In the spring of a new semester, a "ranking" is sent to Class 2-D. It clearly shows the rankings of all the students and the homeroom teacher. The one who ranks 1st is Himeyama Tsubaki, a kind and popular honor student recognized by everyone. But one day, without any warning, she commits suicide. A few days later, everyone in the class receives a suicide note from Himeyama, and from that day on, the class begins to fall apart.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The film adapts the manga's 'suicide receipt' premise but shifts focus from revenge to complicity — making viewers question their own casual participation in social hierarchies.
Director Hanabusa insisted on casting actual recent high school graduates; the cast's genuine familiarity with classroom dynamics made the paranoia feel lived-in rather than performed.
