tawfek's review against another edition

This truly is mad.
Its packed with events as usual.
Its just tiring that they are all bad events.
The volume starts with the mutants going after the kids, they reach the school and attack them.
That scumbag sekiya takes his car and drives off with all the food, i have literally never seen a more degenerate character in all my readings, he is the original scumbag that everyone else just branch from.
Takamatsu screams at the mutants that they will die anyway without food and it seems they listen to him.
Otmo makes his move and parts from Takamatsu taking a part of the school and its war between the two teams with fatalities on both sides.
Then the operation Takamatsu has appendicitis and they perform on him, with absolutely no professional tools at all, and they succeed.
That phenomenon of takamatsu's mother being able to reach him when that girl is passed out is really weird but it kind of gives hope to the kids.
The ending a strange woman arrives to take the kids to a paradise, but honestly if she really knew where a place like that was she wouldn't look that bad but we will see.

Alright, I can believe that Sho is channeling his mother through time and space. I can accept bugs were evolved from humans due to strange mushrooms, but for them to perform the perfect appendix removal surgery without a single problem aside from the screaming coming from Sho? I can’t accept that at all. I know I accepted a lot of other things but they were a part of fiction where this surgery is just too close to realism to accept.

I think I've suddenly realized why this series is so effective to me. It talks about the underestimated tension that will increase between our current generation and the previous ones who left us a world on the brink of environmental collapse.
This is confirmed by the references towards pollution and the injustice of being thrown into a dying world without clean water, good food or even a chance at life. And it takes that and it turns it into a horror story about adapting to radically different world than the one you grew up in.
And this was written in what, the 80s? The 70s? That is incredible. And it even has kids involved in knife fights, serial killers, time traveling communication... shit is a masterpiece! You have to accept some absurdities here and there, but I really don't mind them. And if the operation chapter doesn't do it for you, I don't know what to tell you.

Occasional weird creature aside, this one is mostly about the internal conflicts as one of the worst characters continues to be a shit and manages to have one of the most squirmy sequences in the series without a monster in sight.

Things have gone from bad to worse. The students have split again, one side following Sho and the other side with Otomo. And while Otomo threatens war to get control of the school building Sho's body seems to be failing him.
Still trying to figure out how her son is able to contact her and how to help him Emiko continues writing letters and keeping any line of communication open no matter who believes her.
It's hard to imagine what the students could face next. It seems like every bad thing that could possibly happen has happened at this point!

Poor Sho. He's survived everything the future wasteland world has thrown at him and then ends up being struck down by appendicitis of all things and being crudely operated on by his classmates minus anaesthetic. I haven't felt squeamish reading this series but this would be the volume to do it!
