Shounen Manga Book Club discussion

“Simply graduating from such a school affords you status and prestige.”

So few people can see the island floating in the sky that it is largely thought an urban legend. But those who can are eligible to enroll Naraka High School, and a guaranteed government job and life of luxury upon graduating. Momiji Rokudou is about to discover this deal isn’t nearly as good as it sounds.

Aphorism is one of our September - October group reads. Discuss here!

I read this one once a long time ago, up until chapter 50 or so.

It might be fun to re-read it now to see what I think of it.

I've read volume 1. This has a lot of interesting twists on the survival manga template and a very dark, foreboding atmosphere. The odd aspects of Momiji's "character" help break up the tension here and there.

There are a lot of mysteries and certain things will have to be explained sooner rather than later to keep my interest, but so far so good and I'm definitely up for reading more.
