This anime is by far the most disturbing and gory thing I've ever seen. Typically that's not my cup of tea, I prefer the more cheerful stuff. However, this anime still manages to impress me and kept me wanting to watch more to see the final conclusion of the story.
The story itself is very dark and also has a pretty big plot hole if you are paying attention, but it's still overall enjoyable.
The gore is insanely over the top, but not in a cartoony way, instead it's very upsetting to watch (which is what they were going for). And every time you think
...
to yourself "oh they wont go there..." they 1up you and show you something far worse. Aside from the gore, I really like the atmosphere the anime gives, it really puts you in the school and makes you feel a part of the anime, almost like a video game.
The characters don't have too much depth, but aren't too shallow either. An immersion breaking moment is when one character starts to see horrible things in the scenery for the first time, but continues without batting an eye or saying anything, which made me laugh out loud at how outrageous the situation was.
Overall, if you want to watch a horror movie, pull up and watch this 4 episode series instead. It's about the same length as a real movie, and I guarantee it to be way more potent than anything in the theatres.
