Chapter 1

[KageKageKing]

Did I just saw Donald Trump?

[maxterdexter]

You just saw Donald Trump die.

Also, Adam and Eve.

[auem]

I was wondering of those 'so many things left to be done' thinking of DT,i hope authors was joking.
Anyway,a good premises,i get the vibe of Cage of Eden.....

All rigth:

Did the gasoline explode? That shouldn't happen in these conditions, -1 science points

If the birds aren't a red herring and were actually turned to stone like mankind, then it was a test run on whatever caused the incident.

From the two only examples that we have, only those persons who's minds could hold for thousands of years are able to wake up, this means that this will be a world of weirdos and mad people. The girl had also a crush on buff boy, and had a similar personality as seen by the vet incident so she migth wake up soonish

Any evolution in just 2k years is impossible, only reversing domestication and the retaking of cities, and the painful carnage of farm animals by emboldened predators could be predicted. I hope someone watched "discovery channel after the end"

--- Update From New Post Merge ---

Finally, the valley of human rocks could have been natural, or artificial made by someone who woke up during the first thousand years. Or just where stones roll to.

I wonder if the Pilar humans are breakable only when their minds die. As in similar conditions than buff boy people crumbled. I'm wondering if someone at the bottom of the sea or in one of the plane crashes could still be intact.

Damo Tamaki is going to sue for cultural appropriation

[Cyclone_Baroness]

So far I'm interested in seeing where this is going.

[spyda]

I like this, I like this a lot

kinda reminds me of Dragon Quest 5


I don't get the pun in muscle dude name, his name is Ooki Taiju right?

so his name translate to Big tree Big tree? and how to write that in kanji?

[El-Matematico]

I don't think 3700 years is enough to turn a city into something resembling a virgin jungle. There should have been a lot more worn out structures, and the plan should be more about scavenging than creating civilization out of wood and stones. Unless man made stuff was destroyed by something other than natural processes.

[maxterdexter]

Chernovil is already half way there. You underestimate the power of nature.

--- Update From New Post Merge ---

http://www.boredpanda.com/nature-rec...-civilization/ can't find the proper post but there. Less than 100 can be reclaimed, and with just the view that we saw we can't say how much the structures were really destroyed.



A show: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_After_People

[El-Matematico]

Eh, not really? All big structures in there are still intact. Buildings, streets, that ferris weel photographers love to shoot. Not that Chernobyl is the best example, since it's so recent and a lot of life just can't live there at all. I was thinking more along the lines of the pictures of Angkor in the link, where nature overtook but there's clearly structures underneath. But then again, there was a mysterious light that turned only people to stone, so I'm siding with that for now. Otherwise I feel like scavenging the location of an old wardware store for plastic and metal tools makes more sense than going back to wood and stone.

[Count Mario]

Hm... This has potential. I like how the girl actually had a bit of a cool personality, how endearing Taiju's spunkiness is, and how inevitably lovable of a smartass Senkuu will be. And that 10 Billion% assurance quirk is beautiful scriptwriting. This series can be a pretty good mix of humor and heart if done right.

[CCC]

So...I'm doing this JUMPSTART. Seems fun so far!


...My first thought was Reagan, not Trump. Kind of a hybrid?

I don't get the pun in muscle dude name, his name is Ooki Taiju right?

Yup, that's all it is. 大木大樹. Just supposed to be a "mighty"-sounding name.

[spyda]

thanks a lot for the explanation!

and good luck with the series, I hope it does well in the magazine

The theory matches up. Well smarty smarty-pants will tell us next chapter either way.

Good luck CCC, this one seems the closest bridge of something like the promised Neverland (a great injustice, prodigy protagonists but under human limitation, a societal collapse) with an opportunity to go old school battle manga.

*Skimmed through mangastream comments, saw bunch of ppl saying art is similiar to that of sun ken rock*

Couldn't have facepalmed harder.

[Baldulf]

Not really grasped by it but I'm curious about how this would develop.

I prefer Boichi's other running series, Origin.

[Kaizou 10]

I prefer Boichi's other running series, Origin.

Well, he isn't writing the story for this one.

[Don Quichotte De Flamingo]

Pretty good start from this series, but it will depend on the rest of the cast that will emerge alive.

I checked out again and I noticed he used some sort of spark on it.
