I remember reading the manga a while back, and hating it. Thought I'd check out the anime out of curiosity, and maybe even hate-watch the series.

After watching this, I don't know if I can. I couldn't stand this. The first episode perfect exemplifies everything I hated about the manga. It's just a nasty, horrid story full of horrible human beings with a sad doormat of a main character.

I don't even think this is the "fun" kind of edgyness, either. For me, the fun kind of edge is stuff like Hellsing that's just dumb and goofy. The kind of stuff that you can play nu-metal to. Even shit like Shadow The Hedgehog is hilarious to me. This is just mean-spirited, unpleasant, and downright ugly.

Good adaption of the manga, almost 1:1, very edgy and so surreal that it is almost comedy. :D

The only issue i have is that the anime is stated as 12 episodes and the manga is way ahead and still ongoing so my fear is that they close the serie with an anime original ending. Anyway the anime is a good thing, maybe some scalnators can pick up the manga and continue the translation since is talled at chapter 41 since january 2018.

But so far is a great adaption, kudos on the studio to not censor anything. 5/5

Not a good first episode. There are so many layers of edge here i think i've cut my eyes just by seeing this. It's so fucking abhorrently abusive to it's main character that i could consider this borderline torture porn (not actual porn, i mean the genre). I'll give it a couple more episodes, but if it continues like this, man... It does not look good.

I am not even sure where to start. This is a new level of horrible.

That is not bullying, that's upright assault and battery. The amount of awful cliches is just abysmal. The main character is on a new level of door mat. The conversation at the dinner table was so cringe. Random attempted rape by a guy who looks like he's pushing 30s. A box cutter in a school, sure. Everyone seems to be mentally challenged.

The edge is real sharp on this one.

I thought King's Game was bad...this is in a league of its own.
Suddenly, someone slaps you with a brick wall.

the art of displaying the emotional state of a character is a really hard thing, it's a thin line you have to follow to do it properly with a moderate pace

yet this anime just throws a bunch of shit at ya

>nobody cares about me
>i'm a pathetic human being
>even the fuckin people on the street say "isn't it too early for this?" or "just get off the street" and pass by when i'm trying to potentially throw myself under the tracks

god, this is giving me such a butthurt, fucking unbelievable


i already made a thread to warn you people , this show is pure edge for the sake of edge

the writer will always push the logic aside just to make it more edgy , bc at the end of the day the edge is what people mostly care about when reading horror manga

Wow... I normally laugh at people who say things like this, but THAT really was trying way too hard to be edgy... I guess we'll see where this goes, but so far it's not looking like this will do a whole lot to improve the horror genre's track record over the past few seasons (which is the truly horrific thing here).

This anime is so fresh and unique! No one else has ever thought of making an anime about cute middle school girls gaining magical powers and then throwing off the audience by making it super dark and gory! And wow the main character is going through so much its crazy how many bad things can happen to such a sweet main character that never talks in one episode! Haha it really makes killing the evil bullies understandable! What a mean brother by the way! For that to happen to the cute, mute main character in her own house while her caring, naive parents sleep peacefully is so sad! Man I have no idea whats gonna happen next episode haha cant wait this is waay better than madoka magica so edgy and new and wow i feel so bad for mc wo w i hate bullies som uch this could happen irl its so sad why are peoople soooo mean anyways i gotta take a 2 week nap to properly digest this episode it wa s sooooo da rk andedgyandsadijustneedtogoforawalkandthinkabouthowmeanpeopleare : (

just from the op i can tell that she won't stop suffering and still will want to kill herself, even with a powerful weapon. i'd give it 2 more episodes just to see how it develops, but watching this shit just ruins my day automatically

And damnit, I saw that cat scene coming - Of course the bullied girl takes care of a wild animal and the bullies kill the animal. Gosh, that trope always makes me angry and sad. I could live without that.


Same. I dont really care if the humans kill bully themselve what ever. but animals?
That's usually a thing I totally stop watching.
And that's what I do with this anime, even if it should be a good one.

Same for brain less gore movies, love them. As long only people got shredded.

Looks at title *meh just another generic magical girl show*. Sees PV *that looks kinda dark and disturbing*. Watches the episode *damn that edge just cut me*.

Definitely picking this up lol.

I hope the ED is not foreshadowing of the poor girl getting raped for real....the cat already broke my heart.

so many people seems don’t like the introduction that way too overexaggerated her despair, i can understand that. the world is not beautiful as it may seem, i’ve seen people who experienced a heavy bully like this in real life. reading the manga, i feel very sad seeing her have to struggle against everything, seeing it animated, it makes me more sad, but hey, this is literally the first 2 chapter. the introduction may be overblown to make it very dramatic, but the main point of this anime is the Mahou Shoujo Site itself, not her being bullied, it’s just her gateway of the introduction to the site, because after this, it’s only magical girls fight

her brother is disgusting though, 2-faced looking ass motherfucker. my problem is that, at least give her a screentime with her parents, if she’s lonely in school that’s fine, don’t need to add a classmate, but no screentime with her family making it more depressing as it should be, her mom is pretty sweet and her father is just strict, that’s all

and there’s a lot of fundamental problem of the site itself, or the rules of the game, and the fights, which is for me is pretty interesting later on

ah well, the introduction episode is important, not everyone taste, i get it, i liked it though, there’s no point on symphatizing the MC, because the main story isn’t about MC being bullied over and over and she has to escape from it by killing everyone who bully her. it’s about her joining a magical battle royale with another magical girls fighting with magical weapon

Personally I felt that this show was trying too hard to push forward the idea that "this show is dark" and "this girl suffers a lot". But it almost seems like the characters are all evil for the sake of being evil and ruining the main girl's life. It managed to get me curious though about this magical girl world at the end and it wasnt a boring episode so not that bad. Btw RIP the cat Im paying my respects

Well.....that was disturbing. Aya's life really sucks, dealing with all that abuse at school and then it continues after she gets home. And killing the cat....really.....how fucking pathetic can a person be? Fucking sociopaths.

I'll keep watching this just to get my weekly dose of edge (I hate throwing these buzzwords around but I have to agree here, this show is edgy as fuck).
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

The episode was good but...dang that was some extreme bullying. I can see why people say that it's "edgy" and it did seem like the dark aspects of the show were a bit forced. But, that's ok in my opinion. I'm definitely going to finish watching though. Also...they were steps away from taking the Elfen Lied route with the cat's death...

Why can't anyone think rationally in this show? How is the parents not hearing their daughter crying from her room when the brother character was beating up Aya? How the hell did the bully draw to the conclusion that Aya killed the rapist and her friend? Why is Aya going back home everyday? Has she talked with her school counselor about the abuse? Did she call child protected services? Somebody please think! Anyways, the animation is very average, I really don't have high exceptions for this one. It might get better.

What a pathetic excuse of a human being. There is no way in this day and age that someone could let themselves get bullied/abused/deprecated like that without apparently liking it.

Glue in the chair/vandalism to the desk? Oh I don't know, maybe Fucking tell the teacher that you can't sit down because those stupid cunts fucked up your seat.

Tacks/Death wish charms in your shoe locker? Oh, I don't know, maybe alert the guidance counselor, teacher, or any other school employee. Same goes for the bathroom scene.

The near rape thing in the shed? How the fuck did she get in the shed to begin with, she clearly followed along with them obediently, because if you saw 3 girls and a guy dragging or carrying her into the shed, its going to raise some red flags to anyone - teachers and students alike - that something isn't right.

The brother? Your parents may think he's some angel, but you have a fucking laptop right there, how about recording via the webcam or your cell phone discretely. Pretty hard to refute cut-and-dry evidence like that. And that's only if resorting to that level is necessary, telling them/showing them the bruises and wounds should be enough for any reasonable parent, no matter how stupid they are. You can't tell me that punching in the stomach and half strangling her isn't going to leave bruising and ligature marks.

Just a fucking pathetic mc. Is she actually carrying out the acts of abuse on herself? No, but she's paving the way to let it continually happen like she's got a big billboard above her that says "Do any unspeakable things you want to me, I'll never tell and will let you continually do it for as long as you want and you'll never get in trouble!"


The ONLY thing I felt bad for in this first episode was the poor kitten. That fucking cunt that killed it deserved that fucking train that ran over it right up her ass, and happily that's about what she got.

And don't get me wrong - I like psychological/tragedy/horror styles, but I mean come on with this mc. There's an enormous difference between having tragic things beyond your control happen vs allowing things that can easily be prevented to continually happen and be all boo-hoo woe is me about it.

Hard to watch at begning, but I want to watch at least one more episode to decide if I keep watching or not. Close to episode's ending this show started to looks interesting.

Sadly MC's story it's not too unrealistic, some people really lives like that at some sense (bullying, domestic violence, abuse). This anime retracted it in some extreme form, but the problem is real.

i read the manga (i believe it either got put on hold or stopped being translated) so i had an idea of what would be happening but i forgot about the cat, omg :-( that's honestly some of the worst animal cruelty i've ever seen, maybe even worse than elfen lied, i actually teared up o(╥﹏╥)o i literally did a mini cheer when the two bullies died oop

even though it doesn't have the best reviews, i really liked the first episode. i thought it did a really good job capturing the manga, and it really is a lot more "edgy" on the screen than paper.

on another note, i don't really understand the sky sperms in the ed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Interesting setting for sure, but I did not like the pacing of this first episode, too many things happening way too fast. The suicide attempt and over the top bullying was probably the producers trying to make the audience relate and feel MC's despair, but one single episode seems too short for all that. I think they should have used one or two episodes for the build up, and then introduce the magical girl stuff.

But well, at least there's something interesting and different to watch this season.

That shit is dark. Oh no don't cut her! That's crossing the line. When I saw that I was like... Really? This is where you draw the line? The entire first episode was layer upon layer of desperate attempts at creating a character people can feel sorry for. A real underdog. So poorly done. And what fucking town do they live in where this many literally socio/psychopathic school children have been cultivated? What is in the fucking water?

This episode was like MGRP x Hell Girl. If I didn't know any better I would've genuinely thought I was watching Hell Girl before the magical girl stuff came up.

Wouldn't even piss on the grave of those sacks of subhuman filth. All five of them (brother included) deserve to be burned alive before having their ashes cast into the wind.

Unfortunate that the other girl and the brother didn't get merked too. Hopefully that mistake gets cleared up.


Completely agree with you! On the Hell Girl stuff! I like it so far! It's dark, but again, I would have thought I was watching HG, without all the magical girl stuff. (:

Yet...

This was dark... I haven't really seen an opening episode this dark since Kotoura-san bit I highly doubt this is going to turn into a happy go lucky show.

Those bullies were so over the damn top. From almost drowning her, to calling in a guy to rape her... But the topper was the one girl killing the kitten... I'm so glad for what happened to them. I'm a glutton for punishment so I'll definitely keep watching this.

Maybe a little too edgy for me lol, not sure if I loved it or hated it. I really like the premise but the episode was hard to sit through at times.
I know the point was to make you uncomfortable but I think they did that a bit too well lmao.

It was so damn satisfying to see the bullies die, but I kinda wish they would've felt more pain (I'm sadistic I know), at least 2x what the main went through.
I also wanna see her brother fucked. I know he's relieving stress from their asshole dad but there's other fucking ways to do it you cunt.

Gonna carry on watching though because it's intruiging as fuck, albeit depressing and disturbing.
