Joker Game Episode 11 Discussion

Sorry guys *cries*. I rewatched the episode and I still stand on my statement. I don't believe he's dead. I can't, beacuse I think a piece is missing from this whole puzzle that doesn't let me being fully convinced in his death. No matter how much it's true I won't be able to wrap my head around of it to the very end.



Isn't it? The spies so far were overconfidently carrying out their missions; that's why Miyoshi's death is something I can hardly accept it happened.

And, I wanna mention something. I don't feel anything about Miyoshi; I don't like him nor dislike him; but I honestly find his death a cheap move by the author. It's stupid, no? Miyoshi is the star among the elite spies, it's just...argh, untinkable for him to die! This episode literally left me so frustrated.

Hi, I'm still in the middle of reading the novels, but the stories/missions are episodic so they do not really affect each other directly. You wouldn't hear the character of one mission interact with a character in another mission. The only continuous element with each story is Yuuki, so he is essentially the main character of the entire series. Sakuma probably won't return? But I'm still reading...
The novels don't pinpoint which spy from the school is on which mission, that was the anime staff's decision. So, in terms of the anime, Miyoshi is dead.

Eh? No-one's ugly in Joker Game. At least not the spies, lol.

Odagiri is

He looks fat

NemuriNezumi said:


if I'm not mistaken Odagiri comes from a military background, so his body must be more build and hence why it may seem to you he looks "fatter" in comparison to the others (pretty much like Sakuma or those Wind Agency dudes who clearly seem to have more muscle mass than the average person or the average D-agency spy)

Comic_Sans said:
Okay

That still doesn't change the fact that he's ugly

NemuriNezumi said:


this supposed "fact" is pretty much only a personal opinion

imo Gamou looks worse(?)

NemuriNezumi said:


As far as I know there is no english version, only a japanese and chinese one

rayeine said:
In Chinese. I'm not sure if there are English translations.

Moron said:




Thank you for answering my question! Will it be okay to share with me where I may be able to read the Chinese version as well?

Sad that Miyoshi had to die, But man even in his dyring moments he knew that Yuuki would come after him and marked the list with his blood. Props to him.

I'll say it again Yuuki is OP XD

I really liked what the German general said at the end, "Even though the man called Maki will remain buried without anyone knowing his identity, The Information he left behind will live on" . Spies are the true martyrs.

I must say the show has gotten really good in this last quarter.

Everyone is crying about Miyoshi and I don't even remember who he was...

Shuhan said:
I cant differentiate any of the spies in D agency, the same face and lack of characterization made it hard to feel anything for Maki's death.

yuliyana29 said:
@NemuriNezumi Thank you very much for all of the informations. By the way, the last post just hit me in the feels. The PS in the end is even worse. *sniff*

Fresh_Mint said:
Miyoshi's dead just like that huh? He died smiling. That's pretty amazing considering there was a steel beam piercing his chest.

Once again Yuuki proves he is best girl of the show. Simple execution and a quick reaction. He was probably aware of that paranoid general's intentions the entire time as well.

*claps*

yuliyana29 said:


Nope. Yuuki is.

-----
Honestly. I am very, very baffled to see all of the posts here say that Miyoshi is dead for real. I wonder if also, at least anyone actually thought of this other possibility. Here I ago: D-Agency motto is "Dont' die, don't kill." This motto is basically a law for the spies; they are bound/obligated to carry it out with any flaws. Thus said, I doubt that a spy who belongs to an agency with such motto and leader as Yuuki, will chose death as final. Wasn't it constantly repeated over the series that for a spy, the worst decision one can make is to kill or die.
If Miyoshi didn't look convincing enough that he is dead, the germans would still think that he is alive and they wouldnn't stop with what they have started, so of course he has to act dead and fool them to accomplish his mission perfectly, according to keikaku. He is a spy after all, being obvious/suspicious isn't his trait. I might be wrong, he may be really dead, but I don't want to jump to conclusions at some point, considering I've seen this show manged to troll the viewers quite good sometimes - Altough I haven't comment none about that here, still I've been observing while this series are in broadcast. So, I don't want to see people getting mad on this anime ends up trolling you if it turns out that Miyoshi isn't dead.
By the way, don't mourn over Miyoshi way to seriously because

Most likely, the preview for the final episode:

WOW I want to believe THIS

xEmptiness said:


Mainly only girls are crying lol. For obvious reasons.

Thank God they still haven't lost the direction.

I don't understand as to how Yuuki escaped from them in the first place. They didn't explain what the thing was in his hand that triggered the explosion.

ringo_juice said:
It was really sad for him to die.. Until the very end I was hoping for a twist to prevent his death ahh.
