Anybody notice the shot of their car at 03:00? It looks tiny...



How big is that road?

Sidenote: One of the characters said "Chiemi-chan ga" in Japanese. That's just funny.

This show just keeps getting funnier and funnier! Was it 8 deaths this episode? Please, just keep them coming! Also, I love how hardly any adults are shown on screen. What was the taxi driver thinking that whole time? The bad animation isn't helping either... or is it? Hahaha!

So in the previous episode Chiemi decided to not answer Nobuaki's calls repeatedly. And then in this episode, it's like Nobuaki completely forgot about it and was just happy to see her. If someone can provide an explanation for that, I'd be happy to hear it. And don't get me started on Ria's explanation about the deaths being caused by viruses and extreme hypnosis.

The only reason why I'm even still watching this show is because I've watched half and I'm too far in to quit.

This anime is TERRIBLE. I've never seen such a shoddy story line. It's like the writers were trying to make the next big school horror anime like Another and just fell flat on their faces.

The way that the characters die is almost laughable; Naoya's death basically had me yawning although you could tell that they were trying to go for a tear-jerking atmosphere.

Also, isn't it convenient how Ria was able to talk WHILE ON FIRE for a full three minutes?! Her clothes burned off (of course), but her skin and hair were like "nah, not today Satan"

I really hate this show xD But watching how it just tops itself each week on how terrible it is really gives me a good laugh.

I'm sorry but this is supposed to be comedy right? Human diseas sent by e-mail, higurashi rip-off and girl set on a FUCKING FIRE stripping and giving halfassed "motivational" speach at the end.
Seriously i was laughing my ass off for the last few minutes of this episode. However, I have to say, that neck twisting scene creeped me out.


Has to be a comedy. There's really no other explanation. The deaths are hilarious and stupid. Ria's talking and still typing while on fire for about 5 minutes. The text message virus...it's all so dumb. I'm just going to take this as a comedy.

Not to mention details of the sheer absurdity of Ria's death scene, here's some icing on the cake of ridicule:



Did I just see 3 fidget spinners among the tools of abuse Ria's father used on her?

It is unrealistic at times even for an anime. I thought that in the first or second ep when someone died brutally in front of everyone else and they were upset, sure but that type of thing would have traumatized most people for life. The fire scene was cringe worthy. Um hello, aren't you in pain? She stayed in character at least. Farewell Snow Queen Ria. Btw what happened to my yandere girl Natsuko? Was she killed off already and I overlooked it?

The explanation of the virus, that it spreads through the internet is just plain silly. Strangely enough I'm enjoying this even with its glaring flaws. It's become a guilty pleasure of mine. It's far from boring but I'm prepared for a stupid ending. The OP reminds me of Deadman Wonderland. This is the end, this is the end.. Catchy.

Hmm. I was too focused on the metal screw butt plug. Or just a screw? Who knows. The brutality in this is a breath of fresh air.

That kid, Keita's head twisting around was fucking hilarious, that's some Junji Ito shit right there. If you've ever read Red Turtleneck by Junji Ito then you'll know what I mean lol

Jesus Fucking Christ, Naoya needs to get punched in the fucking face. SAY HIS GODDAMN FUCKING NAME! When that Abe guy got slugged, he should've said his name immediately. Ugh.

Naoya's death wasn't touching, it was fucking stupid. The fact that the Ousama Game thing is because of a virus is not highly convincing, an asshole virus that blows off your fucking hand when you try to answer a call from your crush.

Ria is a fucking badass, best girl most definitely. She was burning the fuck up and was still hacking using her computer. Still that part was also funny because who the fuck doesn't scream when they're burning?

I should probably feel bad for laughing at all of those gruesome deaths... But I can't XD

Lmao Ria is burning and doesn't give a fuck about it. Sure, she still had so much to talk about, can't die too quickly!

I was enjoying this episode up until the white haired chick started talking at the end. It's a fucking computer virus? And she just keeps talking as she burns to death?

They should at least have had her hair gradually burn away. It's like it was magic fire that didn't actually do any damage.

That neck twisting punishment... I feel how much it hurts from my screen.

And WTF with Ria hacking the King's game ? So I just assume her father abuses her and teach her programming, seems convenient.

"Mission Completed" after finish hacking that game lol, idk whether it's coming from the king or the laptop itself.

And lastly Ria's death was laughable and epic and the same time. The ending song fits her death scene.
He who smiles in a crisis has found someone to blame.

I don't usually do this but ok:

-Who the hell is Toshiyuki? Didn't remember we have two of them (I suppose we weren't supposed to know either)
-How did Toshiyuki #1 dash and punch Toshiyuki #2 covering like 5 metres in half a second?
-Okay the hacking animation really sucked, just Ria spamming keys (the animators were so lazy to animate this they just used a faster version of Ria typing instead of doing actual animating)
-Everyone getting decapitated in matter of seconds, but our bud Naoya seemed to get spared a little longer by the king (Because you know, he has got to get that dramatic "goodbye my dear friend" out of the way. Pretty convenient)
-I think this anime is confusing computer viruses with biological ones
-Ria was on fire for a whole minute and 40 seconds without a single sign of burn in her body (Because you know, thats what happens when you strip half naked while on fire)

Well at this point we all know this anime is supposed to be trash, but i may aswell keep watching to see what's gonna happen next.

What a bloodbath this was. Sucks that Naoya died, but I guess it was to be expected. Ria was by far the most interesting character though, IMO.

Holy shit, this episode was a 10/10 experience. The hilarious deaths, the game being a virus that sets people on fire and makes their heads fall off through the power of hypnotic suggestion, that hacking scene, and Ria stripping and nonchalantly chatting while burning to death to top it all of? Comedy of the decade.

Yikes, that was just bad. I mean, the idea of a virus that preys on the power of suggestion is quite novel and the village setting is starting to give me Shiki vibes. It's just a shame that this lacks all wit & intrigue, making the big reveal yet another WTF moment. Welp, looks like the flashbacks are coming to an end and we can get back to the present where Natsuko has likely whored herself out to everyone in order to try to kill Nobuaki (for whatever reason).

My opinion from episode 01 to 06 guys, I didn't think the anime were like that, to me it doesn't seem like horror or terror, it's more like a comedy, laugh, don't you feel pain when you burn? Was she anesthetized? It's not criticizing the author but where are the girl's screams? One of the worst deaths is being burned. I swear I tried but there's no way not to laugh at almost every death, the only one that brought tears was Naoya, but I still have a character apparently alive, but let's see if I'm more impressed in the end. It's not bad, but I give it a six.

What the hell did I just watch that just happened in that episode? It doesn't make any sense xD

One minute, it's a virus. Then another, it's a computer virus. And she tried to hack the computer virus Why is she only doing it now? And damn, we're talking about the government of scientists, it just took us 6 episodes to get people to finally ask important and interesting questions It's ridiculous, at the end, they throw the music at you like there's something hypant xD

What the f.............

It was interesting order that would have caused fights and hating in any case. Well im just glad that this bastard in tracksuit with a disgusting face died. He pissed me off from the very beginning.

But its sad that girls died, they were cute.

And damn what a guro it is. It reminds me of Elfen Lied but ofc its drawn worse here.

Now about the explanation of game.
Damn what was that lol
I even rewatched the moment of explanation twice. So the kings game began as a human virus and then this virus moved to the internet. This is complete nonsense.
Its as if flu or covid became internet virus.
You wont see this even in sci-fi and cyberpunk and here we have that in anime that takes place in modern time.
Maybe its more interesting than typical magic or something like that but damn thats too crazy.

And then Ria starts to burning and... she doesnt give a damn.
It should be funny, but for some reason i thought she was really cool. Like she is the girl made of steel or something.
She should have lit a cigarette from her own burning body and said something like "bye losers".
If i dont die like that i refuse to die at all.
I want to be like her. Ria is cool.

And well now its obvious that this anime takes place in a world where police dont exist (but the ambulance does). 8 kids corpses, 7 dismembered and one burned. Of the entire class only two survived. And not a single mention of the police for entire time.
Well they all probably live in a cruel world. In a world where you can be dismembered and no one will search the killer, only the ambulance will come and collect the remains (probably). Its amazing how they even lived to the school.
