And seriously these names are dumb. Like why Lovepon? Also had some funny moments. There was also hints that this might be something more psychological,which im all up for. And was anybody else happy when she threw up on the bus driver? He had it coming When this was first announced I thought the names were stupid too, but it seems those are their screen names online that they're planning to use as new identities. I find that actually really interesting because it can kind of tell us what types of people they are based on what they've chosen |
 |
| On the fence about this one, it's pretty interesting however. The talking is pretty fast, and they move through scenes like its 2x speed. Gotta keep your eyes glued to the screen for most of this episode or you'll miss a lot. As for the characters, there tons of them. Each have their own quirks but for the most part, they are all on the crazy side. Really hasn't been any level headed characters introduced yet, but I guess we will need to see more. Had a very eerie feel to it, it doesn't look like many of the characters are emotionally stable. And I thought one of them might start killing already. Will keep watching, so far it's entertaining |

| Very interested in this one just after 1 episode..alot of weird things happening. Went frame by frame for some of the scenes. For some reason this show gave off those "Another" vibes from the very beginning. The atmosphere got really tense and creepy at the end. 4/5 im a sucker for shows like these so i will keep watching. |
| Love the first episode, hooked me on already. A bus with group of people driving in to abandoned village at night. Perfect setting for a horror. And plenty of suspense. The creepy feeling is everywhere with the songs they sing and stuff they talk about. I can also feel plenty of drama from these people. So far so good! Though the massive amounts of character might hurt the show depending on if they plan on if the show wanting to develop all of them or use they as supporting cast for the MC's development. So far, I think it might be in between where they all get a bit of development but primarily to further the main character. We'll see how it plays out. Very promising, I'll tell my friends about this one for sure. |
 |
| Damn, so many characters introduced in the first several minutes. I'm pretty sure a lot of them will start dying soon (maybe next episode?) and I was actually expecting at least one or two deaths by the end of this episode. It looks like they're using online aliases rather than their real names, which I guess explains why their names are so weird. Well this show has my interest so far, so I hope the rest of it is decent. Also, those songs they were singing were creepy as hell........ |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| Really liking this show's tone, kinda dislike the main character though he's too obnoxious. Pretty interesting start i hope they fleshed out these 30 characters well in 12 episode. |
 |
| @Shonase Thanks! --- Everyone's kinda cuckoo bonkers xD Hayato and Lion 'seem' kinda sane. I was like guys THIS IS A SCAM!! GTFO of there!! LOL ORE NO NAMAE WA JACCCCK!!! |

| That's a promising start. Lots of characters with nicknames. I could feel that it is rushed. Looking forward to see the next few episodes. |
| I don't like this first episode at all. I get that it's just starting and everyone is strangers but they're literally just talking just to talk. There isn't any emotions and actors are just reading their lines and everything is happening all at once. How do they expect us to remember all these characters??? Their intros were garbage. Not memorable at all I was really excited for this show too... |
end my suffering |
| Dang that huge cast. The online names were funny though. Hmm idk so far, I think the premise is interesting, but the pacing/tone changes felt really off to me in this episode. It goes from suspenseful music to hippopotamus song, and overall, just a lot of dialogue and not much breathing space. But it could be intentional, to throw us (or just me) off, starting off in such a way. I feel like there's also some psychological aspect going on, with Mitsumune's odd...(day) dream? Hallucination? That was the creepiest part. I do like the use of the bgm though, it builds on the atmosphere and tension. The character designs are cute too (although this anime clearly isn't going to be cute). We'll see how it goes. I'm still interested as I was when it was first announced. Feels like a psychological thriller, not sure yet. |
| That was certainly.... Something. |
 |
| Lol. Lion's seiyuu is airi's voice from oni chichi gg |
| Not bad introducing the cast all at once but I can already tell that I won't remember most of their names though xD Really liking the little cliques that are starting to form and so far the only characters that rubbed me the wrong way are the bus driver and that one dude thats trying to be the leader I'm curious to find out more about this village though and judging by the time and foreshadowing, I can tell that shit will most likely get real in the next episode |
| Pretty good start to the series. Lot of introductions as well as some insight into a few characters. The bus driver literally went crazy after getting pissed off. This village seems like an interesting but ominous place shrouded with mystery, Lot of theories on it as well. I'm not sure if they'll be able to develop all these characters within a single cour. I suppose we might see a lot of sudden deaths. The OST along with that dark shroud across the bridge created a real tense atmosphere at the end. Hope this turns out well :D |
 |
| It really is a brain game, starting with remembering all the passenger's name just by watching it once. can you? |

| So many characters OMG. |
| More than one biblical reference. We'll probably see more of that. Interesting plot so far, but the characters all seem pretty flat. Hopefully they'll get explored. |
| Signature removed for being too cool. That signature was too cool. Please make something less cool to use, following stuff defined in the Site & Forum Guidlines. |
| I can already feel it, some crazy shit is gonna happen. I will say this show managed to put on very eerie vibe well! Hyped to see where this goes |

| I expected people dying left and right already... so far I guess our mains are Mitsumune, Speedstar, Masaki, Lion and that Valkana dude. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Lion best character <3 But yeah I can feel like I can already tell where this anime is going. Some things that are bothering me : the awkward pacing. suspensful and then not and then it is. Like...it just doesnt feel right. And the music. The music is different but it doesnt seem to fit the atmosphere that much I can get over that though. Hopefully this anime wont disappoint me! I came in with no expectations so we'll see how it goes :D |

| I think it's a waste to go for specific mcs in this type of show.From that you can guess ( in most cases ) who survives the most. Way too many characters , easy to forget. The VA was average too and op awfull. Guess i will wait till the elimnation process and see if they have the guts to kill the mc . |
 |
| HYPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great atmosphere. Interesting characters. Although I have a feeling that it wont be that great. Promising first episode. |
| Maybe it wont be them killing the mc but the mc killing them LOL |
|
| I got a very good first impression of jack, my early favorite. Great first episode. |
Slowpoke_ said: Maybe it wont be them killing the mc but the mc killing them LOL By "them" i meant the story creators. For what i see he will ( proably ) be the " all friendly 10 episodes until he sees that you need to live for yourself " type of mc |
|
| Well that was something. The show's got my interest so far, and I just hope it doesn't screw it up. The cast though, damn. Feels like Survivor/Total Drama more than anything else. |
| Wow, I really liked it! Excellent build-up in just one episode! Creepy nursery songs and creepy meh characters :) When the bus took the turn on the bridge, I cringed, lol. Please, stay good. Twelve episodes seem a bit insufficient for the potential development, but let's give it some hype - it was properly earned. |
Burger-Meister said: Well that was something. The show's got my interest so far, and I just hope it doesn't screw it up. The cast though, damn. Feels like Survivor/Total Drama more than anything else. Same. I couldn't help but remember back to TDI with all those introductions. Really interested in how this will go. By the OP, it seems like there were will be multiple groups, but will they be fighting each other or some unknown entity. We'll see I guess. |
| This show shows some promise. It's got my attention but that song was just creepy... The opening song is alright and the ending song is meh. I hope this anime works out well. |
| Pretty average, tons of character introductions, didn't get any feeling of tension or horror so far. Lion and the Speedstar kid are my favorites so far. Dislike the MC and that vomiting girl. Hope they focus on other characters well and ramp up the tension as this goes on :/ |
| Promising, though I've given it a 3/5, since I thought the pacing was really quick after the characters were introduced. Almost like they were trying to cram so much into one episode, even so, stuff that didn't make too much sense. Just an introduction though, and definitely made me want to watch more. Things that really caught my eye was the soundtrack throughout the episode, especially the eerie song the mysterious girl was singing towards the end. Art and animation is really good as well. Although the opening and ending themes sounded really generic, they weren't half bad. karlstein12 said: This has that eerie feel about it like a proper suspense show, and has that similarity with Subete ga F ni Naru: The Perfect Insider in its atmosphere. Can definitely agree with this! I'm only 3 episodes into The Perfect Insider (oops), and this show has a similar feel to drawing your attention in and getting you to come back for another episode. I hope they show consistency with that throughout the anime. |
  |
| That was quite something. I really don't know what to think about it. I think the show is promising, but I did had some problems here and there. Im gonna keep watching it though. Cretaions said: I knew it. I fuckin knew it.Lol. Lion's seiyuu is airi's voice from oni chichi gg |
 NasalShark said: I'd love to squeeze your nipples until they look like a purple slushie, Senpai. |
| Makes me feel like they all committed suicide and are all on one happy bus to the afterlife. Liked the overall feel, good assortment of characters, dat fuckin' hippopotamus song. This will be a good show for theories - and mystery is listed :) 4/5 |
  |
| hmm... not a bad episode... too much character and they are using online names, except Mitsumune maybe... that Valkana guy really annoying... ok to the next episode... |

| It's got an interesting start by I'm weary of how many characters there are. Let's see what happens. 4/5 |
 "There are three things you can never get back: The word after it's said, the moment after it's missed, and the time after it's gone." -Koe no Katachi  |
| Lion and Jack are the best characters so far in my opinion. The way Jack took control of the situation was pretty badass. As pointed out by the Key Visuals, it seems like when shit hits the fan it happens over a period of one day. The first pic looks like early morning and the fourth pic is at night. The atmosphere gives off a very eerie vibe so you can easily tell bad things are going to happen. Especially with all the creepy songs and psychological breakdowns of the characters. |
 |
| I'm not going to remember any of these characters' names, there's way too many introduced at once that I just don't care for them right now. Unless people start dying left and right (for real), or they indeed have their own individual personalities, I don't think I'm going to be invested in this. Really, the number of characters (31 off the bat!) and the fact it's 12 episodes are both raising red flags in my mind. I understand that it's hard to juggle a large cast, but I don't feel this was a good way to introduce these characters when there's no real way for me to tell them apart at a glance. I don't know, maybe this would work out better in literary format as it can guarantee there's less limitations than it will have as an anime. The show better really get its shit together, or that's going to hurt it. |
  |
| Eerie... I'm sure they're all going to start being picked off so I'm going to try not to become attached to anyone. |
| Yeah I don't care but I'm going to pick Lion as my favorite character. Loli in a lion hoodie with a badass attitude, I can't resist it. Everyone else seems all shades of both cool and creepy. This is one of the big anime I'm looking forward to from the Spring anime season. |
 |
| Seems like this will be one of those: "Don't trust anyone" type of anime with a "be careful what you wish for" feel. I'm pretty sure they all have a death flag right now, we just don't know the order of who is gonna be killed. That's just the vibe I'm feeling off this anime though. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
