Where does your logic go? Where do you forget it?

Alas, the setting is a bit old-fashioned, like making a deal with the devil to sell your soul or take away your most precious things. But this time it was turned into a magic box. Make a wish on the box. After the wish is fulfilled, the magic box will take away the most precious thing from the wisher. After 7 wishes, the magic box will harvest the soul of the wisher. I think 7 wishes are too many. With such a setting, by logic, the relatives and friends around the heroine will not die. So seeing the plot behind is very inconsistent, the logic of the movie is a bit broken.

The first wish: May the nasty girls have rotten skin; the price: the dog raised since childhood.

The second: the person who has a crush likes himself; the price: the uncle who has a bad relationship with the rich relative next door

The third: inherit the property of the uncle (the old uncle is single); the price: close neighbor aunt

Fourth: become popular; the price: the older sister of the male classmate

Fifth: Dad can become stylish (when Dad is rich, he likes to pick up garbage everywhere); Price: Best friend A (two in total)

Sixth: Mom never committed suicide; Price: Dad

Seventh: Go back to before picking up the box; the price: the heroine herself

It is assumed that the most precious things will be taken away, and we count what is around the heroine. Dog, dad, best friend A, best friend B, close neighbor aunt, secret crush (reluctantly), how is it all logical. You can't hang up an unfamiliar uncle just to have money. The older sister of the male classmate was even more unlucky. She helped to study the magic box and died. Does this match the precious setting? Six wishes have passed, and the best friend survives one, which is really amazing.

And the heroine is not stupid! After saying 7 wishes, it's your soul's turn (the heroine knows this). I also thought she was ready to sacrifice her ego to complete her larger self. As a result, I went back to the past, found the box, and asked the male classmate to help bury it (that is, the male classmate in the previous article).

I watched the trailer and thought, hey, it's okay~ But seeing that the score is not high, I'm afraid of what happens, alas.

Bad logic, bad review.
