| I've seen three people talk about the Teacher being a cutter. That does NOT justify a 32 year old that looks like a loli wearing cat ears. LOL What even...... |

| Fuck the OP. ED is 11/10. OT: Slow pace, but good build up on this "game" we are about to see. Got me hyped though, and the dark atmosphere fell perfect in sync with the Psycho Pass/Death Note vibe. |
 |
| I'm not a fan of the protagonist. He has that sort of detached from real life vibe that Shiro has from No Game No Life, but since there's nothing really interesting about him yet, his "this is so much fun!" spiel in the light of everything going on just comes off as creepy and uninteresting to me, like the world is going to literally be building itself around him purely to sate his amusement. Some people are undoubtedly into that kind of thing, but I feel a bit disappointed. The fact that he can stare at the mutilated corpse of his teacher and think how fun and interesting this whole thing is definitely isn't my cup of tea. His friend seems to be the only grounded personal, and no doubt he's going to be consistently ignored and coerced into helping out on the grounds that his friend will just do it without him if he doesn't. |
| Looks like i might be in the minority here, but i thought that this was an amazing first episode! :D |
Sourire said: weakness = characters. Exactly. that was the main problem for me. hope it get's better. |
| "this is fun" might get "unfun" real quick :( The archtype has been pushed to far. The trap design is GOOD thou <3 Alright ep. 7.5/10 |
 |
| Interesting. I wasn't sure at first, but I think I'll pick up this series. It might be a fun murder mystery series. |
 |
| Thought the OP couldn't be that good, but I remembered it's amazarashi the second it started and it's pretty nice. The ED is good, too. Not sure how I feel about this so far, but I'm interested. |
 |
| For a class that got their teacher murdered and a student being the suspect, it felt like nothing actually happens. I guess its mood and tone of the series? It should be more like Another honestly. I'd give this series 3 episodes before I decide anything. |
| Here's my reaction: http://imgur.com/gallery/F7Xpbab |
| Haha, I guessed that Kobayashi was a trap when it started. Anyway, it seems interesting. I don't like his friend though... So damn annoying. |

| People are just now complaining about the MC being a trap. Should have already seen it coming with that poster image. Definitely enjoying the mystery aspect to the show. Akechi's gor a backstory, too, considering that flashback we saw with the person saying the same thing as our MC. Loving the ending and the opening is great, too. Dang, this show is good. |
| "Masturbation." ---The End. |
| Interesting start.. I'll gonna continue it OP&ED also good |
| Is this gonna be yaoi, ecchi, or shounen ai? I saw horror and was interested but the artsyle makes me hesitant to watch. I have this rule that if I watch an episode I have to finish it(few sxceptions). I just finished punchline because of this curse.... |
| Also, why is mal so homophobic? I don't get it. Most of you on here are probably anti-social outcast. You'd think people on here would be more open. haha : 3 |
| |
| holy shit this was lame. it's weird how everyone at this school acts like nothing happened one day after the murder. and that new teacher... smh and lol @ the gradient characters. i can understand making background characters like that, but why characters that have dialogue too? it's weird. |
 |
| Decent start. Nakamura's comment: "You're more earnest than your teachers." kinda bug me. As the chief inspector, he should've already been briefed on the victim's bio and the case itself, but still, the comment and the fact that Kobayashi took interested in him at that moment kinda left an impression on me. Also, the conversation between Kobashashi and Akechi early in the show make me feel that they both already foresee that their game will happen. A: This look pretty bad for you, kid. K: *confused but then smile as he understand something* Well, all I need is proof, right? A: *narrow his eye* That you're not the killer, you mean? K: No, proof of who the real killer is. I'm probably reading too much into these but still, it's interesting to think that these might have a purpose. If nothing else, it convey their chemistry well. |
| Well, I'm hooked. Also, I'm calling it now that Kobayashi is a girl pretending to be a guy simply because it's more fun that way. And I will continue to believe this until such time that we are shown Kobayashi shirtless. And also until such a time, I will refuse to even refer to Kobayashi with male pronouns. That's right, my headcanon at this moment is 100% fixed on the idea that Kobayashi is female. |
 |
| The music is good. That's the only thing I liked tbh. I thought it was really boring, the characters are weird but not in a good way (i.e. Baccano!)... I honestly didn't feel any interest for what was going on. |

Maybe it's because some guys are insecure about their sexuality and think that they will turn gay if they watch males ineracting XD. who knows |
 |
| That was definitely an odd anime, which what makes this a bit interesting for me. But I still do not understand with the grayed out background characters. At first I thought the grayed out ones were people who were not that important, but then some girls outside the young detective's office were coloured. So . . . , why? And the dialogue was so bad. It's devoid of interesting thing. And when they tried to be interesting like when the protagonist's friend talking with the young detective, it's so confusing & really boring. What was the point of that conversation anyway? Even the protagonist found it boring & left the conversation. And one more thing, why did the protagonist's friend seemingly hate the young detective? Shion657 said: yeah I don't get it either why so many people on mal are homophobic. Maybe it's because some guys are insecure about their sexuality and think that they will turn gay if they watch males ineracting XD. who knows Or maybe they simply do not like trap character? That's what we call personal taste. Please try to understand. |

| I like anime. |
| Well that's a weird MC! Chairs made of human bodies, it could be a nice horror mystery |

born2biscuit said: Fucking tired of all these gay transgender characters lately. What's the point? The show would probably be better if they just made him a normal guy. Annoys the shit out of me. Aww, whats wrong? Is your boner confused? Stay classy mal. |

| "Kowaretai desu." I will never forget that scene and the delivery of that line. |
eso18 said: Same question here. Everything about him, from his voice to the body type they draw him with with those wide hips (especially noticeable when Hashiba wearing the same uniform is next to him) screams 'girl'. Why not just make him a girl? It would've been so much more natural than this attempt at fujoushi fanservice (because I can't come up with any other reason as to why make him a boy in the first place)The only thing that I can and will complain about is the idea of MC. If they already made him look like a girl, sound like a girl and behave like a girl, what is the point of making him a boy? Otherwise, it looks promising. |

Sherlupin said: is it me or does Akechi look like Nice from Hamatora? He looks like Natsuno from Shiki to me lol. Anyway good start. I like mystery/horror in general and I'm interested with MC's personality. Kinda put me off because he looks like a girl >.< but let's see how this going on. |

“This world we live in is a dream. The dream we have at night is, in fact, the true world. As a fan of murder mysteries, I enjoyed this. That was a nice way to start an episode.  We have a new trap MC to replace Nagisa of AssClass. I love the contrast of Kobayashi looking innocent and harmless but having a cold and detached personality. Looking forward to see how he'll solve that murder next week.  On a differentnote, what kind of teacher wears cat ears? |
