Meh. I will rate it a 8/10 due to the good editing but I wished that they were not stock images and someone made an ACTUAL POSTER WOTH ORIGINAL ART!!!!
But I love your team so I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt.
In my defense, I wanted to give this niche genre a shot

Aggressive Stupidity is the real challenge of Ousama Game
By now, many people have likely heard of the show that went down as the greatest Trainwreck of 2017. It was a glorious failure that was simultaneously annoying as it was hilarious. The concept of a survival game is simple enough that an average writer could make an entertaining work from it but only a truly horrible writer could mess it up.
Ousama game is weird in that it adapts two manga at the same time. The sequel manga makes up the majority of the anime while the original manga is adapted in the form of long flashbacks. Trying to adapt two manga in only 12 episodes was bound to lead to a jumbled narrative that feels like it has ADHD.
Being a survival game, the story is naturally full of suspense to attract viewers. The synopsis is that everyone in nobuaki's class receives a message from someone called "king". They must follow all of his order or else they will die. Nobuaki is a survivor of the previous King's game and is determined to finally put a stop to it. Seeing how the students will react to their given challenge is always fun and the stakes were always high. Getting orders from an anonymous person via phone with the promise of death is a solid premise. This would've been a fun show had it not been for the dog shit characters
Let's talk about the characters cause dear God these are the worst written characters to Grace the face of the earth. Since this is character-driven, these assholes are the plot. Everyone here is a dumbass who goes out of their way to antagonize one another. From the original ousama game, there's this mysterious bitch who knows the secret behind the game but refuses to tell anyone. She just waits while the others die off while she acts like the smug piece of shit she is. There was also the asshole bully who ordered some guy to kill himself as a king's order and gets surprised when the boy dies. A girl kills herself when she loses a game, not knowing that the punishment was harmless. To top it all off, Some truly dumbass bitch gets to decide her own king's order and she orders herself to touch the king.
This was based on the extremely weak assumption that the king was definitely in her class. Unsurprisingly, she dies like the fool she is. It takes a special breed of stupid to make characters like these. Aki Honda takes the cake by perhaps being my most hated character in all of fiction besides Bakugou Katsuki. She introduced herself as being a kind-hearted and upbeat girl who immediately likes Nobuaki but goes from 0 to 100 as soon as the ousama game starts. She immediately morphs into a cartoonishly evil alpha bitch who watches in delight as her classmates die. The students see her act like the vessel of Satan multiple times but some still trust her for some reason. Like her friend who saved her cause Aki was nice to her once. The heartless witch could've been dead but no. Some dumb bitch had to save her.
Then it's revealed the entire reason she acts like a bitch is so the others won't be hurt when she's dies. That's the dumbest fucking ass-backward logic I ever heard. She tortured everyone without remorse and caused them far more grief than her death would've caused. And the whole evil transformation happened at the snap of a finger without any build-up. A+ acting skills for Aki but her performance ruined everything for everyone.
The reveal behind the ousama game is what cemented this show as an aggressively stupid. The whole thing was set up by an intelligent virus that forces the body to kill itself! Sound like the type of crap m night Shyamalan would write. How on Earth a virus could force the human body to combust, send out text messages and other bs is beyond me. The plot twist is just too mind-boggling stupid to take seriously. It would've been better off as a mystery.
Ousama game's only saving grace is the opening song, feed the fire by cold rain. Dear God was that song amazing!! An all English Hardrock song that easily surpassed the entire show. Ousama Game wins a 5/10 for being an entertaining and hilariously bad piece of trash with a great opening but god awful characters and plot twists.
For a manga that actually handled the king's game concept well, read Arisa by Natsumi Anso. It's a shojo series filled with twists and turns to keep the reader in suspense. No b movie horror logic here .
This is soooo good ...
I like to watch bad low-budget movies, and I found the film monsters (1993) (Russian). They use live action footage of small animals as the "monsters". As a rat owner, I find it hilarious how they try to make the rats look threatening. (No animals were actually harmed in filming)
