!!!Warning this review sounds awkward!!!
I know the budget of 150k $ for a whole production is pretty less for a neat animated movie, but in some points the animation just broke my poor heart.
Apart from this, i enjoyed watching it pretty much. The Charakters seem really realistic (, but some of them have some weird homosexual tendency)
(The Following text is not about a Zoo.)
Story: Principally the story shows the injustice in a middleschool between students, who are unofficaly split up into 2 "kinds". The Pigs, poor and normal students without any might, and the "Fat Cats" who are kind of wealthy although there are some exceptions, but thats nothing to mention.
So these Fat Cats suppress the Pigs with sheer violence until an underdog called Chul beats up a Fat Cats Ass. The Protagonist and his little Sister...ähh i mean his best buddy become friends with Chul and consequently they try to become as powerful as him, although his methods are more then dubious. The Real act is happening years later when the protagonist is already an adult. One day he gets a call from Kyung-Min to meet up. The unexpected meeting with his old best friend ( pussy) ended up in a bar talking about there childhood.
So yea, enough said and i dont want to spoiler the interresting developement, thats why i recommend everyone to watch it. :)
Here u have some Fighting scene w/out any spoilers.
3..2..1... FIGHT!

It's one of the most tragic things that I ever watched. The story is full of gloom without even a hint of happiness with a black atmosphere throughout it. The direction was really amazing, story was also top-notch but the animation, though being adventurous, was of pretty mediocre quality. The voice acting is also pretty decent.
If you wanted to see a very sad real-life tragic anime, go for it.
Rating - 8.2/10
