Yakusoku no Neverland 2nd Season

I debated whether it was even worth writing a review for the sham that is Yakuneba season 2 for about an hour or so before deciding that after all the time, energy and think pieces I’ve given this series, I should write one. Let me be clear, season 2 of Yakuneba, or TPN, whatever you prefer, is the biggest disappointment I’ve ever seen in all my years of watching anime. Those familiar with the manga will know that the content after season 2 has an astronomical drop in quality, but season 2’s material was the best in the series. Yet, for some unknown reason, Cloverworksand the author decided to rewrite the story and condense the entire second half of the manga into 11 episodes and remove one of the best characters in the series. Why? There’s been rumours that the author didn’t like the pacing of Goldy Pond(the arc that should have been adapted this season) and decided to rework things. Out of all the things that went wrong in the second half of the manga, Goldy Pond was not one of them. Now that I’ve got my manga reader tirade out of the way, I’ll explain just how atrocious this season was. “Well, I didn’t read the manga, so I might like it still, right?” No. Even if you were fortunate enough to not read the final half of Yakuneba’s manga, you will still find plenty of faults with this season. For one, the pacing is comically bad. Conflicts are set up and resolved in the span of a few minutes, often with huge leaps in logic. For two, the kids are often put into situations for which they have no training or previous experience and yet able to magically work their way out of with no casualties or so much as a scratch. For three, none of the mystery and tension that the first season or first half of the manga had are present. There’s never a need to fear for anything because you know Emma will talk no jutsu her way out of things. This season is just bad, not just because it butchered a fan favourite arc or cut out a fan favourite character and moments. It’s bad because it’s poorly written, poorly directed and a shadow of the former glory of TPN. Honestly, I thought it would be hard to get worse than the manga, but Cloverworks succeeded here on that front. If you want a somewhat mediocre conclusion to the story, check that out, but even then don’t expect much. Yakuneba S2 gets 2 dumpster fires out of 10.

The Promised Neverland was one of the best anime of 2019. In 2021 the highly anticipated second season was finally released, but it was a big disappointment for me. So where did it go wrong? Was it because they choose to not follow the source material? Was it because they rushed the whole story in 11 episodes? Probably both of them were the reason. I didn't read the manga, so I don't actually know if the manga is better or not. If felt like they wrote the key points of the story couldn't connect them. Conflicts are set up and resolved in the span of afew minutes, often with huge leaps in logic. For two, the kids are often put into situations for which they have no knowledge or experience and yet magically work their way out without a scratch. They threw away the character traits and relied on plot armor to make up for their bad writing. They never tried to give a logical explanation behind the events that take place. It felt things are just happening for the sake of plot progression. The animation and sound were pretty decent. The story concept was good, but they couldn't express it properly.

In all honesty, I can not understand why people will hurt such a great anime on purpose. I think that some things could have been better, but it doesn't mean it deserved at 5 mark. Please guys, minimum a seven. Art and sound are good. Animation also on point. The new characters add depth to the story. I believe that we two or 3 more episodes the story could have been showed better. The story was great. I enjoyed the show and the outrigger song is so good.In all honesty, I can not understand why people will hurt such a great anime on purpose.
