The Island of Giant Insects (Kyochuu Rettou) is a horror survival manga with story by Fujimi Yasutaka and art by RED ICE, serialized from 2014 to 2019; it ran in Champion Cross from 2014 to 2018, then moving to Manga Cross for the rest of its run. In 2019, an anime adaptation was produced by Passione and directed by Takeo Takahashi and Naoyuki Tatsuwa.After an airplane crash during a school trip, Oribe Mutsumi and her classmates were stranded on a seemingly deserted island. Mutsumi found the other survivors, and used her wilderness knowledge to help them. She expects that they will be rescued in about three days, which doesn't seem so long to endure. However, she didn't account for the fact that the island is populated with gigantic killer insects. Her knowledge of butterflies, wasps, and more may be the only thing that will help any of her classmates survive to be rescued!A sequel series called Dai Kyochuu Rettou was started in 2019, showing Oribe and her allies' escapades after escaping the original island. | |

Rape as Drama | |
| The Island of Giant Insects (Manga) / int_12dd1d4c | comment |
Rape as Drama: Kamijo forces Suzuki Kayo to give him a blowjob and have sex by offering to spare her after they return to the mainland — planning to have his yakuza buddies kill Mutsumi and Misuzu. Immediately afterwards, they are raped by giant botflies, impregnated with larvae, and eaten alive from the inside-out. | |

Pushed at the Monster: The majority of the survivors (bar the main characters) do this on a frequent basis just to save their own skin. Long story short, if these survivors don't like you, your chances of survival have dramatically dropped. | |

Artistic License – Biology | |
| The Island of Giant Insects (Manga) / int_18aff462 | comment |
Artistic License – Biology: Mostly averted. As described in Shown Their Work down below, all of the insects and other creatures are all pretty accurate in behavior and species. The most obvious exception, of course, is the GIANT size of the bugs, the "smallest" being about the size of a hand (the giant ticks) to downright humongous (the giant centipedes). That, and the fact that all of them, even the herbivores, are now man-eating predators. | |

Devoured by the Horde: The fate of those abducted and sedated by an Ammophilia wasp. Taken back to the nest and placed with a sack of eggs, which will shortly hatch and the larvae will slowly eat the victim alive, all while the victims are loaded with a pleasure inducing pheremone to keep them from trying to move or escape as they're being devoured. Seemed to happen to some of the former residents on the island, and almost became the fates of Chitose and Akira. Suzuki and Kamijo are eaten from the inside-out by botfly larvae implanted into them after they had sex. | |

Handsome Lech: Usui is an attractive young man who routinely hits on girls, being introduced flirting with Suzuki. However, he has the reputation of being scum — attempting to rape Mutsui and getting away with it because Marika refused to hear Mutsui and Chitose out. After trying to hit on Mami in the following scene, he is summarily eaten by firefly larvae. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle: The biggest example are the kaiju-sized centipedes, one of which effortlessly shreds the crew of the coast guard ship sent to investigate the two-week loss of contact on the island, and then coils around the ship thinking it's a female centipede. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold | |
| The Island of Giant Insects (Manga) / int_4781adbb | comment |
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: In early chapters, Kai can be seen acting mostly in self-interest, and mostly follows and supports Mutsumi only because it's in his best interests so that he had a better chance of survival. Later chapters, though, show him having a more selfless (if not slightly jaded) side to him. From back in school when he went out of his way to save a boy being bullied in a bathroom by running up to the door and yelling to a teacher he had brought, when in reality, he had just been bluffing to scare them away. On the island, the same can be seen later on, including when he paid Matsuoka proper respects at her makeshift grave with the others, or when he was shown to have already been thinking up a plan on how to save Mutsumi and Marika from the giant spider, even when everyone else was more interested in staying in the safe spot and waiting for help to arrive. Jinno can also be seen as this as the story goes on. She went from being the alpha bitch of the crew to becoming one of Oribe's allies and later gives her life to save the others. | |

Conveniently Seated: Interestingly enough, our main character, Mutsumi, seems to take the seat in the very back and middle of her classroom. By contrast, Kai, a side character, in his own classroom, takes the typical 'protagonist seat'; second from the back right next to the window. | |

Sex Signals Death: Kamijo threatens Suzuki into having sex by saying that if she does as he says then he'll spare her when they return to the mainland and he gets his Yakuza buddies to kill the others in revenge for his humiliation. She goes from reluctantly giving him a blowjob to greatly enjoying her first time. The fire protecting them from giant insects goes out after they fall asleep together, and when they wake up they are both raped by giant botflies, which impregnate them with larvae that eat them alive. | |

Oribe Mutsumi is The Leader, formerly a quiet girl who sat in the back of the class reading up on insects, now takes a role as leader of the group due to her vast knowledge of insects. Also doubles somewhat as The Smart Guy due to this knowledge. She ultimately secedes the position to Chitose partway through the manga, and takes over as The Lancer. | |

Sanity Slippage | |
| The Island of Giant Insects (Manga) / int_62434fe2 | comment |
Sanity Slippage: Mami blames Aoyama and Marika for the death of Matsuoka, since they'd refused them entry to a shed they were using to hide from the fireflies. Marika is so obsessed with safety that she's willing to leave the other members of the group for dead when they're attacked by firefly larvae, consoling a distraught Suzuki by saying that unity is paramount while molesting her. When the supposed safe zone at a Shinto shrine that the group was travelling to is revealed to be home to a giant trap-door spider, she snaps and more or less hands herself over to it. Chitose notes that Kamijo was always a violent person, but that the traumatizing experiences have made him even worse when he starts ranting about how he's Oda Nobunaga reborn and tries to rape Momosaki. Aoyama Nozomi undergoes this after causing the death of Marika, who had molded her into a yes-girl and sex-slave. She blames Mutsumi and continuously tries to kill her while making it look like an accident, further making her The Load. | |

Robbing the Dead: How the group acquires a working cell phone. Kai swipes one off of one of the island's former residents after the group finishes smashing a nest full of Ammophilia larvae. Technically the robbed party aren't quite dead yet, but at that point they were more than halfway eaten and no way to save them, so they might as well have been dead anyway. | |

Ascended to Carnivorism | |
| The Island of Giant Insects (Manga) / int_6ce4c7b0 | comment |
Ascended to Carnivorism: Mutsumi makes note of the fact that many of the giant insects that would normally be herbivores are now attacking and eating humans. A hypothesis is made at one point that, since the insects grew so large, they became past the point where they could survive off of plants, and had to turn to animals instead. | |

Posthumous Character | |
| The Island of Giant Insects (Manga) / int_8b568cb7 | comment |
Posthumous Character: When the main group first meets the school's art teacher, Miss Nozawa, she was already doomed to be dead because of how many ticks had latched on to her body, and they feel sorry for her death. However, a later flashback by Aoyama reveals that Miss Nozawa had initially survived the crash for a bit, but at the same time shows she was a horrible person because Miss Nozawa had been blackmailing and sexually abusing Aoyama under threat of outing her for shoplifting. She ended up in the tick nest because of Marika pushing her over a cliff and into the forest after catching her in the act of molesting Aoyama. | |

| The Island of Giant Insects (Manga) / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Asshole Victim: With so many unpleasant characters, is no surprise there are a few. Usui is a pervert who tries to rape Mutsumi. Nobody is sorry when he's devoured alive by firefly larvae. Miss Mazawa blackmailed and molested Aoyama even when they were on the island, so her horrible death by ticks is hardly undeserved. Marika spends her entire page time being an unpleasant and controlling bitch, who does nothing more than get the students she's supposed to protect killed with her ineptitude. Only Aoyama is sad when she's ripped to pieces. After being nothing more than a nuisance and later raping Suzuki, you won't feel sorry for Kamijou when he's raped by a giant botfly and eaten alive by their larvae. | |

Karmic Death: Usui is a pervert who tried to rape Mutsumi, and shortly thereafter is eaten by firefly larvae. Kamijo is a thug who is the Big Bad Wannabe of the series, only kept along because of his strength. As it becomes clear that no-one gives him the respect or fear he feels he deserves, he undergoes Sanity Slippage and becomes increasingly violent and megalomaniacal. He blackmails Suzuki into having sex with him, saying that if she does then he'll spare her when he and his Yakuza friends exact revenge on Mutsumi and the others. Immediately afterwards he's raped by a botfly and impregnated by her larvae. Suzuki tragically meets the same fate, pleading for Oribe to come save her. | |

Sex for Services | |
| The Island of Giant Insects (Manga) / int_d80e9526 | comment |
Sex for Services: In a sense, quite a few of the girls on (and some off) the island have used this method to get their way. Mami uses this on Matsuoka in order to get her to promise to protect her from Kamijo, Misuzu, and the insects on the island. It's uncertain if they got past fondling and making out, since it cuts to Misuzu and Leader. Misuzu used thus method on Kamijo in order to get him to agree with her and get him on her side while on the island. She also used this method back in school with a teacher in order to get a good grade. Because Aoyama was desperate to save Marika and she knew Kai had some form of plan to save both Marika and Mutsumi, she forces herself onto him in order to push him to go through with his plan. | |

Action Girl: Many of the girls in the story. Matsuoka, Chitose, and Mutsumi being examples in particular due to their actions in warding off the giant insects from everyone else. | |

Going Commando: Chitose's panties were removed by Misuzu during her rape attempt and eaten by a giant crab, necessitating her to go without. She's initially dismayed, but gets over it due to having more pressing matters to worry about. | |

The Team | |
| The Island of Giant Insects (Manga) / int_ea08e9 | comment |
The Team: Oribe Mutsumi is The Leader, formerly a quiet girl who sat in the back of the class reading up on insects, now takes a role as leader of the group due to her vast knowledge of insects. Also doubles somewhat as The Smart Guy due to this knowledge. She ultimately secedes the position to Chitose partway through the manga, and takes over as The Lancer. Naruse Chitose is The Lancer, the best friend of Mutsumi and class representative, contrasting her former shy personality by being an outgoing leader in school. She switches positions with Chitose, whose skill in combat and drive to protect everyone make her better suited to the task. Kai Kazuhiko is The Smart Guy, who knows a lot about how to operate electronics, and even how to pick locks. Kamijo Atsushi is The Big Guy, and although he claims to be the real leader of the group no-one listens to him despite his name. He mostly does a lot of grunt work, but undergoes Sanity Slippage and becomes The Load. The role was also be held by Matsuoka Ayumi, captain of the softball team back in school, prior to her death. The class idol, Miura Mami, is The Load due to her inability to fight and tendency to panic. | |

Undying Loyalty | |
| The Island of Giant Insects (Manga) / int_f16da697 | comment |
Undying Loyalty: Aoyama is completely loyal to the teacher Marika after she saved her from a depraved teacher, Nozawa, by pushing Nozawa over a cliff after seeing her sexually abusing Aoyama and saying Nozawa was attacked by a giant insect. Because of her loyalty to her, she is willing to threaten Chitose with a knife to try and force Mutsumi to save Marika when the teacher is captured by a giant spider, and even forces herself onto Kai sexually to convince him to help her save the teacher (and Mutsumi by default) later when that fails. | |

Attempted Rape: Misuzu attempts to rape Chitose while the latter is strapped to a hospital bed. She's attacked by a giant crab before she can do anything more than remove Chitose's panties. Kamijo forces Mami and Suzuki to strip Momosaki naked and is about to rape her when they are attacked by a group of scarab beetles. Usui grabs Mutsumi while the group is navigating at night, pulls her behind a tree, and molests her. Thankfully, he is stopped from going any further by Chitose and Kai intervening. | |
