List of The Promised Neverland characters

This is a list of characters for the manga series The Promised Neverland.

The author, Kaiu Shirai wanted to create "upbeat and hopeful" characters to echo those heroes from Weekly Shōnen Jump's series. He stated that Emma is the epitome of the positive attitude, Norman is the mainstay of the group and Ray has an opposite and darker personality.^[1] Originally, Emma was a less decisive and active character, Norman had a "lighter" mood, and Ray was "more extreme", but Shirai and the series' editor, Suguru Sugita, decided to tweak the characters' traits and personalities, something that, according to Sugita, continued as the series progressed.^[2] Sugita thought that a female main character would not be popular enough to be serialized in a shōnen magazine and suggested Shirai to change the character setting, making a version where Emma was a boy, but it did not work out. Sugita later considered that since Studio Ghibli films, which features female protagonists and a male character that supports her, are widely popular across the world, they thought that having a female main character would not be a problem.^[2] According to Shirai, the choice of having Emma as the main character in the manga series, was mainly due that he was more interested in exploring a mother-daughter opposition rather than a mother-son opposition. He added that, as a girl, Emma has the choice to become a "Mom" or to try to run away, and to Shirai that was more interesting in terms of the storyline.^[3]

Shirai created a base of drawings with images and expressions of each character and the artist of the manga, Posuka Demizu, fine-tuned their features and attitudes.^[1] Demizu alternated two styles of drawing for children and demons. She enjoyed drawing both, as children reminded her of the period when she was doing illustrations and the demons came out of personal taste for "all that is fantastic and scary". Demizu has also designed monsters for video games.^[3] According to Shirai, they were about it very early to imagine the design of the demons and the new characters, to have time to think about it well and to not be rushed by the rhythm of weekly publication. Demizu, nevertheless, had the characters ready in one or two days, as Shirai mentioned as example that the design of Sonju's horse was conceived, produced and validated in one day. Shirai emphasized that he rarely had seen someone as fast and confident as Demizu.^[3]

Likewise, he was secretly working as a spy for his mother, Isabella. Not only that, but he had a deal with her as a collaborator, bringing to her the latest informations about the whole family. But he demanded a reward for each task he did, to prepare a strategy in the shadow. In fact, he does not like studying or reading that much, but he persevered in studying and reading in order to maximize his own worth, to be the special merchandise of the house. At first, he gives up on infants and insists that only the elders escape, but since Emma does not want to leave anyone behind, he was convinced and he cooperated.

He had a kind personality, agreeing with Emma's plan to escape with everyone, even though he thought it was close to impossible. Furthermore, he is the most rational among children and is also excellent at psychological bargaining. Suddenly, it was decided that he would be shipped from the orphanage before his 12th birthday. Emma and the others thought he had died, but when Norman was shipped, Peter Ratri appeared as his foster parent, and was sent to a new plantation called Lambda Λ7214 to be eaten by the queen.

Isabella (イザベラ, Izabera)

Voiced by: Yūko Kaida^[7] (Japanese); Laura Post^[5] (English)

Portrayed by: Keiko Kitagawa^[8]

Known to the orphanage's children as their "Mom", Isabella is a 31-year-old woman who takes care of everyone there. She has fair-skin, purple eyes, and long dark brown hair tied into a low bun. Isabella was born and raised at Grace Field House where she lived a happy life until her crush, Leslie, was shipped out, which brought her intense grief. Shortly after Leslie's departure, Isabella discovered that something was wrong with the orphanage when she tried to run away, and found that her 'orphanage' was bordered by a cliff that surrounded it as far as she could see . Her 'mom', Sarah, convinced her that escaping was impossible and that the best life she could strive for was becoming a 'mom' to other children at the orphanage. When Isabella was shipped out at the age of 12, she was presumably told the entire truth and began her training to become a 'mom' at Grace Field Headquarters and was eventually put in charge of Plant 3. While appearing extremely loving and affectionate to the children, she is actually very manipulative, cunning, and seems, at first glance, totally detached to their tragic fate. Later it is revealed that she is Ray's biological mother, and, because of thinking that escape is impossible, she tries to give all the children the happiest life possible before they are shipped out. She is kept alive after the children's escape due to her massive skills and brainpower and offered the position of Grandma, with the former having been blamed for the escape instead. She takes the position, but only in order to help the children when they inevitably come back to rescue their younger siblings.

While Krone's current position provides her a good life, she yearns to usurp her position and become the next 'Mom' of Grace Field House. Like Isabella, she was born and raised at Grace Field House, and is extremely cunning, manipulative on the inside, while harboring an affectionate and warm exterior. Krone's sole difference from Isabella is her intense aggression, which matches her large and intimidating physique. Originally intending to cause a scandal by helping the children escape and framing Isabella, she leaks information to Norman and Emma on several occasions, but is ultimately killed by Isabella and 'Grandma', who were in cahoots the whole time. Before she died, she left Norman a Promised Pen from an ally named William Minerva as a show of her last struggle against death.

Nearly a thousand years ago, he was a leader of an unknown country who was caught up in a war between the humans and demons. At some point, he met five other human leaders on the battlefield, including Julius Ratri, and they all became trusted companions, putting aside nations and races to fight together. One night after a whole day of fighting with countless casualties, the six leaders discussed about how to end the war. Julius proposed to the idea about offering up a portion of humans to the demons, but the man and the other four leaders were against this, deeming that it was possible to end the war without any human getting eaten. A few days later, Julius once again brought up his previous proposal and wanted his allies to reconsider it, sick and tired of continuously having to sacrifice people. His allies refused once again. Julius, however, betrayed them, and brought several demons to their hideouts, revealing that he had already made a deal with "Him" which became known as "The Promise". He was a man with a rather tall stature and large build. He had short, orange and messy hair, sticking up at all angles around his head. He also had a small goatee and large, light-colored eyes.
