A really cool premise but they somehow managed to make a killing game boring, monotonous, and have no stakes. The protagonist is so bland beyond belief, she's been told that she has another chance at life and has been put in a killing game, what does she do? She's concerned about going to school and running her cafe. I wish we spent more time on the other characters POV because at least they actively play the game and try to find info on the other contestants. Even though the whole premise is about the killing game, we spend so little time actually within the divine selection, there's no strategising, no bargaining, not even the option to nominate someone. Instead, the only options you get are for pointless things that barely impact the narrative. The game advertises itself as being a killing game when the majority of the game is just boring slice of life fluff.
