Akira Sengoku is an ordinary junior high student returning from a school trip when his life descends into a waking nightmare. Following a sudden and violent plane crash, Akira wakes up on a jungle island that should not exist. This is no tropical paradise; the landscape is inhabited by terrifying, prehistoric animals that were thought to have been extinct for millions of years. As the survivors gather, the realization sets in that the island follows the law of the jungle, and they are at the bottom of the food chain.

Navigating through dense foliage and deadly predators, Akira must lead a fractured group of classmates and strangers. However, the monsters in the shadows aren't the only threat. As fear and hunger set in, the social hierarchy among the survivors collapses, leading to betrayal, violence, and the emergence of dark psychological impulses. Every chapter reveals new layers of the island's mystery: why are these extinct creatures here, and what was the true purpose of their flight? Cage of Eden is a brutal exploration of the human will to survive against impossible odds.
