Stands to the reason that the protagonist's drama queen father is one of them, but that still leaves three. Maria's parents, perhaps, since going against the loli is never a good idea in these shows.

(click to show/hide)Sayo/Shannon, both of Battlers parents, Jessica's father, Maria's mother, and Gohda, right?

(click to show/hide)I somehow managed to forget the servant entirely; assuming that the missing individuals are all among the dead, that'd indeed mean that Maria's mother is dead (Rosa), though I'm not sure who Rudolph is (Battler's father or Maria's?). I'd have though that Battler's stepmother would survive, given her corny Christie exposition; if she's dead, thus sparing us of further monologues in the same vein, that'd be something...
Nm, watched gg's release instead of the raw, and actually paying attention towards the end; the shots would seem to suggest that those are the ones.
dbml:
Well, on the plus side there was far less ooohs and aaaaaahs from Maria :P
One the downside, I'm very disappointed. It's boring as hell! All the emotion seems forced and faked. I hope it gets better.
LoneWolf:
Well, I guess that I'm the only one that thinks that show isn't that bad :P
Emotions seemed faked especially in the end (hmmm... but maybe some characters were faking :)), little character development, and probably too rushed deaths, but besides that it wasn't bad at all. Oh well, that's just my opinion.
(click to show/hide)And yeah, I was hoping that Shannon would survive, but It was somehow expected that she won't.
Nikran:
I don't think it's that bad this anime either.
(click to show/hide)I agree that the characters don't have much substance or intresting things about em, considering i can hardly remember them or their names for that matter. But i like this mass death thing in the shed, thats caught my interest. Though it came as no surprise about who was gonna die, just didn't expect so many to bite the dust on the 2nd episode.
Maybe the characters are lacking cuz the peeps incharge figured why make complex interesting chars when we gonna kill nearly half of em by ep 2? though that don't excuse em (If this was the case) from making the main chars crappy.
erious:
So what exactly was good about it? Poor writing and bad direction aren't exactly subjective matters.
Lots of people dying is pretty much a part of the premise, I could only accept it as a redeeming feature if it was unexpected.
