Casting, like I said earlier, I'm fueled with theatrical respect when it comes to Kanata Hongo (or anyone, really) acting his usual 'insane' roles, but he wasn't the only one that impressed me throughout the movie. All actors/actresses were so great at portraying their...unique characters, I almost felt that the game they were playing was real despite all the unique features and attributes attached to them.
Overall, I'd recommend this to anyone who isn't easily triggered by various taboos. They're all over the film, literally; it can toy with the mind and it is slightly gross to see how far people are willing to go for the mere addiction of control. But in being so, it is an interesting film. Watch it with an open mind, and everything will run smoothly.

Tbh.....absolutely hated it...... The reason being the fact that they changed the plotline so much from the original manga......The manga's plot was much more deeper and was a lot more thrilling but in this movie it just felt like they are trying to focus solely on yuuta and eiya which wasnt the case in manga...... It was like as if they r trying to make it more comedy based when it is supposed to be a suspense thriller film...... But I absolutely recommend its manga with the same title...... As I mentioned above....... The manga is a lot better and the reason being that they explained a lot of stuff which didnt made any sense in the movie.... Like wtf do you mean by a challenge in which whoever makes someone laugh first would win....... That is seriously so damn dumb ? especially for a thriller film..... I seriously wish they had followed the original plotline..... Like what the hell were they thinking when they changed the most thrilling parts of the manga...... ?
