Here's the situation: A girl you like has been dragged underwater by a giant alligator-whale thing. By the time you dive down there and pull it's whiskers off to save her, she's passed out from no air, her lungs are full of water, and she's got some minor bite marks since this alligator thing decided it didn't want to bite too hard. You drag her to shore. You have a decision, stop the minor bleeding, or perform CPR and try and get her breathing again. What do you do?

"Oh man, she's bleeding and she's not breathing! Should I try and stop the bleeding or do CPR???!?"

Yup. Our main character actually had to ASK himself that question. That just about sums up how miserable our main character is. Anyway, on to the review.

STORY - 6: As far as the story goes, I really liked the premise. Think Lost, but with dinosaurs. Does that sound kinda cool? Hell yea. Is it executed well? Of course it isn't. In Lost, the plane crashes, everyone's injured, people are dead, everyone's upset and panicking and then people take control and everyone calms down and tries to salvage the situation. That's a good representation of what should happen. In this... we aren't so lucky. Here, we have the typical anime/manga over reactions.

Small spoiler: The pilot says "oh hey, sorry, but the radio is actually broken. Told ya guys it wasn't to avoid a panic"... and then he immediately gets stabbed with a knife. But wait, nobody actually SAW who stabbed the pilot, despite everyone looking at the pilot.

Another small spoiler: A ten-year-old girl has taken over as the leader of a large group of adults. A group of adults who are kidnapping women in order to have sex with them. Why is this ten year old girl in charge? Why is she condoning this? No idea, I stopped reading at this point.

The point to take away from this is that it was a very cool concept that has had an absolutely terrible execution. The concept scores an 8/10 from me, the actual plot gets like a 4.

ART - The art is fair. Nothing groundbreaking, but it's not garbage. There is quite a bit of boob and panty shots though, so if you're in need ot panty shots from girls on a deserted island, this is for you.

Characters - There isn't much to say here. The characters are just poorly designed, and they suffer even more from the over dramatization of the "panic" that has taken over the survivors. The Main Character, as I've shown at the top of this review, is an idiot. He's also consistently getting himself and his group into terrible situations. Get kidnapped and strung up over a cliff? Check. Get entire group to consume poisonous berries that cause immediate severe hemorrhaging? Check. Charge a wolf as large as a truck because you want to jump on it's mouth like you would an aligator? Check. He's just an imbecile. The only redeeming character i've seen so far is the "Nerd" with his laptop.

(side rant: that laptop, let's talk about that. As of chapter 21, it has been in constant use without getting a charge, has been trampled on by giant wild animals, and has been dropped in the ocean. I don't know what brand it is, or who made it, but i want one).

Enjoyment - Honestly? I'm sure some people will enjoy this. If you don't want to nitpick at everything, and are alright with constant deus ex machina saving the day, you might love this.

Overall? I'd give this a 5. Nothing particularly terrible about it, but I think the author was more concerned with looking up the scientific names of these animals and giving information about them to the reader, than he was about developing his characters and his plot.
