I dug that he died, since--for me, at least--the whole "no one could have lived through that" setup followed by the inevitable escape of the crazy dude is kind of overplayed as an ending. Have enough conviction to finish your story, I say.

And the cut from the whole "the ship is the same as the world" conversation, to him alone in the lifeboat, was very nice.

This manga read like a bad B movie plot. 9/11, Germans killing Japanese, humanity is evil... All the same lame conspiracy theories or references that are overused to produce shock value. Even though the plot twists were predictable, the visuals are quite good and manage to capture the essence of the insane atmosphere. It would be too harsh to give this an average grade and too forgiving to recommend it to others.

In the end, this manga is a quick concentrated shot of gory adrenaline that takes less than an hour to read.

6/10 (Fine)

Tried hard but it felt really contrived at best.

Didn't demonstrate anything that we don't know already. Also the fact that the series is too short and the characters have no personality makes it worse.
bla bla bla
The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

This was a beast manga. Very fast paced but every page was awesome. I really enjoyed reading it. That twist at the end totally completed the story. 8/10.

Great manga, I just wish it was longer. The art was also really good as well.

Underwhelming overall... I thought it would be really amazing but it left me kind of wanting more.

I really hated this manga. It had such an intriguing set-up for a nice and mature thriller.....and then it introduces maybe the most baffling and stupid bunch of nazis I've seen in manga/anime. I mean what was that? Like those guys reminded me of Hellsing and Black Lagoon, but there they were suposed to be over the top crazy and it worked in combination with the rest of the story.
Here we have a realistic Thriller and the nazis ruined everything about it.

Maybe the only thing this reminds me of were the nazis in the first arc of Vatican Miracle Examiner. It was terrible then, but at least in a so-bad-it's-funny-sense. Here it was not......

So in the end, this manga had a fine start and one of the most appealingly terrible second halves I've read. The plot, atmosphere, dialogue and just everything that was good at the start turned into complete garbage.

I would only recomend this to hardcore fans of the trashiest kind of b-movies.
