| the snake guy is just creepy |

| They're really going for the Mirai Nikki appeal. Crazy girl suddenly in love with the self-insert protagonist. This episode seemed mostly about Shuuka and attempting to explain the convoluted game. The only way they can go from here is down. I hope this show goes balls to the wall stupid rather than trying to take itself way too seriously. |
 |
| This episode was idiot, how can the enemy just surrend the game without problems when we learned in the past episode that we can't???? |
 |
| Not too bad, pretty entertaining. I will watch just for Shuka at this point. |
 |
| LOLZ Mashiro Ayano's ED sound's like ED for UBW...lolz 4/5. |
 |
| Show has a knack for silly episode endings I see. It was alright. |
| I´m just sad, as someone that reads the manga, seeing that this is getting a "will do just one season" treatment. That´s the only reason for them to just cut out All the detectives scenes. And was really looking forward for the anime, sad. |

| ok its interesting, i'll watch more of it. its obviously not good in plot but entertaining as hell. guilty pleasure of the season. i enjoy tag team pairings, so this will be fun to watch if they can work together to beat other players. |
| The romance feels strange, like Shuka already fell for Kaname. Kaname seems ordinary, but he's quite strategic. |
| I don’t think that much blood comes out when you hit the floor |
| Ed song is pretty but the visuals for it are boring |
| A strange episode. The flow of events isn't a problem, as such, but it does feel like a few things are being skipped to keep things moving. And why does everyone trust the information girl, when she's not just helping people on all sides but is also a player in the game herself? It feels like a cheap way to give characters knowledge they would have no way of otherwise getting, as it makes absolutely zero sense if you think about it at all. |
| i really REALLY don't like how they cut out all the police investigations. That's what makes this series so great and unique from other survival games: the fact that their actions don't have no consequences and they can't just murder whoever whenever cause it'll still be a murder case and they can become a suspect in police investigation. I'd waited AGES for the police suspecting the mc scenes and they fucking decided not to include the best part. FUCK YOU STUDIO NEXUS!!!

ThatsNotGaming said: I would enjoy this anime so much more if it wasn't for the super cliche anime tropes that it's got going on. Bland generic main character who acts like a pussy but somehow lucks his way through every situation. Random crazy yandere girl who likes to get naked and sleeps next to the main character after just meeting him and of course the main character is always too much of a pussy to fuck her despite having every opportunity to do so. 1. mc isn't a pussy as shown in how he used his brains to defeat his opponent. You really think him creating that diversion with the gun in his fight with Shuka and using the knowledge the blond guy told him against him and taking his phone hostage are all mere luck? 2. Shuka isn't a yandere nor is she crazy. She doesn't LIKE to get naked. Some people just like to sleep naked bruh. But I admit that's just for the sake of unnecessary fanservice. 3. Fuck her? that's rape bro. I don't know what kind of country you live in but in my country rape is immoral and a crime. |

You might just be delusional. Or you're doing some serious mental gymnastics with a distorted sense of reality. 3. I didn't say anything about rape. She took him to her house and slept naked on top of him, if that isn't her consenting than I don't think you know what is. |
| Didin't think i would like the girl in the red dress to begin with but shes starting to grow on me. Guess they're the type of characters you need to see on screen enough to get behind. |
| I really liked the last scene, the slight tick created an apathetic atmosphere. The information broker is interesting, I'd like to see how she fights, or what happens if she isn't paid what she's owed lol Shuka looked cute in that outfit, definitely not like a mass murderer |

It's fanservice. If thats a mental issue that all girls in ecchi hentai animes are delusional 3. Consent must be verbal. I cant believe I honestly have to explain this to someone. To think that in this day and age there is someone who doesn't know what consent is. No wonder there are so many rapist in this world. Also raping a girl when she's sleeping is somnophilia. |
| It's an okay episode. As I said before, Kaname's design is better in the manga. Something about this animation just doesn't sit well with me. His face looks elongated. Shuka looks cute but her cutesy voice around Kaname is kind of annoying tbh. She sounds sexier when she's talking seriously like during her phone conversation with |

Raynarx said: This episode was idiot, how can the enemy just surrend the game without problems when we learned in the past episode that we can't???? Umm....No. That's not how it works. Firstly, you still lose some points for surrendering. Like how Shuka lost 600 point to Kaname. Secondly, surrender only end the match, it won't stop another player from killing you. Thirdly, since you can't refuse the battle from enemy in front of you, even if you surrender one game, they will just challenge you again right after. So, unless you're fighting with an opponent who doesn't intend to kill you or doesn't want all of your point, surrender won't benefit you in anyway. If you manage to kill another player, you get all of the point they have, with this in mind, an unfriendly opponent will go after your life for all of your points. |

| i like the manga better than the anime. |
I love K-On, and so should you.  |
| this show is pretty enjoyable so far, honestly. lets just hope they keep it action-heavy and easy to watch. I feel like this is the kind of show that suffers from taking any big risks. the whole game setup is simple but effective, and as a gacha addict I had to smirk at some of the elements like point-pulling weapon gacha. the characters also make a surprising amount of sense for these kind of shows, maybe Shuka feels a little too bendable for me but its ok |
| Well now that I have an idea about the plot, isn't this more of Mirai Nikki than King's Game? Holy crap that girl at the end got a gruesome death |
 |
| liked this episode more than the first one, and so an arc finally starts. |
| this is going somewhere, I am more interested if the teleportation piece by piece is something they will find out and who the master mind is of the D-Game is the big question here like is the MC just gonna create harem/clan/family and play the game and get good at killing people or will he solve the Master mind behind the D-Game? That's what I wanted to know... |
 |
| Pretty bad episode. MC is too ignorant, he should start to get more aware of his surroundings and it was pretty stupid how he and Shuka were separated. The new event sounds interesting. |

If it wasn't for those things, this anime would be so much more interesting. I'm hoping it gets better later on, still watching for now but we'll see. This, Shuka in particular was painted as a far more interesting character in episode 1, in episode 2 it's like her personality and realness plummeted in order to appeal to fan service and tropes. |

Strategy my ass, he got lucky that his friend cared enough to try to save him in episode one, and lucky again that he was able to figure out what his siegel was just in the nick of time to be able to use it before getting killed. Also, all the girls in anime and hentai are not real bro, you seem to think their behaviour is normal when it's not. That's fantasy written by sad and lonely men that fantasize women to be the way they want them to be. Also clearly you don't know shit about being with girls since you probably never been with one yourself... Again I'm not talking about rape, especially not when she is asleep. He can wake her up and go from there. If she goes along with it (which she likely would based on the circumstances and if she's into it), then he absolutely can and should do it! Of course if she refuses, then you stop, but these things are subtle my guy. You don't explicitly ask for consent in that sort of situation, that just completely ruins the mood and makes your look like a pussy that doesn't take the lead. Come back and talk to me after you have some experience. |
ThatsNotGaming said: that was anime original. In the manga his friend died in the beginning and thus the mc defeated the Noob Hunter all on his own. Like Shuka said, using your sygil is like breathing. Figuring it out isn't luck if it's something so easy to figure out.of course girls in anime aren't real, but that doesn't mean they don't act like real girls when it comes to rape. You said the mc should wake her up and go from there, which he did, and she didn't show any sign of wanting to have sex with him. And to not ask for consent because it'd ruin the mood? Again you're not understanding how consent works. You should always ask for consent no matter the circumstances. It's not asking that can end up getting you into a hell of a lot of trouble.ttcchen said: 1. Seems like you can't tell strategy unless it's spelled out to your face. 2.

| well just saw the 2 eps. feels good. I hope it wont be like osama game or any other death game anime adapation where it goes downhill. ANN seems to have mixed views on it |
