On the bright side, the ED was super awesome! (and catchy)

I skipped the ED because I was in a state of denial starting when Tokaku decided she had to kill Haru so that Haru wouldn't feel bad about herself, and the ED forced me to face reality.

Fuck this show. I'm not even kidding, drills bitch had a better reason for wanting to kill Haru than Tokaku did.

This anime was such a huge slap in the face, I watched from episode 1-12 in one sitting hoping it would be good. (which it was for a few episodes.)
The end really really killed it for me. If they just left it as a tragedy end for Haru I would've given this anime like a 7 or even a 8 if i feel nice.
However, with this dragonball revival magic end they did I had to drop it all the way to a 5 because it literally makes ZERO sense.
I'm guessing Tokaku's wish was probably to revive everyone again because they can grant "any wish" but even still it just wasn't right.

My final words:
Nio is best character.

I guess, this was Tokaku's wish and it was possible to grant so.
Doesn't make sense any other way really. o-o

I have no idea how i feel about this ending. It was a mix of:
"WOW, didn't see that coming!" And "wow...Totally saw THAT coming"
I really liked the ending sequence showing where everyone was. Helped with the closure a little. Was quite glad to see my two favorites were doing well.

For a show that I thought started off rather weak, i think it really pulled together in the last few.

I really liked the ending. It was the good end where everyone is alive and happy or somewhat in that sense. Bittersweet?

The poison that Angel Trumpet used was probably non-lethal which would explain why they are still alive and well. Its kinda unrealistic to recover from a knife thrust in your chest but I guess the anime skips forward a bit to where everyone is out of the hospital and recovered.

Not really any complaints about this anime. I would've enjoyed more yuri. I always thought the reason why Tokaku protected Haru was because she was in love with her (its not really mentioned but hinted towards).

Ending was...OK? I was puzzled. I liked that it was the real Tokaku going at Haru and Nio coming to the rescue. I really really liked that Haru defended herself throughout the series. She's not just a passive damsel in distress.

And OMG OMG I was soooo hyped when she charged Tokaku with the knive!! ''I'll live not matter what!''

But after that, the waaaaay too happy ending really bugged me. It doesn't need to be a tragedy. Both characters could have survived and make amend, I guess. But it was overlooked.

This show was OK? It had it moments. I thought it was clear nobody died but judging by the comments I guess it wasn't? The ending wasn't really confusing, rather it was put together poorly. I'm not going to knock it too much since the action scenes were decent and I did enjoy the mains for the most part. Not going to recommend it to anyone but I'm also not going to get butt hurt like some people. Somewhat enjoyable in the end.

This ending was actually quite good if you ask me to finish this series off, pretty much made me up this with one point, in general it's still rather lacking of a proper flow and plot but in general it was pretty average.

Yeah, that became sort of obvious even before the end. They were probably trying to keep the demographic as wide as possible, thus not blatantly stating it.

Overall good series, started to get a little disappointing as I went on, and the ending felt like they were trolling me. But I gave it an 8/10 anyway. May change it to 7 later. Would have liked it better if it was more canon.

Watched all 12 episodes in 1 go but my interest gradually dropped by every passing episode.

1 Why didn't anyone die? (Really bothered me)
- Juliet got stabbed in the heart and Romeo drank poison.
- Rio and Haru both were stabbed.

2 Why did this anime had to be set up in a high school? If the all characters staying in a hotel, there wouldn't be any difference.

3 To me, we didn't get any character development except for a little bit for Tokaku. I didn't get attached to the characters because it is pretty much 1 character per episode and besides that we don't see them.

4 The story isn't compelling to watch after episode 3 because you pretty much already know what's going to happen. Every episode Haru and Tokaku face 1 assassin except like once it were 2 at the same time. In this one episode, we get to see the poor tragic backstory of the assassin in question and we get to see her method of assassination, which will fail because if it did, the series would have ended. With that in mind, there is no excitement because you know the assassin will fail.

To me, you should watch the first 2 episodes and then skip to episode 10 because nothing happens as explained at point 4.
I gave it an average of 5/10.

I don't think the ending was real, it was probably the afterlife or something.

How on earth did Romeo and Juliet survive?!? I'm no doctor but I'm pretty sure drinking that much poision should kill you.

Still, the happy ending was nice... I guess.

Wth was with that ending... I don't mind happy endings but it definitely did not fit in this kind of anime and setting........

I was disappointed that Tokaku didn't kill anyone in the end since she looks so evil in the opening

it would have been a good anime if the ending wasn't so much of a troll and it was better explained. like wth is with the shaman thing? kaiba was also really retarded and none of the other riddles demonstrated much apart from the first 2
I like the darkness.


There’s something to the feeling of not knowing your surroundings, not seeing the colour of things as they appear, but as they truly are. There’s something about the unknown, the quiet, the cold. There’s something unspoken about the dark, something I can never quite put words to. Something terrifying yet beautiful.

Seriously? A happy ending? Did Asuma wish for the time to turn back or everything was just lucky coincidence?

Oh, pitiful shadow cloaked in darkness.

wtf? I like happy endings but there is no explanation for how some of them survived. There should be a better explanation or made some of their death scenes less dramatic. Even a few lines of the principal lady saying that she'd revive some of them would be okay. The only thing good is that my yuri OTP survived. But literally did Shinya fade away or something? I'm not okay with that.

This anime just seemed to be obsessed with being all things to all people in the last episode.
1. Tokaku "wins" class black
2. Haru "wins" class black
3. All the assassins are defeated or dead
4. All the assassins are alive
5. Tokaku proves her free will by killing Haru and is given the "whatever you desire" reward
6. Tokaku proves her friendship by desiring for Haru to be alive
This was just a jumble of improbable situations. Oh well.....I hung in there to the end and gave it a 6/10 rating.

I was so confused with the entire episode. I thought nio wanted to kill her, but then haru goes and attacks tokaku? She had just said something along the lines of "why would i want to kill her if i've been protecting her all this time". The entire tokaku vs tokaku nio fight was confusing as fuck, considering the cut from almost getting shot wasn't on nios face so I couldn't tell the difference. Did I miss something important?

I was confused which Tokaku was which.

Titanium ribs? What the bloody hell is that?

Im glad that diomedia showed everyone aftermath but Namatame and Hitsugi alive is way ridiculos.

The ending should be better Haru staying dead but somehow this episode is forgiven and I dont complain at all.

Thought of this anime as mainstream before I watched it.
