I am begging anybody reading this review PLEASE play the game. It's free to play online on vgperson dot com or you can buy it on Steam, it's a Japanese fan-translated RPG game. Like Danganronpa but 200% better! The manga adaption is... okay. It really bothers me that the artist of the manga seems to be a lewd artist, which makes some of the characters seem weird in their portrayal... like my favorite Keiji.

Nothing super amazing or new here in the story, but the art is very, very good.

Sara and Joe have been besties forever - Joe is kind-hearted to a fault and Sara can rely on him for anything, even if she might not be totally honest about her feelings. All of which gets tested when they’re thrown into a bunch of sadistic challenges and games by an unseen force. And if you thought online popularity polls were stupid, well, these challenges will take out more than your social life if you place last in them...
Okay, so, I am going to preface this review really quickly. If you, like myself, are a fan of the Zero Escape series of video games that are focused on a series of elaborate death challenges played out amongst a bunch of strangers while featuring complicated trust issues, do not bother reading more. Just go and grab this and enjoy yourself.
Now, is this a great story? Eh, I don’t necessarily think so. There’s something a bit wobbly about it, but most of the characters are good and the challenges are fun, although the author’s not presenting them in necessarily the best way possible.
Notably, I felt that the way the second challenge got sorted was indeed very clever, but the way it was laid out and put into action just didn’t quite sit right with me. The book is sometimes very good at portraying the stakes (you can’t say it doesn’t bookend the volume doing this), but the moment-to-moment drama is a whole other matter.
I mean these sorts of stories are absolutely preposterous (though the way Sara ends up involved is a wonderfully creepy little fake-out) and hinge on what I would charitably term ‘baloney science’ and everybody doing exactly what they need to do at the exact moment they should be doing it. Which, for me, is kind of where the entertainment value lies.
As such, it’s fine if you don’t take it seriously. It has some fun fake-outs and ‘ooh can I trust these people’ moments and the bond between Joe and Sara appears to be so tight that they, at least, can rely on one another (though that’s a good way to pull the rug out in the end - I’ll die laughing if this series turns out to be Joe’s elaborate attempt to get Sara to date him).
The characters are okay. Some of them are interesting enough and there’s an implied link between the group that has yet to come up. It also helps that the art’s quite vivid and gives them all a very distinct look.
Of course, there’s such a thing as being TOO distinct and the one poor traumatized girl who appears to wear a pail on her head as part of her costume is so dumb looking it drives me kind of crazy - nothing about that is believable. The master of ceremonies that appears is also unique looking, but in that very bizarre ‘did somebody think this through’ anime sort of way.
Still, once the games get started next time out I think we’ll see the sparks fly. In addition to the very fun second game, the first involves a solution so incredibly insane that I’m here to see where it might go next (as I say, there’s a LOT of ‘incredibly insane’ in this book).
3 stars. It’s a classic death game told competently, but not expertly. You can already see that this is going to go to some places and I am a sucker for these sorts of wacky-problems-with-far-fetched-solutions-and-mind-games sort of stories. I just hope the minute to minute writing can rise to the level of its premise.

Highly recommend playing the game first. The manga is mediocre at best.
February 26, 2025
im only rating 3/5 because i think the game is a much better introduction and i highly recommend you play it BEFORE READING THIS. do NOT MAKE THIS YOUR FIRST YTTD MEDIA. THE GAME IS SO MUCH BETTER!!! but in the grand scheme of things this is a fine adaptation with pretty art so its meh for me. ill read the rest of the volumes and see how they measure up
almost made this 2/5 because of the closeup on nao's butt when

I'm always down for a majority vote death game so when I saw this one while scrolling through the zon, I was veryyy intrigued indeed ✧˚ ༘ ⋆｡♡˚
This first volume introduces the characters and plot in a good way and it sets you up for it to be some fun games, puzzles, and bloody entertainment. This is why I'm definitely getting the next volume immediately because I want to know what happens next!

It's like Danganronpa. It's not very good.
But I got volume 2 from the library and I'm slightly interested to see what happens so let's go.

I don’t know if it’s because I played the game version, but the foreshadowing to future events

I've been searching for something like Danganronpa (the main games) a while back and had no luck. Now I stumbled upon this manga adaption of a free-to-play game and it fits the bill, even lf I had totally forgotten about my search till writing these sentences 😅
The cast is positively weird and seems to not be filled with too many archetypes, the art is detailed and creepy, and our perspective is unreliable. Which is adding to the tension.
There are some open questions and some part of the story moved ahead quite quickly (Why are some characters trusting Sara so much?), but that's probably not a plot hole, but an open question to be answered.
Just one thing: The translation seems... off sometimes. There were a few rare moments where I just wasn't sure if the translation made sense. Like it wasn't the most straight forward way to translate a sentence and therefore you had to fill a gap to connect the dots.
PS: Might also be the writing. Can't really judge that with my meager Japanese skills...

Manga is not usually my jam, but I'm reading a few with my daughter. This was her first choice, and I have to say that, although the beginning is a little confusing (I haven't seen the game), it is messed up enough that I have agreed to read book 2.
January 1, 2022
3.5/ 5 rounded up. It may not be the most original concept, but it's suspenseful and engaging. There's enough mystery to keep me wanting more and the leads are easy to root for.

Encore un titre qui m’intriguait énormément. J’étais très curieuse de découvrir cette histoire. Le résumé me tentait et j’avais vraiment très envie de me plonger dedans. La couverture attire notre regard mais c’est surtout le résumé qui attise notre curiosité. J’ai bien aimé ce premier tome mais il manque un petit truc en plus pour que la lecture soit vraiment marquante. J’espère que ce petit truc manquant sera dans la suite du manga avec les prochains tomes. Sinon ça serait bien dommage..
Dans ce premier tome, ces derniers temps, Sara Chidouin est tourmentée par un individu énigmatique qu’elle croit même voir devant ses fenêtres. Joe Tazuna, un bon camarade de Sara, se fait du souci pour la jeune fille et se propose de la raccompagner chez elle. C’est là qu’ils sont attaqués par une force inconnue et qu’ils perdent connaissance. À leur réveil, ils constatent avec effroi qu’ils sont retenus prisonniers dans un lieu mystérieux..
La première chose qui m’a fait tiquer pendant ma lecture, c’est les incohérences. Enfin j’en ai surtout repéré une. Lorsqu’ils se retrouvent tous ensemble, Sara retrouve Joe mais celui ci ne semble pas se souvenir d’elle. Sauf que quelques pages plus tard on dirait que c’est l’inverse.. Alors soit j’ai loupé quelques pages soit je cherche la petite bête mais ça m’a semblé bizarre, assez pour que je le remarque.. Ce qui me semble d’autant plus bizarre que les autres qui sont arrivés par deux, eux se reconnaissent.. C’est vraiment un petit détail mais un détail qui m’a tout de même fait tiquer. Sinon, pour le reste de l’histoire, j’ai bien aimé, ça a un peu un côté Saw, bon bien que je n’ai pas vu les films parce que je suis trop une chochotte mais je connais le principe. Ça m’a pas mal rappelé ce concept. Je me pose beaucoup de questions concernant le pourquoi du comment. Qui est derrière tout ça, pourquoi ces gens là en particulier et j’en passe. Je suis hyper curieuse et je crève d’envie d’en savoir plus. Ce premier tome a clairement attisé ma furieuse curiosité!
Cette histoire m’intrigue énormément. Je meurs d’envie d’avoir des réponses aux questions que je me pose. Je trouve que cette histoire est hyper bien construite. Il y a juste cette petite incohérence qui m’a fait tiquer mais sinon c’était vraiment pas mal. Ça me donne envie d’avoir le second tome entre les mains immédiatement. J’attends la sortie de pied ferme maintenant. J’adore ce genre d’histoire, je trouve que c’est palpitant et le fait de se poser des tas de questions comme ça, c’est fascinant!

A decent try at adapting the video game. For the most part, a lot of the game’s core elements are kept intact: the cast of characters, mysterious rooms, and death game rules and conditions. A lot of character and tension is lost via the adaptation, although that’s going to be inevitable once you move from an adventure video game with loads of dialogue and text to a manga with only so many text bubbles to convey the story. The story is rushed through at a brisk pace, and there isn’t as much time spent introducing and getting to know the characters as there is in the game. However, for the most part, I still think it was a decent read. As it stands all the core plot elements are still there, and at its core, the story’s death game is pretty intriguing. There’s some high-quality art, and I liked how many different angles the panels were all framed with. Since the game is a visual novel and you only see everything from one static angle, it was fun seeing all the familiar scenes framed in different ways. Wasn’t expecting this to surpass the game, but a decent read nonetheless.

i’m really happy that yttd had a chance at a manga adaptation, and i’ll say it’s quite good for what it is! i already knew the story from the game so it’s quite predictable, but some moments just really threw me off… like why was rio ranger in the beginning? i suppose that’s the way the manga wants to go and i don’t have an issue with it… i suppose another thing was the side profiles, and i guess i feel like they portrayed some characters wrong, some moments just didn’t feel like they lived up to their potential… and i think the illustrator made lewd art too… but i did really love this, and i loved seeing sou in manga form… there was also some stuff that wasn’t in the game so it felt like an unexpected treat, i’m definitely buying volume 2!

There are certainly good points to this Zero Escape/Saw inspired horror comic. The solution to the second game is very clever. The main character is smart and appealing, and her friendship with Joe looks very solid. There are some good surprises and twists thrown in here. The character designs are largely nonsense, but what else do you expect? There's basically no foundation for the games actually working, of course, and the solution to the first one is so over the top convoluted that it really stretches my suspension of disbelief to buy that only one pair failed it. Not for me, but maybe for people who are fans of this type of game.

This was a lot of fun! Rounded up to 4 stars. A group of apparent strangers of various ages are kidnapped and forced to compete in a sort of puzzle escape room, with deaths for not completing puzzles in time and the added complication of having to vote for one person to die on top of that after a certain number of challenges. The puzzles were interesting, the characters engaging, and a bigger mystery and connection between them is being hinted at. Borrowed from the library on a whim and I’ll request the next volumes to check out as well.

Need to catch up on my reading challenge so I’m gonna read the books my dear friend Callie got me (thanks Callie!!) I love yttd and the art is really good (except maybe keiji)
Definitely fast paced but as someone who played the game before reading I definitely understand the haste of the story so it didn’t bother me much :)

Its maybe because i played the game first making the manga look just go
I suggest if u have not yet played the game read the manga first, and even though you don’t end up liking the manga try the game ! the game was a 10/10

This manga was fine. Nothing too special I like the plot, there being a deadly game, as it is sort of similar to Alice in Borderland. I am interest to see what happens next. I think I’ll have to read the next volume to see if I want to continue.

3 stars only because of the difficulty to adapt a multiple choices video games into a 'one way' book. Congrats on making decisions I guess. I will definitely read more as this universe has become my most recent obsession.
September 22, 2021
I love the story!! I tried to play the game a while ago but it stressed me out a little too much so I was very happy to find out there's a manga. Can't wait to read more of it! :D

Picked this up based off of my enjoyment of the Danganronpa series. Interesting premise, lots of distinct characters, this has a lot of promise.

Saw for weebs. But also one of the traps was just a falling chandelier? I dunno.
