Yuichi is not a smart person. he is normal Because of that, what he did was not difficult and uncomplicated. He never said he was a genius and in the manga. He admitted that he was more stupid than Tenji.

The show treats him as such and it seems the wider audience agrees he's some kind of sadistic mastermind, but he's the smartest person in the room when the rest of the cast has two brain cells between them.

I'd agree with you if everyone else around him didn't treat him like he's brilliant. It's like they've never met anyone that uses simple logic.

yes i agree with you They treat Yuichi like Yuichi is a very smart person and try to force Yuichi into something strange when he is just a normal person with evil disposition.

I'm just hoping for a surprise season 2 or something because there's no way they can finish up the whole anime in one clean swoop with 3 episodes left, especially where episode 9 left off.

Yuichi is definitely in my top 3 favorites for anime MC's in general. The plans he makes are hands down amazing and super surprising. I can usually predict things in animes but the way he thinks is just crazy!

I love this anime so much ♡

Another great episode! Yuuichi-kun is really the worst. Now he's gonna destroy the relationship of team K.

I've been wondering what is that like string or strap on Hyakutaro-kun's chest? Anyone know?

lol what do you mean by the rest of cast only have 2 brain cells? Dude needed to push the girl off the cliff to distract the others. Plus you are being too precocious in your assumptions, they are not fighting over the girl right in the end, it was just a forced cliffhanger, there's more than that.
But i agree with you in this part, the way the admins keep saying he is a monster and all it's really annoying (even in the manga).

lol this show is so ridiculous

all according to the plan everyone thinking Yuichi is the biggest 4D chess player reminds me of Talentless Nana in the same way it's not that hes super smart is just everyone else is really fucking dumb

causing a fallout in their group would've been the most obvious thing to do, would've liked to see how this would've worked if he didn't have a token girl to "charm" the other team because that's the best way to break a group of boys right tomodachi pls lol

sure im lil surprised by how shitty he can be at times

Talking up his big plan the whole time when he had absolutely nothing if the opponents did blab like idiots and give him this completely unlikely setup. He's just lucky pushing his teammate off a cliff apparently doesn't break the violence rules. You know, if you really wanted to convince me that Yuuichi is a crazy monster how about letting Tenji die? No more chance of pushing the button, guaranteed to out wait the other guy, it's a great plan for such a "monster".

Maybe the anime cut some stuff, but it's only not okay to hurt other team, you're free to use violence on your team member. So there's no luck in that aspect.

What unlikely setup? It was already explained that he put maximum effort to behave like he wants to get a revenge on Tenji and wasn't doing anything suspicious for days so it's not surprising that they became more lax around him.

People just have different taste.
I also like Tomodachi Game.
It's my favourite manga alas this anime adaptation definitely could have been better.It's just decent or average in my opinion.Animation is a big minus and overall atmosphere lacks a bit.Other than that they are making good progress.
Sorry if I sound like a manga elitist I shared my opinion afterall.

That make sense lol. The first half of your review is based on how their friendship seems superficial when that's exactly what is supposed to seem, Yuuichi himself said "We thought we were friends but we are just strangers to eachother". We were never suppose to be invested in their friendship in first place lol. "uM, tHe nAMe oF tHe ShoW hAs tHe WoRD "tOmoDaCHi" sO thEy WerE suPpoSeD tO be fRIenDs bUt tHeY doN't sEem To bE fRienDs aT aLl" that's a big lolz for sure.
Don't wanna argue or anything, i just found funny how some reviews complain about how they don't seem to have a good friendship when that's exactly what is supposed to look.

About the admins needing to stfu, i agree with you

I definitely find it surprising. They're actively competing with huge stakes. How stupid do you have to be to trust the enemy? And was he really not suspicious when he was making crazy faces and blatantly insulting them? We conveniently skip over the part where he's supposedly being clever and convincing. But I more meant having the right personalities in two of them so he could ensnare both at once with one girl. Having them be the ones left to guard. Having the basketball team members be slow enough they couldn't catch either before the cliff. Having the girl not run further from the edge. Stuff like that.

That's fair. Wanted to go back to check the rules but didn't have the episode handy.

I dunno. The picture I get of Tenji between his pathetic game two inner monologue and now superhuman determination is... well, inconsistently written, but let's be generous and call it mentally unstable. Seems hard to use, but mainly I really want Yuuichi to actually do something messed up since the mods keep insisting. The pretty boy team K guy even clarified the cliff wasn't dangerously high.

This show keeps getting more and more amusing, really sad it didn't get 24 episode to adapt. As it stands, not sure I'll be able to wait for a 2nd season before hitting the manga.

Looking forward to seeing the other relationships crumble.Not surprising this is Yuuichi's speciality, giving he is an uncaring asshole.

this. Yuuichi isn't a force to be reckoned with because he's a genius. it's because he's not afraid to go to any length to achieve his goal. it's his madness that the other characters don't have. and that makes him scary.

this is genius prince all over again. the mc makes "amazing" plans then mostly rely on luck and his opponents being just stupid enough. then the "amazing" plan succeeds through sheer plot convenience. this is made to impress little kids that have never been in a social situation of any complexity so they think the mc is big brain while in reality the "amazing plans" hold on far fetched assumptions and can fail at any given moment

This.

Look at his plan.

It relies on

-only two opponents following them (why? who knows)
-those two following them
-those two being slow enough not to catch any of the two runaways
-them being close enough to catch the girl

and this is only to give food to Tenji

For the whole plan to succeed it needs
-the K team no accepting him into the team (if they do they can beat him up)
-them not understanding he only wants to divide them

The plan was not portrayed as a "big brain movement" at all lol. The plan would still play out even if the girl had fallen off the cliff, as the those two chasing them would try to help the girl after her fall off anyway. There's nothing "genius" on this, it just showed how the dude went far to take food to the other.

-those two following them
-those two being slow enough not to catch any of the two runaways

With all of the info laid bare, srsly you can't see it coming m8?
Clearly group K is proceeding the most simple & efficient strat as they have number advantage.
Srsly you can't see their team's structure? Even with the flashback talk of theirs?
Without a flashback, any1 with a brain can clearly tell they have 2 duos for 2 shifts to watch over 2 member in group C. It's time & energy efficent.
Obviously, 2 shifts mean 2 ppl on constant guard while other 2 can rest or bring food to their hider without being tailed.
---
For the chase, ever heard of "head start"? I can heavily assume you don't get it either, since you nit pick on the stunt Yuuichi pulled.
What's his specialties? Manipulation and preying on the weak. Spending 2 days to find out his targets, purposely acting with an intention to ditch Tenji and spread false info to make the opponents let their guard down and find a suitable timing for the run.
You think having to suddenly chase ppl with a gap start very early in the morning in a HUGE FOREST that easy?
(There are scenes as proof, feel free to nit pick or start a debate)
The stunt ended up happen for a reason, calculation wise. It is safer to stop 2 athletic chasers or at least SLOW them down to ditch them.
Abruptly startling your chasers is a good strat, psychology wise. All he needed are few seconds to disappear in a big & empty forest.
Don't you tell me it's not feasible and logical, if it's not, say, why the hell street robberies constantly happen on the street and many can get away with that, LUL.
In a nutshell:
- The 2 chasers weren't slow, just no mentally prepared, handicapped start.
- Realistically speaking, yep, the stunt is too perfectly timing so they managed to grab the girl. But ain't fictional things always do this?
- Remember, he just wanted to SLOW them down, no matter what, so I'm pretty sure he didn't really care what would happen to Maria after pushing her and the fact that the escaping route is already planned and scouted beforehand, mark my word.
- Furthermore, humans tend to grab things within their reach and vision if sudden abnormal trajectory happen (like st dropping) and the 2 were even CHASING them. Not only you but I can see few ppl didn't manage to understand that. I'm not even surprised if Hyakutarou made a flying just to take a grip of Maria behind the scene.
- Let's say if not, the 2 couldn't manage to snatch Maria in time. Back to square one, the startling thing, if they couldn't actively react, they will respond passively by being shocked, scared, etc. I'm pretty sure even adults would hestitate here with a cold blooded doing in front of their eyes. Should I break it down further here, psychology wise, nope, I don't think so.

and this is only to give food to Tenji

So the preparation phase is over, and also Tenji managed to not push the give-up button and Yuuichi deemed that he could trust Tenji again, would you leave your friend starved to death? It's a whole 7 days with no food for Tenji and 4 days without water.
He MUST find a way to give Tenji F&B, otherwise everything is POINTLESS.

I'm kinda awed here... ngl.
Did you speedrun the episode or you somehow miss the flashback talk with Maria in Day 1?
It's clearly a feign.
Even if the K team sh let him in, it did show that he had extra plans for it, didn't it?
In a liar game, every1 with a brain will be wary of your opponent, they will come up with hypotheses and counter-measurements for each scenarios but you never know exactly what your opponents would do.
Rn K team only knew that he pretended to join them (and cheap provocation afterward) but I don't think they knew exactly the fact that Yuuichi was trying to divide and break their solid relationships. We, the audiences, saw the scenes, K team's members, didn't.
Ofc, they have s1 that their admin called "a genius" (Feign plan failed for a reason), they might already sus that Yuuichi might break their relationship and yeah, already had counter play but it's all our assumptions. Idk why you came up with the fact that Yuuichi's plan can only work if K team wasn't aware of it with so little information, logically speaking.
---
P.S: Nothing personal here. I saw ppl who didn't get the psychological aspects of the stunt in this episode so I randomly quoted you. If you are offended sh, I'm truly sorry for that.

I'm curious about one thing, if yuichi switched sides and then used violence on maria, would he technically win for his group C? All he would lose would be the average of losing team's debt, so it's not that terrible. That's just another reason to not let someone in typically.

About admins presenting yuichi as a genius. No, i think they mostly praise him for how immoral he is, not how smart.

Can any1 show me translated chart of group K relations from the ending of this episode? It wasn't translated in the episode i watched, wonder if any1 has that.

Finally someone who noticed this. Yes, you are pretty much right, Yuuichi was pretty close to Maria at the moment he asked to switch so if they had accepted Yuuichi would've already won.

Here's a translation of Yuuichi's personality analysis (i got it from reddit)

Kadokura Juzo

* team leader
* emotional anchor
* always thinks of his friends
* self-sacrificing type
* strong sense of responsibility

Onigawara Hyakutaro

* direct
* courteous
* straight-laced, weak to women
* nicest out of everyone
* idiot

Shinomiya Kei

* youngest
* small stature, lowest physical abilities of the group
* cheeky
* in charge of contacting the captain
* the debt holder?

Niwa Banri

* quiet
* plain
* lacks presence
* acts cautiously
* manga otaku?

Hashiratani Chisato

* calm
* discreet
* acts like a womanizer but is actually distrusting of women
* jack of all trades, master of none
* most likely pessimistic

I'm curious about one thing, if yuichi switched sides and then used violence on maria, would he technically win for his group C? All he would lose would be the average of losing team's debt, so it's not that terrible. That's just another reason to not let someone in typically.

About admins presenting yuichi as a genius. No, i think they mostly praise him for how immoral he is, not how smart.

Can any1 show me translated chart of group K relations from the ending of this episode? It wasn't translated in the episode i watched, wonder if any1 has that.

Gj bro.
It's a legit strat, big drawback though. That's why Yuuichi proceed it as the decoy plan.
Assume K team was stupid enough and let Yuuichi switch, he would have used violence on Maria immediately and it should have been an auto win for C team.
In fact, it stayed as a decoy for reasons:
- K team wasn't that naive, they even required both of them to switch simultaneously (Instant loss for C team).
- Also, as showing in the flashback, you can see Yuuichi anticipated that the switch wouldn't succeed and in fact, he even didn't want to resolve to that strat. (You can see his hypotheses, if he could switch, he would have prefered finding and leaking the hider's location instead). Why?
- Technically, the strat itself is fast, auto win but it's practically dumb and a bad course of actions. Win the game by that, you gain small amount of winning bonuses (3rd game bonus x4, since there are only 4 members in C team after the switch, I'm only assuming here) while bringing your team back big additional debts (1/3 of K team's current debts after their 2nd game = K team X2 debt because of violence against opposing team and divided by 6 members, this is for sure). Imo it can be easily considered a big loss, literally.
To the end of the day, the decoy plan is just a cheap provocation to smoke some info out of K team. You are smart so I think you get me here.
And gj again, Yuuichi is not a genius, s1 in K team is. He's just sly, immoral and willing to do anything to reach his goal. He knows his hand and how to deal with it too well.
For the trans abt K team, s1 already made it so I don't repeat it here.
Thank you for the job, my homie Thomas_york.

I'm not even talking about the stupid cliff stunt. the entire time the mc is like "oh, yes, I know it all, I understand it all, I've put seeds of doubt into the opposite team, I've put some of the seed of deez nuts into viewers' eyes, everything is in the bag" and then the frame accents his sigma male grin -- and the next thing everything goes according to some pulled out of the author's ass plan that in most cases wouldn't have worked but it works regardless because there is no plot if this shitpiss plan doesn't work
lol it's funny that you keep saying that is pull ass but don't even tell exactly the moments lol, "uM iT's pLoT cOnVEniencE" but don't even point out where.
it's everywhere, my dude. it's everywhere
Am I a good person? No. But do I try to be better every single day? Also no

Nice, thank you.
I'm actually surprised that yuichi didn't smoke out the actual leader as the small guy. Maybe it's just from viewer's viewpoint, cause that's basically the question viewer was given to solve at the start of this arc. They hinted it very obviously in every single episode, even opening i guess, or it could be a nasty bait. This info may not be too important to the protagonist tho.

TO be fair, the show is full of deus ex machina ass pull. I am enjoying it but it is not fantastic scripting or anything.
