The Difference Between the Live Action and the Anime

Story:
The story is similar to the anime but some were not in the live action, Yumeko didn't fight with Manyuda Kaede and Yumemite Yumemi(this will probably be in the 2nd season but it's weird to have Yumemi in the cast when she's not here in the live action). Yumeko was rescued by Midari in the anime, unlike the live action when Suzui rescued her. Kaede was the one asking Mary to join the student council, not Kirari(due to her absence Kaede replaced her). For Sayaka, she was given more screentime in Season one compared to the manga or anime. Sometimes she is shown while she's working: for example, Runa and she carry a ladder before Yumeko meets Yuriko Nishinotouin and challenges her. When Itsuki Sumeragi is fired, she desperately asks Kaede Manyuda to reconsider; because he ignores her, she tries to beg Kirari instead but is immediately tased by Sayaka. Sumeragi didn't pull her fingernails unlike in the anime. Kirari didn't watch the fight between Yumeko and Yuriko

Acting/Cast: (will only point out the differences)
-Yumeko. Hamabe Minami did a great job portraying her. The hair was on point, the expressions and her craziness was perfect, but i realized that her sexual elements were toned down. Her eyes glowed red when gambling, just like in the anime, so props to that!!
-Suzui Ryota. He still tends to be in the background, he is more talkative and often comments the events, usually speaking to the viewers directly.. Mahiro Takasugi did an excelent job!
-Kaede Manyuda. He's less subtle than his manga and anime counterparts and his desire to rule over the school has always been evident.
-Yuriko Nishinotouin. She opened her eyes in the live action, which was surprising because she didn't open her eyes unlike in the anime
-Midari Ikishima. Her hair color was brown and her tongue was not pierced, other than that Midari's design was faithful to her manga counterpart. She was in a cell unlike in the anime where she roams and likes to hide in the bathroom while playing with her gun
-Nothing really changed in other characters beside the hair color.-

Music:
The opening was catchy and short unlike other drama's where the openings are at least 2-3 minutes long

Overall i love this live action, 10/10
