Synopsis

Year 2493. The Land ones, after having wiped a great climatic catastrophe, had of another choice to only take refuge under ground to survive. Only a handle of scientists, “Exodus Creators”, managed to leave the Earth on board spaceships with an aim of finding a planet hospital. Returned bredouilles of their mission, those now project to turn over on their planet of origin, where they are not welcome…

Hiyoko, young Japanese woman a 16 year old, rather soft and timid, carried out an about normal life thus, until the day when it crosses the way of Dune in a forest, entirely naked, which is in fact one of these Exodus Creators… Its life is about to rock, more especially as the Moon now threatens to be crushed on the Earth!

Influences

Yōichi Kadoi being in the beginning an assistant of Kazushi Hagiwara in its work worship Bastard!!, the influences which its manga had on Exodus Creators are rather perceptible.

the drawing resembles a little that of Kazushi Hagiwara at its beginnings, though a little more advanced.
Just like Dark Schneider, the hero likes to be naked, and can change clothing without same at will as one knows from where they come.
