I came into this show, knowing that Japanese dramas usually are quirky and overacted. I wondered how Japan would handle a psychological thriller for the young masses.

It went as expected. The drama was overacted to the point of being cartoonish, but the thing about this kind of acting is that it makes intense moments feel more... intense. And so it was.

I was a bit disappointed until the last episode, planning on giving it a 7/10. I felt like the plot was too convoluted at times, but I also know that it was because in the situation caused by Hiragii, the authorities would be a lot less passive. However, the irreality pays off in the end

I feel like this drama should be required viewing in all schools in the world. And maybe in most workplaces.

It's not like this plot wasn't done before and to be quite honest, for most of the series, there was that sensation of Hiragii teaching important things and making his students think and learn to think for themselves, but I also think the true objective was not very apparent to the casual viewer which may detract from the lesson it wants to teach the world.

These types of shows are a warning. Pity no one seems inclined to listen.
