At around EP 3 this show was dropping in ratings and was sitting at nearly 7.21 for a while. Clearly people were impatient and quick to judge because each episode onwards hasn’t missed. And Yuuichi has quickly asserted himself as my top MCs in anime bar none. He’s cunning, ruthless, and doesn’t back down to any situation. Curse MAL and it’s stupid 10 favourite rule cause I want to add him to my list without replacing anyone.

Please feel free to let me know how has this show, and specifically the MC, has turned out for you over the last 11 weeks. We’re at the final episode so I’m curious what everyone’s opinions have been since the beginning of the show to now and the expectations moving towards the finale.

I'm source reader and Yuuichi is the most enjoyable fictional character for me.
His unconventional thinking, strategies and actions are so fun to read/watch.
Sadly anime couldn't do him justice enough.
I quickly hooked to the manga from the first chapters but I also understand why some anime watchers were quick to judge it.Cause anime couldn't really capture the atmosphere and tension in the manga.Nonetheless adaptation is just fine could have been better but there's nothing we can do.
All we can do is either accept it or complain.Complaining is exhausting so now I just accept the way it is.
Remember what Master Oogway told us:

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.

I wish we knew more about the characters coz without that, the stakes are non-existent and thereby the games fall flat. Yuuichi has potential as long as they don't mess up his backstory.

anime only here
tbh ep 1 kinda sucks, but it gets so much better later on. Yuichi is officially in my top 10 (or even 5) favourite MC!
8/10 from me

Morally gray and kinda mysterious. Very good.
It's cringe to see, that people are complaining about "MC being a bad person" and would prefer some bland and boring Kirito clone.

The episode I was most anticipating was episode 12, it was the episode that showed how Yuichi was different from the other mc. But I didn't expect it to be fair to the manga. at least I want it to come out looking good. and if they can't I will completely lose faith in their studio.

As an anime only, I'm really enjoying it. I think it's really entertaining. I thought it was moderate for the first 3 or 4 eps, but afterwards it really has found it's vibe, and I loved the entire 3rd game. But it looks like the final episode will be rushed. Hopefully not though.

The first half was mid. You can feel that the show struggles to tell you what schemes or manipulation that was going on. It felt messy. Another problem in the first half is that they keep telling us how amazing Yuuichi while showing too little.
However, the 3rd game started to get interesting. Tenji and Yuuichi started to show what kind of character they are, and episode 11 is the best one so far. There is finally emotional conflict and physical conflict, and because we finally know more about Yuuichi and Tenji, we are going to root for them in the next episode.

because he read nothing at first I too thought that people genuinely hated this anime but now I'm convinced these people just wanted to hate. This series is easily better than sxf yet it's way below that in terms of ratings

Don't mind them. There are several masochistic users out there which just love to post about how they hate this anime and wish it ends soon yet still keep watching it for some reason.

this show was kinda better than average

and yuichi was literally a mind-blowing mc

Wake up to reality! Nothing ever goes as planned in this accursed world.The longer you live, the more you realize that the only things that truly exist in this reality are merely pain, suffering and futility.Everywhere you look in this world,wherever there is light, there will always be shadows to be found as well.As long as there is a concept of victors, the vanquished will also exist.The selfish intent of wanting to preserve peace, initiates war and hatred is born in order to protect love.

The manga is objectively better than the anime, even so some ppl started appreciate the anime after the start of the 3rd game, i think this is just not for you, can't be helped.
Btw how many chapters did u read

Objectively better than the anime,indeed,but definitely not a good piece of fiction,with all modesty.
Just the 3rd game payoff.

That explains a lot. You should drop it tbh. While the first two games are indeed generic in the manga, the 3rd is where things really start to grow.
Now taking conclusions out of your ass based in a single chapter is pretty dumb and as a lot of anime-onlys said, yesterday episode was the best the anime had offered so far to them (and tbh the best part of the first half of Tomodachi Game in the manga imo), if you don't like that so just drop it, you'll be happy if you do it :)

Having read the manga, Yuuichi is a bastard who does psychotic shit to get ahead. It's so edgy that it somehow flips around to becoming funny as hell.

I think if the anime adapted further chapters, you could see just how far he's willing to go. The anime only scratches the surface.

He truly is the ultimate theater kid.

I enjoyed the concept of the show but the execution seems meh. Yuuichi is a good character but I haven't really come to like any characters, especially the girls who seem to fall in the tropey annoying category. The hide and seek game was probably the only one I enjoyed and everything else was overdramatic, the conversations were so unnatural and I couldn't care any less about the characters. But it's also not bad enough for me to drop it I guess. I'd give it a 6/10.
And before anyone is offended, Disclaimer- This is all just my personal opinion!!!

if you love yuichi then I will say you can't miss classroom of elite, both classroom of elite and tomodachi game are ar same level ( at least for me ) and if you like mc then you will definitely love ayanokoji too

That's Because they have nothing better to do, this season yuichi is one of the top protagonist and if y'all read the manga you will know what type of character he is, i really enjoyed this series and Mc, it's just that studio is new so adaptation isn't that great but that Just gives you the opportunity to read the manga.

Among the “genius playing death games” anime (though this isn’t a death game, but the show is laid out similarly), this one has been good. It’s intricacies aren’t ridiculous or completely unbelievable, yet they are satisfyingly complex and mysterious. We’ll see how it turns out ultimately, but so far I’ve thought very well of how the story is handled. That goes for the MC as well, and he is the source of most of those intricacies.

I was enjoying the death game sort of format with the funny mascots. I didn't like the turn in ep 11 though. No idea how they are going to wrap this up in a satisfying way with one ep left.

Subjectively speaking, that guy give me the supremacist vibe. For me, it's an annoying, pretentous and hypocritical hater. Dunno if he truly watched/ read or not but he has been actively berate the story with that type of abstract negative feedbacks and popping any chances given.
Objectively speaking, he has a questionable rating style, "wanna be critic" is a nice choice of word here bro.
Personally I don't think ppl with a right mind will rate something at 3/10 and below, only outright haters do. If ppl don't like it, they simply drop it. I don't see a point sticking to st 1/10 self-rated from the start to mostly finish, let alone actively joining discussions, like he has been doing since TG was aired.

The MC fared better than the show. He had fewer issues. The show on the other hand while not a disappointment, it certainly didn't reach it's potential, even though it could have, which is a shame.

If you ever read the manga you'll actually know he's one of the most entertaining characters out there.
Anime was just a prologue.
I'm gonna do my thing and highly encourage you to read the manga if you like high stakes and mind games genre.

Yeah I like those but the MC is very off putting, like based on what I've seen in the anime, he'll save shibe, and whatever going on with Shiho he'll reform her like with Tenji, with an established cast the MC is already predictable, I bet he'll turned back into his former self, but the others reformed by him they'll return the favor and in return reform him, classic nakama powah

Almost forgot about the organization, with friendship powah they'll take down the org with these 3 manager girls helping them coz they simp for MC, am I right or am I right? See it's so predictable

So I'm right then, he'll be predictable, MC thinks outside the box in every game, if that's all there is to offer, there's no surprise or any twist to the plot, we'll see he win no matter what, killing any thrill or tension, coz we know it's only a matter of time before he beat whatever game it is
