#IReadsYou Review: THE DRIFTING CLASSROOM Volume 3

THE DRIFTING CLASSROOM: PERFECT EDITION, VOL. 3
VIZ MEDIA – @VIZMedia

[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]

MANGAKA: Kazuo Umezz
TRANSLATION: Sheldon Drzka
ENGLISH ADAPTATION: Molly Danzer
LETTERING: Evan Waldinger
EDITOR: Joel Enos
ISBN: 978-1-9747-0939-7; hardcover (June 2020); Rated “M” for “Mature”
768pp, B&W, $34.99 U.S., $46.99 CAN, £28.00 UK

The Drifting Classroom is the legendary shonen manga from creator, Kazuo Umezz.  Many manga creators, fans, and critics consider Umezz to be the most influential horror manga artist ever.  Starting in October 2019, VIZ began publishing a new, three-volume English language edition of The Drifting Classroom in its “perfect edition” format.  According to VIZ, The Drifting Classroom: Perfect Edition features an all-new translation, new content, and revised story elements – all gathered in a deluxe hardcover format.  The original eleven graphic novels in The Drifting Classroom series are collected in three hardcover omnibus books, each with a trim size of 5 3/4  x 8 1/4.

The Drifting Classroom focuses on sixth-grader Sho Takamatsu.  One morning, Sho's school, Yamato Elementary School, is apparently struck by the tremors of an earthquake.  People near Yamato discover that the school has disappeared after the earthquake; at first, they think the school was destroyed in an explosion.  However, Sho, the teachers, the students of Yamato Elementary, and a visiting pre-school child (Yuichi “Yu” Onodo) emerge from the school to discover that Yamato Elementary is now surrounded by what seems like an endless wasteland of sand.  They come to believe that in the aftermath of the massive earthquake, the school has been transported to the future.

As The Drifting Classroom: Perfect Edition, Vol. 3 (Chapters 30 to 42) opens, the surviving children are in Tokyo Station, the subway line beneath the ruins of Tokyo.  There, they learn the horrible truth about what happened to civilization and an even more horrible reality – the so-called “future humans.”

Soon, Sho and his schoolmates return to Yamato, but the group divides into two.  There are the students that follow Sho, and the students that follow the increasingly belligerent Otomo, who blames Sho for causing the event that catapulted them into the future.  The kids wage pitched battles, but will they come together to face multiple existential outside threats?

Later, the kids discover a future “Paradise” from the past, but the youngsters fall out among themselves, which leads to a series of horrible events.  Returning to the school, they learn that at least some of them may be able to return to the present day – with the help of Sho's mother, Emiko Takamatsu.  But will everything fall into place or will the children be stuck in the dark future?

THE LOWDOWN:  I have previously called The Drifting Classroom manga a mixture of horror and science fiction.  The science fiction side of the narrative follows the adventures of a group of elementary school students trapped in what resembles a post-apocalyptic world.  The horror element focuses on the students as they are engaged in constant brutal conflict that gradually, inevitably shrinks the population that was originally 862 humans.

The Drifting Classroom: Perfect Edition Volume 3 is the final volume of this “Perfect Edition” reprint series.  The chapters contained within also reveal another side of this manga.  The Drifting Classroom can also be described as a juvenile science fiction and fantasy adventure, filled with both wonders and horrors.  The truth is that after 2000+ pages of this narrative, Kazuo Umezz is as energetic as ever.  His imagination is a wellspring of wild ideas, weird creatures, and inventive twists of time and space.  Yes, many of the humans reveal themselves to be relentlessly savage and senselessly barbaric, but, at the end, Umezz brings time and space together for an unforgettable ending that offers hope – maybe even coming close to assuring it.

The translation by Sheldon Drzka and the English adaptation by Molly Danzer perfectly capture the hopefully sentiments and the gory details.  Evan Waldinger's lettering gives the dialogue and action a machine gun-like rhythm that carries the readers at a breakneck pace across the book from beginning to surprise ending.

I highly recommended the two previous volumes of The Drifting Classroom: Perfect Edition to fans of horror manga and to fans of classic manga series.  I give the third volume my highest recommendation because it is a must-read for fans of great manga.

POSSIBLE AUDIENCE:  The serious manga reader – interested in the past as well as in the present and future of the medium – will want to read the VIZ Signature release of The Drifting Classroom: Perfect Edition.

#IReadsYou Review: YONA OF THE DAWN Volume 21

YONA OF THE DAWN, VOL. 21
VIZ MEDIA – @VIZMedia

MANGAKA: Mizuho Kusanagi
TRANSLATION: JN Productions
ENGLISH ADAPTATION: Ysabet Reinhardt MacFarlane
LETTERS: Lys Blakeslee
EDITOR: Amy Yu
ISBN: 978-1-4215-9381-4; paperback (December 2019); Rated “T” for “Teen”
192pp, B&W, $9.99 U.S., $12.99 CAN, £6.99 UK

Yona of the Dawn is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Mizuho Kusanagi.  It has been serialized in Hakusensha's shojo manga magazine, Hana to Yume, since August 2009.  VIZ Media has been publishing an English-language edition of the manga as a paperback graphic novel series since August 2016 under its “Shojo Beat” imprint.

Yona of the Dawn focuses on the only princess in the Kingdom of Kohka, Yona.  She lives an ideal life, and her father, King Il, dotes on her.  Her faithful guard, Son Hak of the Wind Tribe, protects her.  Yona even cherishes the time spent with the man she loves, her cousin, Lord Su-won of the Sky Tribe.  However, everything changes for Princess Yona on her 16th birthday when the king is killed, and Hak is blamed.  Soon, Yona is on the run with Hak, but she is determined to reclaim her throne.  To do so, she begins a journey to find the Four Dragon Warriors.

As Yona of the Dawn, Vol. 21 (Chapter 118 to 123) opens, King Su-Won continues his advance into the rival nation of Sei.  Yona and Princess Riri of the Water Tribe were betrayed and became prisoners of Sei, working as slave labor on one of two forts being built along Sei's border with Kohka.  After their devastating siege of Lord Hotsuma's fort, Su-Won and company move on to Lord Kishibi's fort after not finding either princess at Hotsuma.

But Yona and Princess Riri have been separated, and Yona is alone and injured in a nearby forest.  Meanwhile, Lord Kishibi prepares to execute Riri!

[This volume includes a bonus chapter, “From Good Morning to Good Night.”]

THE LOWDOWN:  I find the Yona of the Dawn manga to be a hugely-enjoyable historical shojo romance manga, which is one of my favorite genres of manga.  I also like that it uses elements of Chinese history and mythology.

Yona of the Dawn Graphic Novel Volume 21 is a typically fantastic entry in this series.  In the case of this series, I think being “typically fantastic” is just “Jim Dandy!”  Seriously, despite the action of violent battle, creator Mizuho Kusanagi takes time to delve into the relationships between her core players.  Kusanagi also takes some time to further develop the steadily growing relationship between Hak and Yona.  It's intense and hot!  Let's keep reading, dear readers.

I READS YOU RECOMMENDS:  Fans of historical romantic adventure will want to try the “Shojo Beat” title, Yona of the Dawn.
