Synopsis

Emma, Ray, and the rest of the older children have escaped the confines of the Grace Field House. However, with relentless demons set on capturing them, their arduous battle for freedom has only just begun.

Despite venturing into the treacherous wilderness, the children remain optimistic due to their possession of books written by William Minerva. Coded within his books are messages detailing the world outside the farm—information that can help them survive with the limited resources they have. But when their pursuers draw near, the children soon encounter their most dreadful situation yet.

In Yakusoku no Neverland 2nd Season, the children struggle to survive in the strange ruthless world, striving to find a sanctuary they can truly call home.

Hear me out❤️,I don't care what anyone thinks about this season but I enjoyed it and in fact I thought it was amazing, most people who were mad are the ones who read the manga, as a person who didn't, I can say that I absolutely enjoyed every episode of this season.

Animation 9/10
Music 10/10
Story 9/10
Voice acting 10/10
Pacing 7/10

Say whatever you want but this season was goated and a great continuation to the story.

Mixed Feelings

The Promised Neverland was one of the best anime of 2019. In 2021 the highly anticipated second season was finally released, but it was a big disappointment for me.

So where did it go wrong? Was it because they choose to not follow the source material? Was it because they rushed the whole story in 11 episodes? Probably both of them were the reason. I didn't read the manga, so I don't actually know if the manga is better or not. If felt like they wrote the key points of the story couldn't connect them. Conflicts are set up and resolved in the span of a ...

Not Recommended

A butchered adaptation, neglecting to include fan favorite characters from the manga and removing entire arcs, complete and utter disregard of the great tone and atmosphere that was so carefully crafted in the first season, and rushing a once engaging story to high hell to make it a sloppy mess.

This is horror. This is The Promised Neverland Season Two. And it's frickin brilliant.

Now you may be sitting in your comfy chair, mouth agape in shock, and asking yourself "Is this guy quite possibly insane?" Probably. But I also had a revelation to something that you don't know...yet. But that's ok. I'm here to enlighten ... you dear reader. I came to realize that this season's apparent monumental failure was in fact done on PURPOSE. Yeah, I know it sounds unbelievable, but let me lift the veil from your eyes so you too can begin to appreciate this anime's efforts.

Let me ask you something. What is the primary genre of Promised Neverland? The one that enticed viewers to watch and kept them craving more? The one that propelled this series to the height of popularity? It's horror. THAT is the driving appeal of this series. The first season did an excellent job with this. I'm sure you don't need me to reiterate the solid pacing, timing, character growth, conflict, and more. But most importantly, it was a faithful adaptation to the source material.

Now imaging destroying all of that.
The once well defined and centralized plot has become convoluted, characters have become one dimensional, and the solid build up has just completely evaporated among other things. But also...taking an anime original approach!? Gasp! Now this is what I call true horror!

There's only so far you can go when trying to instill fear into viewers through animation. Studio Cloverworks clearly knew that they had to take things to the next level, so instead of providing some exterior unnerving content like they did with the first season, they strike directly at the heart of fans by making them feel the utter despair of watching something they love turn into...this. Wow. Totally soul crushing. And absolutely genius!

And that's why this season is clearly a subversive masterpiece. Shows of this genre aim to break the viewer through deep and dark content. Yet Cloverworks found a way to effectively do this through an entirely different approach, and it clearly shows. Seriously, the overwhelming animosity towards this season by fans is almost as scary as this show's complete and utter implosion. I applaud them for their enlightened and forward thinking methods! But here's a warning. This only applies if you read and were a fan of the manga. Otherwise, it's just a incredibly lackluster sequel to a really good first season. Through watching, fans get to experience the purest, most rage inducing kind of horror there is.

The horror of a butchered adaptation.
