Synopsis

It's a day like any other, and high school students Ie and Kazu are on the bus home from school when, suddenly, it floods with a mysterious gas. The pair pass out and wake up to find themselves aboard a truck packed full of human bodies. They're surrounded by rows of frozen corpses... and a staff of living human beings sawing them into pieces. Where are they... and how can they escape from this nightmare?

I think it's a solid story of balls to the walls action and madness, I think the ending is quite tragic and sad, and I was honestly surprised that there would be a sequel, . I would definitely not recommend if you are uncomfortable with gore and guts, I read this after reading Gantz and while I found that 400ish chapter ride quite hellish and gory and edgy, this is below that level, not quite as intense in its visuals and storytelling but still a nice ride. At first, I was drawn in by this human mystery and then it turned into an alien farming ...

The plot is a mess and the characters are uninspired, half of the cast geniuenly only exists to serve as a constant source of Deus-Ex-Machina's. It speaks volumes that the only somewhat likeable character in the story with actual screentime is an (implied) gay rapist. The author has several characters, across who can pretty much canonically achieve anything at any moment (and at several points do, with no foreshadowing), yet somehow still manages to make plotholes, somehow. I liked the suprise twist somewhere around the middle of the manga, too bad that it didn't amount to anything other than setting the stage for the final ...
