From the New World	comment	A millennium from now, in Japan, there exists a utopia. Saki Watanabe lives in an idyllic village barred from the outside world. Her world is ruled by the people who possess the "gods' power" of psychic abilities. After finally obtaining her own powers, Saki enters the Zenjin Academy to train along with five other children: Satoru Asahina, Maria Akizuki, Mamoru Itou, Shun Aonuma, and Reiko Amano.Not all is as it seems, however. In this utopian village, strange rumors about a monstrous cat that abducts children circulate, and students are said to disappear from the academy. The world and its history are much darker than they appear and humanity is on the verge of collapse.From the New World (æ–°ä¸–ç•Œã‚ˆã‚Š Shin Sekai Yori) is a Japanese science fiction novel by YÅ«suke Kishi and released on January 23, 2008. It was adapted into a 25-episode anime television series by A-1 Pictures that aired from September 2012 to March 2013. The anime has been picked up for streaming and home video release in North America by Sentai Filmworks, and is available on Crunchyroll as well. There is also a manga adaptation that was serialized in Kodansha's Bessatsu Shounen Magazine from May 2012 until June 2014 and is now licensed by Vertical. The manga differs considerably from both the anime and the original novel in plot and characterization.It is unknown if/when the original novel will be officially translated. Meanwhile, an English fan-translation (completed in 2016) can be found here.

From the New World / int_108c268e	type	Hotter and Sexier
From the New World / int_108c268e	comment	Hotter and Sexier: The manga adaptation, which is only loosely based on the novel, has much more fanservice-y clothing designs for the girls and a number of gratuitious ecchi scenes between Saki and Maria (with Reiko joining in as well in the first chapter and in a dream sequence), as well as one between Saki and Canon Foreigner Haruka. It also completely erases the canon homosexual relationship between Satoru and Shun. Inverted when you consider the anime is Tamer and Chaster than the original novel, which depicted sex scenes fairly graphically. In the novel there's mention of oral sex between two boys and Saki mentions that at the age of 12 she already had experience sexually pleasuring another girl (in a scene where she's trying to figure out how to pleasure Satoru, no less). That being said, it's not done for the sake of fanservice, and is described in an almost clinical manner.

Averted for Saki and Satoru in the novel given that Saki is telling the story and mentions talking with Satoru.

Japan has been reduced to a fraction of its population and what is left has psychic powers. In this society, people are encouraged into having plenty of sex to keep their stress levels low, and in order to improve everyone's chances, teenagers are encouraged into trying same-sex relationship, whereas relationships between people of the opposite sex are forbidden until later in life, prompting an entire society of bisexuals. There are though people who are exclusively attracted to one gender or one person in the setting.

Satoru realizes that General Kiroumaru might receive orders from the Ethics Committee to disappear him and Saki, prompting him to make a break for it in the middle of the night. He's right... except that Kiroumaru has no intention of following their orders, and helps them return to civilization.

From the New World / int_3d4d3dc9	type	Humans Are Bastards
From the New World / int_3d4d3dc9	comment	Humans Are Bastards: A major theme of the story. Humans are presented as an extremely violent species, often using oppression and cruelty to get their way, or for no reason at all. They're even worse with Power, if only due to how easy Power makes everything. As such, Kamisu 66 is centered around controlling their violent impulses, as human nature alone can destroy the world again. In the novel it's very heavily implied that the two creatures mankind is most afraid of, ogres and karma demons, are the result of a kind of genetic/evolutionary backlash against suppressing violent instincts - the emergence of ogres and karma demons turns out to be tied to traumatic events their parents experienced, by the way of unconscious, minor power leakage that influences genetics.

To make matters worse, many, many monster rat colonies have apparently been destroyed, with some being spared (including the Giant Hornets) only due to Saki's intervention. Furthermore, Squealer's motivations, as well as his trial, leave the audience wondering just who the villain really was. Still, Saki and Satoru are hopeful for the future.

Squealer claims they did it because the queen was suffering from mental illness, as well as because they felt their rights as sentient beings weren't being respected, but in practice it's mainly to organize a coup. This procedure changes the monster rat queens from occasionally violent, tyrannical despots to mindless baby-factories which are treated as livestock. Regardless of rationale, Saki and Satoru are reasonably freaked-out by this revelation, especially since the queen is the monster rats' own mother.

Additionally, all humans are conditioned to associate harming another human with their powers with intense pain — killing another human triggers such intense feedback that it is guaranteed to cause a lethal stroke, with a character experiencing extreme dizziness and pain from destroying even a hologram of a human being.

From the New World / int_7025ca2d	type	No Heterosexual Sex Allowed
From the New World / int_7025ca2d	comment	No Heterosexual Sex Allowed: It appears that although heterosexual crushes are perfectly commonplace, teenagers are expected not to act on them, and teens who don't take a same-sex partner are seen as strange. Only after a ceremonial pairing for schoolwork are they allowed to pursue a heterosexual relationship, and most of the homosexual ones are apparently quickly dropped. In the novel Saki explains that intimate homosexual relationships are encouraged in adolescents, with only platonic relationships being approved for those of the opposite sex until a certain age. Heterosexual sexual intercourse between adolescents, if discovered, would warrant expulsion of the individuals. It makes sense when you consider their society is one that promotes using sex as a form of stress relief even among children and also is highly regulatory of said children; it wouldn't be prudent for 12-year-old kids to already be having kids of their own. Actually, to be really specific, contact between people of different sex is still permitted. The only thing that's truly forbidden is penetrative intercourse between a boy and a girl. In the novel, schools are stated to go so far as to perform annual virginity checks on female students. If failed, the girl "disappears." The double standard exists presumably because there's no way to check male students.

From the New World / int_80a247a9	comment	Breather Episode: Largely averted. Although it could be said that events themselves move slowly, especially in the beginning, despite there being so much going on all the timenote from the children fearing the trickster cat, learning the grim truth about the past and present, and meeting the monster rats—because of the constant deluge of Break the Cutie in the midst of these events, and because of a large part of the series overall focuses on the children's perception of the world shattering (i.e., the first two arcs), there's nary a moment truly given to the audience to breathe up to that point. In comparison, it's as Saki grows older that we're treated to Breather Moments, a particularly apparent one being Saki's flashback to her childhood with Maria in episode 16. These moments are usually harshly utilized to instigate sudden Mood Whiplash, though, like during the festival two episodes, and another Time Skip, later.

From the New World / int_953c92eb	comment	Beware the Superman: In the past ages, the psychics who ruled the slave empires were generally monstrous tyrants. One emperor "sacrificed" the first hundred humans to stop applauding his ascension, essentially For the Evulz. This is largely the justification for the pseudo-religious social engineering in Kamisu 66. The story treats humanity as an inherently violent species, which only gets worse due to how easily Power users can use it for violence. They are considered so dangerous that, after the fall of the slave empires & raider groups, the remaining powered population decided to genetically alter themselves to make killing humans impossible. Finally, it turns out that the Kamisu 66 is a slave empire in its own right, and has genetically engineered nonpsychic humans into monster rats to ensure the psychic "gods'" power over them. Nonpsychic throwbacks among the "human" caste are killed, as are psychics who don't live up to the requirements of Kamisu 66's society. The Death of Shame and the Society of Love are a means of preventing fratricidal warfare among psychics.

Shun is the one who reads the karma demon story for the class early in the series. He turns into one, in the end. For that matter, Maria is the one who reads the ogre story. She is directly involved in the rise of an ogre-like threat to the human population. As if the above wasn't bad enough, in episode 15 we learn that, after Squealer overthrew the queen, he lobotomized her and kept her solely for breeding offspring. This is incredibly terrifying, especially if you keep Tomiko's warnings and Saki's fears in mind. The order of arrangement in the promotional poster of the anime could be considered an early subtle one for those who haven't been or aren't able to read the novels.

This leads to Maria giving birth to a child. After presumably killing them both, Squealer then raises that child to be a weapon against humanity, making a revolt possible. This rebellion gets Hiromi (the head of the Board of Education) killed. As kids, Saki and Satoru save the Robber Fly colony from extinction while trying to get back to their friends. Two years later two of these friends, Maria and Mamoru, run away and take shelter with the growing Robber Fly colony... who kill both of them and use their child to all but flatten Saki and Satoru's entire society.

From the New World / int_eeaadd10	comment	From the Latin "Intro Ducere": In episode 25 Saki and Satoru are discussing the monster rats' origin, erroneously interpreting a similarity between naked mole rats' scientific name (heterocephalus glaber) and human beings' scientific name (homo sapiens). Although Greek element "hetero" (meaning different or other) in heterocephalus is the opposite of Greek element "homos" (meaning same), this element is not the one used in "homo sapiens", which comes from Latin element "homo" (meaning human). YMMV on this one because it could be believable that the scientists who originally created that name may have intended it as a sort of joke, recognizing the similarity though they knew it to be a false cognate.
