hell cloverworks is doing with season 2. Something that did kind of annoy me was how passive Emma was towards Peter in the ending. I know that taking another person's life is a hard thing to do, even if they deserve it, but I feel like she gave him a little too much mercy. Other than some minor problems, this was a wild ride of a manga and I will not stop gushing about how much I adore it. I loved all the psychological horror aspects, the farm system is such an interesting and unique concept that I've never seen played out in this way before. The concept of children being eaten by monsters has been around for centuries, but I've never seen it with such a creative spin. Not to mention Emma (in my opinion) is one of the best female protagonists out there. I feel like a lot of people think to make a "strong" female character, she has to be cold and harsh, but Emma completely turns this troupe on it's head. I loved watching her grow and change, along with all the other characters, especially Norman and Ray, I could write a whole essay about their friendship oh my god. Sorry if this just seems like incoherent rambles, I'm just really passionate about this series.

"I'll show you something cool, so just shut up and come." -Norman

What will you do if someday you realize one of the persons you love the most is the responsible of the deaths of your be loved family?

I'll be sincere, I first discovered the anime, the first episode was enough to rise my curiosity about the plot. I watched the anime in one day and because I couldn't wait for the second season, as soon as I finished it I decided to read the manga. I reached the serialization chapter and followed the final arcs each week. I enjoyed a lot each plot twist, suffered the deaths and also in general I obtained a bittersweet sentiment as the manga finished. Now, even if I already know the story I will patiently wait to the second season of the anime.

I knew the main characters were kids but sometimes I forget how young they were. Their abilities allow them to face either physical and psychologically challenges. To me, they are enough charismatic to stole my heart and wish them to achieve their freedom. I think that their youthness gave them the flexibility and imagination to propose and execute their plans. Their personalities are kinda memorable, you can remember the quiet guy who reads alone and is more like an observator, the energetic and passionate girl who even if it's naive can make people join her ideals and the calm and logic guy who tries to mantain a balance between his sentiments and beliefs. Even if they have the same age, their points of view and aknowledgements of the situations gave me reasons to emphatize of disagree with their actions. For sure, I think you will find with who are you most related with at the time to the story develops.

In general, if you are searching for a story with mistery, psychological and physical (just a little) battles and characters that will make you love them, hate them and questioning you about if moral principles (like survivance or the decision between life and death) are applicable and justificable depending of the situation. You should give Yakusoku no Neverland an opportunity.

I don't guarantee you it will be perfect but at least it will mantain you curiosity and theory formulation ability active as you discover this 'uncertain' world.

This series probably tops so many other series with its first arc. It is one of the best things I have seen coming out of Shonen Jump. Even after that, thought you see an apparent dip in quality, it was still good. If we were basing it off for most of the series, I would go for 8.5/10.

However, the ending was mediocre. The final confrontation was actually a great battle, but the consequences were not there. Given how somber and dark the series was, the author suddenly became too nice to his/her characters, making it quite mediocre.

The final chapter was the weakest for me. It had a good direction, but apparently the author decided to reverse it comppletely with the last few final panels. It ended very shounen like. People called this a fullmetal alchemist ending, but it really wasn't. Fullmetal saw two great consequences with two central characters, one forever losing sight, the other forever losing alchemy.

I think people will still enjoy the majority of the story. But I don't think I'll strongly recommend the story as I did previously.

The first start of this series is amazing, it's a very tense thriller, and you're scared to see if it's even possible to escape from the grace field house, I would say that the writing is top notch and keeps you on your toes. Of course the kids do escape and then what?

They must survive, the whole thriller aspect of the series is lost and that's what turned people off but what else could they do? There are demons out there trying to kill them and you must defend yourself. They aren't sheltered like in the grace-field arc. The ending left me satisfied since I really loved the characters. The whole point of this story is your family and that was in the first arc as well since Emma wanted to escape with everyone.

People can say that it was rushed after the grace-field arc but I don't believe it. When Norman got shipped out, it didn't even show him getting eaten, and left us at a cliff hanger. Why would the series end right there? The new mature tone suits the "kill or be killed" world they have been in. William Minerva effortlessly sunk in the story well, and still including it after they escaped. The writing is consistent and I like that. This review is getting kinda long but I would say that I really enjoyed the series. Of course I have minor complaints, but their goal was fulfilled and it feels good.

the manga have some good points : if u want to read manga with new ideas and don't spend ur entire life w8ing for its end i think this manga will be good options , the end is not legendary but it's good end , maybe some event at the end of manga aren't so good but even if we say they r 10 chapter out of 180 it is good manga too

i like the idea about making series with 150-300 chapter and had good end
the end was not so great but it's so good compared with another manga that had disappointed end like Beelzbub or bleach or Vagabond
on the another hand u had that endless manga is really boring for me
many kids have that idea "oh no i love that manga i don't want it to end forever" or "why he kill that character everyone should live to the end " will have bad thought about it
the only problem is that manga try to be Shounen and Seinen at the same time which give it more readers but with less points
