Preliminary (70/? chp)
I don't usually write reviews but I guess this series deserve one, as the rest are kinda old ones. This is a spoiler free review:

Story:
The story is kind of generic at start, especially the first five chapters, but oh boy, does it take a big turn. The story develops in one of the best stories I have ever seen/read.
It nails each and everything it uses, the romance, the battle of wits, the twists, the characters, the art.
10/10

Art:
Nothing much to say for art but it is fantastic. It feels dark and amazing.
9/10

It feels like a crime for this to have such an overwhelmingly positive feedback on this site. I'll keep it simple, so you don't have to waste even a fraction of your time as i did.

This is the dumbest, most wannabe cool and edgy, disgusting piece of media not only in all of the death game nieche, but i'd say in all of manga. I don't measure words by saying it, it just throws around a shit ton of very delicate or gruesome topics very poorly dealt with every single chapter and of course, PLOT TWISTS. This series just lives by its plot twists, and ...

Okay so, this is my first review and i'm not really familiar with English language, but oh well i'll try my best

First, The Story
Rating : 9
Why did i give it 9 and not 10? well here is my reason, The story is actually very interesting about how a group of friend suddenly wake up in a room and told by the game master that one of them have a huge debt but the game master say that if they play the "Tomodachi game (friend game)" the debt will be gone. Well technically it like testing their friendship and of course they agree and play ...

Tomodachi Game truly is a masterpiece

Story 10/10
The first 5 chapters start to be a bit boring for some readers but you can always see how there are some scenes of the mc having an other site which makes it really interesting and exciting to read. Later on, one of the biggest plot twists follows and it goes on with insanely good arcs and the best plot twists which are unpredictable and no one could imagine.

Art 10/10
I cant really say much about this, but the art is perfect too. The ways some characters are drawn in certain situation makes it so much more exciting to read. ...

TL;DR – Has a really generic start (first ~5 chapters), but the narrative quickly develops into a very compelling manga, complete with lovable characters and onion levels of layers built upon each development.


-- Story --

(Mild plot structure spoilers.)

First 5 chapters set up a really basic "friends get kidnapped and have to play through games designed to test their friendship" scenario. The scope of the story opens up a lot more in chapter 6, and this is when the manga starts showcasing its strengths.

Bulk of the manga involves watching the characters challenge these "Tomodachi Games". The games are very well thought out, and seeing the characters' ...

I am not exaggerating or anything, but I give this manga a 10 rating.
This is beyond a masterpiece. Even after watching hundreds of animes, mangas, and venturing all types of genres, I am honestly proclaiming that this is the greatest one. Perhaps because I love the psychological genre most thats why I am a bit biased.

The story is a bit simple at first and as the story progresses, you'll be indulged with crazy, insane, overflowing, irrational, mindblowing concepts. THIS IS EXTREMELY INSANE AND HIGHLY ADDICTIVE.

The art is great, the details are fine, especially the expressions.

The characters-- THE CHARACTERS!!! THEY ARE THE BEST!!! They are ...

The wonderful plot and the way it is told are amazing. I loved this manga for its many aspects and how it introduced many aspects of our lives and how the writer truly plays with our minds. It is one of the best manga I have read.

Yuichi's way of thinking is very beautiful

There are some characters that I did not accept from the writer, such as Kokurugi, but we do not know what the future brings us. They may be of greater benefit than before - I am currently in Chapter 69, so I do not want to judge them until this arc or the ...

2/10. A friend recommend this to me, so I feel like an @$$hole for hating it.

Tomodachi Game starts off suspiciously similar to Liar Game (2005), which is vastly superior in every respect except art. The first game is basically a 1:1 rip off of the minority rule game from Liar Game. I'm actually shocked at how blatant they were about it. Influence is one thing, but this is teetering on the edge of plagiarism.

There are differences in the execution though. Liar Game solves its games mathematically. Tomodachi Game solves them through petty high school drama. Liar Game uses human psychology far more scientifically. ...

I started using this site recently, but I've been keeping my own manga list for a long time now for around a couple of years and when I was putting my scores in I was shocked to see this piece of dogshit of a manga have a rating of 8

This series... How to put it lightly, is the most trash, edgy, and braindead you can imagine a story like this. We are supposed to believe this MC is smart but the way they do this is just by dumbing down every single other fucking character to the point of reading the other characters do things ...

Story: 9/10

How the manga moves from arc to arc is almost seamless. The story simply just flows nicely and it makes you want to keep reading. The plot is tense enough to make you want to know more and even try to figure out the tricks yourself. Each strategy that Yuuichi employs seems plausible, yet the utter nonchalance of his sometimes horrible actions give you a small sense of horror. In each arc there is a clear goal, a climax, and a very satisfying resolution. However as I read this, it seems that Yuuichi will always win which lessens the effect of the story, ...

Tomodachi Game is the absolute power ceiling of psychological game manga while upholding the spirit of a death game. While a debt game may sound low-stakes initially, Tomoge's thematic execution and psychological warfare make it far more compelling than any game with deaths in it.

I have read and watched so many death game related series that when "death" is used as the baseline for "high-stakes", I roll my eyes at it - as I've already been numbed to it ad nauseam. Furthermore, this actually comes at a cost for the cast of characters themselves. They're not people who you should care for, they're usually ...

Tomodachi Game as the title implies is a "Friend Game", a story about friendships, struggle, will and worth all wrapped up in a big mystery.

Story: 7

Tomodachi game isn't anything super unique in its concept. It follows a group of friends as they go through a series of games carried out by a powerful, and secret organization. Each one of them harbors an insurmountable debt and they use whatever means to get that lowered or erased. This manga shines with its games. Every game is unique and well thought out, with a simple but made complicated formula. Their task is to complete each game and move ...

Before i write this review I want to say by no means is this manga a bad one, however it is quite far from being good. My score of a 7 is mostly because I love death game manga, especially ones with a morally grey main character. Now on to the review.. full of SPOILERS btw. this is gna be short its 2am


Chapters 10-50 are essentially follow the same repeating cycle: Enter dangerous game, back is against the wall, Yuuichi pulls miraculous strategy out of his ass to complete the game and make everyone else look stupid. This is obviously amusing, especially some of Yuuichi's ...

i love this manga! i originally saw this from its anime, and i'm glad i decided to read the manga.

the plot is somewhat messy and confusing, but it's still enjoyable to me! one of the few problems i had was the amount of plot twists?? also, there was a lot of fanservice, which is something i'm personally not too interested in (some of the girls had MASSIVE, AND I MEAN MASSIVE boobs. how do their backs not hurt? or do they? they're also gravity-defying, which is kinda impressive if you ask me).

yuuichi katagiri (the main character) is probably the best part of this manga for ...

Tomodachi Game is manga written by Yamaguchi Mikoto who is also the author of dead tube. Another survival game manga. Tomodachi Game feels like the author's revenge after dead tube flopping with low ratings. But it is a pleasant revenge.

Tomodachi Game is about a group of friends finding themselves in a game that will test their friendship. Called Squid game ow I am sorry I meant Tomodachi game.

Tomodachi game is a psychology based game. There is no death penalty in any of the games. Except for one game in Adult Tomodachi game which is a much harder version of Tomodachi Game our characters are playing ...

This will be my first proper review of a manga.

Story: 8/10
Our protagonist gets sucked into a game meant to solve debt problems. The thing is he isn't the one who got them into the game. So it has to be one of his friends. The longer the game lasts, the more the MC realizes that he wants to destroy the game itself.
Art: 10/10
The art is very good. It may be a monthly so you'd usually expect good art, but I can't deny the fact that Tomodachi Game's art style is very visually appealing.
Character: 8/10
It's like an 8 or a 9, I'd go with an ...

If you like characters that manipulate everything and mangas that has a lot of plot twists. Than this manga would be best for you.

If you like chacters that no brain and can't do anything and not smart than this manga might not be for you.

This is a whole interesting experience for everyone who reads becouse even the concept looks like it has been made a lot of times. The main character changes everything. I don't know mangaka is using a technique that makes MC that smart or not (idk even there is a thing like that) MC is really smart that you can't even imagine.

This manga is criminally underrated - the games are all supremely entertaining and the characters are amazing; the series of twists and turns that happen in each game alone are awesome and keep you hooked. The main cast (with the exception of she who shall not be named for spoiler reasons) is great and are all perfectly round characters with their own stories, goals, and personalities. The art is average, it's certainly not bad, it's not over the top amazing, its simply good. Where the manga mainly loses points is in story, because some of the plot twists ...
