The WhatsNext verdict
For Fans of pitch-black satirical comedy and fast-paced visual novels who appreciate biting dialogue and chaotic protagonists.: It delivers relentless, venomous dark comedy through exceptional comedic timing, razor-sharp dialogue, and a distinctly cynical look at late-2000s high school culture. Tradeoff: Its aggressive shock humor, crude taboo topics, and minimal gameplay interactivity beyond occasional dialogue choices will alienate players sensitive to bleak themes.
What it does best
Shock comedy with razor timing
Dialogue that sounds viciously alive
A uniquely poisonous late-2000s school vibe
What might put you off
Shock humor and taboo subject matter
Very limited player agency and short length
The setup
What you are walking into
This is the anti-visual novel. Instead of playing as some guy magically able to score with beautiful anime girls, YOU play the anime girl and create mass chaos in the lives of your potential "suitors". Earnest comedy, social accuracy, and late 2000's aesthetic await you in Class of '09!
