Yoshiaki Maeda has been falsely accused and detained, along with delinquents from all over the Kanto region, in the juvenile correctional facility, Shouran Institute. Yoshiaki is as typical as a boy can get, so when he finds himself living in this violence-ridden prison, he can’t think of anything worse. His cellmates, Iwakura, Yamanoi, and Yoshioka, are a cunning crew and soon Yoshiaki finds himself pulled into a feud going on in the prison.

Read the full take
Fort of Apocalypse begins by trapping its protagonist in an unforgiving place. A falsely accused boy is detained in a juvenile correctional facility, where rival factions and pecking orders quickly tighten around him. The setup is tense and clear, and an unexpected disruption from outside the walls raises the stakes.The prison setting is the series' strongest asset. Confined spaces, suspicious alliances and a constant sense of threat give the survival scenes a sharp edge. The shift from institutional drama to outbreak thriller is handled with clear momentum.The drawbacks are the violence and the cast. The series is relentless in its brutality, which some readers will find exhausting, and the larger group of inmates can blur into a single mass. Fans of tense survival stories will find much to enjoy. Those wanting restraint or deeper individual arcs may find it harder going, though the pace keeps the reading gripping.
