Well, this is the end of one of my favorite mangas... what should I say?
If you give it a chance you may got yourself into a story about:
- A charismatic, funny and eloquent "calamity" god in sweatpants who gave his best to be remembered by people and protect what he loved the most.
- An energetic, empathic and perceptive girl whose life completely changed the day she "saved" a sweatpants guy.
- A youthful, kinda rebel but good boy spirit whose personal development was stunning.
These three main characters bond made me laugh, worry, and almost cry through the story. I'm thankful to experience it and ... invite you to experience it too.

In general, I consider this great manga will fulfill elements like:
- Memorable characters. Most of the characters, not only the main, were awesome. The way their past stories are revealed to understand why they are the way they are help me to connect with them. I'm aware that not for all the characters their actions are justificable but at the end the deity and human mix of elements made the story work with this flexibility and change of morals and variety of personalities.
- Interesting story. If you like supernatural elements and/or japanese folklore I think you may enjoy this story. Especially this story propose that deities can "adopt" spirits in order to gave them a second chance. For sure, this "second chance" will depend on the deity because them theirselves have their own concepts of good and evil. Though the story we accompany the deities to discover "human concepts" and also realize the fickleness of humanity as well as they reconsider their own actions and way of thinking.
- Amazing art. The art in each panel is enjoyable, the way the personality of each character is designed and expressed is great. Also, facial and body expressions are cool. Especially when they gave us battle panels and detailed equipment associated to the shinkis.

For sure I would recommend people to gave it a chance. ;)

What will you do if someday you realize one of the persons you love the most is the responsible of the deaths of your be loved family?

I'll be sincere, I first discovered the anime, the first episode was enough to rise my curiosity about the plot. I watched the anime in one day and because I couldn't wait for the second season, as soon as I finished it I decided to read the manga. I reached the serialization chapter and followed the final arcs each week. I enjoyed a lot each plot twist, suffered ... the deaths and also in general I obtained a bittersweet sentiment as the manga finished. Now, even if I already know the story I will patiently wait to the second season of the anime.

I knew the main characters were kids but sometimes I forget how young they were. Their abilities allow them to face either physical and psychologically challenges. To me, they are enough charismatic to stole my heart and wish them to achieve their freedom. I think that their youthness gave them the flexibility and imagination to propose and execute their plans. Their personalities are kinda memorable, you can remember the quiet guy who reads alone and is more like an observator, the energetic and passionate girl who even if it's naive can make people join her ideals and the calm and logic guy who tries to mantain a balance between his sentiments and beliefs. Even if they have the same age, their points of view and aknowledgements of the situations gave me reasons to emphatize of disagree with their actions. For sure, I think you will find with who are you most related with at the time to the story develops.

In general, if you are searching for a story with mistery, psychological and physical (just a little) battles and characters that will make you love them, hate them and questioning you about if moral principles (like survivance or the decision between life and death) are applicable and justificable depending of the situation. You should give Yakusoku no Neverland an opportunity.

I don't guarantee you it will be perfect but at least it will mantain you curiosity and theory formulation ability active as you discover this 'uncertain' world.
