| Waait... I didn't expect them to deviate from the manga wtf I kept waiting for -that- character to appear ;-; whyyyy it was something I was really looking forward to!! |
| "Your freedom won't be the only reward" Maybe she gets Ray as well? Those ratings though - guess they are from those who have read the manga. I haven't read it so I can't really compare it to the source material, so for me it's fine. |

| I guess I totally lost interest in the manga long ago because even after those changes in the anime I don't feel any disappointment at all. Now I see the anime as an original but not a manga adaptation. And I'm not gonna lie, I felt those SoL scenes were so out of place that I was waiting for something bad to happen everytime and it kept me curious and kind of afraid or thrilled or I don't know the correct word for that. I think it's one those "it's so bad it's good" time xD I guess I'm the only one like that. |

| .......... I was very hype for this season .... I have been waiting for a long time to see my favorite character in this anime ... I was waiting to see the best arc (goldy pond) in the anime... I can only say that I am disappointed ... 2/5 |

Dukino said: Y'all are ridiculous. Trashing the anime cause its not following your precious manga to the letter. So pathetic whining I swear. Just go read the manga and gtfo if you have such a big issue with it. This is dumb all the complaining. Is it so hard to be excited about what could possibly come from the manga author getting to rework their OWN STORY? its their work let them do with it what they will Exactly this... like, just leave then, for real! |

| So far this season has been very disappointing.... Why did they decide such trivial things instead showing the important parts of the manga? 1/5 for this episode. Damn, these kids have too much plot armor.... |

| Uh... ok, well, all that happened.... way too quickly. Pacing felt all over the place, which seems to be a thing for this season... Thanks Isabella for being the highlight of the episode |

 "In the past few months since we met, I've shared many memories with Nagato. Though I've also shared memories with Haruhi, Asahina-san and Koizumi, I found that I've experienced more events with Nagato in particular. In fact, every situation seems to involve her. I might as well mention this, she's probably the only person to cause the bell within me to shake the most vigorously..." ~ Kyon, TMOSH |
| Isabella is back! Damn, I'm even more curious about the next episode |

I'm an anime only and even to me this ep made no sense... Emma letting the kids taste the fish for poison? It makes sense lol. Help mensage on the wall, I loved the explanation on that one too... A big ass demon that only eats armored humans? hmm pretty good too... And worst of all, after all that happened on season 1 al the kids seem to get dumber |
| Oh well well WELL, the anime has truly diverted from the manga. No worries for me though since I'm an anime-only, but I can definitely feel the manga readers that are crying and raging right now. So the kids did experience safety in the shelter and they manage to enjoy those slimy fish that they caught. But whoever left some breadcrumbs while they're journeying to the shelter must have really fucked the whole group up. As they're now being captured by some human soldiers working for the demons. If it wasn't for the CG Monster, they would have been rounded up by now. And just like that, they are running from the darkness called death. Also we got to see Isabella again, depressed and pretty much lost her dignity. But before she takes the red sucking flower, the Grandma gave her another chance. To capture the children and "another promise", she is back in her senses and Isabella will be cool again! So far, I kinda like where this anime is going on. I repeat that I didn't read the manga, so my opinion on the manga cut will be unfounded since I didn't experience it for myself. |

| It's really interesting to see that the anime has diverted from the manga now, going by what the manga readers are saying in this thread, since I'm an anime-only. I think future episode discussions like this one will be a warzone of anger and salt now. The pacing was pretty quick for this episode, though. Although the kids got used to living in the shelter after finding out from the phone call about William Minerva's true identity the plans, it was all short-lived as a team of human soldiers stormed the place and went after them. They were all caught, but the CGI monster makes a return to flip everything on its head again, which gave the whole kids a chance to escape. Where they'll go from here, who knows, as no place can be called safe for them right now. Meanwhile, we get to see Isabella again, but it seems that she'll be given a second chance to get all of the kids back in her care again. Whether she means what she says or she has another goal in mind, who knows. Either that, or I'm assuming too much. XD I did enjoy this episode, although knowing that the anime has diverted a lot from the manga does worry me a bit, but not too much right now. |
| excuse me but what the fuck? did they just skip a whole arc? goldy pond arc was one of my favorites, i loved the characters of yuugo and lukas (who you anime-only peeps will now probably not get to see now) :( i really hope they at least get to goldy pond, but this is really disappointing at the same time, the manga ending was really lackluster to me and the series went downhill from a 10 to a 6-7ish for me in the last two arcs, so maybe this anime-only plot will (hopefully) have a more satisfying ending. i just hope they don't skip over too much... |
| So far this season hasn't had the same appeal to me as the first. Most of the twists are predictable and the story pacing feels way off. As for this episode, there wasn't much of anything that happened. It was interesting to know a little for about Minerva and the state Isabelle is in. However, that's about it, the rest it felt like a slice of life episode with survival elements. |
WTH?! They're just starting to have a good life and they're on the run again! Too unfortunate. |
Marinate1016 said: Yea, somehow they’ve managed to make shit even worse with these manga changes. This and Goldy pond were the best parts of the manga. There was no need to cut out Yuugo and change this arc. Now granted they could rearrange appearances and bring him in later, but.. I doubt it’ll pan out well. As someone who was constantly talking to people in the manga discussion threads week after week about how far the series fell, I was at least expecting season 2 to retain some of that original magic.. I’ll give them a chance, but it’s not looking likely. Shame. I’m pissed man. This used to be one of my fave series. Goldy Pond Arc was the best plot period. Now I'm afraid we can't see the best character of the show, our only Count Lewis in all his glory. So its gonna be just Isabella vs the children eh? Not even aww. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| This episode was so dumb... So jumping straight to Cuvitidala without any development? Also, some anime-onlies are extremely dense. Manga readers are not being nit-picky, we don't have petty criticism, we're not mad because the anime is not following the manga frame by frame... WE'RE MAD CAUSE THEY SKIPPED OVER 50+ CHAPTERS WITH AN ARC AND CHARACTERS THAT ARE CONSIDERED A FAN-FAVORITES. What aren't you getting about that?? We're mad because we never even considered we won't be seeing Goldy Pond/Mister animated because... IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. It will be like not adapting Steel Ball Run, which is regarded as "the favorite JoJo part". No Gyro, no Johnny, no Valentine... which are among fan-favorites. It's doesn't make sense. |
 |
| Oh boy, that was something. I'll stick around to see where it goes from here (my expectations are low). |
| So it's totally a new path for the story, well why not, but it seems like the story is a bit rushed to be honest |
 |
| My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined |
| can't believe they cut out and . nice to see Isabella back though. hope the anime doesn't change much more from the manga than it already has. |
 |
| the episode feels somewhat rushed... idk why the kids could kill with arrows but the soldiers with guns are useless... anyway, since the anime is going anime original, i am curious about how it will go. i hope the anime ending doesn't end up going the same route as the manga with the only big changes being removing goldy pond, its characters, and seven walls... |

Kamel_ said: EXCALIBUR_843 said: I'm an anime-only and I honestly don't get this hate, even if the anime decides to completely exclude this Yuugo character but still manages to present us with a different and gripping storyline than the manga one till the end, is there a problem with that?? The problem is: they excluded 2 great arcs of the manga. It is really hard to think somehow they will make something better out of this, in this rushed pace that the anime is going. Oh, I see! Fingers crossed then, all we can do as of now is to hope for the best from this anime-original story :) |

Kumo- said: Im confused, everybody complained about the manga being trash. Now that the anime is going a different direction people are complaining again? Just stfu stupid manga readers you dont know what you want apparently You should read the manga or atleast be informed about manga readers' opinions on what they considered good and where it went bad. Just read the forum posts if you wish to know why. |
 |
| So... what's the point of making filler episodes when the manga is complete? I know that the series is long (taking the manga, it would need at least another 12 ep season to finish it all), but going this way to disappoint the fans? Seriously? Like, really? |
 |
| I haven't read the manga but i can tell regardless without that knowledge that this is a step down from season 1. |
| Lie until what you want to be true becomes truth. Lie until you can't remember what's a lie and what isn't. Lie until you aren't lying anymore! Figures  |
| Where is Yuugo ;-; he was so cool and now apparently he's not gonna show up??? I'm so lost watching this episode. I just wonder where the rest of The Promised Neverland is gonna go. I'm scared that it won't play out as nice as the manga |
