FANDOM NAME: Deadly Class WHAT MAKES IT GREAT: First, a quick plot summary. Set in the 1980's, a homeless, believed to be serial killer teenager gets invited to attend a school for assassins. The boarding school has two factions, those who are the next in line to head gangs or are government aligned, and the 'rats', teens handpicked for their circumstances. Marcus, the main character, did NOT actually kill a few hundred people, but surely any bed is better than another lonely night on the streets?
-If you're into aesthetic, the main characters are various flavours of punk, emo, and goth. Music, fashion, and belief systems of the MCs are all centred around 1980's counter culture. -If you're into multi or poly shipping, there's a love triangle easily solved with poly, an actual threesome, and essentially any character could be shipped with any other character(s). -If you're into found families, lemme repeat that Marcus joins a murder boarding school because he's LONELY. This show has bonding road trips, covering up murders, group revenge, and multiple instances of saving each other's lives. -If you're into animation, most episodes have a cartoon scene that delves into the angsty back story of different characters. WHERE CAN I FIND IT?(optional): The show is one season. In Canada it streams on Crave, I think it's on Amazon Prime for Americans, not sure where to find it in Europe. (ETA: it appears to be on Youtube for rent?) There are also comics, but I don't know how in line with the show they are, and I'm definitely nomming the show specifically.
