Volume 15

Welcome to the Entrance ("入口"へようこそ) is the fifteenth volume of The Promised Neverland manga series.

Synopsis
As Norman and his group prepare their plan to eradicate all of the demons, Emma searches for her own path. Can she find a way to create a new promise that achieves peace without resorting to violence?

Plot
Volume fifteen of The Promised Neverland unveils what Norman’s plan was which was eluded to in the previous volume’s cliffhanger. After carrying out his plan, he knew deep down it was all a façade on the surface as he is well aware of a certain someone’s true intentions. Being the mastermind that he is, Norman is looking to come out on top regardless of knowing the situation. When Norman returns, he is confronted by Emma and Ray who want to talk to him about Mujika and Sonju. News of their existence seemed to rattle Norman to his very core. It was a factor in his plan that he didn’t consider and now that he knows that factor, he comes to a decision where he wants to kill the two of them. Of course, with Emma being the girl who wants to save everyone, she rejects Norman’s plan and says that she and Ray will go to the Seven Doors and make a new promise. Norman says he is not changing his plans and that if she wants to do that, then she can but she has to do it and come back before Norman carries his plans out.

While Emma and Ray head off to the Seven Doors, we switch gears and are taken within the five houses of the Aristocrats as well as get introduced to the Queen. The Tifari is coming up and the Queen is notified of the destruction of Lambda House. Because as such, she deems that she will not allow thieves and poachers of that caliber to run rampant and orders their extermination before the Tifari begins. This, of course, is all part of Norman’s plan which means Emma and Ray are on an eight-day timer to accomplish their goals. When Emma and Ray enter the entrance to the Seven Doors, they are brought to a very familiar place… although it is nothing more than a mere illusion. The question of whether or not they can overcome the illusion and find the doors is where our volume comes to an end.

Author Notes
A very fortunate thing happened-lots of Little Bunny merchandise came out, and I have a lot of Bunny samples in my room.

So...I decided to put different earrings on them so that I can differentiate between them.

To put it mildly, it's awesome.

Not only can I tell them apart, their individuality is coming out.

As soon as there are more Emma items, I'm going to line them up nicely. New merchandise is always something to look forward to.

Please look forward to volume 16!

Writer Shirai's personal highlights for The Promised Neverland fanatics, part 11!

1. Don-doko!! (the original joke came from The Promised Neverland anime episode 9-it was an ad-lib by Mr. Ueki, the actor who plays Don)

2. The stuffed animal that laughed along (clue: HA)

3. The eel streamer returns! And Bunny furiously hangs on!

4. The owl that nods knowingly at the boss's words (or maybe it's just eating and not nodding)

Those who found #2 and #4 are hard-core!

Please enjoy this volume!
