Yuri: Humans who had regrets in their former life gather at this academy. With the school as the stage, my group Shinda Sekai Sensen and God’s pawn Angel are part of a spectacular tornado of action! By choosing one of a few options, different story points are prepared. I wouldn’t suggest it, but it looks like you can even go to classes seriously. You can see human relations that were impossible in the anime, as well as unbelievable relations! You can even stop Isawa from disappearing like she did in the third episode! Try and see yourself what kind of story will be written. The afterlife academy adventure! Angel Beats! – 1st Beat. Operation starting on May 29, 2015! (Source: ANN)
