The Promised Neverland, Vol. 2 by Kaiu Shirai, Posuka Demizu
4.0

Promised Neverland sticks to it's over dramatic and "escape" feel, which is great.

So now that we have the plan to get out of the crazy house, we have to begin the steps to do it. The biggest step being that we have to figure out how to get all the kids out of the house. Emma decides to begin training the kids in a game of tag and this helps make the kids move at a better pace. At the same time the other maid is trying to hunt them down while pretending to play as well. Ray has a big moment as well here that comes off rather shocking.

The series is a lot of fun. Moving at a quick pace, with plenty of shocking moments. I think the best part about the story too is just when you think someone is smarter than the other, there's a new clue or moment. I think the only negative is the twist, the spy, is kind of obvious on appearance alone.

A game of cat and mouse continues as this series stays highly entertaining. A 4 out of 5.
