I wished they included the two thoughts made by Isabella and Emma in this finale.
First was Isabella wishing she could have loved them as a real mother. Second was Emma's monologue saying something like they have no food, no home but they're with each other. |

So I was wrong for once (or twice, or etc) about them taking the small children. Coming back to rescue all the children within two years is still a preposterously hard task, but shonen is all about going beyond the limits.
Very good series indeed start to finish. |

I did get bored so I stopped watching. My beef with this series is the uneven pace. It started with a bang but then it was taking sweet time crawling then at near end rushed at super sonic speed. Overall, ep 1 was really good. After that, not so much. Oh well, there is no solid series this season.

Best shounen I've seen since Fullmetal Alchemist. Hopefully it holds up better than Death Note did in the long run. But it's problems for the long run were already evident early. Neverland has more potential, characters and content to roll with.

Finally got around watching the rest of the season, Jesus, I took way too long, lol.
What I liked the most about this series was that there were no "inner thoughts" we could hear, you know, the thought bubbles from the manga. Instead the anime worked with the images, expressions and music to create the same thoughts like in the manga without spelling them out, I liked that. Same with the little changes like Krone's doll going from perfectly unharmed as a child to nearly broken to pieces as an adult, her fight against the demon while the kids ate, to Isabella meeting Emma on the wall, it all fit well into the anime's story-telling. Glad it got a 2nd season, can't wait for it to air in 2020.^^
