Time travel. Mental Bugs killing but not really. A whole lotta twist turns.

In this school some kids get crucified while others get stepped on their balls.

More of the mystery is revealed and that just raises more questions while the terror around and within the group ratchets up. I had my doubts when I started this series but I'm really enjoying now.

I don’t really like the Princess storyline because I think it plays too much on outdated gender roles and makes a gender parallel that I don’t really find scary or interesting.

"why did the adults die?"
"adults are always so reasonable and logical, when something happened that they couldn't understand they all lost their minds. we kids know that anything can happen, which is why we're ok. but because we can believe anything, we might also believe things that aren't real, which is why some people thought that sacrificing the school bully would make things better. So let's be careful! We have to fall someplace in-between!"
(paraphrased)

Sho's mother seems to be the only one who can hear Sho's cries for help as he's being strangled by his teacher. Not only can she hear him, but she can pinpoint exactly where she believes him to be. Unfortunately, he's not there - in that time.

Back at the school the kids are going nuts, believing if they sacrifice someone whose name starts with 'TA' then their world will return to normal.

At this point it would seem that all of the adults are dead except for the crazy lunch delivery guy that they locked up. The tension basically is relentless. There is something around every corner and the kids are fighting not only the elements, but each other.
