I heard part of it was due to the earthquake in Japan at the time and the publishers and artists being afraid of offending as there were some similarities on building and deaths of groups of people or something like that.
It was a VERY slow starting manga, but when it kicked in, there was a bit of shock at all the gore. I don't mind a bit of gore, but sometimes it went over the top. Some things can be left to the imagination.
