Just started and got caught up with the series and I have to say it's one of the better series I've read recently. The story, characters, and setting are all interesting. I do find it a bit hard to believe that people with Iris are completely prejudiced against Iris Zeros after just five years and none of their parents having them, especially since most prejudices are passed on from parents to children, but it's one of the suspension of disbelief scenarios. Thankfully, the author's character development makes up for the lack of believability.

Nice manga, the setup is great and I think that more than being prejudiced is the same behavior that rich kids have in front of poor kids, or popular kids when confronted with umpopular ones when they interact in the same location. So yeah, is not about predjuice, is about seing someone as less than you which I can relate (Didn't have the most memorable highschool years , athough I never considered myself a bullied kid, I was part of the outcast group... Ah... being a kid )

This can be mixed in to other arcs as she goes around looking for people with qualification. In the mean time, a band of other iris zeros band together to take revenge on the irises who have been oppressing and bullying them, they have the support of the grown up who fear the power of the children with iris. Random attacks take place, getting more serious each time and they try to get Toru to join them. The gang must run around to stop the attacks and placate the iris zero so that the gang will disband. With their main detective's alliance in doubt, can the gang resolve this crisis before someone is killed? |

My setup:
The whole iris things actually originate from the alien's conspiracy who want to take over the world. There's noway something ridiculous like would simply popped up anyway. And they have complete control over "infected" people with ability to use their "real" iris to take over command of the infected body, like tell them to strip naked and run around town. Their first experiment was in a certain high school, and now Toru needs to investigate about why people with iris unconsciously doing crazy things, which he soon will expose alien's agenda. |

I imagined that Toru meets another Iris Zero from another school who has more successfully hid his identity and is a popular sports team member, and introduces him to his friends, who accidentally out him to the school. Toru tries to prevent that IZ from being beaten to death by his team and schoolmates. He fails. For the first time, Toru does not forgive. |

About next arcs... Who knows? Perhaps I would like something like Koyuki unwillingly seeing someone qualified to be her lover who isn't we know who. Or perhaps something about Tokita playing conspiracy and trying to be a cupid with someone from the main cast? ..... I do wonder "what is the news" to be announced in the next issue. To be honest with 3 volumes it feels too early for any for any other type of adaptation (weither it is OVA, Drama CD, Light Novel and Of course Anime). Maybe is something "smaller" like Iris Zero moving to another magazine and thus another release schedule? Time will tell.
