About
You may enjoy this if you like fast-paced school mysteries with dark tension and survival-game stakes, especially if Classroom of the Elite or Persona4 the ANIMATION appeal to you; Not for you if rushed storytelling frustrates you.
Pros: tense mystery setup; stylish, vivid look; bingeable and suspenseful | Cons: very rushed pacing; thin character development; weaker than the game
