Cage of Eden

This anime is about a plane full of people (high schoolers, teachers, adults, etc) that get on a plane that's heading for Guam but suddenly a disturbance takes place on the plane and the plane ends up going down. Now almost everyone survives the crash and later learns that they've landed on an island somewhere. The pilots eventually calm everyone down by saying that when they repair the radio they will be able to call for help. But then later realize that no help is coming at all to save them.

Once realization hit that no one is coming to rescue them most of the majority of people on the plane leave and explore the island. They come to find that this island is nowhere on the map and that its inhabitants consists of weird and even deadly plants, prehistoric dinosaurs and other freakish creatures. But, with no help coming and their food and supplies running low they had no choice but to go deeper into the island's depths and try to find a way off that island and get home.This anime reminds me a lot of the show Lost because you end up getting more questions than answers.

When everyone starts exploring they,eventually, start to become different groups and split into different directions on the island.The main character seems to be Akira a high school boy that just like the rest of his classmates was sitting happily in plane while playing with his friends while waiting to go home till all of this chaos happened. Akira becomes the leader of one of these groups because he always had a plan, can make the final decision and motivate his people to do it, even when he himself becomes overwhelmed by their unexpected situation.

I kind of get why they called this anime the Cage of Eden but what I don't get is the Eden part, isn't Eden supposed to be this great perfect place that everyone could live happily in? This place doesn't sound anything like its supposed to be and actually sounds like the opposite.Well with the title aside I really like this manga and their is only the manga,unfortunately, their is no anime to watch out their but the manga is complete so you guys won't have to worry about any cliffies.I really enjoyed the thrill and adventure that took place in this story but considered how so many mysteries came up while reading it made me want to pull my hair out. But, nevertheless, it was still an enjoyable read.
