I'm really conflicted right now. On one hand, I want to give this show such a low rating because everything about it is awful, but on the other hand you know the creators wanted you to hate the characters. And they did their job very well, I don't think I've ever felt this frustrated in any form of media before. So because of that, I think I will give this a 10 in terms of it doing its job extremely well, but in terms of how much I enjoyed it, definitely a four.

Tem que o psicológico forte pra assistir até o final do episódio final. O drama tem sua proposta e conduziu bem, trazendo tensão e despertando diversos sensações inquietantes. É um anime forte e quem se abala fácil, não recomendo assistir.

Positives:

-Its unique. Cant deny that.

-MC taking initiative in a romance anime, a harem anime at that. Thats a plus.

-Unique memorable last three episodes.

-MC gets character development.

-You can see how the characters are affected by the whole drama of this anime.

- I like the creepy background music it would use every now and then with the piano, like you know something is about to go down.  It really sets the mood and atmosphere.

-This anime has some realism = like how some girls will do eroticc stuff with a man who is not her boyfriend in order to try to win him over because she likes him; and how some people just go super-crazy if the relationship isnt working; and how girls want to be with the hott guy that all the other girls want; and how girls dont mind sharing a hott guy with other girls (I guess Makoto is considered a stud in this anime who is very popular with girls, as it was mentioned a couple of times throughout the anime).





Negatives:

-If sexx is something thats happening in the anime, then SHOW the sexx scenes, like in Yosuga No Sora. Dont just imply that is happened!!!! COME ON!!!!!

-First five episodes were slow and meh.  I get it = Its a deconstruction of the goofy male MC that for some reason has tons of women after him, so you gotta start generic, but damn, those first 5 episode were a DRAG.

-This is kinda breaking the fourth wall, but Makoto's voice REALLY annoyed me. I loved his voice actor in many animes that he has voiced, but in this anime as Makoto, its just OUCH.  I guess the voice actor played his role this way with Makoto to keep it in line with the deconstruction of the goofy-looking-male-MC in a harem.

-Its kinda difficult many times to take this anime seriously due to the comedy scenes involved in the first 10 episodes, and Makoto with his goofy looking face and goofy reactions.

- The superficial dialogue by the girls every now and then just made me roll my eyes, like =  "I am Makoto's girlfriend",  "I love Makoto more than anyone" etc.  SHUT UP!!!!! JUST SHUT UP!!!!!!

- School Days should have been 10 episodes and not 12 episodes, to speed up its pacing, especially in the beginning episodes and to cut down on the comedy-relaxing scenes.




Overall, School Days was an enjoyable watch, but also a boring watch.  BUT, if there is one thing that you cannot take away from School Days, is that it HAS A LOT OF HISTORICAL VALUE in the anime world and the anime community. It is right up there from a historical point of view with Full Metal Alchemist, Attack on Titan, Haruhi, Death Note, Evangelion, Clannad; meaning School Days is an anime that every anime fan must watch to form an opinion.

I take everything I said back. 10/10 series. Really brought the emotion out of me. It was definitely a rollercoaster but I'm glad I stayed on it till the end. He got what he deserved.

I played all the other episodes on 4x speed, and still had to pause every five minutes because of how unbearable and insufferable Makoto was. Watched this with 1x having heard this is one of the sickest episodes ever - very satisfying indeed, did not regret. Also loved the song 悲しみの向こうへ (Kanashimi no Mukou e)

Also wasn't as gruesome as people made it out to be (or maybe I have a really messed up mind) - I'd argue it's on par with that one episode in Happy Sugar Life

Nice boat btw

That, honestly has to be one of the most shocking endings ever to be written in animanga history for real.

The whole nice boat scenario was just, wow straight out of a horror movie like holy shit.

Not surprised and well lol he had it coming to be honest here too lol.

Welp this was a Trainwreck of a finale, But overall I'm satisfied with the ending. Sekai and Makoto both wronged Kotonoha initially so they just got Karma served to them haha.
This anime actually kept me entertained throughout and while the story was bad, it was the good kinda bad and kept me questioning stuff more and more. In the end everyone was a piece of shit lmao.
8/10 for this anime because it actually succeeded at making me feel angry, confused and questioning the existence of this show all at the same time lmao.

Sayonara… this anime is honestly kind of emotional. This really is what I’d call a romantic tragedy. I like that for ONCE fuqing ONCE we don’t have the same same same romantic story over and over again. That’s what I like about this that it’s actually original

@pasteljo18 the worst karma they can get is meet Katsura and sekai just like how makoto did

[SCHOOL DAYS FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF SOMEONE WHO KNOWS NOTHING - EPISODE 12]

LOL, THAT WAS AMAZING!

Makoto 100% deserved that, also Kotoha’s transformation into a Yandere was so insane that it loops back around to being the most logical conclusion.

I’m not being ironic when I say this was BY FAR the most enjoyable episode to watch, finally breaking free of the “terrible and creepy harem” masquerade. If I were to rate this episode alone, it would probably be a 7/10 or 7.5(rounded to 8)/10, but the ending alone doesn’t fix the eleven episodes worth of time I will never get back.

4/10 (and that’s generous).

There it is. I reiterate: it's a tremendous shame this is one of the most spoiled anime out there, as the ending could've left even more of a mark if it this anime was more obscure than it is. Regardless, this was a phenomenal episode that delivered on all the uneasy tension and fractured relationships that were inevitably bound to come to a boil—akin to the whining of the kettle that heralded the end—resulting in a brutal, tragic fate for Makoto and Sekai, and a Kotonoha who will be mindbroken for the foreseeable future.

An excellent, immersive and beautifully destructive anime, without a doubt. Perhaps this series serves as an exemplar of what could possibly come as a result of a "donkan protagonist" subverting expectations to an extreme that is too excessive for their own good, leaving a trail of shattered hearts in their wake. The environmental and audial symbolism through seemingly innocuous objects like kettles and yarn also worked as omens of events to come, whether that be in the immediate future or not, reinforcing the already pervasively oppressive atmosphere that crept up on you as more and more episodes came to pass.

Moreover, the characterisation was multidimensional, with character development constantly shifting, or even naturally regressing as a result of the exposure the people in this anime had to new events and revelations; there was never any betrayal that was truly mended, nor was there any psychological weakness that wasn't eventually exploited. The lasting impact of even the earliest hints of drama were followed up on by the end, demonstrating that Makoto, and all those who associate with him, really were being prepared for at least a moderate helping of dismay from the start.

Can't say it's flawless, despite the praise I had for this anime, as the psychotic attitudes on display were ubiquitous to an extent where you couldn't entirely suspend your disbelief. Even though Makoto's self-serving nature was bound to bring out the worst in people, the vindictiveness from even the minor characters sometimes came across as superfluous, as if only showcased to accentuate the tonal race to the bottom that was already in full swing by the latter half of the anime. Fortunately, these sentiments of malice were always thoroughly entertaining, necessary or not.

It's, essentially, just another fantastic show with a memorably fucked up story, and adept handling of how to use the audiovisual factor in an anime to massively contribute to the immersive value of the story you want to tell.

Imo this anime seemed ultra exaggerated most of the time but at the same time quite realistic in its whole toxicity festival, but in the end it turned out to be just edgy shit, for the sake of being edgy shit xD

Despite everything it was quite interesting from a certain point, mainly because it was simply pleasant to be irritated by the stupidity of the characters who, as I said, are quite realistic, in the sense that it is easy to imagine that teenagers can behave in such an irrational way, but despite everything (not even counting the finale) I couldn't take these exaggerated idiocies seriously, it's just that every character in this anime was written to be the worst or most disturbed person in the world and none of them (apart from Katsura up to a certain point) could be rooted for, really it was impossible to make one normal character who would think logically and be a counterbalance to all this irrational shit?

The funniest thing about this anime is the fact that the MC, who is just an "ordinary guy" and is distinguished only by extreme idiocy and sperm-making, is some kind of magnet for girls who are obsessively in love with him for no reason at all, it's so stupid and unbelievable, he doesn't even try, he doesn't manipulate or anything, he just is and all the girls fall for him and literally kill for him, which makes it all seem like some loser's fantasy, although I'm not sure if anyone would fantasize about being stabbed by some chick xD

Katsura seemed like the best character and you could even root for her, understand why she wants to be with this idiot but from a certain point she just became a typical boring yandere, some guy raped me? oh well, I have to see the MC xD Katsura's whole plot was ultimately ultra shallow and forced edgy, which made it simply boring and imo it had the potential for something better.

Besides, it amuses me that adults don't exist in this anime and such stupid things as a festival at school where students have a special room to "fuck" can exist xD

Imo 6/10 because at least it stands out from all the school romances I've watched so far.

Edit.
He forgot to mention that all the female characters in this anime really only serve as MC's sex doll and don't really exist outside of MC so well... people who say that the characters in this anime are somehow particularly complex (I've seen people like that) are funny xD
Maybe 5/10 xD
