Description: Chakuro is the 14-year-old archivist of the Mud Whale, a nigh-utopian island that floats across the surface of an endless sea of sand. Nine in ten of the inhabitants of the Mud Whale have been blessed and cursed with the ability to use thymia, special powers that doom them to an early death.

Chakuro and his friends have stumbled across other islands, but they have never met, seen, or even heard of a human who wasn't from their own. One day, Chakuro visits an island as large as the Mud Whale and meets a girl who will change his destiny.

New chapters yay~

Anything scanlated by Damn-Feels makes me want to give it a shot thanks to the aesthetics alone, honestly.

the premise is great, the start is nice but the following two chapters are kinda forced (why would they release the "rebels" just when someone from the outside appeared, that's super stupid)

They'd finished serving their time. Their release just happened to coincide with Lykos being carried along with them.

the art is great, although the faces moves from awesome to really copy paste ones.

Welcome to shojo manga. (I, for one, think it's endearing though.)

the guard of the chief looked super young to have 39 y.o

so the other countries will be left without meat, viz can't be used oversea, such as in italy, same happened for rwby.

 

Spoiler

 

Italy release variant cover. Italian release is coming out before the english one.

This has some very strong Nausicaa vibes.

I love it.

Was first 5 chapters DMCA'ed?

No. The first scanlator took them off when Viz licensed this, for understandable reasons. Batoto doesn't seem to have been DMCA'ed concerning this series, so consider chapter 6+ an experiment to see how long this lasts.

Was first 5 chapters DMCA'ed?

North American license announced by Viz.  One Snowshoe offerings are being withdrawn. 

 

Please read the official versions as they are released OR purchase the Japanese versions (from which the author should make more money).

Wow!  Big start.  Hope it can follow through.  

So often with this kind of thing the questions are more interesting than the answers, and so they sag a bit later on.  But it's quite something so far.

Incredible art, worldbuilding, and pacing. I haven't been this excited for a series since the first volume of Mahou Tsukai no Yome.

 

Anyone else think that the clothing and vehicle designs are very similar to Nausicaa?

No! Damn... freaking chapter 4. Just started this today, I was all mellow, enjoying the world building until i started screaming at my screen... freak, 4 chapters in and already I'm emotional invested in the most if not all character...

I love this. A lot.

this is good! art is nice, too. main character is very cute.

This is such a fascinating story with a lore of it own. Can't wait for more releases and I'm going to buy the Japanese volumes of this series XD
