Synopsis

What is the purpose of your life? To live is just to die? Is life a slow death? Do you even have your own purpose? Nao is a college student with such thinking...yet, reality is cruel to him. Ever since he was a child, he was categorized as a "ghost boy" whose existence was so faint that no one cared about him. One day, after being mentally traumatized by a child in a family restaurant, Nao snapped and poisoned that child. While being interrogated by the police, a mysterious beauty appeared and rescued him. Her reason was simple: "do you want to dominate the world with me?"

The basic premise for the manga was interesting in that it was a death game focused on being indirect. However, it felt like the author wasn't smart enough to properly utilize this premise, in that there were never really any moments where the traps, tricks, or twists were enough to shock or amaze the reader. Rather, it felt like things flailed around for most of it, and then it was resolved in a manner that was far too simplistic. There were some good moments outside of that, in terms of characterization and such, but how the fights actually went was weak. Furthermore, there was also the issue in ...

Trashy by-the-numbers seinen horror. Only 17 chapters and not emotionally demanding at all. If you've read other death game manga like, I don't know, Prison Lab, Dorei Yuugi, or anything from the "rabbit head" series, you won't be surprised by anything here except for the fact that it's cut short, and, though the game's premise and the uphill battle of the first few chapters may seem promising, the author clearly wasn't creative enough to do anything interesting with it. Lots of rape and murder and not much more - the usual misogyny you would expect from a work like this. Recommended only if you're really ...

Well this was a below average manga, with an interesting story but awful development and more to it, the greatest disappointment was that it was axed midway, it might have been a good manga but it was cut short and the story left unfinished, if it weren't have been axed it would be worth around 85-90 chapters. Not recommending to watch it, only reason is that you will not enjoy it at all when the manga stopped midway and unfinished.
