Yes, in fact, not only anime, but also in the works created by japanese people, they always like to engage in some things that test human nature, some themes even look a little pathological, and there are countless heavy taste works such as killing people and eating people.
And those who do not kill people will be killed, most of them even wear the cloak of "game" settings, like "Battle Royale", they are not only because the world has mutated, such as zombies, alien invasions or whatever, but simply because of entertainment or force, so that you have to take up arms to resist, to survive, to become a plaything for people's entertainment...
This inexplicable survival game tends to appear more brutal, even more ornamental, and becomes a creative inspiration suitable for appreciation.
Today, Miso will take stock of several relatively well-known "eat chicken" type animation works for everyone, to show you what the cruel "eating chicken" in Japanese anime is like.
"Shocking Game"
Merry Christmas
As a slightly more "serious" survival category "eating chicken" work, "Shocking Game" will be those who have committed large and small crimes in life, pulled into their own game world, and unlike other works, "Shocking Game" to use real bombs to kill each other as a point of view, the main weapons used between players are a variety of small bombs, how to use these bombs to create a variety of situations, is to add an interesting style to this work.
Other aspects are also considered decent, by creating a variety of desperate situations, to show the extremism and distortion of various human natures, and how to retain the good side of their own people has become the survival core of the protagonist team.
So, in order to survive, what step can they do?
Diary of the Future
A very early classic. It may not be a "god work", but it is definitely good enough.
The story tells that Zeus, the god of time and space, selects the twelve-life qualified person, and by distributing them with various "future diaries" and advocating that they use their abilities to kill each other, and the last surviving person will inherit the power of the gods.
I think you have not even seen this work, but you must have seen a lot of pictures of the heroine and my wife Yuno.
At the heart of the game is the "future diary" that the participants in the game have and can predict the future based on their own habits.
Through these diaries, you can see what is going to happen in the future, and although it may be just a few words, you can still use various means to perfectly predict what will happen in the future and further change the future.
In this environment, to survive, you need more than physical strength and force.
《Fate/Zero》
Yes, it is not impossible to say that Fate's Holy Grail War is a "chicken eating" game, and among them, fate/zero in the old void's pen has a more "eat chicken" game flavor than the original, and it is more exciting.
The Holy Grail is a legendary treasure that fulfills all the wishes of its holders, and the ritual of obtaining the Holy Grail is known as the Holy Grail War.
The 7 magicians elected by the Holy Grail who participated in the Holy Grail War were called masters, and made a pact with the 7 magicians known as the Servant, and they were seven heroic spirits summoned by the Holy Grail, divided into seven ranks, exerting powerful forces that did not belong to humans.
However, only one group was able to obtain the Holy Grail, and each of the 7 groups had to kill each other or cooperate temporarily in order to become the last group.
Adding magical elements and various complex settings, Fate's highlights are not only the personal obsessions of the masters who participated in the Holy Grail War, and the reinterpretation of the tragic past of the heroes, but also more wonderful battles and brain-burning plots, and in this regard, it can be said that the "Fate/Zero" that has reached the pinnacle will surely attract your attention.
Darwin's Game
Similar to "Future Diary", the game of killing and being killed also comes from a mobile phone, and the male protagonist is inexplicably pulled into a killing feast called "Darwin's Game" because he received a distress text message from his classmates.
The participants of the game themselves will be given a certain superpower, but the rules of the game are simpler, to put it bluntly, it is a monster spawn upgrade, so that everyone's strength has the possibility of increasing.
In terms of human design, adhering to the principle of "men and women working together without getting tired", the old predecessors used the new world view they built to interpret a slightly typical "eating chicken" game work.
If you have expectations for such works or the characters in them, it is highly recommended to learn about the original work now, in case you get spoilers after the animation starts...
Devil's Mystery
The story is set in a class at an all-board girls' high school called "10 Years of Black Group", where 12 students are professional killers, and all of them are aimed at their classmates, the only heroine who is not a killer, Haruru Ichinose.
Even though his life is coveted by many people, Haru Ichinose, who survived an assassination in the past, still vows to graduate alive and become good friends with all his classmates!
On the other hand, the assassin who was also preparing to take Ichinose Haru's life, the transfer student Higashito Kaku, was gradually attracted by Haru's charm in all aspects as he approached Haru again and again. While the students attack Qing, Rabbit Horn fights them continuously as a protector in the form of a "snatcher of the spoils".
That's right, this is actually a rare, blood-colored romantic lily drama!
The animation has ended, although it is an original ending, but the look and feel is actually quite good, a rare lily "eat chicken" theme, like people must not miss!
