Seinen Suicide Island by Mori Kouji

I liked the first five chapters, but there seems to be no more Edited Mangas after that. Anyone know why this was dropped? It's a good damn manga.

I'm guessing the group working on it is waiting for the volume scans. I love this manga too, it reminds me of battle royale and lord of the flies.

Lord Of The Flies is exactly right. I was gutted to see that it hasn't progressed (Edited Manga wise) past such an exciting point, but I am patiently awaiting new releases.

It's not bad but I feel like it suffers from some of the things that holyland does too. IE: way too much narration.

 

[sabret00the]

See, the narration is what I love about Holyland. Where as with this, I don't feel like I've had enough chapters, to know if the style fits it.

Ooo a shinny new thread for a manga I had almost completely given up for new scans.

I keep wondering whether or not anyone else is on the island besides the initial group of suicidals. Like maybe an older group of them that was brought in or something else. I think another group of suicidals is more likely if anyone else is there. This could start some really nice conflict between the two groups while the newest group is still struggling with people wanting to kill themselves and what not.

Spoiler

There was a mention of an older group recently, but instead of people who had attempted suicide, it had been criminals (iirc all murderers or something?) The person that the MC meets is one of the few survivors of the events that unfolded. When the MC mentions that there's a new group, he hints that they'll end up similarly, getting invovled in a war between each other.

Death Troll has picked the series up. and just let me say finally! I've missed this series since it was pretty interesting. I hope the future chapters keep me entertained :yem

Read the first chapter and yes, Lord Of The Flies; the novel sprang into mind. It's a nice twist to it though and I like how it's developing atm. The pace is good as well. I'm sure we'll see someone or a small group of people attempting to flee the island because they won't be able to take it anymore (even though it's "suicide island") lol I want to see what happens...

Anyone else thinks the Main Guy likes the girl but the girl likes the leader-looking guy? I like the fact that the main-guy has become a hunter as he is now useful

So it looks like confrontation between our main group and this mysterious second group is definitely going to unfold soon. I'm interested in how the "skilled group" that the fat guy (can't remember his name) mentioned became suicidal. I guarantee this is going to come up sooner or later.

Where have you guys been reading this? I haven't seen scans for this in ages.

Death Troll recently picked the series up. They've released chapters 6 & 7 so far.

I'm almost missed the thread and was about to create a new one.
The Edited Manga are now quite release regularly by illuminati-manga as they do for Mori Kouji previous work Holyland. I must said it is a bit sad this mangaka is not more famous. I've read that Suicide island will start to be release in France at the end of the year and it is well deserved.
The art is good but I especially like the storytelling of Mori Kouji. When he starts to teach us the how to hunt or the different type of bows. It could seems annoying at first but once use to it it becomes natural and give a typical touch to this mangaka stories.

As for the story itself, also I was a bit hesitant at start by the gloomy resume, I was rapidly thrilled into the story.

Do not corrupt. So badass. I like this series a lot. So glad it's getting released more often.

 

[sabret00the]

This is still a great little series. I feel like I've caught up with what's currently available but I'm always left wanting more. Strange thing is, I always feel like I need to be in the right frame of mind to read this but then it's impossible to put down.
