Anime

The Promised Neverland was a horror, dark fantasy thriller which, across the course of two seasons, followed the story of 38 children raised in an orphanage surrounded by dense forestry and high walls. Although the series started off on a joyous and carefree note, this mood quickly took a turn for the worse before the end of the very first episode. Unfortunately, the quality of the anime mimicked a parallel decline after the end of the first season, culminating in an ending so disastrously unfaithful to the overarching story that it has gone down as one of the worst anime adaptations of all time- worthy of first place on our "Top 5 anime with Wasted Potential" list, had it ended sooner. 

In this exclusive two part review, we'll take you though a detailed walk of the plot of the anime and explain just how an anime with such a masterfully choreographed first season could go so bad, so fast.
