I am legitimately confused. I have several questions, but honestly, I don't think I want any of them answered. In this review, I'll be writing my views regarding Fukushuu Kyoushitsu -- I'll avoid spoiling it, but be warned that this may, in fact, not be spoiler-free.
Story (3/10):
This is the story about a girl who suffered an awful amount of bullying from her classmates, and now she wants to take revenge on them in multiple forms which, initially, doesn't necessarily mean she will resort to killing everyone. After a few victims, the manga seems to attempt to show us the consequences of her acts and how
...
selfish the progatonist was from the very beginning and gives us the expectation that things may not start to go as we initially expected and that her chain of revenge was, in fact, an awful idea.
In the following chapters, however, that seems to have been completely forgotten or discarded, as the entire story surpasses the limits of how edgy a scenario can be and everything is blown out of proportion, along with ridiculous plot twists which makes you wish they never actually happened and the worst possible depiction both of "Cause and Effect" and how serious the story is actually meant to be.
The third act and the ending do nothing to fix that, but instead, transform a certain horrible character into a secret good guy and reveals even more absurd plot twists that lead to an unsatisfactory, frustrating, and completely open conclusion.
Art (5/10):
I'll make this section short: It's OK, there is nothing particularly special about the artwork of this manga, it does just fine but does not stand out and fails to convey emotion.
Characters (1/10):
When I thought I had already seen a story full of horrible characters, Fukushuu Kyoushitsu managed to quite LITERALLY make a story which only contains characters that are completely awful. When I say that, I mean that most of the characters in this manga only have one trait, which is that they are despicable people and that is all that matters, adding to the selfish and unidimensional view of the protagonist, which is also an awful person.
No one is memorable, no one has any trait that makes them stand out or they only have a single trait that is taken to the extreme in an attempt to give them some sort of personality. Try remembering everyone's names, you won't be able to, you will easily forget the names of the main characters. Try describing them with more than two sentences, you won't be able to do that either, because there is really no depth to them at all, not to mention not a single one of them is likeable.
Enjoyment (3/10):
You know, in the beginning of this manga, I was enjoying it and I wanted more, because my expectations were that the story would develop into something far more interesting than just this "revenge chain" and get away from the one-sided, selfish and screwed up point of view of the protagonist. However, that didn't happen and, as mentioned above, became a ridiculous scenario with absurd plot twists and there was no enjoyment left by the end of the manga, because of how disappointing it was.
Overall (2/10):
Need I say more? I was left disappointed in so many levels because of how poorly written and how terribly rushed this manga turned out to be, how you never get to actually like or even remember any of the characters, how your expectations are ruined by the attempts of making a subversive plot, the reader is left confused about many unanswered questions and the enjoyment is nowhere to be found.
My recommendation is to simply ignore this manga and avoid the possibility of serious frustration and confusion.

Well, what can I say about this manga? I am not sure if they were even trying.
Story (1/10):
Watari-kun no xx ga Houkai Sunzen is a manga about a young boy and his little sister who have moved to their aunt's house after the death of their parents. They used to have a field, but a girl named "field destroyer" (or Satsuki Tachibana) ruined everything in the past. After the protagonist's little sister Suzu tells him that she wants to have a field again, just like in the past, the "field destroyer" returns simultaneously, but instead of doing anything to ruin their field, she instead proceeds
...
to... kissing the protagonist? Alright, I already know where this is going. There's nothing else to be seen here.
Art (5/10):
I don't think the artwork in this manga is necessarily "bad", but it is that kind of art style with nothing new or unique to offer, nothing that could make it, in any way, memorable, it's just decent enough not to bother the reader.
Character (1/10):
Oh boy, where to begin? The worst part of the manga were, probably, the characters.
Naoto, the protagonist, is a regular high school student, except he doesn't even talk to his friends anymore because he is (pretty much all the time) thinking about his little sister and spending every single minute of his daily life taking care of her and spending time with her. Of course anyone would think he has some sort of "siscon", and of course he denies that. But let's be honest that we already know where all of this is going. Nothing memorable about this character, nor any personality trait that I would consider interesting.
Naoto's little sister Suzu is the kind of character that we're all used to (and sick of) seeing in manga and anime in general: A (VERY) generic and (VERY) useless loli who loves saying the word "onii-chan" (as much as she loves the onii-chan himself) and cannot do anything on her own. She is absolutely jealous of her big brother to the point that she would not allow him to even befriend other girls and would become completely upset if she saw a girl kissing him (which is what happened in the very beginning of the manga).
Satsuki Tachibana, the "field destroyer", is a character that was initially thought to be the antagonist of the manga for being the one responsible for ruining Naoto's field in the past. But it turns out that she is just a creepy stalker who is always chasing him, even when he is not aware of that, and probably has some serious issues for thinking that it would be smart to suddenly kiss him all of a sudden after making him hate her. In fact, even the kiss was a stupid move, since she kept kissing him for so long to the point where he fainted. For the rest of the story, all I can say is that she is a poorly written character, and nothing she says or does makes any sense.
Enjoyment (1/10):
I actually wanted to give this a 0, because I could not enjoy this manga for a single moment. The only reason I kept reading it was because I gave it so many chances to prove that it could be good or that it would get any better in the future. Well, nope, it's just as terrible as it seems.
Overall (2/10):
I think I have already written enough in the previous sections, so let me be quick in this one and say: Don't waste your time reading this. This one doesn't seem to be going anywhere, and will remain as a completely lame manga with poorly written (and even generic) characters, average artwork, ridiculous story that doesn't seem to make any sense even when they attempt to explain it and 0 enjoyment.
