The Promised Neverland

[Mr. Reloaded]

So I finally caught back up.

Honestly not as invested in this arc as I thought I'd be. But I think part of that is due to
A) fatigue and
B) lack of discussion for Neverland in general on the internet

But at least these kids are starting to die and their deaths aren't being dragged out.

Looks like an anime is finally happening!

I guess season 1 will have to cover the escape from the orphanage. I can see the mainstream really catching on to this one.

As for the recent manga developments, I really need Ray and No Name to show up. I find it hard to really care about the characters introduced in this arc beyond Lucas. Even him though I only care about due to his relation to No Name.

 

[FlorgesPower2]

I can see the mainstream really catching on to this one.

I hope so. If an anime adaption can do what did for My Hero, Neverland should at least get half of that exposure.

It really is a bummer we past the half way point awhile ago.

Welp, the manga has an important announcement on May 28. I bet you know what that means.

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

From YonkouProductions.

The Promised Neverland TV Anime airs January 2019.

"The series will air on Fuji TV's Noitamina block. (They typically air 1 cour series)

A PV featuring the seiyuu for The Promised Neverland will debut when the website goes live Monday."

 

[FlorgesPower2]

2019?! God damn. Although I guess that's to be expected.

I hope we can get a simuldub too (though it's probably not going to Funi, so probably not).

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

From the anime.

Neverland also got quite a bit of color pages, the magazine cover, the actual color spread, a colored illustration of this arc.

This might turn into a big deal.

Spoiler: Color spread

Spoiler: Jump Cover

 

[FlorgesPower2]

Oooooh.

So they're keeping the original art style? Or at least something similar. That's neat.

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

Moment of silence for Emma.

The protagonist who couldn't.

 

[Darthlord7]

And we finally learned the name of the Nameless Man.

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

Finally caught back up, again.

They had my attention with the Andrew and Phil tease, only to get cockteased into dope looking dragons and visions.

I love me some dragons, but that was dirty.

 

[Darthlord7]

It has been confirmed that the new arc is going to be he last one. We also got an almost two year timeskip.

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

Not surprised.

They did say we hit the halfway point months ago, and Neverland (especially towards the later half) really felt draggy and like it wasn't going to last much longer.

 

[FlorgesPower2]

Better to go out the hero, then end up the next Bleach.

It had a great run, something like Red Sprite would have loved to have the run Neverland did.

Post timeskip designs.

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

R.I.P the two guys who's names i'm not even sure were ever given, but I'm loving this! Actual stakes and deaths are happening, these guys are good.

 

[FlorgesPower2]

Andrew is not f****** around, and I love it!

 

[Darthlord7]

Goddammit, that ending. One of the most meaningful sacrifices ever.

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

5 days old, but it just popped up in my recommendations.

 

[Darthlord7]

That premiere was pretty solid. Great first episode with beautiful visuals and astonishing soundtrack throughout the episode and they nailed the twist as well.
