Also the real monster is still clearly the Demons. There are just humans working with them.

Although the mysterious "other promise" that Emma plans to use as leverage with ISM2 is an potential setup for a twist about humans being just as bad as demons, if the author wants to go there.

Studio for the anime is finally confirmed as cloverworks despite weeks of people denying it for some reason.

Another new chapter. https://readneverland.com/chapter/the-promised-neverland-chapter-99/ Looks like the group for the next arc will be Emma, Ray, Don, Gilda, Violet and Zack.

Also confirms that the Human World in Promised Neverland is our world, more or less - at the very least, the Roman Empire existed.

Not a fan of the elements being introduced here. Up to this point even the demons seemed to be biological creatures with limits, but now there's time travel and vague mystical stuff.

Until now what *squiggles* is was up for debate, it still is but the possibilities are narrowed somewhat. Squiggles could have just been the progenitor of all demons, their ancient ruler still alive, their current monarch, or other plausible non-magical explanations, given that we weren't given a reason to believe that magic exists in Neverland, and everything we have seen until now is technology and biotech. What I do find interesting is that the Grace Field head demon appears in the vision. Rigged Death Trap fucked around with this message at 00:41 on Sep 5, 2018 |

I don't know, I feel like there's no real chance this was ever going to end without some kind of supernatural angle considering everything else that's gone on so far, and there's no real reason to immediately assume the worst just because it hasn't been a factor up until now.

The story is centered around the concept of parallel worlds we were already in full magic town

I too was hoping the series with bloodsucking roses, genius four year olds, and giant demons with insane bodies that can regenerate and live for thousands of years would stay grounded in reality.

Its Magical Magic vs Magical Physics. Personally I dont mind, as long it stays internally consistent. This is a story based around mind games as a tool for survival and magic has the potential to kill that internal consistency. Not a very good analogy but: its like a detective story suddenly having the villain display mind altering powers. It changes your expectations for the story.

Like literally Parallel Worlds has been a thing in this series for a good long while. If you didn't think the clues given early weren't indicating the kids heading to another world I don't know what to tell you.

Could have easily been some kind of hollow world. And fancifully written legends turning out to be truth filtered through a lens of superstition or deliberate obfuscation are absolutely my poo poo so I wanted that to happen. But theres a literal dragon and a literal place where day and night meet and a god ill be disappointed when the seven walls are literally just seven walls. Not saying its makes the manga worse, but an explicitly saying 'magic exists' wasnt where I thought it was going.

There's not really a difference between magic and magical physics, but just saying that is slightly unfair because there is a difference between fictional powers or phenomena that follow established rules or resemble real things closely enough that you can predict what they do, and those that don't. It's like the difference between a gun and a wizard's staff; you have a frame of reference for what a gun does, so it makes no difference if it shoots bullets or lasers, and even completely bizarre or abstract concept like a gun that shoots happiness at people (shout-outs to Larry Niven) can be accepted because the bizarre thing is just one variable of what is otherwise a familiar concept. Conversely, a wizard's staff could do anything.

the flip side of this of course is that reality is not the only source of predictability (genre conventions are nearly as good, or specific references to another work of fiction, or ground rules established ahead of time, or...) and that the predictable rules that something follows don't have to be rules of physics -- it's just as legitimate to tell a story that operates on purely emotional logic, for instance

Futaba Anzu posted:im dense, someone explain the clues towards parallel worlds to me because i can get how that's what's going on The Demon world and Human world are implied to be different dimensions, what with pathways between them and one being right at Gracefield. It was one of the first big twists when they found out the demons didn't invade Earth, but they are cattle in the Demon world.

Cipher Pol 9 posted:I can understand to an extent being upset about the god-figure appearing before Emma in another dimension, that was pretty wild, but why is a dragon bad? There was a forest full of giant horrifying demons of all shapes and sizes, why is a dragon-demon weirder? Purely a dragon is even fine. Earth mythos has dragons all over the place no matter the setting rules magic/weird science, since there are demons why not real dragons.

There was a forest full of giant horrifying demons of all shapes and sizes, why is a dragon-demon weirder? Its not because its a dragon. Its because what I previously thought was deliberately obfuscated hints from minervas book has now included a literal description. Nittiest of picks but since this manga is good and has been consistent in that since the beginning thats all thats left to critique, the small plot contrivances like Ray's perfect baby memory.

A final arc could easily mean another hundred chapters so I'm not preparing for the end quite yet.
