I love this movie, but I wish they hadn't altered Kazuo's character. While I really love psychopathic characters, I still prefer the novel and manga version of Kazuo. That Kazuo is my favorite character.
What’s the deal with making them play that Mafia game over and over if they’re just going to wipe their memories afterward? What’s the point? If they let them remember everything they did to their daughter, it would haunt them so much more and maybe they’d actually feel some remorse. But nooo, the parents just seem to want to torture the students without actually making them realize the consequences of their actions towards Se Eun. The parents just seem to want to torture these kids. They don’t really care about making them realize the impact of what they did to Se Eun. It’s like they’re more interested in punishment than actual justice. It would have made way more sense if the game were controlled by the vengeful ghost of Se Eun herself, like they hinted at. Imagine if she were the game master, orchestrating everything. That would explain the whole amnesia logically that she wanted to torture her classmates psychologically making them play over and over and erasing their memories .
