Before proceeding to my review, I will be demonstraiting, pouring out my all my hates on this series. I will not be introducing who the fcking protagonist, antagnonist or characters are in this review. There is a highly reliable source of information provided at the description of the manga so stop being a lazy shit and read the fcking synopsis.
Pardon my informal language used in the introduction, however that is also part of my review. By my use of language, you can already tell how much of a let down Cage of Eden was. The review starts here:
Synopsis: Akira and his friends are on plane and suddenly without a goddamn reason, the plane starts to face heavy turbulance and everyone started panicing. Everyone was shitting their pants out. Akira and his friends were unseated during this event and therefore they were thrown around like some babies toy. A few moments later, Akira sees his childhood friend Rion being dragged into some super-space time vortex, he chances her and guess what? They TELIPORTED, HO MY GOD SO DAMN AMUSING RIGHT? Suddently out of goddamn nowhere, they teliported into some stupid unknown jungle, seperated and there were all fcking extinct animals chasing them like rats.
While in search for their classmates, they stumble accross many dangers, battling pre-historical animals in a FIST FIGHT. This is just going nowhere... it's just so goddamn stupid. Although it is, there was an magnetic factor in this manga that surprisingly, intrigued me in a few short chapters.
The tables turned, I was totally engulfed in reading this manga. There is NO ENDS to each arc. The action scene, (humans vs pre-historical monsters) was indeed admirable in an action manga, and the author himself took no second thoughts to kill of a side character eerie/gorily. You must be thinking, stupid reviewer (me), why should we feel affection for the side characters? TRUST ME YOU'LL GET SO DAMN ATTACHED TO THEM WHEN THEY DIE YOU'LL GOOGLE WHY THEY DIED yada yada blah blah blah no point continuing.
Now putting my hates aside, i'll now explain how this series is so captivating. Firstly, Yamada-sensei (Author) brilliantly integrated the best selling novel series; "The Lord of the Flies", and all time respectable animation series "Jurrassic Park". He compliled those two series into his manga brilliantly. Adding a little charm into it by crafting catchy female characters as well as enhancing it with a light ecchi slides.
Yes, the infamous Lord of the Flies.. majority of you would have heard of it from a teacher or seen it in bookstores. And yes, the novel series is just that good, the play stimulates the possible outcomes when KIDS start having their own COUNTRY, They kill each other, rape each other, betray each other bla bla bla go to an elementry school to find out yourself. (vulgar words ahead)
Basically, it was a masterpiece... UNTIL THE LAST CHAPTER, CHAPTER 185 CAME, IT WAS FINALLY THE END! EVERYHING WAS GOING TO BE REVIEWED! WHY WAS THERE A ISLAND FILLED WITH EXTINCED ANIMALS? HOW DID THEY GET THERE, WHY? WHEN? HOW? WHO? WHAT? WHATTT?!?!?!. I WAS BLOWN OFF, WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT? NONE OF THEM WERE ANSWERED.
Seriously I have no fucking idea of what happened next. The last 23 pages of the manga was just so fucking bad, it's even worst than getting played into the hands of my friends into watching boku no pico. I HAD EXTREMELY HIGH EXPECTATIONS, all those suspense, all those feels, tears, boners, laughs, salvation, hope all those perfect SCRIPTS, THE PERFECT AND CRAFTY CHARACTERS, THEY WERE ALL, FOR 4 YEARS OF SERIALIZATION PUT TO WASTE.
SUCH A LETDOWN, I COULD DIE ANY MOMENT. HURRRRRRRRRR, the author must've went brain dead towards the end. How in the fuck can he end an awesome series into oblivion with just 23 pages.
Nevertheless, this was one of the best manga's with one of the best plots i've ever seen and it did certainly revived my dead motivation to read manga. However... that ending... was just so unbearable that I had to let out all the feels in this so-called review. I'm not doing this to gain publicity or anything, im just expressing my crushed will to live.
