I rlly dont get y people hated this so much. the first ep or 2 were kinda cringe, but it had so many interesting characters, antagonists and plot points. i rlly liked it. i love gore shows, and play or die pvp anime, so this was fantastic to watch, and i watched it right after talentless nana so its not like my expectations were low. to be fair i just finished ep 11 so maybe 12 will ruin it for me, but i doubt it. will update when finished. k so i just finished it, and omg it was fantastic. im not going to spoil anything, but im so glad i watched it. if i had listened to other people's reviews i would have never watched it. im soo glad i watched it.

This is quite honestly the worst story I have ever been exposed to. To call this a trainwreck would be an insult to every engineer that has ever worked on trains.

The premise is as edgy as it gets, with an "obey or die" plot that is clearly intended purely as an excuse for drama and gruesome deaths, and the characters are impossibly stupid. The entire cast lets one character get away with literally trying, and often succeeding, to get them killed right in front of their eyes purely for the convenience of the plot.

The animation and audio are at best average, resulting in an extremely poor work with no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

    Some Spoilers... might be saving you time

Hello to everyone i made this account on anime planet just to write a review on this dumpster pile of an anime. First thing is the characters are trash just my goodness especially the MC i like more of darker character like in tomodachi game but i decided you know he cant get worse but my god did he somehow get worse. it actually makes me physically upset that this is recommended if you like tomodachi game and darwin game, i dont know how they did it but this anime actually made me get a headache and got me to be upset. The story is garbage and that is saying it nicely the premise had its merit and i was kind of looking forward to see if the character displays at least a form of dark intentions combined with intelligent processing but throw that out the window and the one thing that really got to me was when the MC goes through his flashbacks that one chick that was giving all the guys "special" attention her punishment was just confessing like the heck throughout the whole anime their was like 2 punishemnts that didn't result in death so the king has a rager for death and sexual harrassment. Their is no hero in this anime in my opinion and the creator is the true villian for making this thing, i wish i was joking but every decision made by the characters made me question what thinking actually is. It is beyond me why anyone would listen to either MC or the villian chick both are pathetic and survived way longer then they should have. If you enjoy being brain dead this is the right anime for you, i want to wipe my memory of this autrocity.....

This is a gory anime, just like heavy fanservice in other shows. They replaced alot of fanservice, with heavy gore. No one under the age of 18 should watch this, unless they know what they are getting into, because it deals with heavy adult topics. The main character is nothing special in my opinion, just another person complaining that this game is happening again. Sure it is traumatizing watching him see his friend die, but the creators over exaggerate these kind of topics to the point where it is not worth watching, and kills the setting for this anime.  

P.S. I can handle dismemberment, asphyxiation, self-immolation, blood coming out piercing your skin. But when the creators handle it like this, it can be at times Laughable, discerning, and but the overusage of blood is why i could not handle the rest of what is coming, just go watch something that is better than this Danganronpa, Mirai Nikki, or Btooom!. That is why i am dropping it.

It's nothing but a fair anime. I don't know why it's had lots of hates around this anime, i think it is ok to watch. I saw some reviews say "I couldnt watch it all the way through" but if you havnt watched it all the way though how would you know if thats what it was all about? I'll sure few scenarios feel disgusting but not completely, when i watching it's gave some curiosity about how it's will ended? and the ending is don't gave any reason to say "bad" it's ok. This anime contian so much disturb scene and brutal scenarios like suicides, mudures well it's ignoreable because this anime contents are baseicly brutal type, but had lot of logic holes well it's more accurate to say no logics so normally it's spread negative thoughts, but if you don't considering this kinda stuffs then you can watch. I'm admit it's gave me awkward feels sometimes and at the end i don't think to watch second season if had, i mean "don't think" not "dont like"  nor "don't want" because the end is not enough to give me the interested about what happen to the next season. Both animation and art works has big help to make the brutal theme. If some negative or brutal things don't make you upset then you watch this if you like. Well the review is over but i had one question for you that's you think dark orange colour make any disturb feels? because dark orange is used many places in this.

Thanks for read
