Review Volume 1 (Chapter 1-3)
[CONTAIN SPOILER]


Okay, so...
This comic is kinda thrilling. It gave me some weird sensation while reading it.
The story starts from the introduction of this manga's main character [Mizuki Konno]'s life. She is pretty and also smart, but her friend, Sakura Himezawa is much more prettier and smarter than her. Mizuki and Sakura goes along very well as friend, with two other characters, Haru Ichinomiya and Megumi Iwao.
At the very first page of the story, Konno describes human's social life as fish at a stream. You must swim well to follow the water flows. You have to control your energy to be carried away by the water. If you can't swim, you'll stuck by the situation.

Four of them are very close, and they also in a same class. Sakura Himezawa's status as the prettiest raise Konno's and the others' status too. They live in a perfect world as the highest.
They also often 'bullied' a gloomy classmate, named Morishige Arisa. Konno isn't really a bad person, but however, she believe that discrimination is real because there are difference between a person and another. The world is not kind to those who are stupid and ugly.
She continues to live in her 'perfect world', until that day come.

























Konno and all of her classmate goes to a school field-trip. Everything went normally, until one of her classmate notice that the bus driver is unconscious! The one and only teacher on that bus rushed to check the driver's condition, he's suffering from a disease and now breathless. No one can control the bus, it's shaking uncontrollably.

And... The bus turned to a wrong way, it falls off from the cliff.
It's turning upside down.
Our main heroine, Mizuki Konno,
is fainted. For a while. An hour, or maybe a day?

And when she woke up,
she realizes that her surroundings are dark and quiet. She can't see a thing.
She called Sakura, but she heard no response.
Luckily, she got her handphone. It falls from her pocket, but she can find it easily since it's not far from her.
She turned on her handphone, and when the screen giving her a small light. She realizes something.

Her classmates' dead body is piled up, inside a wrecked bus.
She also found Sakura's dead body.
Is she the one who survived?
Or there are another survivor?

Luckily, when she got out of the bus, she found her bestfriend, Ichinomiya Haru!
And what's more, she found few of her classmate.
Only five girls survive after that bus accident.
She thought that she'll be fine,
But what will happened if they're all confessing a truth that... They're actually hating each other?!
Konno can trust no one. Her life is turning upside down!
Will someone save them from this nightmare?

Yup, this comic is a VEEERRRYYY awesome. I love the mangaka, Suenobu Keiko, because she made a very thrilling yet exciting story. The ending is unexpected, I'm really craving for more manga like this!
Both the story and the art is amazing.

Until now, three volume had been released in Indonesia,
I hope the next volume will be released faster!
