The Drifting Classroom, Vol. 3 The Drifting Classroom, Vol. 3 by Kazuo Umezz
My rating: 8 of 10 stars
Pages : 752
Year : 1974
Genre : Post Apocalpytic
Series : The Drifting Classroom, Vol. 3

This is the third and final novel on the series and it was a very entertaining, depressing journey to say the least. In this volume they are in the future and trying to escape some monsters that appear, they turn on each other like Battle Royal or Lords of the Flies, they kill, they died, they eat (cannibalistically) yet some are trying to do the right thing and finally there is a way to return home... will they do it? Well not going to spoil you but since is a 2000 page manga I am going to do it for you in the end.. I will warn you before

So what's bad about this all series, well is the easy way some stuff is resolved - like an operation, or battle scars or even forgiving your enemy after tens of death's through their hands. BUT this are child, lest we forget, this are kids from 6 to 10/11. Yet they are more prepared at times than grownup's.

So, I promised spoilers.. here you go
In the end, they meet a computer who says they can return in the same place where they went. They must replicate the energy released back in that day. It seems one of the boys brought a dynamite stick to school (yes....). So they try and failed. But after some, intervention they learn how they should yet they decide not to go. The world is going to die. So the vast majority (except one) stay behind. Poor mother...

Spoilers end.
I would advise anyone to read it if they enjoy Lord of Flies stuff
