I don't think this is for horror fans good thing I'm not one

On the whole I really enjoyed this film but that might be because I don’t like horror.

Like this film is technically a horror but after the first night you realise that the characters are never really in danger (also the second form of the “monster” is really goofy) which made the horror aspect of the film kind of fall flat for me which I do not mind at all since I was able to focus on aspects of the film that I actually enjoy. For me I enjoyed this film because it was just a group of likeable characters going though a Groundhog Day situation with a twist.

I do however have two complaints about the film one being WHY DIDN’T ASUKA RUN WHEN SHE WAS TOLD TO RUN!! I mean I get that it was so she could have her big character development moment but still, it was frustrating. My second complaint is that some of the characters were really underdeveloped for example Rie, she had so much potential to be an interesting character due to her crush on Takahiro but she really didn’t do anything for the story, so much so that I didn’t even notice she was gone for the final battle.

But other than those things I did really enjoy this film. I would just say don’t go in expecting a good horror cause you’re not going to get it. This film is more of a high school coming of age type drama with horror elements but I think it does that pretty well.
