| Judging by everyone’s comments I’m probably gonna go read the manga from the beginning. As an anime only. It was entertaining. |

| Well I don't know about this. It surely turned out better than I'd expected but the ending is so mehhh.. I feel really ambivalent about this one. |

But if you read manga Well I don't know about this. It surely turned out better than I'd expected but the ending is so mehhh.. I feel really ambivalent about this one. I actually love characters like those. In my opinion the show peaked at episode 6 but then deteriorated in last few episodes again. And the last episode felt overly rushed. upd. If anything, I felt like Yuichi wasn't psychotic enough when |

| I was entertained by this one... but it disappointed me as much as Multiverse of Madness. It would have been predictable, but the MC getting them all in the game to break their friendship because he learned how much of a liar/scumbags his friends were would have been a more interesting watch. However, instead of our Genius-boi going full Light Yagami, he goes Shield Hero... which was a serious let-down. He's supposed to be some bada$$ serial killer yet he saved the basketball team's friendship instead of breaking the blonde kid's finger... then he didn't get to cut off that rapey, wunnabe gangster's fingers? What's the point of being an anti-hero if you don't commit? They turned my guy into a sheep in wolf's clothing... The mystery behind the show was its most gripping part, but they spoiled it with a weak reveal mid-through... and I'm not even going to rant about the show leaving us hanging with the long-haired girl and her dad being professional con-men, but the way things are going they'll probably redeem her character too. Great concept that should have went harder. A 6 out of 10 :(. |
| Yuichi is a great MC, poor him to lose his 3 nails and injured his hand so badly... Love this anime just to see Yuichi. It's start very slow, but it is really interesting after the first game. Oh no, Yuichi won't participate on the next game? That would be a little boring maybe ... |
 |
| I liked the show, characters were great and had good motives. Felt that it got a bit absurd at points but nothing immersion breaking. I'm excited for more, hoping for season 2. 9/10! |
 |
| oh my god removed the fingernail, thank god they tone it down. i remember that scene in Higurashi, much worse and traumatized. turns out it was this special game was fake, and we don't even know what the reason behind him doing that right? ended up with cliffhanger, Game no 4 "Trial of Friendship" but this time without Yuuichi? hopefully Season 2 coming next year? Overall Solid First Season 7/10 from me. |
 |
| Overall a far cry compared to something like Kaiji but still had its moment which I somewhat enjoyed (Yuuichi appearing like a madman). |
 |
| What a weak episode to end the show. They should've just ended it with third game. Manga is way better no doubt. But since we're talking about this season, the last episode did hurt the overall enjoyment. |
 |
| Oh man I wished I was watching this during the season, this show was actually a banger. So glad I took my friend's recommendation on this. 8/10 |

| As a fan of the manga I thought this adaptation was actually pretty solid overall. The only proper issues are the fact that they only covered the worst arcs of the manga as it was only one cour, and the fact that they ended it with a cliff hanger but no season 2 announcement. Still a solid 8/10 and my anime of the year so far. |
| The cliffhanger ending was kind of tasteless: 1.No fingers were cut. 2.Kokorogi failed. 3.Was Shiho's father behind the "special" Tomodachi Game held by Kuroki. 4.No real backstory for our MC. I would appreciate a 2nd season. |
 |
| I can't believe Kokorogi role still related to 'that' purpose. I'm still waiting for her to shine more. But guess its for later, on the next game, i dunno. Then lol ofc there's a scissor-paper-rock game onto the tomodachi game. Nice! But still its a surprise that the gang was just impersonating. What's the deal with Shiho and her father? Wonder if she's actually trying to beat the tomodachi game management but using the way that actually ends up hurt all the surrounding, such as Tenji case and now Shibe, then she's even adding more debt onto the field. Once again, i dunno the detail much about that. Not even the identity of MC has been reveal completely, then with that kind of huge cliffhanger. Teasing hard or just fuck yourself to read the manga, huh? Sigh. To be honest, this have its nice moments, leading toward great because of entertainment aspect is so damn right the way. However, the direction still lacking to convey the best way and the 12-episode only is not right for this anime to end, especially since there's no news following up what's next. I just hate that type of production so i simply judge this anime lower than it should, unfortunately thanks from those issue. 7/10 for now. See you later on the next installment, if any... |

| welp this is it. Overall I think it's fair to say this show was a dumpster fire, like seriously one of the messiest things I've seen in a while. But at least I was entertained thanks to its so bad it's good soap opera moments and the third game was actually really fun to watch. But none of those things come even close enough to redeeming it (Generous) 4/10, op is kind of a banger |

| Hm, particularly not very fan of this episode; the worst episode in my opinion. They went gorish for the sake of impactful scenes but development wise it was kinda pointless (as if it were a filler). Fanservice episode for those into torture and negative energy -_-" Ah! We had a bit of 'ecchi' fanservice if I can call it like that, but oh God, what a bad timing, really. Well, in general a solid good psychological anime. Not a very fan of plot twist over plot twist every time though, it gets kinda of frustating and tiring over the time. As this last episode ended, it´s open for more. Hm, I just hope they don´t drag this series too much. 7/10 |

| Why it ends in a cliffhanger |
 |
| Wow! That ending left a huge hole for more seasons, I'm excited for what's to come. Anyway, Yuuichi is being more loyal than I believed he would be and I think the anime escalated very quickly... things seem to be too easy for the MC, as if he were a prodigy or something, I confess that I don't like that much though BUT I think his plans are creative so I really enjoyed this S1. |
| Bruh this anime need a 2nd Season, ending was 3.2/10 while the whole anime was a 7.8/10. If though it was a good anime for some fans. I think that it was a interesting anime ngl, I thought in my mind that I was gonna drop out somewhere in the first 4 episodes but the puzzles, clues, and strategies hyped up my tenisons on this anime, Yuuichi has an higher IQ than his rest of his friends, even though he is the basically the Einstein mastermind of the game. But still I don't know what will happen next for Yuuichi after he got unconscious from the bleeding, I still doubt that I hope there will be a 2nd Season soon and I also hope that the next season will have a ending that is much more satisfied for the audience, it depends what scenes and scripts that will continue the anime for the ending for now. |

| unfortunately the season has gone from more to less and on top of that we are left wanting a second season. kekeke 6/10 |
| Damn it was a quite nice anime at least and the frickin ending like bro wat. Rlly need for a 2nd season like this cause that cliffhanger is pretty evil in my liking. |
 |
| I guess I'm little too late! I really hope that I finished this last year... But I guess I'm continuing on manga now. |
