The Promised Neverland

After Meinuo reads a manga called About Dreams, she falls deeply in love with a character named Isabella.

This clever, beautiful woman meets such a tragic end.

Meinuo silently makes a wish: if she could change Isabella’s ending, she would be willing to pay any price.

The gods hear her wish.

When Meinuo wakes up, she finds that she has transmigrated into the manga, right into the orphanage where the story begins with a “cure”!

She is completely dumbfounded.

How is she supposed to survive in this world where demons eat people?!

Just as Meinuo is overwhelmed with worry, she sees the Isabella she has dreamed about day and night. The real, living Isabella.

The moment she sees Isabella’s gentle smile, Meinuo secretly makes up her mind.

She will save Isabella and change her ending.

For that, she is willing to pay any price.

She will make sure Isabella lives longer than anyone else.

Isabella has always thought herself burdened with terrible sins.

She cannot forgive herself, but neither can she easily give up her life.

Even with a troubled conscience, she must selfishly keep on living.

But when she feels Meinuo’s love for her, she feels unworthy of such wholehearted devotion from a woman.

She intends to put on a cold front and make Meinuo give up.

But before she can even do so, Meinuo keeps retreating farther and farther away.

Even a single word from her makes Meinuo impatiently tell her to keep her distance.

When Isabella takes one step toward her, Meinuo frowns and steps back, looking as if she’s been clung to by something filthy.

Isabella: ?

If Meinuo hadn’t stood by her bed all night that one evening, her loving kiss only an inch from Isabella’s lips but held back from landing,

whispering “I love you” in her ear again and again,

Isabella might have believed Meinuo’s apparent distaste and impatience.

Spurred by curiosity, Isabella gradually draws closer to Meinuo, until the moment they are closer than close.

That is when she suddenly realizes Meinuo never intended to leave the world of demons alive.

At that moment, she also realizes that she has fallen in love with Meinuo without even noticing, and can no longer turn back.

Love intoxicates, and it can drive people mad.

The madness Isabella has kept buried deep inside is awakened by Meinuo’s deliberate distance.

When the children come to attack the demons’ stronghold, Isabella removes the bomb from Meinuo and strips off her clothes.

She makes her say “I love you” over and over.

From that moment on, Isabella’s obsession with surviving alone turns into a determination to survive with Meinuo.

To live together forever on that dream island made real.

Reader’s Guide:

1. The heroine has a golden finger, but it isn’t all-powerful.

2. Isabella’s characterization is close to the manga, but her death came far too suddenly later on. Without affecting her original characterization, I’ve added a little of my own personal taste. She still knows the story and has her wits about her.

3. There’s some angst, but not much. It’s still sweet later on.

4. The story follows the manga’s plotline, but not its actual plot.

5. They take turns taking the lead, though Isabella is more proactive.
