I loved him from the beginning when I first read the manga.
... and I love how they did a great job in his art/graphics/animation of his appearance in the anime.

I'm not sure why I'm making this thread but I've always found Ryota really "good looking" *cough* shut up... I know I'm a guy but... no homo.
He's cool, handsome, scared to say but sexy and very good looking, He's a great protagonist to love!

... just wish there were more fan art pictures or at least more/great anime screen shots of him.

He is very interesting person, I must say ^^

I like him too, I think he is going to my favorite character list as only male character.
(I was thinking to add him when started to read manga, but didn't got time to do that)

Can't say he's my favorite among the survival game manga protagonists, I found him lacking when compared to his colleagues who are trapped in similar situations.

Yea that was awful.
Not dropping it yet though, despite this case of shocking retardation, it might be decent still.

Yea that was dumb but I guess it's more of him still trying to get to grips with his situation. He's still in a state of disbelieve and confusion from waking up in the middle of nowhere and suffering from slight amnesia.



But he's definitely not a stupid protagonist as using bombs requires a lot of anticipation, quick thinking and reading the opponent which all comes into play later on in the story.

Just because he didn't figure out that the bomb was a countdown bomb in seconds...

Most people who fail to figure out that a bomb has a countdown timer "within seconds" tend to be given darwin awards. I'm angry that he didn't die a very stupid death. His stupidity coupled with the fact that his insides didn't get liquidized from the force of so many explosives going off so close to him (during the chase) also irritated me.

There are plenty of reasons why I decided to drop this (Cliche's, stereotypes, refusal to suspend disbelief) but his stupidity was at the top of the list.

Okay, you have a point there. But I assumed he was just panicking and stressed out since he was stuck in this game.
I do enjoy BTOOOM! a lot so far and Sakamoto's one fail won't make me drop a show.

I'm not voting on this poll until I see more of his character.

Nah, he treated his mother like shit because she was helping him. My favourite character would be the old guy or


Also, it's weird that he has so much agility for a NEET.

I can't believe that the guy who voiced as Ryota Sakamoto was the same actor who played Joichiro Nishi from Gantz Perfect Answer.

I also had the same thought as you , but still I continued and found out that it actually made sense . The explanation is explained in the later eps so dropping it right off the bat is a bad idea .

Actually high voltage can't damage your brain, only high current can do that, You are only paralyzed for a few minutes because your muscles are shut down. Trust me, i'm studying engineering.

I also hate Ryouta because of the way he treats his parents, especially after seeing episode 5, for god sake he could have killed his mother when he threw shit on episode one, it even broke the wall.

Guys do you know a word called ''Shock''?
... Sigh well..
During shock state sometimes people can't think or react normally. Imagine having an amnesia, no clue where you are, or why you are there in the first place, you are given these bomb ''looking'' things that you aren't event sure if they are bombs. Well at least he was able to throw them away at right time. It's not like he was dumb, he was just under shock. =.=

Also did you hope for a perfect main character person at the beginning of episodes? Yes he treated his family like ****, but on that island he is becoming a better person, that's what it is all about. He finally starts to see what he has done wrong in his life. Sigh.

Also yeah i like the character design as well, but you know it is not that original though. Yagami Light and Zwei from Requirem of Phantom look a lot like him too. But still , not bad. :)

Ahaha man, looking at this today this is fucking embarrassing.

Me and my stupid forced cute teen talk days wtf.
... In all seriousness and maturity of today. I love great characters that are good looking and generally dislike characters that are ugly, especially if they are bad flat or not great characters.

I believe he is dumb, just read the manga and seeing him doing many dumb things just making me mad sometimes.

Example, how could he fallen to the same little Boy trick twice or maybe more? And why he still trusting everybody and believe that everything can be solved by some chit - chat?
