| Oh Yes,this was a great manga series and if adapted correctly, then it could turned out to be one of the best survival/battle royal television series of recent times It's my favorite survival manga after 'Cage of eden' and 'battle royale' |
| This manga was really good I'm not interested in this live action serie though |
 |
| And nothing of value was gained. |
 |
| Its one of those rare case where a live-action based on a manga could potentially be good. (expectations are still low tho) Still, i would've prefered a full anime series instead. These 3 OVAs were not enough and it was actually a good start. |

| Awesome, material that could make a potentially great live action series. The fact they are making a series and not cramming it all into a film shows the first sign of positivity. Plus the director of the live action Gantz movies, even better, looking forward to it. |

| “I just spent the last two years thinking that you guys knew more than me about life and I just found out that you guys are just as dumb as me.” “Duh-doy.” “Yeah, duh-doy.” |
| I was really excited for this until the heartbreaking realization that Netflix produced Death Note's adaptation. However this series could turn out well if handled properly instead of getting another edgy mess. |
| Netflix announces they are ruining Imawa no Kuno no Alice next, buckle yourself for another crappy Netflix botch up |
| Great manga. I'm not really into live actions but I might give it a shot if the reviews are good. |
 |
| Well, this was completely unexpected. I'm kind of excited although I know I better not get my hopes high. |
| Why they didn't continue the anime instead ? what a waste !!. |
| Think this might be the first live action adaptation I'll end up watching since the OVA's were amazing and I've been thinking of reading the manga soon anyway. |
| that trailer doesn't look good at all imo, pretty big L if you ask me |
