Description: | Japan is a seismically active country, so the occasional trembler isn’t anything that people get too worked up about. They happen and it’s unfortunate, but in general Japan is prepared. But there is one scientist who believes that he has found proof that a recent quake has triggered a cataclysmic event, and that within a year Japan will sink into the sea. Now if he can get anyone to believe him before it’s too late… Also known as Japan Sinks, this is based on the award-winning novel and movie of the same name. |

My point is that those characters are not acting naturally. Nobody is an asshole as big as the main character, and nobody would treat such a person the way we see in the manga. The author is more likely fulfilling some kind of fantasy of an unlikeable hero, personification of his own social anxiety, than following a well thought-out plan for character development.
Thx for the scanlations. I'm not a fan of the gif page though.
It's called "benefit of the doubt", man. We've known the character for less than an hour of his life, and know nothing about his backstory or reasons for why he acts the way he does.
And plus, he's saved probably 5 or more lives so far with his "hunches" alone. Not even counting the fact the restaurant might not have been evacuated in time without him. If I knew someone who could save that many lives based on a hunch, I'd probably be pretty nice to them too.
Just saying.
thx Kisu KMS for this and all previous releases
They just making too much noise man!
Anyhow he's much better than all those Tokyo dwellers that didn't help them out initially, and he risked his arm being squashed. I'd say he's okay all things considered.
The main character is an antisocial asshole who treats everybody like shit. And yet everybody's treating him well and praising his "ability", which is just a hunch. It sickens me.
Very interesting so far.
It has an old school feeling, maybe its the art or that its based on a novel, but it seems like something done on the 70-80s.
It's been a while since I read any disaster theme manga and from the look of it, this is very promising
To be completely honest, the art or the characters aren't jumping out at me, but the story is certainly intriguing.
Following with the hope of seing more.
Following the hell outta this, I can't wait to read more. Perfectly fitting art (which stands out on its own for the sheer level of detail), the story this is based off is fantastic, and there are more than enough chapters for this story to be told without unnecessary trimming.
Kisu KMS, thanks for bringing this to us, I'm in for the long haul.
And those fangs: :3
Ahh.. found it, it's awesome that you're true to your avatar -- a true manga enthusiast indeed.

I was born with the genetic condition of having slightly longer canine teeth than normal. So I also developed a taste for all things vampirical.
But truthfully my first nickname that was given to me in my childhood was "Alucard" thus my affiliation with Vampirism. Off-topic, but I might as well share it.
SHIT... how did you know I have an affiliation to vampirism... noo!!!!
This conversation is amusing.
Let's see, for this weapon... I think I'll make it... "Concentrated, Highly Toxic Flatulence"!!!
I'll need some special ingredients... Umm... ALL RIGHT!!!
First, some rotten eggs, then some stale beer, plenty of beans, and finally, the secret ingredient... GARLIC!!!
knowing pervy, it'll probably just involve a rather oversized enema.
/me follows Pervy to the laboratory, casually looks while Pervy invents the weapon that will kill me.
Please tell Blue that I don't want to take away her job, I am merely offering my help should she or your group need it for this series.
(God! I really hate making a SERIOUS comment in series comment sections!!! But PrionBlank, you can expect my revenge for making me do this in the near future!!! MUA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!)
(Please imagine my evil laughter in a Snidely Whiplash style voice.)
