Hey wait speaking of the musical doing well do you think there's hope for it to become somewhat popular or has the japanese fandom moved on
[Post regarding the announcement of the stage musical]
Depends on how we're measuring for popularity?
With how little news is coming from official sources it's hard to gauge, but looking at Demizu's twitter, her TPN-related posts are usually the ones that receive the most engagement.

Ray's 2026 Birthday Post and a post from the next day:
Small sampling but you get the idea, there's still an audience interested in TPN.
But is that audience willing to spend money on it?
According to 寿 三井 @/Josu_ke on twitter, TPN sold 10 million physical volumes in Japan since it ended in 2020 (link to HQ chart if tumblr nerfs it):
But most of that was in 2020-2021 based on Demon Slayer's numbers, which also ended in 2020 but picked up enough sales in Japan with the release of the Infinity Castle movie in 2025 to mark a little uptick on the chart:
2010-2019 for comparison:
(Original Oricon data chart complied by @Josu_ke in 2021 | @yakuneba_staff's series' 7th anniversary tweet in 2023 | List of best-selling manga Wikipedia Page)
This isn't factoring in merchandise sales, but with TPN season 1 performing poorly leading to the severe truncation of season 2 taking it from a critical darling of Winter 2019 to the laughing stock of Winter 2021 damaging its reputation and popular consensus outside the fandom that anything after the escape is of lower quality, I think the musical has the potential to be popular within a niche of the fandom, but not a big pull to draw a lot of new blood in, though this is based on the assumption that by virtue of popularity and practical logistics they'll follow the lead of the live action movie and only adapt the escape arc rather than adapting material that's never been adapted before like Goldy Pond. We'll see what any new news brings us!
Random but if anyone wants to know the entirety of the tpn lore in the mangas I will explain the entire series if you dm asking
( we've been in the tpn fandom since 2020 around, watched the entire anime and have reread the books over 50 times and just got the 5 last books of the tpn manga series )
Brain Eating Amobe and The Promised Neverland's Demons Reference
(repost bc i can't explain what i'm saying and have a bunch of writing mistake)
(Not a real theory but have sense)
Soooo
I found a reference about Naegleria fows (Brain eating Amoeba) and Demons in our beloved promised Neverland world
First of all i explain Demon's functions and then connected them to brain eating Amobe.
Demons can evolve with horizantal gene transfer. Demon's eat creature's brain ans evolve with brains. Also this Eating necessary for their lives but human brain isn't necessary for them. Even human brain isn't necessary for their life demons want to think and reach humans brains. Norman says, in beginning Demons have bacteria-like appareance then shift with transformation
Naegleria Fows similarties with demons ( Brain Eating Amobe) These Amobea not an real Amobe and have a bacteria-like appearance . Neagleri Fows actually a shape-shifting amoeboflagellate
In the start they have bacteria-like appearance (Demons have it too)
Norman says
Amoeboflagellate means a one-celler creature who have characteristics found in both plants and animals.
It have functions which found plants and animals
Amoeboflagellate have a group which is names by prosist and in this group multiceller creatures doesn't have cells differentiated into tissues. This means if a tissue can heal by cells other tissue can heal with its own cells too(in the creatures who regenerate with mitosis all cells can do mitosis if this creature is one seller). For example human's retina cells can't heal but if we have same cells in all of our body parts -well this isn't working for human's lives- but retina tissue can heal. Because other tissues can heal
Naegleria Fows can do shape shift and have a life-cycle which build about shape-shift. Amoebas and this Amoeboflagellate doesn't have a specific shape
Shapless Monsters
Naegleria Fows can kill a human by brain effected . They live in waters, make sudden and fatal brain damage.
There was a place named Goldy Pond where child die before they can't understand what happened
These are parallels i found and just want to share. I love Goldy Pond's reality
In the end, want to hear a real theory ?Ray read about Brain eating Amoeba as a child and decided Demons eating brains. In Grace Field Ray talk to Norman about it but they both don't know Demons "need" eating brains or Demons evolve. In Lambda, Norman remember all Ray said and explore Demon's ecolvs
This just came to my mind from the first time i learn naegleria Fows. Hope this logical in its own because i think i even can't call this a theory
Maybe Ratri family try to contorl Demon's evolve with watching amoeba
Ahhh, sadly I don’t! I’m not really in that sphere at all. I barely know anyone for spoiler reasons haha- I’m just in my small corner, doin my thing pff.
But maybe if people see this and know any, they can reply to / reblog the post and recommend some! >:3
