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 in the current arc of the manga.Only penalty in the game is large amounts of debt and your friends.
The games and their rules are centered upon this fact. There are two ways to clear most of the games. Someone clears the game with much more money than others or all of them clear the game but get a lesser amount of money.
If someone's friendship isn't real that person will betray his friends. If their friendship is real they are gonna clear it together.
Tomodachi Game starts very bad for our
main characters. Because our characters discover there is a traitor among them. And their friendship was only a thing because they wanted cover their dirty lives.They were given those roles because that is what is normal for the society. Each and everyone of them had a dirty past and secrets they wanted not to be exposed that is why they had to look normal to other people.
And these games are designed in a way that will expose their true selves and show who they really are.
It is one of the most unique ways i've seen a survival game being handled.
Because most of the survival game series focus on shock created by who is gonna die and who is gonna live.
But in Tomodachi Game. That shock and thrill is created by a characters true self. Who is the traitor and in what way these characters are gonna mentally destroy each other?
Tomodachi Game is a plot twist heavy story. There are so many plot twists that it is so fucking ridiculous in a satisfying way. Tomodachi Game tried to be so over the top and edgy that it is so entertaining. The evil smile the characters do when they are sus. Someone getting sexually assaulted every 5 chapters. These make Tomodachi Game a very explicitly edgy story. Some of you may feel uncomfortable with. It litteraly feels like a story made by 14 who has a gigabrain. It is so edgy in a smart fucking way that it makes it the most fun survival game anime.
The Hardest thing to talk about Tomodachi Game is it's characters because everything about them is a spoiler. They are all living plot twists. But who we can talk about is our main character.
Katagiri Yuuichi
He is a normal very poor highschool student. Or is he? He is actually evil son of a bitch. He is op as fuck. He is one of the highlights of the show. A complete gigachad who always wins with his mind games. The most shocking plot twists usually revolve around him. Does he look like he is losing? oh,he probably has a plan.
Basically he is yagami light but instead of being an alpha male he is a sigma male. He is the type of guy who knows what sex is but he won't tell you. He probably fucked your mom and you don't know about it.
My favorite characters in the manga are the administrator women because they are so fucking hot. Especially Maria.
The art of Tomodachi Game is also great. The art is made by satou yuki who also helps with the major parts of the story. The facial expressions are great and they are a big part of the enjoyment.
The score i will give Tomodachi Game is a 9/10.
It is a fun read that may count as a guilty pleasure because how edgy and hilarious it is. But I think it is an greatly enjoyable read.
