The book is packed to the brim with content, moving at a brisk pace that keeps it from being boring.
It does an absolutely excellent job at laying out the premise, the plot focus, the setup, the antagonists, establishing the stakes at play, how difficult it will be for our heroes to achieve their goal, and the eerie tone in less than 200 pages. The first volume of The Promised Neverland is about pitch perfect when it comes to story and plot. But even looking at this from the perspective of a newcomer to this series, it still holds up well and will suck you in, making you want what’ll happen next. Knowing everything I know now, I can pick up on all the little subtle hints and foreshadowing going on, seeing more of the genius in the series. However, going all the way back to the very first few chapters again has been great.
#The promised neverland manga vol 1 series#
I’ve been reading this series since it first debuted back in Viz’s Weekly Shonen Jump in August of 2016 and it’s been one hell of a ride. Good food, clean clothes and the perfect environment to learn–what more could an orphan ask for? One day, though, Emma and Norman uncover the dark truth of the outside world they are forbidden from seeing.
And under the care of the woman they refer to as “Mom,” all the kids have enjoyed a comfortable life. Emma, Norman and Ray are the brightest kids at the Grace Field House orphanage.
