Man that was awesome. I was reading 200 pages per day.
Basically a school is disappears from our time and it seems it exploded but there are no debris. The families are suffering and one mother is grieving more about her son Sho Takamatsu because when he left home they had just argue and both said that they didn't want to talk to one another ever again.
In the paralell story we've got Sho trying to understand what is happening since only the school remains and all around is just sand. The grownups, as the author says can't handle this changes and quickly died (or are killed) while the children stay behind.
Stuff happens, not going into spoilers room but one interesting it was cool to see the interaction of Sho and his mother in the different timelines.
This is Lord of the Flies up a notch. Children died and some of them very horrible; but it wsa interesting that even at earlier stage (this is a classroom from children from 1st grade to 6th grade so what 12 years old?) and it's interesting he tries to explain the differences between mentalities from the 1st vs the 6th grades. It's not for the faint heart - specially if you can read about children brutality and death. BUT highly advisable as a horror manga series.
