The one-shot was popular among readers and Sugita expressed that they were the right team for The Promised Neverland. Before The Promised Neverland began its serialization, Shirai and Demizu published the one-shot Poppy’s Wish (ポピィの願い, Poppy no Negai) on the Shōnen Jump+ online platform in February 2016. Sugita said that Shirai and Demizu had a kind of synergy similar to Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata, the creators of Death Note. Some candidates turned down the offer, giving comments like the story did not feel like a Jump manga, or that it would not become a hit, so they were "really happy and excited" when Demizu agreed to work on it. Shirai considered Posuka Demizu as one of the candidates, as he and Sugita felt that her art was the best fit for the series' imagery. They had difficulties trying to find an artist whose style could match the story, ranging from famous illustrators to new and upcoming talent.

Suguru Sugita, the editor of The Promised Neverland, said that the series was an ambitious work, with both bright and dark scenes that needed a world of fantasy that would also create suspense. Kaiu Shirai brought the 300 page of The Promised Neverland draft to the Weekly Shōnen Jump editorial department. The series first conception originated by the end of 2013, from a draft originally simply titled Neverland, but was later changed to The Promised Neverland after running into some copyright issues. Eventually, through her own determination, Emma secures the freedom of all the children and re-forges "The Promise", but at the cost of her own memory. Emma and Ray later meet up again with Norman and together with their allies, they fight a battle for freedom against the demon queen Legravalima and the human Peter Ratri who manages the Farms. They encounter demons of all descriptions, including Mujika and Sonju who aid them in their quest.

The escapees find life outside Grace Field House is filled with dangers, but under the leadership of Emma and Ray, they become determined to return to free their remaining siblings, along with children from the other Farms. Emma and Ray then decide to escape with some of their older siblings, leaving the younger children behind. Emma and Norman plan with Ray to escape from Grace Field House with the children, but Norman is taken off to be "adopted". At the gate, they find Conny dead and discover the truth about their existence in this idyllic orphanage – to be raised as meat for demons. One night, a girl named Conny is sent away to be "adopted", but Emma and Norman follow with her favorite stuffed animal toy. The orphans are allowed complete freedom, except to venture beyond the perimeter wall or gate which separate the house from the outside world. Their education is seen as an important part of their development, and Emma with her two best friends Norman and Ray, always excel in the regular exams.
They lead an idyllic life, with plentiful food, plush beds, clean clothes, games and the love of their "Mom", Isabella. The bright and cheerful Emma is an 11-year-old orphan living in Grace Field House, a self-contained orphanage housing her and 37 other orphans. They believed that they were orphans and once they reached a certain age or intelligence, they would be taken out for adoption, but were fed to high-ranking demons instead. These children had identifying numbers tattooed on them and had no knowledge of the outside world. In the demon world, a special breeding program was set up under the guise of orphanages there, a human "Mother" would oversee the children to make sure they grew up as intelligent as possible. By eating humans, demons take on their attributes which prevent them from degenerating into mindless monsters.
"The Promise" was an agreement where each would live in their own separate "worlds": the human world, free from the threat of demons and the demon world, where human breeding farms were set up to provide food for the demons. It is the year 2045, and over 1000 years after an agreement called "The Promise" was made to end a long war between humans and demons.
