English is not my first language
The promised neverland 1st Season was very good, I really liked it when I saw it a few months ago, I would have liked to say the same thing about this 2nd Season but it's not posible.
The story starts well the first two episodes felt fresh and very organic, but from there everything goes downhill, from episode 3 or 4 (I don't remember exactly what it was) But all of a sudden it's like it all started to happen too fast, the 1st Season was characterized in my opinion by carrying a slow pace that allowed a very good development of the story, instead here everything happens, and it is that I felt that they were running a race to finish the work as soon as possible, which I do not understand since this work likes and sells quite well both in Japan and outside the country, that is the ideas that arise during the story are not at all bad, the problem is that the development of these has been lousy as it has been done too quickly, The ending partly I liked but... I would have liked to see Emma's adventures with Norman, Ray, etc... More in depth while the rest was in the human world... It wasn't a bad ending, but it felt kind of weird in my opinion.
The characters... I felt them somewhat flat, I didn't feel that they will actually evolve during the play, even with Norman and his group, which I really found lousy "evolution" that they had since from one moment to the next they went from hating demons to not wanting to kill them, does this have its justification? Yes, but it's too forced, it would have been nice if it took some time for them to assimilate the decision they've made... Emma and Ray I felt them quite flat I didn't feel like they changed at any time... And Don and Gilda in became in the shadows when they were characters with a lot of potential... Really this is the part that hurts the most since Emma and Gilda liked me a lot and the development they had this season I didn't like anything
The soundtrack and animation felt good, the opening seemed to me that it was up to the first season and the soundtrack although it recycles some tracks from the 1st Season I liked quite, as soon as the animation remained at the level of the 1st Season, there is not much more to comment on in these sections
The promised neverland 2nd Season I didn't like it, I feel like it's gone too fast just to get to the end of the story which hasn't been so much... The characters felt weird and flat and the music and animation more or less the same as the 1st Season, if it is true that the ideas he has regarding the story are good but are poorly developed... And personally I feel sorry for it since the 1st Season I really liked and the manga which I started recently as well, really this season disappointed me and frustrated me that I didn't reach the level of the 1st Season
