It is so underrated! Just go and watch it you won't regret watching it.
It's about friendship and how we're connected to each other through pain. Art style is so amazing it will make you feel the story so deeply.
The idea of proportionally sharing pain among multiple people may sound like a pretty interesting premise for a series, but in Kiznaiver’s case it’s just that – a concept. Despite all the talk of shadowy scientific organisations, a grand plan for achieving world peace and some rather curious flashback foreshadowing, the main crux of Kiznaiver doesn’t do much in the way of carrying the show forward.
...
If anything it’s just a method of getting all these wildly different characters together in the first place. Once the whole “if one person gets hurt the rest will feel it” thing is set up there isn’t much left to really do with it other than for it to act as a visual metaphor. As the 12-episode series approaches its conclusion and starts to answer some of the bigger mysteries of the series (why Katsuhira can’t feel pain anymore, Sonozaki’s true identity), what should have felt like huge revelations instead comes across as minor background material.
