That’s when the ugly truth becomes even uglier when they notice demons wandering about. Norman and Emma take cover as they hear voices and don’t want to get caught. The only thing of interest is a truck that they assume will be bringing Conny to her new home.Įmma gets the idea to leave the bunny in the back of the truck and that’s when they discover the grim reality that is Conny’s corpse with a small plant growing out of it. When they get there, there’s no sign of Conny anywhere. Not wanting her to go to her new home empty-handed, Emma and Norman break the rules and go to the gate in order to give the bunny back to Conny.

Conny always had a stuffed rabbit with her and on the day she was shipped out, she forgot to take it with her. However, one of their youngest friends, Conny, was placed before them. They are the oldest out of everyone at the orphanage and since everyone is placed in a foster home by age 12, being 11, they are due to be placed very soon.

Volume 1 introduces us to our three main characters: Emma, Normal, and Ray.

The only rules are don’t go to the gate and don’t go beyond the fence in the forest as it is for their own protection. They live normal lives, get fed every day, take tests as part of their education, and are allowed outside to play. The Promised Neverland (Yakusoku no Neverland) is a story about orphans growing up together in a house and taken care of by a mother named Isabella. Good food, clean clothes and the perfect environment to learn-what more could an orphan ask for? One day, though, Emma and Norman uncover the dark truth of the outside world they are forbidden from seeing. And under the care of the woman they refer to as “Mom,” all the kids have enjoyed a comfortable life. Emma, Norman and Ray are the brightest kids at the Grace Field House orphanage.
