Had I squeezed in Karakuri Circus in the title, this post would've written itself. :p And yup, same deal with teh Elex side – waiting on synops—and Level artwork—so the Japanese Eden no Ori 2 cover leads in the interim.
[Update] Mkay, now leading with Level's Cage of Eden art.

Eden no Ori vol 2 © Yamada Yoshinobu/Kodansha [Serialized in Weekly Shonen Magazine]. Published in Indonesia as Cage of Eden vol 2 by Level Comics
Sengoku and the remaining crash survivors stumble across another group on the beach...
...and decide to cobble together a raft to ferry them off the island. While searching for possible raft material, however, Sengoku and his classmates are attacked by an andrewsarchus. They flee to the ocean, hoping the two-ton, two-meter-high predator wouldn't follow them into the sea.
But who knows what danger lurks in the water?
Sengoku Akira apparently survived the hockey-masked madman
Kodansha Comics' Cage of Eden 2 synops spotlit, but he and the other survivors still have a long way to go before rescue and safety. (Volume 20 of Eden no Ori still talks about trying to get off the island, and volume 21 is already queued up for a 15 February release.)
The second Cage of Eden compiles episodes 5 to 13: Lord of the Other Side,
The Underdog,
Duty for All Lives,
Light & Darkness,
Hell's Bosshead,
Brotherhood,
Dead End,
Cry Out
and Eloquent Lip.
Pet Shop of Horrors volume 7 preview follows the release list.
