Tom Jones Jan 12 2019 10:43 am Now I Love Me Some Misako Renbutsu & that hair is Well, But for her to be a killer or mean is a far stretch. She can play the role but Im not totally convinced.

Okashinaa Mar 21 2017 3:28 am It's been to watch this amazing mystery movie. But I admire Inoue Mao-san driving skill and it's strange to reveal herself to commit murder when she set-up other in the end with a simple reason. And the car, I don't remember she drive it on the forest. But leave it aside... Recommended to everyone who love the genre.

A07 Jul 19 2016 10:27 am This film is very great!!! It shows how powerful an internet media is.. I can say that the real killer/s were the people who were judging the innocent with an inaccurate info and the ones who take advantages of a person who's weakness is just being kind., bashers are usually like the ones in this film., they were just a nobody that is so dumb underestimating another person..,

dx Jul 17 2016 10:01 am @nivritti The actor who played young Shingo Eto or Shiroyuki's first love is Uchiyama Haruki (内山遥城), he's from Avex and I think he hasn't got any role since he's busy being an idol

Gilang Jun 06 2016 12:49 am Anyone knows the song on both opening and ending??

haru Mar 31 2016 5:22 am How they played out the mystery in this is actually pretty nice and interesting.
