2. The Promised Neverland
Ask anyone who has been keeping up with shonen manga about The Promised Neverland and there’s a good chance they’ll talk your ear off about how long they’ve been looking forward to its anime adaptation.
Set in a world where humans are secretly farmed as food for demons, the plot focuses on Emma, Ray and Norman, three genius children who uncover their twisted fate through chance.
Unwilling to accept their deaths, they begin to plot their escape from the facility where they were raised, all the while outwitting the adults in charge of cultivating them for their eventual slaughter.
Equal parts Hunter X Hunter and Death Note, The Promised Neverland has more brains and creativity than a lot of other anime out there. It’ll be readily available on Crunchyroll starting Jan. 11, 2019 too, making it that much easier to give it a look.
