This is the story of a gang of boys who try to save the world!; As boys, Kenji and his friends came up with a bunch of stories about an evil organization bent on world destruction. As adults, someone is now turning their fantasies into reality! R to L (Japanese Style). Fourteen years after "Bloody New Year's Eve" brought the world to the brink of extinction, Neo Tokyo in the year 2014 has fully recovered and become a thriving, multiethnic metropolis. Kanna has survived the chaos and is now 17 years old--and has just stumbled upon a terrible truth that may change her destiny. Meanwhile, at a maximum security prison ten kilometers out in the middle of Tokyo Bay, a young manga artist learns firsthand the chilling downsides of the world he now inhabits. Things go from bad to almost unbearable when he's thrown into solitary confinement right near one of the prison's most notorious inmates. Has all hope been lost, or will this mysterious prisoner offer the frightened artist his only true shot at escape? Humanity, having faced extinction at the end of the 20th century, would not have entered the new millennium if it weren't for them. In 1969, during their youth, they created a symbol. In 1997, as the coming disaster slowly starts to unfold, that symbol returns. This is the story of a gang of boys who try to save the world.… (altro)

This story arc starts in 2014. Kanna, Kenji's niece is now 17 years old and she spends her time between a small restaurant delivery and her college. Being rebellious as her uncle, she very soon starts on bad foot with her neighbors due to loud music and gets in the middle of gang conflict and attracts the attention of police. This brings Yukiji to Kanna's flat to apologize for Kanna's behavior.

Way this volume's story develops is perfect. As we follow Kanna's adventures we are not quite sure what is going on and what happened in 14 years. And then the end! Story ends on a high note indeed.

Art as always is gorgeous.

Highly recommended. ( )

This is a hell of a manga. This volume has set up a lot of interesting stuff, and I'm really looking forward to seeing how all of this pays off. ( )

So our intrepid heroes were all utter failures. I can't say I'm really surprised, but I am surprised by how much I was rooting for them anyway.

Regardless, I love these new characters and their interesting lives. I don't feel too sorry for Otchu because he's such a strong MF I just want to rely on him despite his situation. If anyone can pull the rest of the plot from the fire, I feel like he can. What a world they live in. Still plenty of intrigue and betrayal to go around. At least the underdogs are all very very underdoggy. I can't imagine rooting for anyone else. Everyone's an antihero except for "Friend". ( )
