“The Promised Neverland” has never been a story of dreams coming true and friends always being together. It’s a story about survival and the costs of living on even after all of the sacrifices made. That is why the break that “The Promised Neverland” Chapter 121 will offer is something that fans may want to be wary of. It can be the chance to take a breather before readers are sucked back into a pitiless world of betrayal, death, and survival.
As TheAnimeScrolls notes, it would appear that Emma is not entirely onboard with Norman’s plan to wipe out the demons by destroying farms and the like. However, “The Promised Neverland” Chapter 121 will go further with providing hints as to what the female protagonist has in mind. Based on the leaks that have been circulating the web, it would seem that she will test her friend to see if he will become their next enemy.
Fans will already know that Emma is quite protective of her family and would not want to undertake risky endeavors unless given no other choice. What Norman is proposing poses a lot of dangers for her and the other children. Ray might agree with his plan, but Emma will not. This is why she will challenge Norman to a match of chess in “The Promised Neverland” Chapter 121.
While bringing out a chess set might seem harmless to most people, perceptive readers will immediately realize that this is a test harking back to the earlier chapters of the manga. The trio basically did the same thing to Isabella to gauge her intellect and see how difficult she will be as an opponent. This is why the chess match in “The Promised Neverland” Chapter 121 will not just be a chess match.
It should be noted that “The Promised Neverland” Chapter 121 will end with the trio falling asleep together as they did in the old days. However, this might be the last time that readers will see such a peaceful scene. The chapter will come out on Feb. 4 and fans will want to read what happens.
