I didn't care about the story, if they cracked the case or if anyone survived. I watched this because it was the best comedy I've seen helped by it being a sadistic mess of a show that tries to take itself seriously. Garunteed laugh every episode. Was a little sad that Natsuko died. That yandere queen should have won and gone on to terrorize more people next season. On a pure enjoyment level I give this an 8. On a technical level I give it a 4.

- Pristine condition chainsaw in the middle of the forest. LOL
- Natsuko dies. YAY
- Nobuaki dies. YAY, good riddance to an ultra wimpy MC who couldn't save anyone.
- Riona is the sole survivor. YAY

About as good as an ending as I could've hoped for. I thought Nobuaki was going to survive but I loved that he was useless right up to the very end. Wavering between 4/10 or 5/10 just for the enjoyment. Probably 4.

Those who gave it 1 haven't seen true shit-tier anime that puts you to sleep, like Glasslip

THAT WAS BATSHIT CRAZY, GORY, AND GOOD !!! Sad to see Riona kiss the dead Nobuaki @_@ She suicided and sank to the bottom of the lake along with Nobuaki. So the King's Game was really a virus inside their bodies, that makes sense and why bodies could just blow up like that. This was the complete ending and conclusion. No one survived as the King's Game was intended for this result which was a FANTASTIC revelation. The To be Continued in the end is apart of the conclusion. That The King's game begins with another group all over again. A SEASON 2 would not really be needed nor do I think it'd be as GREAT as this anime, telling about BOTH Nobuaki and his current/past game. I ENJOYED OUSAMA GAME SO MUCH !!! AMAZINGLY AWESOME ANIME !!!!!!! 10/10

Riona didn't suicide and sink in the ocean? That part in episode 1 was his ex from the first game. Riona chose to live hence a secound season. I wanted her to die so don't think I'd miss it if she did XD

Rewatch the last episode again. Riona clearly took Nobuaki's body with her, and walked into the ocean. The game continued because why the fuck not?

You know, I almost forgot about Glasslip. That show was bad, but Ousama Game is just garbage. The only thing I can think of thats dumber than this would be "Training with Hinako."

Ok re-watched it. It was the sinking to the bottom of the ocean thing that confused me. We don't see that. It was insinuated that she drowned but wasn't shown so maybe she did survive. Also, Nobuaki made her promise to survive. So I think she may have lived and that's why it's continuing or they'll do a prequel type sequel.

At long last I have finished this affront to humanity. I finished the last 5 episodes in a row. No person should be subject to such torture. The cia wouldn't even subject terrorists to this.

What a shit ending. I can't express with words how disappointed I am this is getting a 2nd season.

To all the people that gave it a good score (above 5) you are what's wrong with mal rating system and why aliens will never visit us.

It's called being a completionist. If you look at my list, you'll see I don't drop shows. No matter how horrible they are, I will suffer through them. I don't believe people are allowed to voice their opinions on something they didn't take the time to watch. I powered through it in one night to get it over with. The use of alcohol helped.

Finally the end. It was extremely bad with so many things without senses.

Fortunately, there was action, bad action, but action, so I succeed to finish it. After all the inconsistencies, it remains two main flaws: the characters and the pacing.

The characters are not really introduced and die so quickly that I can't feel involved in the story or their deaths. It's almost fun to watch them die...
And why did they made the two stories in one anime. The first episodes are so hard to understand, that even my brother who have read the manga was lost.

Good OP.

@AbhayDX It's a building in the middle of the woods. Makes sense to have a chainsaw, or two, or three. She was being kind by opting for the quicker option rather than say, an axe.

Alright.

So, remind me again how did they manage to get a chainsaw in middle of nowhere?

Oh, and now they're trying to make Natsuko look good. WHAT?!?!

This anime had so much potential to flourish, but nah. And, now everyone's dead (with Riona committing suicide by drowning herself with Nobouaki's body), then why the hell didn't King's Game stop?

According to timeline, there shouldn't be anymore survivors of Kings Game, why did it send an email for another Kings Game?

And, finally someone (Riona) tried to use their brain cells and actually tried to kill Natsuko.

And, now it comes down to King's Game vs School Days.


School days FTW!!!

There's a reason it too me so long to finish this anime. It is ridiculously bad.

Still don't get how the game can continue when everyone with the virus died. It would have made more sense if they had returned to the village where it all began but oh well, not everyone get what they want and at least its over (hopefully for good, even with the "to be continued" at the end).

Lol, Natsuko is still at it with her malevolent intentions...
It's almost sad to see how low she's fallen but then again, I guess the show really tried hard to make the viewers hate her.

Also, Natsuko with a chainsaw...lol. Good God, this show was a complete disaster. It's a prime example of a terrible hororr series in every direction. Natsuko's taunting is still very evident in this finale too and she stlll tries to kill. Natsuko's death is well deserved tbh.

2/10. It definitely deserves it imo. I noticed a "to be continued" for this finale..I hope that won't happen.


if you read the manga... oh boy..

I watched 'till the end because of Riona, she's the only reason why i didn't drop this damn series. So Nobuaki and his friends are in heaven even Natsuko after all those terrible things she has done, the author ain't know no shit about how heavens work, i tell you what.

Everyone died at the end so that means the virus should have not spreaded but the after credit scene there's a guy receving a text from the King, like what the heck ? and it's also says "to be continued"... pls kill me now

Just finished with ep 12. and reading up on the past and future of kings game I'm surprised that this has a to be continued. it must have a attracted an audience that likes and endless loop of a cluster fuck and its selling well. I have no idea why anyone would like a series with a non ending that goes on forever. I have no idea what the author was thinking when he made King's Game. >.<

THIS TRAIN-WRECK IS FINALLY OVER! It's been a horrible ride from the bland, non-memorable characters, the female high school students that are all busty because... anime, the virus that can somehow enter the internet because reasons and it killing everyone because...........................

Of course we also have Natsuko who I guess is supposed to be redeemed. Nope, still hate your guts bitch.

Then we have my favorite part where our 'saint' main character tells the tsundere to live. That's right, live Riona. It doesn't matter that you'll destroy humanity. It's obvious that you living is the correct choice.

Was there any point or theme in this anime? They were destined to die anyway and they seemed to be happier after death. Couldn't we have just skipped to the final minutes and it would have made no difference in the overall scheme of things. Was there a moral here? The only things I learned was that this anime sucked and that a horrible anime can bring people together by discussing how horrible it is.

After hanging on for so long I think Natsuko's way of thinking was not that bad after all. Everyone has their own way of salvation.

Only Ria,Chiemi,Yosuke and Kenta die with dignity. Everyone die like either screaming In pain or screaming of being afraid to die,trying to kill someone before getting kill or go psycho and eventually die. This series is way too dark and Its plot its shit.

If they don t bring back Naoya,Chiemi and Ria. I am not bother with this shit series anymore. This is like a worst version of another.

How They are gonna continue season 2 with Nobuaki and everyone dead.

I think I'm the only person in the world who really liked this anime. I'm a fan of horror, so seeing protagonists make stupid decisions while their friends make dumber ones and get slaughtered is nothing new to me. I even wrote a review. Read it if you dare ;). Looking forward to season two to see what terrors await the next class.

P.S.: I never laughed so hard when I saw Natsuko in heaven at the end. We all know she's getting pounded by the hell dolphins in Satan's a**hole for all the crap she's done. Good riddance. Haven't seen a more satisfying death since Makoto in School Days.

So, they all died, but the "virus" was transmitted anyway? How did that work?

Scariest part of the whole series was at the very last second of the last episode when they declared the series would be continued.....I may have nightmares.

They finally start doing something about Natsuko. This mess wouldn't have occured if you guys killed her a long time ago.

Poor Ryou trying to be strong and be a sacrifice, but in the end he's dead

Just like everyone said the chainsaw appeared out of nowhere. Natsuko found it in a flash. How convenient.

So, basically Natsuko is a yandere to Nobuaki. And so that's why she didn't kill Nobuaki back then.

So Natsuko doesn't have some kind of supernatural power at all... then what the hell is with her red eye and causing illusion?

Natsuko goes to heaven after what she did XD.

So the game continues. This might imply that Riona still alive, but the order given by the king sometimes is illogical in itself. So I'm gonna stop speculating things.

In the end the teacher doesn't even showed up.

Weird but I'm looking forward to the sequel XD.

The series too rushed in my opinion the promise was there but it was too short of series. If it had 24 it could have done it right but the 12 it was too much info stuffed in at once. I can at least give it a 6. it wasn't terrible but it wasn't good.

Well, that was pretty much what I expected, unintentional comedy and tiddies, I didn't particulary hate it tho, I will take "hilariously bad" over "boring bad" any day, and some of the girls weren't half bad, like Ria and Riona, - maybe Nami too - and I guess Natsuko (before she went "psycho"), would have liked to see them in a better setting, like a hentai or harem for sure, so overall not too bad of a watch.

Well, that was terrible. However, I was expecting Riona to be the one to get killed, instead of Nobuaki. So that came unexpectedly. Overall, they really messed up this adaptation, but I've definitely seen worse shows though.

Well that happened

I read the manga a few years ago and i swear i don't remember it being this bad, but at least it was a strangely entertaining bad.
"In the past few months since we met, I've shared many memories with Nagato. Though I've also shared memories with Haruhi, Asahina-san and Koizumi, I found that I've experienced more events with Nagato in particular. In fact, every situation seems to involve her. I might as well mention this, she's probably the only person to cause the bell within me to shake the most vigorously..." ~ Kyon, TMOSH

This is one of those animes that can be compared to a train wreck....,it's a bloody disaster but somehow you keep watching until the end only to sigh in blessed relief once it's over. This anime is terrible and I truly hope that the threat of another season is never actualised at any point in the future.
I am giving it a 1/10.
