| Episode 3 already and it has become edgy! 3/5. |
 |
| In many ways a b-lister. |
| i really wish this got more than 11 eps. shame. gues sill have to read the manga wen the anime is said and done is the anime just there to boost manga sales like every anime seems to do nowdays |
| Dio, I mean, the florist's sigil is pretty op lmao. But, we still haven't seen the loli's sigil yet which is exciting to see |
 |
| DIO is now a florist xD |
 |

| Dio's new SUTANDO PAWAAAAAA is looking pretty neat xD |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| Ooooh yeaaa give me more of that shaky camera. |
| This episode would have been far more interesting if they hadn't stood in front of the elevator talking for so long: not only did that make the episode lack any real tension, it also raises the question of why the Florist didn't use his mind-controlled players to attack sooner. Death Gun was just sat there in the elevator for ages and could have easily killed them at any point while they were standing around taliing. |
| Nice episode, so far my favorite anime of the season. |
| D-Game, the Treasure Hunt, knows its objective, but Kaname isn't having a second thought about its underlying tones, being the smart-ass wuss every step of the way. But damn, for someone's Sigil to trap players within, that's some trickery. And for that, he tags along with Rein the Analyst as she drops her info know-how towards how he survived with not luck, but agility. Plus that, the playing ground is full of onlookers with unknown motives, but is sure of one thing: like a casino of a big corporation of some kind. The Florist's Sigil is sure crazy, but Kaname felt it as though it's on his lips as he conquers more. Good episode. |

| I liked the skull guy encounter. People complaining about the fact that he just let him go - that's just character development. Would YOU just up and kill this guy in cold blood? Not everyone would. I think back to the scene in Breaking Bad where the Nazis let Walt live and let him keep a barrel of money when they could have just killed him and stolen it; completely goes against their own interests, but that's just human behavior, not everyone is a mindless killer.

You can't call plot hole here when we don't even know exactly how the power works. It seems reasonable to assume that the plant takes a while to take someone over.

| Shoot first, think never. |
| It was edgy ever since that outro in every episode. . . |
| But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. |
| This anime is getting better i think. The fights are nice. |
 |
| Pretty cool, my money has him on blowing the buidling up somehow. |
| Rain is the calm character we needed, finally a player who doesn't want to kill everything that moves. Good build-up episode. |
| Another awesome episode, i am really enjoying this show! Rein was introduced this episode, and i really like her character, their chemistry is also good! Shuka is doing her deadly moves, obvious she is first! Kaname managed to realized flourist plans, yeah was a simple strategy to use the cameras of the hotel! Looking forward more ! |

| GG team xD, btw Shuka now get 6 bracelet |

| Maybe there is a clarification for it but still, Kaname should have tried and see if he could create the rings. Not gonna lie, the rings hunt modality seems quite entertaining but the interactions between characters could be better. OK episode overall. |

I mean it's not a plot hole, it actually makes sense in real life. SouthRzVa said: Maybe there is a clarification for it but still, Kaname should have tried and see if he could create the rings.

My theory is that he can only copy and recreate weapons, not just about any object... The ring doesn't have any hidden power, it's just something decorative. |

He copied and recreated the nurse's pen in Ep. 1 tho... |
| This episode was good |
 |
| Damn, Shuka is terrifying when she's at her A game. She's so badass. |
 |
| Honestly, from watching these episodes, im getting fat BTOOM! vibes...and i love it... |
| survival game at its best though I expected more action from this.. |

| When kaname approach the florist Hoo… mukatte kuru no ka…… |
| So, doesn't he duplicate those guns everytime he uses his sigil? I wonder how many pistols he has at his home right now. Police certainly would not be happy about it. |

| OK episode. How tf does his sigil work though, I'm confused. I'm not sure why but these abilities give me a "deadmans wonderland" vibe. |
 |
| It really piss me off when the guy couldn't shoot Kaname because his gun was stuck. Bulllshit plot reason. Also, he could just create the rings with his Sygil but it would be too "convenient" for the game. 2/5 |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Another dope episode! The florist voice is definitely very recognizable. I like what he said at the end about being less guilty about it, presumably about killing people in this game, that gave him more character than just the mindless kill machines like a couple of other characters we've seen so far. I liked what Shuka said about Kaname being in the building, that was funny as hell she said that Kaname probably already had all the rings but he's actually struggling (with himself) and was at one point almost dead. Kaname pointing the gun at the armored guy, scared to shoot also reminded me of a scene in One Piece where Shanks said that the gun is not a toy. You gotta be prepared to shoot or be shot when you wield that thing. |

| Man, what a design; these rings can supposedly be tracked by the players using their phones. Possessing only one makes you a moving target to all of the players. Interesting. This is the exact sort of thrill I was looking for. Decent episode. The Florist's sigil is too OP. |
| Evacuating the city was a good move on the writers part. Having to try and explain that an entire city would have no idea what Darwins Game was, or that people were murdering each other left, right an center would have been a mess. This random assignment of powers seems pretty stupid. I mean, i suppose some of the lesser powers could be used to great effect, but we just saw someone who's power appeared to be 'the ability to use a crossbow with 4 bolts'. I can see very few situations where that power would be useful against ANYONE, let alone with some of the Sigils the others have. I mean, if the guy she teamed up with decided he didn't want her around anymore, his Sigil was to be able to control projectiles even in mid flight. So now we know there's an audience and a group of people placing bets and the like over this Darwins Game. Starting to remind me an awful lot of Juuni Taisen. At least there's now a partial explanation as to where this app came from. It would have been pretty annoying to just say, yeah this app exists and you have to kill each other, and have no rhyme or reason for it existing in the first place. The series is getting better, but i can defo see how that 1st episode would have put people off watching the rest. |

| MC should've been killed but then the anime would be over...What a pusssay |
 |
| Kaname should have done some preparation for this event instead of shopping for clothes with Shuka. Nice to see his ability has some limitation on that he can't just create anything without having touched it first makes it a little bit less overpowered. smh why should you be afraid of some flower guy?!? oh wait the VA it can't be....it was him DIO!!! |
 |
So basically we have a pacifist MC in a death game. In order for him to survive, they had to give him a partner who is an excellent killer. Now he can spout all sorts of sniveling while his partner kills what needs to die. Then we throw in the Brain Loli to give them a recon report on all situations. Pretty much liking most characters except the MC...this is my Sigil. I produce anime with lame MC's.  |
 |
| Imagine if he could produce a limitless supply of those flash grenades. Also there's probably some unknown restriction on his powers but wouldnt it be cool if he can cheese the game by producing those rings himself. |
 |
| Does he even have to play lol, just wait for Shuka. She already has 6 rings. But whatever. It was also stupid for Rein to expose that she's the anaylst. |
