the main guy is slow in the head


Yeah that impression was left to many of us. The time he took to realize that the countdown was a timer was beyond ridiculous. What exactly did he thought those decreasing numbers in a bomb could possibly be?

Well it looks like it can be fun but it will be nice if the avoid some stupid factors that this episode had like the above and how he seemed to not get hurt by all those bombs exploding in his face. Not to mention how stupid it was the other guy was missing all the time when our main wasn't exactly being awesome in avoiding him.
I liked the visuals and character desighn. They look really nice.

Btw is this some BR type anime where they punish people for not comforting to society?

Quite a fast introduction to everything a bit to fast if you ask me, the setting is quite nice and the concept as well. The reason why he's on that island is probably because he just ranked 10 so now with killing that dude probably nr9 he'll get a rank higher, and so on to nr1 or at least that's what I think the concept behind this all is.

Not a bad start, the pace of this episode was quite decent as well so lets see what the whole serie has to offer in the end!

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.... what could it be??? A TIMER!!!!!!!!!

The protagonist is really annoying. It didn't impress me at all, but I'll give it a chance.

lol Ryouta reminds me of Light Yagami in how he talks to himself and they looks pretty similar.

One thing I noticed is how athletic that dude against him was.. I doubt a top gamer would be that athletic and dressed like that haha.. An interesting anime though.

The way dude threw that controller at the wall in response to get mad at his mom was crazy. I thought dude would have more integrity than that based on how he was acting so scared of killing the dude that was trying to kill him. But I guess dude has let the playing Btooom! get to his mind to the point where sometimes it hard for him to differentiate reality from fantasy. I mean what if he aim was off and that controller would have actually hit his mom? She probably would have had a bloody fucking face. God man that's your mom, calm down...

I agree Nikolaevich, I mean he supposed to be one of the top 10 players. What is taking him so to recognize stuff he use and see in the game he player like 24/7?

Well that was a little crazy. I love video games, but I certainly don't treat my mom like that...the main character is a douchebag.

Though how the heck did he end up playing the game in real life...interesting premise.

Well, the main character seems to be an asshole. I hope he has some redeeming qualities. And that the anime reveals the reasoning behind the players being put in the game.
I like the idea of that crystal though, it's rather interesting that they can't exactly hide. But shouldn't have the blonde guy's bombs blown up? The explosion should have been enough of an impact.

I was looking forward to this, but the first episode is pretty damn bad, especially the main character's plot fucking armor. Lmao he wasn't even burnt after the bombs exploded near him, and of course you got a cute girl washing herself in front of the main character, I bet she couldn't see him sleeping nearby, right? Actually he was fucking in front of where she is, but eh, whatever.

OP is meh, ED is bad.

How did Sakamoto not die? I counted at least 3 deaths. The bomb doesn't have to literally touch you to kill you.

Sakamoto seems like an idiot too. What could the timer on the bomb mean... Oh well on to the next episode.

Having trouble finding a show that can hold my attention for 5 minutes. *sigh* I guess I can pull through this for 12ep.

MC has got to be retarded. He doesnt recognize an island/jungle map from his favorite online game after running straight through it; He doesnt recognize the bombs from his favorite online game; He fucking doesnt know that a digital number display that counts down from 10 is a fucking timer. And the plot armor is so strong. Like 4 bombs blow up less than a foot away from MC and not even a scratch, only knock back.

-enemy is smart enough to throw 2 bombs in different directions. omg so cool.
-cant hear timer beeping below him
-MC discounts murder with "self defense" "Its not my fault"

Hmm it's a good start for an I think interesting anime.

Sure the mc seems a little dumb but in this situation you wouldn't think rational. You never killed someone in your life and then you have no other choice or you will die. That's pretty crazy.

I'm not sure how this will go on. But oh man the fanservice at the end was really nice. Ryoutas body wasn't for this blonde beauty :D

Looking forward for the next episodes.

PS: OP is super nice and ED is also okay :)

Well the MC seemed fine till that flashback. He was a dick to his mom. Hes unemployed,yelled at her and threw a controller so hard that if it hit her it will kill her. I still wonder why she had dead eyes in the first flash back. I hope he shows some regret for begin a dick.Well besides all that the show seems pretty interesting and boy did we get our tit shot rather fast. I also find it funny that the female design for the game is basically butt naked.

I definitely watched Btoom before, so now I am wondering why I stopped? Also, Sakamoto is so good looking, is that even fair?! *punches fist in the air* I might have stopped from fanservice, though my memory doesn't really lend me any thoughts that there was fanservice in this anime.
