The art style is really nice it's kind of like The Tatami Galaxy which was also animated by Madhouse. This anime seems pretty ambitious and it's also a lot like Lord of the Flies. I'm expecting betrayal, drama, and some fights with the students powers.

Stop!! Hibari-kun! reference??? That's a really old and obscure manga/anime. But I'm impressed with myself because I actually watched the whole anime. Guess I'm one of the "8,013" MyAnimeList users who got the reference haha.

BIG Lord of the Flies vibe though. I'm all for it.

I don't know how I found out about this series or why I'm watching it. After episode 1, I don't even know what I just watched tbh. So many questions.

Lots of interesting-looking characters. Excited to see where it goes and how everyone continues to interact. Also, incredible artstyle. Tryna think of what it reminds me of. A little bit of Devilman: Crybaby perhaps? I'm not too knowledgeable about studios.
Edit: Looked it up and saw they did Tokyo Godfathers, which I was actually thinking throughout the animation -- that the expressions and fluidity were quite similar.

Hmmm, very interesting to say the least. I like how we're immediately thrown into this predicament, and right away we begin with how the trapped students are dealing with this little, issue. I like the lack of music, and the fluid animation.

This can easily be a turn-off for many people, but I for one am very curious to see what's in store, and to see how events will continue to unfold. A lot has happened already even in the first episode. There's a story to tell here and I'm sure it's going to have no room for any downtime.

I guess my enjoyment of this show will depend on how annoying I find the main characters and if the metaphors they are going for aren't too boring.
This was nice.

An intriguing plot and beginning concept without a whole lot going on.

The start to an amazing piece of art. It has a lot of subtlety and a lot of deeper concepts. I love the english dub of this anime, and the world they are thrust into makes the psychological aspects of the show very interesting.

The plot felt somewhat all over the place, and I bet the rest of the episodes would have a similar feel. I don't expect a mind-blowing story here, but maybe we'll get some cool moments of inspiration. I get that not everyone will dig this style, but personally, I'm pretty chill with it.

It's not typical cookie-cutter stuff, which is refreshing. Watching the whole episode still gave me a unique experience, and there were some seriously stunning visuals to enjoy. Now, as for the plot, my guess is that the school disappearing has something to do with the MC's subconscious desire to escape to another world. Have to keep watching to find out.

I loved the first episode.Its a great start and its actually made me interested at story and what is gonna be next.The animation style is very beautiful and kind of idk how to explain it but it suits to the concept.
I hope they not gonna ruin the story because this type of storys is can be easily ruined with stupid plot holes.

This is going to be interesting, a shame I did not watch it when it aired, as I will likely not read much of the discussion here when I binge watch it.

Animation is reminding me of devil man. I dont even like or dislike it, it just works.

Okay world is very interesting like the premise and it's really well done so far it got be hooked. The characters though are just okay so far I like the idea of someone power hungry and a person pulling the strings that guy who lead the revolution is decent and the Main boy is okay, that blue shirted girl though I don't like everything she's done this episode has been illogical and stupid she has no logical and seems like the only thing she does is hate rules, why? There vital. Yeah don't understand the girl and the MC was a bit bland but the main thing is the situation and premise. Loved the animation
You know the British Empire was pretty cool, we definitely peaked with it.
Thank you I will not be answering or expanding on anything and have good day

Everyone says this series is amazing, before watching it the art looked amazing, and after watching the first chapter I agree that it is one of the best animes ever made, it could have ended in this episode and still be amazing. This episode is a masterpiece. 10/10.
