As you might sigure out from synopsis, this anime is trying to be something like Squid Game in sort of its own way. I wouldn't really say it's bad anime but I wouldn't say it's good either. My review contains spoilers but not such would ruin your enjoyment or surprise.
Story in this anime is very plain and simple, nothing hard to understand. There are even reasons, why this anime could be good with some care:
1) Main characters are cool and look really smart, trying to push their limits
2) If you like logical and psychological anime, you'll see this one as interesting too
3) Animations and the

This anime is interesting. Eventually, there comes the revelations of the characters' secrets. It is full of twists and turns, and how this game shows the unmasking of characters' real selves are great. It would make those who watch stop and think about the possible things that might happen to the characters and it's actually so exciting. This is recommended for people who enjoys watching mysterious and smart main characters and those people who love watching characters that outsmarts each other. Moreover, watching how this friendship game ends is also interesting as well as more secrets that are to be revealed.

It is one of the few Anime whose Opening I actually like. The actual Anime was alright, can't say more unless Season 2's out.
Here's what my friend wants to say Honestly, this anime has a common story centered on psychological manipulation and trust issues among friends, but it falls short in execution. Predictable plot twists diminish the suspense, though fans of the genre might still find it a bit boring. The art style is fitting but unremarkable, complementing the intense atmosphere without standing out. Characters are kinda dumb, making their interactions predictive. Their reactions to events are mostly same, though sometimes exaggerated. While it may ... Oct 11, 2022
I haven't read the manga, just the anime. The beauty of this anime is the tactical game and the way the protagonist deals with pressure issues. It reminded me a lot of some anime like Gantz, Karegurui and Tenku Shipan.
The beginning is a little bad for lack of depth and amount of characters that start to be added out of nowhere (episode 1 and 2), but then you forget and end up focusing on the plot sort of automatically. Still, with so many loose ends, it is desirable to wait for a second season to see the outcome of the plot. I recommend. Previous - |
