Dead Tube is a video-sharing platform featuring content ranging from gruesome to erotic. The more shocking the footage, the higher the view count, making it a sleazy online enterprise. Tomohiro Machiya, a member of the Film Research Club with a lifelong passion for recording, is approached by Mai Mashiro—a beautiful girl from the swim team. She asks him to film her nonstop for two full days. On the second day, however, Machiya sees Mashiro viciously kill one of their classmates. The crime is pinned on someone else, and Mashiro cheerfully reveals that their video won on Dead Tube. As more students at the school become involved with Dead Tube, many quickly find themselves in over their heads due to the penalties for losing the challenges. And because Machiya aided Mashiro's video, he too is forced to take part and keep filming for this lethal competition.
