We finally get some answers as to how the future ended up the wasteland that the kids are in now. But still, it's one thing after another! And they just have the worst luck ever. When there's a moment of good it is immediately followed by some catastrophe of some sort and it's generally Sho trying to keep everyone safe and together with someone else opposing him. Poor kid.

Magic mushrooms, mutant creatures evolved from humans, a volcano underneath Tokyo. Just another day in the life of Sho and his school chums. This volume again displays a certain 70s sensibility, with its depiction of environmental degradation through urbanisation and projection of a swift decline into an apocalypse.

Wow. Every time I think that things in this series can not possibly get any crazier, they do. But love it! So creepy and hopeless!
