I was so enthralled by this story and the art from the very beginning, the characters are all really fun to read and although some are so annoying they still add a lot to the story and the atmosphere.

A whole school finds themselves stranded on what they believe to be a moon/planet filled with dark forests and human eating monsters and they have to focus on staying alive, keeping their peers alive, and figuring out why they are here and who brought them and how.
You can feel the fear and desperation grow as they realise that this forest/moon is gonna be almost impossible to survive.
It’s also really interesting to read the characters left in the school begin to build a hierarchy and then quickly start turning on each other.

I’m really excited to reading the following volumes and begin to figure out the where’s, the who’s and they why’s.

*content warnings*
Gore, blood, monsters, death of a young person, death, man hitting a woman, visual of injury, violence.
I may have missed some content warnings that may be triggering to you, read/research other reviews if need be.

This was good! I enjoyed the concept it was really intriguing. I did feel like some of the characters were a little annoying. Like a few of them went crazy in literally a day. Also some of the main characters were not my favorite tbh. I’m excited to see where this will go.
