Getting good.

World: The art took it up a notch in detail this arc with the stuff inside the pyramid, the detail was nice. The world building here is solid, there are a lot of mysteries this time around and we get a lot of questions and still no answers but the questions are intriguing and this is the reason I am reading this book. Good stuff.

Story: The story is fairly straightforward this time around with the pyramid and the people and the situation with Yarai. The central mystery of the pyramid is front and center here and I really do enjoy that aspect of this book. The new character and the new villain is rather ho hum as we’ve seen them so many times in different versions that it’s the same old same old. However as I said, the world and the mystery is the driving force here.

Characters: The new villain is rather ho hum, same old same old. I do like the interaction between Yarai and the teacher and also the small little conversations we are getting with the group. It’s not super deep but it does at least give us some nice little relatability.

Ah the mystery is getting good.

Onward to the next book!

Another awesome volume in the series, this one didn't have many prehistoric animals. But now the team is dealing with something worse than monsters. Man, a doctor to be precise, and they are now trying to discover the secrets. Ok then, let's see what happens, and then let's keep on reading.

I have always loved comics, and I can, and I have. I love comics to bits; may the comics never leave my side. I loved reading this and love reading more. You should also read what you love, and I hope you will always love it. Even though I grew up reading local Indian comics like Raj Comics, Diamond Comics, or even Manoj Comics, now's the time to catch up on international and classic comics, Mangas, Mahwas, and Graphic novels. I am on my quest to read as many comics as I just want to Keep on Reading.

This was my first time reading a genre like this in manga, and I was really surprise because I love it as much as I love this kind of genre with my books!

My, I just love the idea of mixing suspense, mystery, adventure and science fiction (?) to this story. It was definitely a first time for me and I have to say that this series is going to stay with me for a very very long time (probably forever hahaha).

I love the suspense and mystery (like duh, haha) and I don't think I found some parts in this series that I dislike.

Dang, I'm just rambling haha. Ohh well, just read this series and I'm sure you'll get hook too. And oops, that ending was....I dunno, I just feel that we're going to expect more to come ;)

So there are advanced machinations inside the pyramid. This is not that deserted island. There is still hope in coming out.

Kehadiran creatures mulai berkurang. Sekarang plot mendekati misteri kebenaran pulau

Finalmente conosciamo un nemico davvero cattivo! Akira viene costretto, dal medico cattivo, ad esplorare i sotterranei della Piramide assieme al suo gruppo, tenendo in ostaggio la hostess (che nel frattempo incontra, nella cella dove è tenuta prigioniera, un altro professore ovvero Kokonoe Ugen (prof di scienze della scuola di Akira). Il gruppo di Akira, però, resta intrappolato nei sotterranei ma scoprono l'esistenza di enormi macchinari che generavano eneergia elettrica, nonchè un ascensore che comprende oltre 30 piani sotterranei. Infine, scoprono un vero e proprio giardino.

Devo dire che, fra tutti gli albi, questo ha ricordato molto Lost, soprattutto la "parte sotterranea".

I have no explanation for this section. The only way I can think of a plant that can survive without photosynthesis eat creatures. Please tell me they did not just land on carnivorous plants. We won't know until later, but I really don't want to have to deal with that. These kids have been through enough. Can they go home yet? I am starting to like these kids and just want them to be safe at home again. I do want to discover if my theory about the island is correct, so I am dedicated to finishing this series now. How will things be shaken up this time?

[Infinite Scythe · Rating 3 out of 5]

At least the actions picking up. I would rather see what's happening with Yarai than Sengoku.
No sun=living plants. Yes that's right. -.-
Idek what's even happening any more. Can we find out the scientists goals and be done already?

seru.. akhirnya Sengoku ketemu Nishikiori dan dipaksa masuk ke dalam piramida yg dinding dan langit-langitnya udah rapuh. ternyata di dalam piramidanya ada 31 lantai ke bawah,apa yang terjadi selanjutnya?? :-D baca sendiri ya. hihihi

[Sean O'Hara · Rating 3 out of 5]

The idea that the island might be Jurassic Park (okay, Pliocene Park) never occurred to anyone? How stupid are these kids?

[Abdulaziz Fagih · Rating 2 out of 5]

It’s OK not great and not bad you can say it’s enjoyable with some interesting event here and there
