Ingoshima

A passenger ship carrying high school students heading to a school trip encountered a storm and was wrecked.

When I came to my senses, I was drifting to an island that was not even on the chart, but living there were 'islanders' who spoke unpleasant Japanese and had a savage lifestyle. The students are relieved that it is an inhabited island. But immediately, the ' capture ' of the students by the 'islanders' begins!

In an extreme situation where even drinking water is not available, boys and girls begin to reveal their instinct little by little as they are swayed by the overwhelming violence of the 'islanders'. Even after all morality has disappeared, will people remain human or will they degenerate into beasts?

A tribalism survival story that seeks life and the meaning of life begins!!

The island, which is the background of the play, takes the form of an ancient tribal federation kingdom where the strongest becomes the king and rules over the inhabitants. Gamou, the strongest on the island, and his mother, Chiomo, are called shogun (royal family) and reign as the king of the island. rule the island

Residents of the island speak Japanese as if they were outsiders, but it is unusual to call men 'Ogome' and women 'Agame'. Most of the residents live wearing old clothes and helmet-shaped masks made of animal or human skulls on their heads. About 1,000 people seem to be living there, and the natives of the island call themselves 'children of perseverance' and 'people of perseverance' and claim that they are a clan abandoned from the mainland a long time ago. Maybe that's why he hates people outside the island. This idea is also revealed in 'Omegumi', a special ritual on the island, where the castaways express their hatred by catching and offering them as sacrifices.

In the detailed ritual process, Chiomo, the priest of the island, selects men and women with exceptional appearance among the castaways, burns incense that has a hallucinogenic effect, and then uses an aphrodisiac drug to put them on the border between reason and instinct. Do you remember your name?” asks the question. Among them, if there is a person who cannot remember his name, the woman is tied naked to a reef exposed at low tide, and when the water rises, sharks feed it. It is thrown alive inside and melts to death.

The island's society basically has men as the ruling class and women as the subordinate class. In the case of foreigners captured by men, although they are slaves, they have the opportunity to rise in social status through a festival called 'Aegi' where they fight against strong men designated by the king. However, for women who are physically weak, even this is difficult, such as Sakaki Jiube, the leader of the cult. Except for extremely strong women, or those with good figures and beauty like Ooyano Kiriha, the king's wife, who caught the eye of the king of the island and became his wife or maid, most women were used for reproductive purposes. They become sex slaves and have to live in misery.

Just looking at the description in the work, most of the women living on the island are only 30 years old as a result of repeated pregnancy and childbirth several times without considering hygiene and nutrition, but they are living with a miserable appearance with hair loss and poor teeth.

Looking at it this way, it is a primitive island with no answers, but the reason it is not extinct and continues to exist is because typhoons occur periodically around the island, and ships passing by are wrecked, causing outsiders to drift to the island. Even if the residents die from malnutrition or hygiene problems, the drifters can be kidnapped to supplement the population. Also, just like the Bermuda Triangle, if you go around the island, communication devices become paralyzed and connections with the outside world are cut off, making it impossible for outsiders to find the island. It is also impossible to escape the island because of the typhoons, and it is known that only the island's king, Gamou, knows how to escape the island.
