lmao as soon as I saw the cat I knew it was gonna get killed

being presented with such over the top suffering right from the beginning is emotionally numbing and really makes it difficult to feel anything at all for the characters.

I feel bad for Aya, so it makes me happy that those fucking bullies and that rapist were dead. Now it's her brother's turn. Fuck him! Jesus Christ.

RIP to that Neko-chan. ;-;

I FUCKING KNEW THIS SHOW IS GONNA GO MAHOU SHOUJO TO ME, BUT THIS ANIME IS DARKER. HOLY SHIT. That was a hell of a first episode.

5/5. <3

With all these cute little girls, there was already a bunch on sperm everywhere( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Jokes aside, the ending was weird but the anime wasn't too be bad.
A little cookie cutter-y in regards to the "dark" magical girl genre, but i still enjoyed it.

I love the dark mahou shoujo genre that's gaining popularity at the moment but this is some heavy shit. Especially for a first episode. Not a fan of the bullies getting instant killed though. They needed a more painful death!

LMAO this trash was hilarious. It seems like the writer could not decide which bully trope he was going to use and ended going for all of them. Mean Girls, sadistic Oni-chan and Rapist-Senpai. The the other girl is able to use Za Warudo.

It's also good to see that Frieza has found work after DBS.

Lol, I never see this much edge in one episode.

Seriously, when author goes WAYYYY overboard to write this scenario, it's hard to take it seriously anymore. Wow ho, family, classmates, teachers all stack against her and no police is involved, what a coincident~~

I feel much sader when the situation presented is more believable, such as female mc in Erased.
At this rate, I just start laughing when I see these ridiculous scenario happens.

I hope the Director makes an anime about the hell true story of Junko Furuta who was a 17-year-old Japanese high school student who was abducted, tortured, raped, and murdered in the late 1980s.

Approximately 100 people knew about Junko Furuta’s captivity, but either did nothing about it or themselves participated in the torture and murder.

Besides the premise that was kinda interesting and the lazy teacher I liked, I couldn't enjoy this anime at all.The bullying was overdramatic and just terrible.I mean I'm not against anime with themes about depression and such, however I hate anime that are like this.The animation quality and the directing where also god awful.I think it's just a another edgy madoka magica clone.Depressing storys aren't working like this.You cannot just pace the hole episode with tragic events (nonesense torture), shallow thoughs and conversations and say it's deep or meaningfull.Depression storys are like a roller coaster.You need time, ups and downs so the events actual matters.It's just dumb torture porn so far with below average directing, animation and semi interesting plot, but I still give it a try...

Honestly if I was the MC, I would have already killed those 3. The worst part was the cat, why did they have to do that.... How can you be so retarded to bully someone and even kill a cat. This episode got me furious, but yeah, it could turn out decent tho, so I won't drop it.

I guess bullying like that really happens in real life. The people around the MC are partially to blame for her predicament but she doesn't help herself either.

The death of the bullies was fun to watch. I'd love a show entirely dedicated to torturing and murdering them.

I dunno I think this series is trying to show that these girls are just that twisted, she probably would have killed the cat regardless of whether or not Aya was attached to it, and I also can't imagine someone like Aya being the type to kill someone, especially not after the guilt she experienced from doing so, so I think so far this series isn't to far outside the realms of possibility, but I will agree with you, this series could become better later on, though to be fair I think its pretty good already

Yeah this show pretty much did pile on all the tragedy WAY to early on, I figure it would have been better to have the main character become a magical girl first, make that situation with Shota seem like a one of incident THEN reveal that the character had been bullied for a while and had a sick twisted brother, though thats just me and thats probably not what this series is going for

I think I've became soft.
I read a few chapters of the manga a long time ago and I remember the beggining being terrible for the girl but it was your typical edgy stuff, this time tho it gave me a stomach ache. Idk if it's because there's sound now, or if it's cause I stopped watching this type of anime but I felt pretty bad. Bullying always awakens the worst in me, I just wish everyone dies a terrible death, so in the end seeing some of the bullies getting what they deserve is satisfying.
That's really a mean spirited show.
It kinda reminds me of Jigoku Shoujo in a way, but there's so many shitty people we need a magical girl army instead.
Can't wait for the brother to suffer, hopefully it won't take long.

Now time to watch the show that will make me feel better: Amanchu.

Once again, I HAD to go check what would never turn out to be a good read for my mental health...

That shit was crude to say the least, I'd NEVER watch an anime based on that.

Way too stupid for me. Dropped it. I was really looking forward to this anime as well. It was wayyyy too over the top and unrealistic- and I am willing to expand my disbelief a hell of a lot, but every single character being a cold blooded psychopath or a stupid dumbass (not to mention the lack of a transformation outfit T_T RIP) made absolutely no sense.

Looks like they're just riding the edgy magical girl hype train, but hey, at least the edgy 14-year-old kids watching will get a kick out of it.

I completely agree! When I saw how crammed her shoes were with razors blades and the like I choked on my coffee it was so fucking funny.

You're really telling me those bitches sat for hours prying blades out of razors just for that? And what sane person, bully or otherwise, straight up kills a cat whilst inviting an upperclassman to rape a girl?

I'm not saying people capable of that stuff don't exist, but i'm pretty sure there's not such a high density of them, who happen to be friends, who happen to hound one specific girl, in such a public manner at. SMH.

Also, how the fuck do her parents not hear her getting the shit kicked out of her??? Where is her brother finding industrial standard rope???

I give up.

Yep, definitely not for me, oh it's not about the intense stuff that was happening in the show but the amount of forced out stuff that's been going on in the show such as:
- the girl gets bullied to the extreme and she's like meh I just wanna die k bye~ instead of just you know? think of a way that can actually get her out of her shitty situation?
- Only when she realized she killed people.. Only then she started using her noggin to analyze wtf just happened..
- The Cat death scene was no way worse than in elfen lied! Here the cat dies off camera, in elfen lied you get to see the brutality that the dog is getting killed.
- this show is nowhere near the level of madoka lol

If you enjoy this then by all means enjoy it, as for me there are far better shows that I need catching up with~

Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, I'm just generalising, if you like the show and can ignore its (subjective) flaws then go ahead and enjoy it guilt free, my friend. It's just not for me.

Knowing the case of Junko Furuta, I don't think the mc's situation is as exaggerated as what the others say.

Not saying that the show doesn't have problems though. Anyhow, the first episode is interesting enough for me to look forward for the next episodes. I hope it'll get good!

This may be the case in other less developed country , but the point is it's way over the top.

Seriously, it's not the 4 trashes in the show that make it unbelievable, it's that EVERYONE in the show being cold blooded cunts and the mc takes no action at all in modern Japan is what makes it unbelievable. If he's abused this much, the other classmates should have known already, and police/ education department would already have taken actions.
It is not those hidden abuse, it's way too over the top and obvious that it's hard to hide anymore, yet every other individuals act indifferent.

Well, it focuses too much on the edge instead of depression, which is exactly the point.

Well, no, actually it reminded me that I was long due the 2018 rewatch of K-On, so I dropped this after five minutes and am now in episode 4 of the first season. Thank you Mahou Shoujo Site!


I still cry when they change the second seasons end theme to No Thank You and that melancholy opening starts cause I know it's almost over...

Still wish there was a third season but I have the follow up manga so that's good enough.

Still don't know how this reminded you to re-watch K-On though...

Wow, this was... probably the worst first episode I've seen so far this season. I can't remember the last time I wanted to drop an anime just half-way through the FIRST episode O.o

Anyway, yeah, this was really not very good. Why do writers still try to have their cake and fk it by trying to marry cuteness and grim darkness? Yes, Madoka Magika was sort of everyone's darling for a while. Yes, Gakkou Gurashi executed it amazingly. But just because two writers managed to figure out a way to pull it off, that doesn't mean that it's a good formula :|

Maybe this'll improve in the future, most likely not. We'll see.

Usually I do not like maho shoujo because of qeerbaiting and silly stock messages, you know, but for me personally it looks pretty promising. Including because this show reminded me of Higurashi and Another. So, I hope that my first impression will not be wrong... and they will reach the scene with a kiss, yeah :3
