The Promised Neverland 136. The maze has been revealed. This time, Ray has given us the correct answer about the seven walls. This time, I will introduce my thoughts and thoughts on chapter 136.
136 Simple Synopsis
As usual, the two are at the mercy of the bizarre world. In the midst of all this, Ray realizes the true nature of the seven doors. After that, the two come out to the desert, where Emma has been torn apart like a puzzle and has disappeared. Ray is on the verge of breaking down. There he finds what appears to be the soul of a demon who once tried to cross the seven walls. At that moment, Emma appears again.
Maze
The title was written in furigana as "maze", but in the text it was written in kana as "maze". Maze means labyrinth in English. Emma and her friends' world is in the northern hemisphere at mid-latitudes in the first volume, and the world map that was displayed was not drawn with Japan at the center, but rather a European one, so it was probably drawn with Europe as the model.
What is the true identity of the seven walls?
According to Ray's theory, there are six, top, bottom, left, right, front, back, and time. That makes seven in total. The physical limits of space-time. That's what the seven doors are. The paintings hanging above the person who looked like him in the six towers were cubes and hourglasses, and they represented the physical limits of space-time. I didn't expect that at all.
Six ceiling paintings
The remaining one of the six ceiling paintings was shown for the first time. It wasn't focused on much either. The only other painting I could see besides the five that I knew about was a picture of what looked like a demon kneeling at the entrance. Looking back carefully, I saw something that looked like that painting for a moment when I tried the entrance with Don and the others. I don't know why it hadn't appeared until now. Or rather, the day and night paintings were the last. I thought it was the first.
How do you get past the seven walls?
The remaining text is "When the sun sets in the east, it appears where there is no earth." Since it says "When the sun sets in the east," it must mean that it is night. Perhaps the darkness in one of the six ceiling paintings represents that? So how do they make it night? Hmm... I have no idea. Anyway, I'm curious to see what happens next.
Promises can only be broken by humans
When Songju says that only humans can break the promise, does that mean that only humans can cross the seven walls? Or does the promise itself have an effect that demons can't do anything about? This too still remains a mystery.
