Libra Feb 28 2022 11:57 am Does anyone know who the 2nd younger teacher is? Cant seem to find her in the cast list.

Daki Mar 26 2018 3:46 am Mindblown!!! XD

Janss Jan 15 2018 8:15 pm An amazing piece of modern cinema. I found myself begging the question what it would be like to have dinner with Jean Cocteau and this film's director, Sion Soto. So few films experiment with surrealism these days, and this was done beautifully. I haven't been able to find it, but the soundtrack would be a wonderful acquisition, as the music was equally as beautiful.

Ssal Nov 06 2017 1:43 pm Watched the movie and was thoroughly confused, but that seems to be a them that comes with Japanese suspense movies because Love Exposure left me confused af too. I'm curious to know if anyone knows off the song that the bike riders are singing before they are killed? it sounds very cute.

Jeff May 19 2017 8:31 pm I enjoyed it. Very surreal, I especially like the end in the snow, the pureness of it as she said It's over and got up to find her own destiny. It was now her world.

Husky Oct 20 2016 6:56 am The story was about how she tries to escape reality that thinking to be another person is the answer, Aki was just her imagination, conscience and mind that helped her to decide how to take the right path...

jerry Sep 29 2016 2:14 pm it give me some headache

Rusty Shackleford Jun 23 2016 3:40 pm There were no guys in that film but only 7 of them when but one of wore a pig's head I think it was a lesbian flick

Susumi Jun 20 2016 6:47 am This is like old scary movie..I know this is all about game stuff but it is kinda weird cause why they being topless at someone wedding..? What with the pig head..? why their teachers so much angry just because their student skip the class..? And killed with the machine gun..? What's the point...Maybe I should read more this novel until I get it..

GNakagawa Jun 10 2016 1:13 pm to be honest, this is one of the weirdest movie i've ever seen.. i'm okay with the fact that she changes body but the pig women and the vein.. i just can't help it *burst out of laughing XD ugh, I hate my father so much for recommending this movie for me. lol..

Snow Jun 01 2016 8:05 pm in the beginning I'm a bit confused idk its just I don't understand why there a wind that kills and slice the people into halves but , when in the school her new friends said in the other dimension and in the wedding I totally understand it but in the last part is confusing when she said its over now but, why she's running? Anyway reina is so cute in her uniform.^_^

carla Mar 19 2016 2:20 am i hate the part of wedding

Mitsuko Mar 19 2016 2:19 am the story is sad and aki i cry because of this story

Alcamuz Feb 23 2016 12:58 pm ok... honestly, I don't get it... I'm really confuse. LoL.

Shamari Feb 23 2016 6:45 am I did not expect myself to be in my feels after watching this movie but oh god I fell in love Mitsuko.

Erika Jan 01 2016 8:34 pm Wow!! I was about to mourn. I really like it a lot, is bizarre yeah, but the movie touch my feelings.

Oh and all the actresses are very nice. I think I fell in love of Reina. I don't like fall in love because I have no chance. But what am I saying? If that would happen me, only to be just friends or mate, if that indeed happen. But best give up. I don't like dreaming utopic things. But i do it (´-`).

bnm Dec 14 2015 10:55 pm I read this movies plot are the multi universe of one persone, something like that... but is a weird movie

Leigh Dec 12 2015 8:06 pm This movie is full of $#!+...

Daniel Dec 07 2015 10:15 am Who is the girl behind the piano in the wedding scene? :)

dhet Dec 04 2015 3:21 am Done watching the movie. Really weird. But i think it's trying to portray different sides of women. As well as how men "sees" women. See how mariko got out of the game And are actually in a men's world. How the game master told mariko to fulfill her destiny, which is to please men. But she was able to break free from it. Idk. im also confused by everything. Haha

owie Dec 04 2015 1:15 am The Guy's name is Takumi Saito

Minho Dec 01 2015 3:15 pm That guy in the bed is so hoot.. Love his skin colour.. Anybody know his name? ^^

Jumar Anonuevo Dec 01 2015 9:20 am Just finished watching it. i think the author is trying to portray a character, something that is going through this characters mind. Like changing personalities, running from something in life that no matter how you change yourself you still fall to the same spot or the same ending. Life seems to be a continous race and confusion, uncertainty and fear. And that if there is one entity that probably resemble God, our purpose becomes unclear as we can be toyed at, just following what God wants. The ending is a bit confusing though, im not sure if the character being portrayed just decided to end him/herself just to stop the uncertainties, but kinda found him/herself running again after doinng so. I dont know, just my guess...

Jengphyu Nov 29 2015 11:56 pm Just finished watching the movie.. And I'm looking for answers cause it's weird and confusing. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN THE PLOT?

Chichan Nov 29 2015 10:21 am Just like what the others said. It was a weird movie, confusing and eerie? Idk, it felt kind of disturbing in some way. Really unrealistic but the suspense was there. The plot twist was... Idk, I can't describe it well, it wasn't explained profoundly. The ending makes it more weirder as it gets. If I have to rate it, 4.5/10, kudos for the gore that'll really catch attention.

JANA Nov 28 2015 6:55 am Just finished watching this movie.. It's really weird

DONGJOONHAE Nov 28 2015 6:54 am This movie is so weird
