The story of The Promised Neverland begins at GF Farm, where children are farmed to be food for demons. The story begins with the oldest children, Ray, Norman, and Emma, plotting to escape from the farm. All the children over the age of 5 manage to escape the farm, but how many of them were there, and what kind of children were they? Here, we'll take a look at the children who managed to escape from GF Farm.

Emma is the main character of this story. She is 11 years old at the beginning of the story. She is a genius who always gets perfect scores on her tests, and is a kind-hearted protagonist who wants to save everyone at the farm. She is the leader of the children who escaped from the farm. Emma will likely continue to play an active role in the future. If she hadn't been at the farm, the escape with such a large group of people would probably not have happened.

He's a smart guy who gets perfect scores on tests along with Emma. He's a strategist and was originally a spy for Mama, but it was all for the sake of saving Emma and the others. It's no exaggeration to say that Norman and Ray came up with the general plan for this escape, so he's an important character. He was 11 years old, but turned 12 just before the escape. They all escaped from GF Farm on Ray's birthday.
GF Farm Escapee Gilda

Gilda is said to be the third smartest after Emma, Ray, and Norman. In terms of age, she is one year younger than Emma and the others. She wears glasses and is interested in fashion. Sister Krone also has a high regard for her. Gilda was not originally a character who played a major role, but she gradually became a reliable presence together with Don. Gilda, who appeared with Don from the beginning, is a reliable person who takes good care of the younger children.

Don, who is the same age as Gilda, was also one of the people who learned the secrets of the farm from early on. He is a refreshingly honest boy who expresses his feelings openly. Gilda and Don are often paired together, and Don's grades seem to be gradually improving. It was Don and Gilda who took the lead in training the children just before they escaped. It seems that Don will have more opportunities to play an active role in the future.
GF Farm Escapee Nat

Nat is 9 years old and one year younger than Gilda and the others, standing 133cm tall. At the beginning of the story, he is the boy who Gilda talks to about how Emma, Norman, and Ray are unusually outstanding in both academics and sports. Although we have not yet learned much about his personality, he is one of the older members of the escape group.
GF Farm Escapee Anna

Lanyon, a 7-year-old with an onion-like head, is 125cm tall. During a game of tag with Krone, he uses his small body to escape into a hole in the trees, but is destroyed and captured by Krone's superhuman strength. He is also surprised that Don and Gilda have already been caught.
GF Farm Escapee Touma

Touma is also 7 years old. He is also the one who shouted that Rani had disappeared immediately after the escape. He was one of the four who did not fall into the hole in the vampire tree. He is also the one who Lanion said to Krone, "You're amazing," shaking his shoulders, so perhaps he is on good terms with Lanion.
GF Farm Escapee Dominic

In the introduction, 6-year-old Dominic was described simply as active. When he escaped, Anna pushed him from behind and he crossed the river on a hanger. He's only 6 years old, but when he arrived at the shelter and took a bath, he said that it felt like he hadn't had a bath in 10 years, even though it had only been 7 days.
GF Farm Escapee Jemima

A 5-year-old girl with permed hair. She was the one who got scared on the wall when she tried to escape, and with Rei holding her, she escaped using a hanger. The introduction only said that she was serious.

Five-year-old boys. Emma and her friends realized they had transmitters attached to them when Mark got separated from Nyla and cried and begged his mother for help. They rescued Nyla too quickly, which made Emma and her friends realize the presence of the transmitter.
GF Farm Escapee Yvette

Yvette is a 5-year-old girl. She is introduced as an artist and always appears with a sketchbook. She doesn't have any particular connection to the story, but maybe one day her sketches will come in handy.
GF Farm Escapee Christie

A 5-year-old boy. This child is probably the one who has made the fewest appearances. He has not made any appearances at all. However, he does appear next to Emma, who says, "I'll definitely come back within two years!" I wonder if he will have a big impact in the future.
GF Farm Escapee Rossy

This is also a 5-year-old boy. He is described as a cautious person and is depicted shaking at every opportunity, but when he crosses the wall to the other side, he puts on a brave face. He can make that face. He is also a boy who burst into tears when he took a bath at the shelter.
GF Farm Escapee Alicia

A 5-year-old girl. She also appears relatively infrequently. In the prison escape scene, she was able to cross the bridge on a hanger all by herself. Regardless of whether she will have future success or not, she is a girl we want to see survive more than anything else.
GF Farm Escapees Summary

So far, no one has dropped out of the escape group. It's pretty tough for 15 kids to escape and not die. I'm curious to see what they do next, but more than anything, I hope they find happiness soon. That was the story of the 15 kids.
