YUICHI IS COLD AF PSYCHO WHAT A SIGMA

This gotta be the cringest show I've ever seen.
But I'll make a proper review anyways.
Obviously, this review will contain a lot of spoilers.

1: No Core Story The story is so weak even the writer himself doesn't know what to do with the series or what he wants the series to be. It's like he's experimenting everything on a production unit on the go.

As a result, every 3 episodes it's like a completely different anime, every 3 episodes protagonists are completely different persons. This series has to be the definition of "inconsistent story".

At first the series are about "finding the imposter among 5 friends"

Then the series are about "sadistic maniac antagonist enjoying destroying the friendship"

Then it's about "the psychopath that pulled us into this nosense game is my best friend now because he has his reasons, now we gonna play hunger games"

Then it's kaneki ken act for no reason, out of no where protagonist endures torture for literally no reason

Let's not forget the "game is deep state" arc

So you expect to watch: "5 friends find themselves playing a game that they need to test their friendship", then you find yourself watching "2 guys fighting deep state assisted, twisted game like squid game and also hunting for their 3rd friend"

2: Various Reasons Why It's Trash

Other parts that i really don't want to waste time with detailed explanation are:

• Weak girl characters that are ready to worship MC
• Everyone is doing edgy smug faces altough nothing significant happening, cringe'd hard
• the games / exams were very ridiculous. This had to be the strongest weapon of the series yet they were poorly designed
• Predictable things happen then you have to watch 10 mins long "W-WWHAT! This guy is genius, dangerous, blabla" act after each move.

The things i found ridiculous:

• MCs successfully complete the games, as a result they're rewarded with more debts
• The observers / moderators / employees of tomodachi game are racing each other over player groups, claiming their success altough they have nothing to do with players.
• The players are fully exposed to viewers, then released back to outside world. The game is also supposedly super secret yet hungry for more viewers

3: Conclusion & Why It Failed Did i enjoy it? No. My expectations were already low. But, for a series that proposes "a game that minds are fighting", I at least expected to be surpised once. Instead i'm annoyed with cringe cocky characters.

I don't know if this anime adapdation failed to cover the plot of the manga or the light novel if it exist, i don't know if the anime adaptation tried to cover too many chapters at a very short period of time (this is probably what happend).

It's just i don't care, i'm rating the anime, not the works it's based on, and this is trash.

The series tried to use unique and successful aspects of popular series such as danganronpa, squid game, classroom of the elite, and even tokyo ghoul. But collecting all of them into one single series with a very poor implementation obviously resulted with a very low quality full of cliche and cringe trash.``````````````````
