Twenty-six years ago, in the 9th grade’s class 3 (Class 3-3) of Yomiyama North Middle School, there was a student named Misaki. As an honors student who was also good at sports, the charming boy was popular with his classmates. When he suddenly died, his classmates decided to carry on as if he were still alive until graduation. Then, in the spring of 1998, a boy named Kouichi Sakakibara transfers to that classroom, and he grows suspicious of the fearful atmosphere in that classroom. In particular, he becomes curious about an aloof girl with doll-like beauty named Mei Misaki who wears an eyepatch and is always alone, drawing pictures. Soon, students around him start dying in gruesome ways, and now Kouichi tries to solve the mystery of the event that has taken the lives of so many students throughout the classroom’s history if he wants to break the cycle of death that has plagued this school for decades.
There is an 0va which takes place in time before the first episode, I haven’t watched it and I’m not going to, keep this in mind. (it hasn’t been dubbed) While I was watching the first 3 or 4 episodes of this anime I asked myself the “what the actual f*ck is going on?” question several times. After I knew what was the basis of this story, it was pretty interesting. Sure, I could criticize the plot for days, on how stupid they found to “hide” informations from the viewer, but I actually don’t mind it at all. Because in the end, I enjoyed it, well at least most of the show. Although I would have preferred an ending which would have concluded some more information after these events. Last but not least I would like to include the fact that this may be a good show on it’s own but that doesn’t mean it is a good horror.
