I think this anime could have been much better if it wasn't episodic. And if it had to be episodic, it would have been really cool if all the seemingly unconnected episodes somehow meshed together to form a big connected storyline. Oh well, this series was still pretty decent, 6/10.
I thought so too but I realised they wanted to keep the storyline as real as possible!I mean what bigger plot could they conjure up to make "D-Agency" more relevent?

This also sums up my thoughts on this series having just got through it all in a day. The episodes that were the least episodic in nature were by far the most exciting. Though all of the episodes told stories well at the same time those stories were also often unfulfilling as they just couldn't be fleshed out enough. I think the first two episodes were really good, the cruise ship episode was good and the last 4 episodes that more or less centered on Yuki were pretty great. But I think those last few episodes left me with the sense that yes I would have liked a more connected story, even if it meant making the show smaller in scale.

Anyway for what it was Joker Game was a decent and very nicely presented series. Just maybe not what alot of us would have liked i.e a more connected storyline.

That was kind of an underwhelming episode

Pretty alright series overall


I felt the same way.

One of the worst stories to finish it off...

A quite good series finale. I think the latter half of the show (with the exception of the terrible "Codename: Cerberus") was a bit better than the former half and as a result I revised my rating from 6/10 to 7/10. A good espionage show that could have been better with a more carefully written script.

It's solid, bit slow - but I do like that there are some clues dropped one can pick up on to predict events, and the way the final reveal comes is absolutely thematically brilliant.

It's a solid one - you won't be blown away, but you'll be no worse for having seen it. I'd give it a B+.
