A very strong acting by Kitano Kie and Fukuda Saki.
This drama also features 'nacchan girl' Hoshii Nanase and some new young actors like Hojo Takahiro who plays Sonoda-kun and Hosoda Yoshihiko who plays the maniac Sako-kun.

The plot was quite simple but was well arranged.
It really made us felt being bullied is scary as hell.
Sometimes the bullying scene was too scary to be true and are sometimes a bit funny ;p

I like the way they made the main character Ayumu became stronger as the story continues, while evil Manami heats everybody up with her scary plans.

Besides the dramatic acting and filmography, the soundtracks also plays a role in this drama. Notice the disturbing hi-pitch sound everytime Manami or Sako-kun dark scene appears.
The ending song by Nakashima Mika was also a good one.

All and all the credit must go to Kitano-Fukuda pair as their realistic acting gave life to this drama. Rumours already out that a special drama and LIFE 2 is coming so be prepared.

Be good and make sure your desk and chair is inside the classroom instead being thrown out from corridor :p
