Man okay I guess that explains state of mind in episode one but man oh man that was a risky move by the anime creators. The main guy gave off the impression he was really dumb but now by episode 3 I guess he's okay. But I still don't like episode 2 and the girls even though they are high schoolers they are dumb.

The long hair guy with sunglasses looks like a smooth dude lol. He reminds me of Guyver 3.

Really beginning to like the OP now. This episode shed a lot of light on to what's happening. I love watching survival games so I'm looking forward to how it plays out. Next ep looks killer with the minor.

Easily the best episode so far.

Now I'm starting to get absorbed. I especially like the concept of chasing after food parachutes that could have bombs nearby, and not knowing what type of bombs you'll be getting.

And I like the old man as a character a lot too, he's real chill.

yeah this episode actually seemed a little slower in pace than the first two which i appreciated, but still had the action at the end, and of course introducing a couple new characters so yeah I'm kinda bedding into it now xD

Nice buildup in story, I rather thought he would be teaming up with that girl but well at least he teamed up with something and we've got some backstory what actually got them there in the first place. Lets see what's next!

Back to this series for a bit of marathoning. It actually seems better than I thought it was back in October, although I'm a bit ambivalent about the whole battle royal survival game genre (particularly when it involves women). I haven't read the manga yet, but that should be no handicap since folks are quite happy to provide all the information you want (or don't want for that matter) in spoilers. And I believe that the old guy is just a real estate trader from Osaka, yeah right--that would be enough to get him sent to this island for the game....

Once you accept that everyone who has been sent to this island has a reason for it--you'll learn that you can't trust appearances.
Please don't feed the trolls!

Sakamoto is rather conflicting - one minute wanting to play, then wondering how can people play this game.
I'm not a fan of such young kids being in the game though, even if this one seems demented.

This anime is a bit similar to Battle Royale, but I don't mind. They haven't turned it into anime.

This show has really been hitting the high notes for me these first few episodes, The main thing I am looking forward to seeing is the reasons why some of these characters were sent to the island in the first place.

Well that girl ran away because she hates men now. But will she change?
It looks like he got a partner but hopefully he doesn't betray him...

I like the old guy. He plays dumb even if he's fucking smart. The kid from the preview looks very hardcore too.
I wonder when Himiko will join Ryouta's team. (Most likely she will.)

Battle Royale was better. But eve nalong the seemingly similar plot line, this show was funny. I mean honestly now, there wer 30 people on that plane with no more than 10 guards with stun guns...and this all happened anyways. HI..>LARIOUS!

That old guy, I wouldn't underestimate him. He's pretty though and I think that comes because of his job. Anyways was an very interesting and revealing episode. Now we know why there on the island and what they have to do to get back home.

Sad enough that they had to kill each other. That kid at the end omg, that's pretty creepy. And now I don't have a good feeling for this old guy :(

PS: Is it just me or looked this guy who explained the rules like a fat Ash from Pokemon? O.o

how the hell a video game company can afford this let alone get away with this. Also we got a little background on what is going on. Though I wonder who the hell will pick kids to dissapear. I saw a little girl in the dam plan and speaking of kids looks like we got our anime psycho coming up. I liked the fact sakamoto was more interested in food then boobs. Nice to get away from so much rape in the last episode. I also laughed when random lady was tasered off the plan.

Why is Btooom's listen genre not include romance?

The whole plot fits more to hentai than anything else, especially with those rape scenes.

Wow, that episode went by fast. Taira is a great guy, lmao. I keep getting distracted by Sakamoto's insanely good looks, he reminds me of Light in a way. DAMMIT! I knew that kid with the blue hoodie would be plot relevant! SHIT! STOP MAKING EVERYONE SO GOOD LOOKING! The boy is more prettier than a girl!

Bit of a background telling on the game, but there's still too much we don't know. Though this episode atleast explained why the main dude's amnesiac.

Hope old man sticks around rather getting blasted just an episode or two later.

The old guy makes empathetic points. I'd try and escape the island myself, rather than murder innocent people. Of course, you'd still want to keep the bombs ready for self-defense anyway, so he's right to be cautious about giving all the specifics away. Could very well be a facade, and he very much intends to win the "game", but the surface intent would be similar to my own views on this.

MC understanding the type of situation his in: people's willing to kill anyone to win the game and get out of the island. Very cool to see all this develop. I wanna see more.

I somehow like this episode more than the first two ones. you really feel the survival game now and the psychological plotting.
