The Promised Neverland Wiki

An Old Tale ( (むかし) (ばなし) , Mukashi Banashi?) is the forty-seventh chapter of The Promised Neverland manga.

Synopsis[]

We learn that the world hasn’t been in the hands of the demons for a mere thirty years, but rather thousands.

Plot[]

As we learn that the world hasn’t been in the hands of the demons for a mere thirty years, but rather thousands. It’s here the manga reveals it’s more alternate history than alternate future, with the manga having an entirely different world building than our true history. It also takes the opportunity to smack down the alien planet theory that’s been running around.

When Ray and Emma have just heard all the history. We think they’re wallowing in despair but they’re jumping for joy, that means they can escape the world of demons to the world of humans.

When recounting the history Sonju makes it clear there’s the Demon ‘world’ and the human ‘world'. Sonju reveals that you can’t cross over to the human world as the path is blocked. Again Emma and Ray despair before pronouncing that they’ll be fine.
