I understand that many people just like torture porn, but this is a bad show,with non-existent premise.
It doesn't show us a beliable tale of bullying with suicide and other things, it shows a non-existenet, cant-existent torture. Nothing make senese in this show, nobody behaves rationally, the only thing is to make Kuze suffer as much as dshe can, even thlough there is not a single conutry or society that would allow thius, and not a sinlge huma being that would not ask for help in this case.
It is not an accident, that the original manga is at 7,7 which makes it a terribly written manga. It is a joke, that pőeople think that a badly written slop is deep because it has suicide in it.
We should strive to create art, that handles this topic well, not create badly written shit, that handles the topic just for fun.
And before something would say, that 7,7 is good, it is the exact same for a manga as 5/10 on IMDB or 65% on rotten tomatoes, it means a mediocre or bad show, and manga is always infltaed, 7,7 means it is hated by even it readers. Yet it is one of the highest rated show of all time, even though nobody thinks it is good, or that this rating will remain.

fenrirr2 said: there is not a single conutry or society that would allow thius You're talking as if there are no cases of students killing themselves because of bullying. No fucking shit society wouldn't condone this, but it happens, it's a reality. Is it really that unbelievable that a kid's dad left their family? That the mother couldn't care less? That they are bullied at school and teachers do nothing about it? All of these things happen in real life. The kid with glasses even tries to help Shizuka, but for someone who has never felt loved their entire life by another human, it's incredibly hard to accept help. Her whole life, she has known nothing but hopelessness. That's all life is for her. Is it really that unbelievable? Go outside every once in a while, read some fucking news or something. You're so detached from reality that you live on another planet. Also, you have no idea how review aggregators like rotten tomatoes work, and you care too much about scores |

| I don't know who infuriated me more in this episode, Marina or Takopii, but at least I got to see Shizuka smile. She deserves the world. That blonde bitch is still dead, she should suffer more though... |
| I hate this Tako so much. But it's wonderful to see Shizuka happy for now. Great episode, can't wait to see what comes next. 5/5 |
| What a way to end the episode. And now, no more resets. Even though she came from an abusive home I was getting sick of Marina anyway lol. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
| I wonder what happens next |

I was hoping Takopi would be able to help both girls. :(
| @Akuyi We were just as naive as Takopii |
| Damn... Chappy is dead |
| The first episode irritated me a little with its dark themes hidden behind a cute facade that it's. frankly, a tad old at this point for animes due to the overuse of this formula since Madoka. However, I found myself engaging a little more about the second episode, probably because the cat was already out of the bag about the real point of the story. It continues having its moments of shock value but I think I have to accept that this is kind of the entire point of the story. Anyway, I really enjoyed the progression. I was worried that we would be stuck in a time loop that would get too repetitive for the audience but the unexpected scene at the end of the episode was such a good moment, specially because of all the anguish that I was I feeling along with Shizuka. However, I feel that this event only will bring more problems since I can see Shizuka being blame for what happened if the village discovers about it. I'm really curious about the direction that the story will take from now on. |

| WTH, the episode really went “this is truly Takopi’s Original Sin”. Like Marina, I didn’t see that coming because I thought his original sin was breaking the rule about lending Happy Devices unattended. I’m now very interested on what happens next. The way Shizuka reacted after “that” was unsettling, yet very plausible. I’m typically annoyed by people who act like Takopi (aka Pollyannas), but the way his character is portrayed is very cathartic, as if it validates why the way he sees things just doesn’t work in the long run, because he just does not get it. The way this anime showed Shizuka’s despair is some of the best. Period. It really feels so hopeless and dejected and tragic. |
| I understand people who think this anime is too edgy but it's just showing how bullying and circumstances outside of a child's control can lead to the worst outcome, in this case for both girls. |
| Go read Berserk and One Piece they're the best thing ever |
| I wasn't expecting for this to happen. Holy shit! And to see Shizuka genuinely happy to see Marina dead was wild. That was not the reaction I was expecting. Like I thought, this show is basically Oyasumi Punpun 2.0. Batshit insane, but incredibly engaging somehow. |

| I was not expecting that development... I'm so glad I didn't read the source material. That was an episode which will probably stay in my mind for a while. The entire scene where Shizuka was happy because of Marina's death, I was expecting it to just be a very very dark, and very very temporary bit of comedy. They're playing Vivaldi's Spring, for goodness's sake! Then the episode ended, and the laugh I was too unsure to ever let out died inside my mouth. A lot of people are discussing whether or not Marina had it coming. I personally feel like there's really not much reason for anybody to celebrate any deaths; Marina died, yes, but she definitely did not deserve to die. It's made blatantly clear in this show that every single child is immature and is trying their best to deal with the problems surrounding them – while the adults who should be responsible are not. Shizuka is overjoyed about Marina's death not because she's a sociopath, but because she's too young to understand the implications of murder. Naoki tries to help Shizuka but never commits not because he's a coward, but because he's too young to deal with such issues. Similarly, Marina remains a bully not because she's a psychopath, but because she only thinks about things from her own perspective – like every child does, reducing Shizuka to an coping mechanism / outlet for her worst emotions. In a sense, every child in this show is like Takopii; they don't understand the problems they deal with, but they try to cope anyways for better or for worse. This isn't to defend Marina's actions; I'm just saying that it is probably best to treat every child in this show as being slightly off of the typical morality spectrum. It's the adults who are immoral for being so neglectful. |
| The fact Shizuka smiled after seeing Marina die in front of her was the best indicator on how screwed up her mental state was, but what made this stand out is that the time loop mechanic was broken, the once innocent Takopii has now murdered someone, and as Shizuka reinforced that behavior, I cannot help but think Takopii will have a noticeable body count by the end. I wonder now how will this end? |
