| I couldn't get invested in the characters, because this all feels like sudden moments all thrown together. |

| August 6th 2023: Biggest upset ever, deception, selfishness, or scammed, manipulated. Heavy damage costs, and more. Days since: 15 Last updated: 8/21/2023 One Piece Episode 1041 & 1042 & 1047 & 1048 & 95.75%/1049 & 1053 were a mistake and Uta brought the salvation -AhriTheS3xyFox |
| This episode really hurts to watch, which I commend them for nailing the whole torture scene Overall I'm okay with the first game, second game dragged a bit too long for my liking and third game was enjoyable along with Tenji's turnaround as a character Time to add this manga to my PTR list |
| Lol at Manabu reading a shonen magazine. Fitting since this show screams 'shonen' really hard and most certainly not in a good way. |
 |
| okay now its the long wait for season 2, or maybe i can find the manga second hand |
 |
| man this has been like the only good anime this season. it has been littered with garbage. |
 |
| In one game, Yuuichi made that piece of shit burn every single one of his bridges. Cold. Then again that “game” wasn’t shit. I mean 3 ripped nails? A hole in his hand? Punched 3 times and probably cracked a few ribs? Dude took it all like a champ. Seeing Yuuichi revert to that darker side of his personality is still pretty chilling. He honestly looked like he was having a blast in Rock, Paper, Fingers. When he was about to slice that dude’s fingers off, he looked like he was getting off watching that dude squirm. That idiot thought he was hot shit because he’s got “brains, guts, and never betrays his friends” haha. Well I guess he ain’t got shit now! Management about to wreck that fool I’m sure. One thing I’m curious about though is how did that idiot even know about the game? Who told him about Yuuichi? I kinda feel like Kokorogi is involved somehow. I know we’ve finished the series, but I still don’t trust that chick. Like not one bit. I never thought Tenji would be the real homie after everything that went down. I take back all the shit I said about him because he’s actually a bro. I hope Yuuichi is able to join this next game to save Shibe. I don’t trust Tenji with Kokorogi. She can’t be trusted, I’m telling y’all! Also, where tf is Shiho? Girl just vanished when her friends need her the most. Yeah, totally 100% not sus at all -_- With the way they ended on that cliffhanger, I hope we get another season! This series should have been 24 eps instead of 12. It’s too good. |
| Anime watcher here. As much as I enjoyed the series, this last episode was a bit disappointing. The sudden announcement of a special game on the previous episode made it sound big and exciting, but the way they handled it on this episode was terrible. I don't know how it went in the manga or how many chapters the studio attempted to fit on a last ditch effort, but I can tell that it didn't make justice to the manga considering its score compared to the adaptation. That being said, I'll read the manga because I don't want to wait for god knows how many months for a second season to be announced. |

I wish I enjoyed it as much as some people in this post do :( A 3/10 for me. I’m a nobody so for the “Tomodachi game” fans, don’t worry or get annoyed by a random like me, just enjoy the fucking show :) It is not just the facial expressions they skipped also some dialoges and other things. But the Manga is not much different than the anime. So I am VERY VERY sure you won´t like it too. Well it is nothing wrong to not like an anime others do. This Anime is just not your thing :) |
What the hell is this ending? The pacing was terribly fast that I thought I was watching at 2x speed, plus some dialogues skipping which literally destroyed the sense of suspense and thrill the original Manga has conveyed. No Game No Life also had that Rock-Paper-Scissor game but it did way better. Overall, this Anime is a bad adaption, just read the Manga if you got hooked. |

shash_king18 said: This final episode, even tho was quite rushed but still it was really painful especially when he had to lose 3 nails in the process. I liked this finale although I found that trick of using left hand really dumb, I mean it was quite cheap & easy trick which was quite predictable and yeah now let's see what's there in manga............ I think if you could loose all your fingers you don`t alway think rational (because you are frightened and panick a bit) So my guess would be that Yuuichi cornerd him so Kuroki could not think right (remember, Yuuichi is good in manupulating other people) |
| Hmm I really wish this show had ended right after the 3rd game. Using the finale to set up all this craziness with Shibe going on trial and Shiho going missing, without any concrete confirmation of a potential 2nd season, just feels messy. Not a fan of ending stuff on cliffhangers and then just leaving the audience in limbo like this. Obviously if the end is a cliffhanger and we know a 2nd season is on the way then that's different, but this definitely feels like a "ok go read the manga now" type of ending. Then again, from the jump this anime did always have that "simply an advertisement for the source" vibe. Complaints aside, the mind games were fun to watch sometimes. I'm sure it could get old seeing all of Yuichi's plans work out perfectly, even when it seemed like something was going south (aha! That was part of the plan too!), but I didn't really mind. It was an ok anime, decent enough for if you're looking for something to satisfy that psychological itch. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
| Wow I want season 2 so bad rn. I came in with 0 expectations and ended up being one of the most entertaining shows of the season, with the bad animation aside I really enjoyed this show. Hope they make a season 2. |
 |
| Dude people nowadays unironicilly expect God-tier colourful animation quality from each anime they watch lmao The animation was nothing special but it never bothered me, this anime was actually my favourite one this Spring season and is currently second place behind AOT Part 2 in my top 5 favourite animes this year, really enjoyable and full of unexpected and mind-blowing twists 💀 It had me at the edge of my seat every single week with no exceptions and no matter how busy I was I always made time for it 💀 it made me wanna read the manga cliffhanger after cliffhanger but now I'm definitely doing it, 9/10 🤪👍🏽  |

Oh look, he gets beaten up, he gets three fingernails pulled and stabbed another three times, just because… Why exactly? To prove a point? So stupid. To be honest, this idea of having a character so smart who does this things just proves the show is not clever. The pain, suffering and other occurrences are in your face just for the sake of it (I’m ok with other shows that have blood or violence btw, so it’s not the problem).

| It's been a while since I've seen a show that genuinely had me on the edge of my seat every week, and Tomodachi Game did just that. Almost every week had a twist, and that made it one of the surprise shows of the season. For the final episode we had some pretty intense stuff, and even if they didn't show it directly, I still had flinched a bit with some of the pain inflicted during the "games." We also got to see Yuichi really off the rails today, though I have to wonder if he's not just dipping back into his "old" personality instead of going crazy. It always amazes me how he manages to switch things up in every game. Overall, this show is probably my AOTS (of the shows I've watched). That's not to say it didn't have it's own issues of course. There were some obvious pacing issues with things going too fast or too slow at times, and I'm sure the art/animation could have been better. However, this was a really great show, and I'm hoping we get a second season in the near future. 8.5/10 |

| Sasuga tomodachi game! The last episode was just as godawful and braindead as the rest. Hilarious waste of time 2/10 |

Also Tomodachi game was a hidden gem this season. Unfortuneately, there are too many Anya simps around... |

Hussein- said: Planning on reading the manga should i start from the beginning or after where the anime ended ? You would not miss anything storywise but they skipped many dialoges and the art and exspecially the pacing is so much better that I would recommend you to start from the beginning |
| Every scene of Yuuichi trying to look insane or w/e was so bad that it was funny. The games and "twists" were terrible and predictable. I have absolutely 0 clue how people like this show. Feels like the author must be genuinely stupid if he can't come up with better ways to make his main character seem smart. When I was watching the rock paper scissors scene, I said out loud, "If he uses his left hand, this show is awful." |
| Yuichi taking all the pain was pretty obvious. Yutori was as annoying as ever. She's the worst of the five out there. Someone give Tenji a break. And where is Shiho? Did I missed something? I don't mind the pacing...much. We need another season. 7/10 |
