Another one died. I think Fukawa is the Genecider Syo and the murderer of Chihiro.
Anyway, Chihiro's voice sounded like a male~ ._.

Aw, man, way to destroy the Genocider Syo mystery. This anime seriously needs mroe episodes to develop characters and atmosphere, the pacing is terrible.

yeah even coming from someone has not played hte game even i can see this is being rushed, you don't have time for anything, i can see this becoming a pattern (hope it doesn't)

someone dies > investigation > trial > little bit of time to recover > repeat

but you know what im okay with that, i respect that there trying their best to cram a full game into 13 episodes so heck, just going to try and enjoy it see some death and trials and shizzle.... ive watched worse, and for more episodes!

11 people remain! Pretty nice development, the character that died didn't really had that much potential imo but well lets see who's the killer this time!

Lol that Opening xD

Poor Chihiro :( her death would have had more impact if she had a better character development but oh well.

Oh this is really exciting and yeah it was kinda rushed but still I'm enjoying it :D

My thoughts are correct but i have yet to know the culprit.

R.I.P Chihiro

And on the Class Trial.

The culprit is most probably a guy because it seems pretty clear to me that the girls and boys rooms are switched. If you look earlier in the episode, the girls room is on the left.

Yet later in the episode the girls room is on the right. This would explain why the pictures and carpet are switched. They are mistaking the boys room with the girls room. Therefore the culprit should be a guy.

However I have yet to make sense of all the evidence. Like how are the extra phones involved? The person who did the murder must have a lot of pride. We don't have clear alibi's yet though so it is hard to tell. I am guessing the delinquent and honor guy will create an alibi for each other since they were with each other during the murder. (it is hard to think that they could work together with this murder since one of them would have to lose then).

This leaves the fat dude and the rich kid. The MC cannot be the murderer. I think these are the only two guys that could have done it. It is suspicious that the rich kid found the body so quickly so I think it is probable he is the culprit. This is especially the case because he plans on framing the annoying book worm for the murder in saying that she was a serial killer before this and committed her usual crime. But that cannot be the case since the murderer is most probably the guy. He is probably the culprit.

Mondo reminds me of kuwabara fromyu yu hakushou with the hair and always wanting to fight attitude. Overall this was a good episode. I feel like I put enough pieces together to know who the killer is but knowing this anime I could very well be wrong. I'm marathoning this so I'll know if I was right in about 24 mins. My guess is either the fat guy or the chick who wont come out her room.

Idk why but I lol at your post. Probably because its true. No fucks were given when she got killed.

Wohoo, if I didn't play the game in psp, then I'm sure I'll be more intrigue about the identity of the culprit. But since I played it, I already know the answer.

Wow, she was killed instantly. At least she didn't suffer. Wow would the bear want to release their embarrassing stories the world. Wouldn't that reveal what he's doing to these kids? I think either the fat guy or the bookworm girl killed her. That's just a guess. I wonder who did it. Still enjoying the show even though it's being rushed as hell. But hey there's a game so it's fine.

This is good example of episode that shows just how poorly they handled things in this anime. The scene where Celes got angry about the milk was meant to be disturbing but in the anime it's quickly brushed off and played just for laugh's pretty much.

Poor Fujisaki, R.I.P... :( He was cute, with all his female clothes he definitely came off as a girl but it's so obvious he's a guy from episode 1 the second he was shown, he has a guys voice lol...IDK how that would correlate into him getting killed but I know it's gotta be some secret to be revealed but I will call him a he until proven wrong. :3

Gotta watch next episode now to see who killed him, wonder if it was another guy or if a girl did it this time...

This show, guys, is fun.

I quite can't stand Togami, he's trying to grow up the hate.

I like the character design, and the "Swim Freak" is freaking hot.

Odd that the girls locker room would have the picture of the girl and the boys of a boyband. That's not right.

Lol, Naegi was all naked and emo in the shower at the start.

That girl was kinda boring anyways.

Togami is awesome and hot, I can see why braids likes him although she was weird when she thought it was nice he told her to shower lol.

Plus who was reading about that killer beforehand? he was but what the girl at the end said confused me unless she saw him reading it or she's really the killer and has split personality, who knows.

I also found it odd how he knew just where to look for the body.

The Dragonball reference lol.

I don't know why but Fujisaki's voice sounds weird... like almost a masculine voice trying to sound feminine? I think Fujisaki's secret is


I'm really curious as to who this Syo perosn is.

Also that megane girl going gaga over Togami. Handsome, rich and sophisticated.

Why a Makoto shower scene and not a Kyouko shower scene?

LAWD! Kyouko legs.
Touko creeping on Togami.
LMAO at Touko.
Fujisaki is dead. That girl on the poster is fine.
That girl on the poster is so fine. Remove the blood so I can see her face clearly.
Genocider Syo?

I think this was around the point I started liking Aoi. Kyouko and Celestia were my episode 1 favourites due to being most logical, and a bit nutty at the same time in Celestia's case. With Sayaka I'm probably in a minority for respecting that she was the first one who actually tried to be proactive after they were shown the video clips - realistically speaking if yours choices are to kill one stranger or leave several people close to you to presumably be killed, it's a tough choice, but has to be made. Unfortunately the fact that she was actually decent lead to her hesitation and getting killed.

First episodes aside though Aoi is the one I got gradually more and more invested in as a character, not only because she's cute, but because her attitude isn't actually fake, which is the general assumption I make with people who seem immediately nice. So that's probably one of the reasons this anime works for me, with any killing game kind of scenario it's really matters if there's characters you give a crap about
