It started out interesting, but things got weird, absurd, and trashy real quick.

Danganronpa at least has explanations and a consistent logic that made some sense despite its weirdness.

But then again, it's been years since King's Game original story got made. It first came out at a time when smartphone's weren't yet a thing. That's why I'm hoping the anime staff has made rewrites and improvements to the story.

So far, things are looking pretty solid.

There's actually an actress on this cast listing that just calls herself Pile?

You don't know her? She's famous from Love Live! IIRC.

Now that you mention it, I know some people that might watch this because she's in it too.

I don't know her, I do find her name odd though. I'm sure there's an interesting reason why her name is just Pile.

Thanks BlueAlf, not familiar with this one at all either.

That's a huge character and cast list.

That main guy design reminds me of Tatsumi from Akame ga Kill, heh.
