Plots(1)
A class of thirty-two high school students receive texts commanding them to complete strange tasks. Do what the messages say, and more will follow. Fail to go through with them, and face the consequences. Nobuaki Kanazawa has played this game before and knows that these demands must be met. But until penalties for failure become lethal, no one is ready to step out of their comfort zone. With death around every corner, and as orders and punishments become more and more gruesome, the worst in people manages to tear its way out. (FUNimation)

At first, I thought this show was based on an interesting idea, and at one point, I got to thinking how I was going to react; however, that is about it. The melodrama inadvertently became a comedy, and I had the urge to laugh at almost every death. I sometimes could not hold myself together, even in the most intense situations. Well, when I was not laughing, I was putting my head in my hands or shaking it and wondering WTF I was watching. The show features a unique collection of bullshit, stuff that just does not make any sense at all, and moments that left my sanity reeling. However, the show is also extremely stupid in places that (as SonGokussj said in his review) you want to see more and see if anything else could beat it. I am not going to award it BOO!, even though, rationally speaking, it was rubbish most of the time. In addition, there is the fact that it should irritate me that this is meant to be a serious drama and horror movie. However, on the other hand, I did have fun at times, even if it was degenerate and low-brow entertainment because you should not laugh at someone else's stupidity. 2/10.
