Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (8/12 eps)
There are two reasons that would make u want to write a review on MAL, at most cases it's either a review for an anime you enjoyed so much that you had to give it a review or watched one that made u regret ever watching it...and for me it was the later ...

Never in my life did I think I'd encounter an anime so hateful that I would wish I never even watched it!

I've watched a couple of bad animes as in poor plot or characters, but never came to hate them at least there was a character or two to love or there would be a lot of funny moments to make up for it

But this show is just different... it was different in so many ways

I have to say I started watching the anime cause I was bored and was looking for an easy laugh, so I searched high school anime and the title caught my eye, the Synopsis made me think it'll be a simple straight forward anime and it was short so I clicked on the first episode.

The story started lightly, typical high school setting, the pacing was fine but at first it felt generic, like any normal high school anime would be...it was around episode 6 that I found my self thinking "Shit just got serious!"
From then on I knew for sure that this wasn't your average highschool anime.
I gave the story a 6

The art was good I actually liked it, wasn't anything special though same goes for the sound..but gotta say, the opening is misleading :P being happy and all. Voice acting was good and so were the background music
I gave Art/sound a 7

At first it was easy to get the characters, they were so generic but as I went on they turned out to be truly MESSED UP! Damn! From the main male character (I don't know about you but he's my most hated character right now) to the leading females to the supporting cast
we weren't given much background information about the characters and as I said they were generic at the beginning And quite frankly I HATED THEM ALL!
so I wasn't sure what rating should I give it, in the end I gave it a 5 just because they turned out to be something else other than what I imagined

I didn't enjoy this anime, in fact I'm sure some scenes will stay with me for a while (Shiver) each episode was getting more messed up that before and by the 8th episode my mind was screaming for me to stop and I skipped to the final episode and had my mind settle with a horrifying ending. I didn't see the ending coming but for some reason I actually felt relieved. That at least it ended.
I gave this part a 1

Overall School Days is a tragic psychological anime with a horrifying ending and a hated cast (at least for me).
But I was fair by rating it a 5 overall, It isn't an anime I'd recommend to anyone I know but It actually presented a new thing even if I hate it.

Unless you were in the mood to get really pissed at fictional characters, don't watch it ^_^

This is my first review, feedback is appreciated and I apologize if it was too long.
