Saki Watanabe is growing up in a world 1000 years into the future, when people have developed powerful psychic abilities, and a supposedly utopian Earth plays host to a terrifying array of nonhuman, genetically engineered creatures. As Saki and her friends work to develop their telekinetic skills, they also uncover the guarded history of just how humanity metamorphosed into the New World in which they live. Originally an award-winning novel by renowned sci-fi/fantasy author Yusuke Kishi, From the New World has been adapted for manga by Toru Oikawa. This grand tale of mankind’s destiny after obtaining superhuman gifts also conveys deep themes about the driving forces in life. In this final volume, Saki and her companion Satoru are on the run and humanity is truly on the brink.
