As the Gods Will
:Fujimura Hiji, Kaneshiro Muneyuki
:High schooler Shun Takahata's life shatters when his teacher's head explodes in class. A grinning Daruma doll announces the first rule: "Move, and you die." After surviving the deadly "Red Light, Green Light," Shun flees to the gymnasium only to face a colossal Maneki-neko: "Hang a bell on me in ten minutes!" Teaming up with the nihilistic Takashi Amaya and his childhood friend Izumi, Shun battles through puppet-jump-rope traps and lethal gift exchanges. As survivors earn the title "Children of God," they uncover the truth—their fates are pawns in a vagrant deity's wager: does humanity deserve to exist?
