I enjoyed the plot of the story very much. People sentenced to a real life scenario of be or be killed is great. I love how it was based on a video game and not in an actual video game. It made the story line more riviting with just that one new fact. I also liked that they fought with bombs it was an innovative method of fighting I have never seen in a show unlike Swords and guns which are too overplayed.
I understand the show only had 12 episodes (needs more!) But I thought everything happened too fast and the characters bonds didn't show enough growth during a longer period of time. They kinda just suddenly changed an evolved dramatically. I felt like they could have done so much more with the characters, but then again twelve episodes isn't too much time.
