Deatte 5 Byou de Battle

Think Death note meets Squid Game meets Battle Royale. The anime suffers from 12 episode disease where there's not enough time to unpack the characters and make you care that much about them. Basically stuff just happens and you go along with it. It's almost like you show up 3/4 into an anime just to watch the ending.

There are a few moments that make the anime interesting but you're just watching people you have no reason to care about trying to defeat each other for some unknown purpose. This is also one of those the main character is smarter than everyone else so he thinks in his head type of anime. Which means you'll be spending lots of time hearing inner monologue and long explanations.

There's plenty that could have been done to make the show better and I believe perhaps to spend more time getting to know the other characters first. In the end of it all it was decent but there isn't enough plot or character development to care beyond that. The entire anime was like a tutorial stage.
