| I pretty much enjoyed the whole series except near the ending, things were a bit rushed such as love confessions and the mutants just "stopped" attacking. I really liked it though =) |

| As a horror manga it didn't really do much for me. |

| This series was rather disappointing given the fact that it was awarded, but I suppose this is the best 1975 could do. The overall message is not bad, especially regarding its global environmental aspect. The serious flaw with this manga is the illogical events and its characters imo. The characters are very very annoying, and mind you, I have taken in mind that they are kids below 12. Everyone seems to create drama out of nowhere, after one has been solved. It happened all the time. Other illogical events such as supernatural occurrence, unrealistic knowledge on certain stuff, monsters, or the out of place romance development within the final few chapters. I really had to force myself through a lot of annoying chapters. Also, if you remember, the kitchen was in the block with Sho back when Sho and Otomo divide themselves into two faction. There was no way Otomo's gang could have survived longer than Sho's gang could, and Sho's gang was on their verge of dying, Otomo's gang should have been dead. How the hell is Sekiya still alive after so many days? He was wasting foods and shit, he should have been dead sooner than any others. It was annoying that this manga tried to be smart, but fell short of its own idiocy. No offense meant there. |

| I picked up this manga because it was number 1 in a Top 10 Horror Manga list. While I expected something more...horrific and grotesque, I was impressed and not disappointed after completing it. I was particularly hesitant because I tend to not like things older than the 90's. Heck, it's literally as old as my mother yet I still found The Drifting Classroom to be a good read. I had hopes that they would be able to come back but it was not to be... at least it was partially fulfilled with Yu returning with Sho's journal. How they were running in the stars was such a bittersweet moment that I struggled ta not shed tears because I think that they're finally going to a better future just like in the movies~ The gift from the sky was confusingly unexpected but when it was explained...the feels ='( I have to agree that the ending feels rushed with all the events that transpired within the last volume. The disembodied arm with half a face of a co-burglar from the beginning that was just revealed in the last chapter finally managed to kill that goddamn Sekiya. Of all things to kill him, that was ridiculous xD Otomo made a 180° despite being a douche the whole story and starting this whole mess but I can't help but like him a little bit... Turns out that they were the chosen ones to rebuild the future, a seed of hope for the barren wasteland that used to be earth. This manga conveyed a strong message to care about our planet before it can turn out like this. I respect that. The supernatural aspects like the centipede, mutant attacks and the unexplained psychic powers must've been there to increase the spook factor and science fiction feel. It's the 70's we're talking about so our style of horror today should be different from theirs. That ride was groovy tho :3 |

| Despite the uplifting ending, I don't trust that these kids aren't going to try to kill each other again. |
| Pretty great manga overall despite the open ending. Fun experience as I've been getting each volume from my library over the past 4 months and I'm really satisfied now that it's over. 8/10 |
| This manga was really interesting and had no problem reading it entirely, but man the characters were dumb. Sure they were kids so they were prone to do dumb stuff, but even the adults were stupid. Worst yet, Sho is the type of character i hate the most...the "pure hero". The type of character the no matter how many times someone tries to kill him, he will not try kill back that person and will even risky his life to try save him, For me this is just too stupid, i hate this a lot. Sekiya was a bastard that would kill any of them without thinking twice, but Sho still saved him (when he had the black plague) and still wanted to fight others so they would not use him as a lab rat. Otomo did so much shit near the end and Sho could not bring himself to kill him no matter how many times Otomo tried to kill him. Otomo also caused the deaths of many students because of kept inciting them to do violent stuff when they were already prone to do that. Many plot points were strange to say the least...how the fuck that mans arm and eyes were fine? How the hell it flew to attack Sekiya? What happened to the Princess (the bully girl) who got old? The fact that the school was sent to the future just because a dynamite some kid made is bonkers too. I didn't like this...i thought the reason they went to the future would be something more interesting. Also the biggest question...why Otomo would be inside the school he was trying to blow up? 6/10 is fair enough for me. |
I despise woke people. |
| I don't mind ambiguous endings and I actually love bittersweet ones; but you can't deny, it was utterly rushed! There were several things left unexplained and the worse of it all was that apparition of the arm and the half of the face. That thing should've been clarified how it came to be so that it won't ridiculously become a deus ex machina! |
 She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did! |
| I will tell things how they are. It's a great manga, it inspired the anime Sonny Boy which i preferred because The best moment of this manga was watching the small kid having high testosterone at the end, and wanting to return to the main world no matter what the other retards thought, and he did... |
