This manga is about two students, one very smart, and the other with very good communication skills. Their mission is to earn a 100 trillion dollars to make a trillion dollar game. One thing I noticed after reading the first chapter is that the name for one of the two main characters, Gaku, is the same name that Inagaki wanted to use for Senku. The reason he didn’t use it, was that it sounded too academic or nerdy because Gaku means school in Japanese. Even though Senku is smart af, he isn’t the nerdy type and is more of the cool character type. But this ... time, Gaku is the awkward shy kid who’s very smart and uses glasses. So it fits perfectly for him because he isn’t meant to be the cool character type. That role goes to his friend, Haru, who is probably the most confident liar you’ll ever see. If you’re starting to miss Dr. STONE, Trillion game would be a perfect alternative because not only is it written by the same author, it sort of gives me Dr. STONE vibes.

The sheer amount of absurdity, impossible problems being solved realistically, the tropey characters, and it’s just… fun. It makes boring things like coding and entrepreneurship fun just like Dr. STONE made science fun.

I'm sorry but I'm not a fan of Ikegami sensei's art, therefore, a 5/10
The characters and story are fantastic, 10/10 for both
Its very enjoyable 10/10
overall: 9/10
