Limit, Cilt 2
Mizuki ve arkadaşları, sınıfça çıktıkları bir gezi sırasında ciddi bir trafik kazası geçirdiler ve öğrencilerden büyük kısmı öldü. Geride sadece 5 kişi kaldı ve onlar da hem yaralı hem de medeniyetten uzakta, tüm zorluklara rağmen hayata tutunmaya çalışıyorlar. Bütün bunlar yetmezmiş gibi gruptakilerin bir kısmı da birbirlerinden nefret ediyor ve bir yandan hayatta kalmak için çabalarken bir yandan da diğerleri üzerinde kendi tahakkümlerini kurma çabasındalar.
Mizuki hayli zor bir durumda zira bu cehennemden kurtulması, çok kısa bir süre önce burun kıvırarak baktığı bazı arkadaşlarının yardımlarına bağlı. Vahşi doğada güçlü olanlar ayakta kalacak ve Mizuki de grubun fiziksel güç sahibi üyelerinden biri değil. Mizuki’nin hayatta kalabilmesi, kendisinden nefret eden üç kişinin güvenini kazanabilmesine bağlı ve bu güveni kazanması hiç de kolay olmayacak!
Limit, bir grup gencin yaşadığı zorlu hayatta kalma mücadelesinin hikâyesi!

February 15, 2013
What a deep series all ready! Bus crashes in mountainous region. Japanese school bus -full of students going to a crappy camp. Deep ravine-with no way out. Few survive though. They cannot find a way up and out. No one looking for them yet.

Volume 2 brings back more of the Heathers mentality in this volume and leaves us with a rather nice cliffhanger that will bring in some interesting dynamics. I'd splurge the details, but y'know- spoilers. There will be some slight spoilers in this, but they're ones that happen early in the volume. If you want spoiler free opinion, then I will say that I recommend the second volume.
What I found interesting in this volume is that we're given more insight to the characters. Depth is given and appearances are somewhat skewed. I knew that we'd see different sides to every girl and that we'd get warts, but it's still fairly intriguing to see how the series is getting developed.
The previous volume ended with two of our lead females duking it out over who would be the slave and hence, the one who is starved to death. The end result is that one is made into a slave and there is some rekindling of friendships, although if the first volume proved anything it's that friendships are fragile things in this world. Outside elements and new scenarios, especially like the one brought in at the end of the volume, can shatter bonds instantly.
I rather liked that we're shown more of the side character of Usui. In the first volume she was little more than a hanger-on for the increasingly rat house crazy Morishige, but here we're given more insight into the character. Break the Cutie is still a pretty prevalent trope in this world, so don't expect her spotlight to come without some pretty severe consequences.
It really is interesting to see how all of the characters react to one another and to their situation. This volume was pretty cool and I'm actually starting to feel a little empathy for Morishige. She got a fairly raw deal in the outside world, so her descent into madness in the first volume is fairly understandable. If she makes it out of the manga alive, I wonder what her effect her actions will have on her when she rejoins society. Making two girls fight over food with the potential of immediate death isn't something that would be smiled upon in "civilized" society.
Overall I still heavily recommend this manga. It's pretty fun and the artwork is really well done, so fans of Life will absolutely love this series.

Must admit that I admire how Keiko Suenobu developed the characters here in The Limit series. Readers were not able to root for the main character, Mizuki Konno, because she's not all good, yet unable to hate the once-thought-devilish girl, Arisha Morishige, because she's not all bad. When we thought Chikage Usui is the weakest among the girls, she suddenly surprised the others by beating them out in their own game. Can't wait to read the next volume!

Not as awesome as the first volume, unfortunately. But still a lot of crazy bitching going around. I love all of the psychological aspects of Suenobu's works. It is a bit overwhelming at times, but they're classic.

Loving this series seriously. Seems to be loosely based on William Golding's lord of the flies but with school girls instead of school boys. I think they are going to end up eating the one with the sore foot.

J’ai lu le premier tome au moment de sa sortie et j’étais très hypé par ce nouveau titre. J’avais adoré ma lecture, cette histoire de survie en pleine montagne avec une ambiance bien anxiogène, bien pesante, des survivantes qui ne se supportent et dont certaines en ont harcelés d’autres, bref c’était vraiment beaucoup trop chouette. Alors forcément, j’étais impatiente de découvrir la suite de cette histoire avec ce second tome. Il est clairement dans la lignée du précédent. C’était absolument génial à lire et j’ai encore plus hâte de lire la suite maintenant!
Dans ce second tome, après l’accident de car tragique qui a coûté la vie à presque toute leur classe, Konno et ses camarades se sont retrouvées seules, prisonnières d’un ravin, et sans aucune ressource. Et comme si leur situation n’était pas assez difficile comme ça, Morishige, la souffre-douleur de la classe, s’est emparée de la seule arme disponible et l’utilise pour asseoir sa domination et manipuler les autres survivantes. Si elle veut espérer s’en sortir, Konno va devoir se battre, et peut-être trouver une nouvelle alliée…
On reprend là où le premier tome s’est terminé. Dès les premières c’est déjà hyper intense pour le coup. Ce que j’aime avec ce manga c’est qu’au final on ne s’ennuie pas une seule seconde. Il se passe toujours quelque chose dans cette histoire. J’ai beaucoup aimé Kamiya, heureusement qu’elle a appris un tas de choses auprès de son grand-père niveau survie parce qu’elles auraient vraiment du mal à s’en sortir je pense.. Usui m’a tellement mais tellement fait mal au coeur. La pauvre j’avais tant envie de lui faire un câlin, elle m’a fait trop de peine et la voir penser tout ça d’elle, vraiment ça m’a fait beaucoup trop de peine. J’espère qu’il ne lui arrivera rien par la suite, ça me rendrais vraiment trop triste. Par contre la fin me plaît énormément, j’ai très hâte de voir la suite parce que ça risque de relancer toute l’histoire en tout cas.
Cette ambiance mais qu’est ce que je l’aime! C’est hyper pesant, angoissant, anxiogène, c’est passionnant à lire cette histoire. J’adore ce genre d’ambiance quand je lis un manga ou un livre. C’est tellement pesant qu’on la ressent clairement, un peu comme si on faisait parti de l’histoire nous aussi. Je suis tellement impatiente de découvrir la suite de l’histoire, vivement le prochain tome!

I may have been mistaken in calling Limit a game of death series. With the way the first volume ended, with its ad hoc social hierarchy forming among the girls, I assumed it was going to lead to more direct conflict among them. So far, that hasn't really happened, and it's really more of a straight-up survival story. And that's okay. Without adequate supplies or training, things like hunger, shelter, and even minor injuries can become life-or-death situations.
There are a few other things at play here, too. From the girls' own psychological elements (feelings of superiority/inadequacy, etc.), to the improbable series of events that leads to delays in a search party being sent out, there is enough here to spice things up a little. That said, a good chunk of volume two does vacillate between melodrama the mundane tasks of hunting and gathering. I'm not sure exactly how long I can keep suspending my disbelief that these girls haven't been found yet, but I'll give this at least one more volume.

Me gusta muchísimo la caracterización de las protagonistas, con sus distintas problemáticas y motivaciones. La protagonista principal está teniendo un gran desempeño en cuanto al análisis emocional de quienes la rodean; no se limita a lo que las personas dicen, sino que observa lo que piensan y sienten. Ese enfoque me encanta, porque sus discursos están más orientados al sentido humano que al sentido común. Creo que ese es otro de los grandes aciertos de la obra: a veces, actuar desde la empatía y la humanidad implica tomar decisiones menos lógicas, pero que son necesarias por el bien de nuestras amigas y amigos, por nuestras comunidades. Por último, todo lo relacionado con la agencia puede sentirse forzado en un principio, pero, conociendo tantos casos similares en la vida real, termina siendo tristemente verosímil. Es una lástima que la sociedad funcione así… y que esta historia lo refleje tan bien.

This was a pretty good sequel, it really developed the characters more, and thankfully we have moved on enough in time that people are getting suspicious about not hearing from the bus driver/students/teacher. At the same time, the pace is slow enough to really get details of things happening to all the girls.

En este segundo tomo el manga ha tomado personalidad propia y ha relajado la violencia que parecía que iba a tener el primer volumen para centrarse en las relaciones de los personajes y su supervivencia (y en el bullying).

Empieza a haber más tensión entre las supervivientes. Tienen que enfrentarse a buscar alimento, a la niebla y alguien más que merodea cerca.
También se suman pensamientos intrusivos y cómo eso nos destruye más que la realidad.

This volume gives me some hope; the characters may be in a self-discovery mode that leads to a positive outcome. However, I emphasize may.

~3.5-4/5

At this point, I’m really glad that I picked this up. Because this is a pleasantly surprisingly good read so far.
This series is really showing the darker sides of humans, the brutal, hidden sides that only come out in extreme situations. Like this one, where a group is stranded, alone, with no way to contact the outside world, most of their classmates dead. This is definitely an extreme situation, and this is a group mixed of very different, clashing people.
I am starting to really like Konno, which I am surprised by. She notices what’s right and wrong, she has a good sense of it, and since she’s been thrown so out of her follower routine, she’s starting to use that judgment actively. And I like that. I like watching her struggle with it and come to a conclusion, and I like being in her head as she reflects on what others are doing, why they’re doing it, and why she thinks they’re wrong.
Then there’s everyone else. Kamiya is showing other sides of herself, and I’m not sure what I think of her quite yet. I suspect a big confrontation will happen with her soon, and I look forward to that. Haru and Konno seemed to have made up, and I’m intrigued by what will happen with her next. I don’t like Morishige, the violent, power-hungry one, but I look forward to finding out more about her. Usui, the one who’s hurt, got some reflection time, and we’re seeing a much darker, hurt part of her that isn’t very good.
We got a glimpse of what the school and bus company are doing, whether they know if the bus crashed or not, and I hope there’s more of that in the next volume. I like seeing the other side of things, knowing what’s going on with everyone, no matter how horrible it is. There was also an exciting cliffhanger at the end of this volume, and I really look forward to seeing where it goes next.
I love the psychological aspects to this series so far, the darker parts of humans, even though it’s so horrible sometimes. I love the art, too. It’s so pretty, and detailed, and well done. The violence and the hurt and the graphic details are portrayed so well. It’s really nice to look at, and I am really happy that I picked this up.

The roller coaster ride continues with the limit two as some more is revealed about the cast, and friendship are rekindled and broken. The art remains solid, and expressive.
