Pathfinder. It works for everything.
EVERYTHING!
I would use a simple system because I know if one of my players doesn't I will start an actual campaign in game.
>Dm PC "hey guys want to play a game of Apocalypse World?"
>Player 1 "what's tha?"
>Player 2 "can't we do D&D5th?"
>DM PC "if your want to run it 2"
>Player 2 "no I'm good IDK how"
>Player 3 explains apocalypse world to player 1
>DM PC kills himself his suicide note says he can't take being the forever GM anymore that's why he started this meta slice of life game with the slight hope that someone would Jump in and let him finally be a player

Smallville, sounds stupid but actually works really well for creating drama around mundane events.
Legends of the Wulin.

Have the players roll to see if they get swirlied or crammed into their own locker, modified by what clique they're part of.

The first session is freeform and begins with the characters arguing what system to use for their campaign.
Second session uses whatever system the characters ended up using, or one that fits the insane bullshit that happened in freeform.
Paranoia. Replace "Friend Computer" with "The Superintendent", "High Programmers" with "Teachers", "Briefing officers" with "upperclassmen", and "treason" with "antisocial", and so on. Then proceed to run Paranoia with a thin high school disguise and see how long it takes players to catch on to what they're actually playing.
Risus

Why the everloving fuck would anyone want to play something like that? That sounds excruciatingly boring AT BEST, and "Hey, gang, let's dredge up a bunch of memories you've been trying very hard to repress!" at worst.

This Maid RPG hack that makes it about high school clubs.
>>46751211
The only acceptable answer.
>>46751189
D&D.
We're gonna be chuuni.
>>46751836
What about the mutations, the killings, etc.
>>46755523
What about them?
GURPS maybe?
>>46751189
I wouldn't.
Savage Worlds
>>46751189
Monsterhearts or Lycéenes.
>>46751189
FATE or >>46752181
Had an idea to use Dont Rest Your Head as a coming of age story. Dying just means your character grew up to take responsibilities and leaves childish imagination behindDeath is inevitable in the system

I'd probably go with WoD, d20 would only work if I also wanted it to be magic girl, the 40K games aren't a good fit, Shadow Run could work, GURPS could work.
Now tell me why noone in that image is using their desk as cover.
