Impressions after completing.


The potential is there, the author could have expanded upon the backstory of other kids, a new kid being added, and other possible events.
But I understand and assume that this was rushed.
And because of that, the sudden end wasn't impactful.
However, I like the unexpected plot twist. The factors that led up to the "nursery" being made was interesting. And a bittersweet end to what the MC started.

It was a mediocre story to be honest, it wasn't bad neither good, I would call the explaination as to why the kids do this dumb, but I just got the news that in the country I live about
the cartels training young boys and men to become hitmen against their will by kidnapping a bunch of them and making them kill each other AND sending the video to their families (dear fucking god, I can't believe I live in a country in which something so cartoonishly evil that it looks taken out of dangaronpa happens) so I call it fair
the mystery about the MC was also poorly revealed, maybe a little bit of foreshadowing would've helped,
his breakage also happened to fast for my taste
, maybe a little bit more developing on kids would've been good but this is one of those plots that can get easily dragged for too long specially with the stories of the children's suffering, it is one of those things that you know are included for more of a shock factor, so I'm glad it is short, but it also is kinda TOO short and it feels rushed. Decent ideas bad execution

hmmm this manga while short is pretty good personally idk why the yakuza wanted to get rid of everyone but the head teacher seems like everything was going good if old buddy just wanted revenge on the main guy seems like he was going to mess up the yakuzas whole operation.
but it does seem like some of the adults being brought there wernt bad looks like some jsut had high debts like the lady who got killed with a slash to the back of the neck.

overall wish we got more to see of this seems like there should be more

Pretty interesting. Wish it'd been more fleshed out though. Feels like everything just started happening all of a sudden. Maybe the author didn't know where to go? Or maybe they wanted to end it because writing something like this was damaging their mental state?
Anyway. Interesting story at first, but it doesn't really go anywhere or do anything.

have to read it since it's keep pop up on the main page and i hab free time despite i try to avoid tragedy tag

i dun understand why every gore-horror-tragedy manga always only looks scary and horrifying only at begining.

around the last part is full of twist, but the horrid part are more mild.

still, poor kids and it's suck that no redeeming punishment for the truest evil of the story, the yakuza.

story is good in unique way but seems in hurry. and the reasoning of the mastermind to become evil is too shallow and weak, imo.

The motivation for the secret main antagonist doesn't make any sense. He's just kind of an asshole. His life has been easier than anyone elses save for one character.

The protaganists issue would make more sense if there were hints. Reminds me of the MC in Who's Lila though, both this manga and that game have it pretty close to the real thing which is good.

Only one or two of the kids make sense for the situation. The rest have incredibly unrealistic attitudes toward what they are doing.

The yakuza angle was obvious but also the only thing that made sense. Anything else would have taken every bit of merit from the setting.

I think the artist is fantastic at making different faces that say a lot about the characters.

The writing feels so close to actually being good rather than just fine. There is hidden potential between the lines.
