Shuuya is nursed back to health and he discovers that his saviors are a group of girls with plans to defeat the Program and escape the island that they are stranded on. From the group of girls, there is one girl that emerges that feels that Shuuya is the devil and she wants to cast him into the darkness. The body count rises in this fast paced thriller. Like they say: "A splatterfest filled with paranoia, corruption and bloody lies". The artwork is above average Manga.
