Summary

Yeah, Kenichi’s a total wimp. He’s always getting picked on and doesn’t have a lot of friends to stick up for him. The guy needs motivation if he hopes to graduate in one piece.

Good for

  • Friends night
  • Party vibe
  • Teens

Skip it if

  • Graphic violence bothers you
  • You want something quiet and calm

Where to watch

Fingerprint

Not for scares or tears.
