Crunchyroll is streaming Tasuketsu: Fate of the Majority worldwide, outside of Japan, and describes the main story as:
What if your life hangs in the balance of a skewed game? A self-proclaimed “Emperor” gathered five young men via anonymous text message and asked, “Do you want to live?” But the game has only one rule: “Most die”. Saneatsu and Saaya, among the five trapped individuals, unite to defeat the Emperor and end the game once and for all.
