Why exactly? To prove a point? So stupid.

To be honest, this idea of having a character so smart who does this things just proves the show is not clever. The pain, suffering and other occurrences are in your face just for the sake of it (I’m ok with other shows that have blood or violence btw, so it’s not the problem).

It makes my eyes roll back into my skull.

Also, I haven’t read the manga, but unless the anime is completely different from it, I don’t see how the manga could be any better, because the only aspect that I’ve heard that claims to be good in there are the “facial expressions“, which could be one the most stupidest and non interesting things imaginable.

I wish I enjoyed it as much as some people in this post do :(

A 3/10 for me.

I’m a nobody so for the “Tomodachi game” fans, don’t worry or get annoyed by a random like me, just enjoy the fucking show :)
I don't want to judge you but I guess you have terrible taste. Like SxF 9? For what? Tomodachi game was better than that


Not everyone has the same taste.

It's been a while since I've seen a show that genuinely had me on the edge of my seat every week, and Tomodachi Game did just that. Almost every week had a twist, and that made it one of the surprise shows of the season.

For the final episode we had some pretty intense stuff, and even if they didn't show it directly, I still had flinched a bit with some of the pain inflicted during the "games." We also got to see Yuichi really off the rails today, though I have to wonder if he's not just dipping back into his "old" personality instead of going crazy. It always amazes me how he manages to switch things up in every game.

Overall, this show is probably my AOTS (of the shows I've watched). That's not to say it didn't have it's own issues of course. There were some obvious pacing issues with things going too fast or too slow at times, and I'm sure the art/animation could have been better. However, this was a really great show, and I'm hoping we get a second season in the near future. 8.5/10

What the hell is this ending?

No Game No Life also had that Rock-Paper-Scissor game but it did way better.



Overall, this Anime is a bad adaption, just read the Manga if you got hooked.

Never understand how No Game No Life did it better. Both are just straight bullshit.

TL:DR -> My opinion shouldn’t be yours, it’s good that we don’t agree on everything. It would be boring.

To be honest, I’ve got way worse ratings XD

Basically, for me at least, SxF has really good characters, comedy and I think it achieves a nice feeling for a comfort show.
A 9 is basically me saying that I enjoy a lot the op and ed, the pacing for an anime-only guy like me (I’ve seen complaints from the people who read the manga about it) and a lot of the choices for themes in every episode.

For example, any character from Tomodachi Game is not interesting to me, maybe Tenji is the exception. Also, they don’t have nothing new to them: The way-to-smart guy, the shy girl with big boobs who is extremely annoying, the rich guy, the girl that everyone wants to fuck and Tenji :).

The pacing is bad at least, I cannot be the only guy surprised to see that the second game was so long, short explanation of characters (it’s a pretty bad sign when the anime has the definition of everyone for a split second and then moves on) and motives (5 minutes at the beginning in total if I recall before they were in the white room getting the game explained).

How can I care about anyone or guess who’s the traitor if I don’t actually actually know anyone? They’re 1D as fuck

The ending of the season doesn’t help neither tbh.

The animation is alright and I was interested in the beginning to see what twists there would be until I began losing it a little bit.

It’s not a good sign when my favorite part of the show it’s the nanana in the second part of the song of the opening.

SORRY FOR THE LONG POST :/

Wasn’t a huge fan of this episode but the Rock Paper Scissors was pretty awesome!

Personally I think it started slow but the middle episodes had me hooked, waiting for every new episode!

I see a ton of comments with manga readers not enjoying it.

As someone who just watched the anime it was entertaining. With potentially the best MC of the season.

7/10 from me. due to a slowish few episodes near the start and what seemed like a rushed final episode.

Bro the manga does a better at everything, the pacing is better there, the rules of the first two games are properly explained, the introduction of the characters are not just some shit thrown at the screen, it's not rushed and there are a lot of enjoyable dialogues that they just cut in the anime. The art is pretty good and the atmosphere is overall better.

Anime watcher here. As much as I enjoyed the series, this last episode was a bit disappointing. The sudden announcement of a special game on the previous episode made it sound big and exciting, but the way they handled it on this episode was terrible. I don't know how it went in the manga or how many chapters the studio attempted to fit on a last ditch effort, but I can tell that it didn't make justice to the manga considering its score compared to the adaptation. That being said, I'll read the manga because I don't want to wait for god knows how many months for a second season to be announced.

I recommend you to read from the start to recap some plot points and see how the manga pacing and sequence of events are overall better.

Every scene of Yuuichi trying to look insane or w/e was so bad that it was funny. The games and "twists" were terrible and predictable. I have absolutely 0 clue how people like this show. Feels like the author must be genuinely stupid if he can't come up with better ways to make his main character seem smart. When I was watching the rock paper scissors scene, I said out loud, "If he uses his left hand, this show is awful."

Yuichi taking all the pain was pretty obvious. Yutori was as annoying as ever. She's the worst of the five out there. Someone give Tenji a break. And where is Shiho? Did I missed something?

I don't mind the pacing...much. We need another season.

I hope we get another season since this episode ended on a cliffhanger. It fun seeing Yuichi turn the tables on them, but this time he won't participate after loosing a lot of blood so its up to Tenji and Kokorogi to save their friend. Looks like I found another manga to read in the meantime.

The whole torture game was dull because each round played out the same; Yuichi sacrificing himself and then shrugging off the injury. Yuichi being unfazed by any of the torture robs it of any drama.

The bad guy was such an ineffectual villain that I felt sorry he was being put through all if this. The rock paper scissors trick is so obvious you will probably see it instantly making the following mind games feel pointless.

It is not just the facial expressions they skipped also some dialoges and other things. But the Manga is not much different than the anime. So I am VERY VERY sure you won´t like it too.

Well it is nothing wrong to not like an anime others do. This Anime is just not your thing :)

That was pretty fun for an ending, Yuichi was definitely creepy but that's good to see how he can destroy this annoying guy, he got what he deserves, too bad Yuichi won't be participating in the next 4th game so it's probably gonna be average like the beginning of the show until the 3rd game that was actually pretty good, that's why I can say it was decent overall, just too bad it started very weak. 6/10

What a wet fart of an ending to an already boring show. The psychological parts are so surface level that it's just tiresome, then the "deep" explanation afterwards is just tiresome, and everyone's faith in Yuichi is just bad.

Ending it on the trial in that fashion makes it look like a season 2 may be coming which I would love but I will not hold my expectations too high, I still really enjoyed the show despite it having a rushed finale, 7 out of 10 as a whole from me and Yuuichi is a badass.

the season finale is here! and it's as good as expected. I'm even more curious about Yuuichis past and somehow, it's looking like he set up the whole thing so that he can use the trust he gained from Mikasa Tenji and the girl to send them to their own game.

season two better come fastttt!

It's finally over, absolutely atrocious anime. 3/10, and I think I am being generous here. It reminds me of something you enjoyed tremendously during your childhood, but when you revisit it 10-15 years later, it comes across as obviously garbage.

Young, green behind the ears, ignorant. If you are these things, you'll enjoy this anime.

Oof. Not a good place to end it. A very rushed final episode that sets up more than it resolves. Yuichi’s strategy for the rock paper scissors was also easy to see yet this show wants to explain it like it was some genius level tactic. A lot of edge too. Wasn’t a big fan of that either.

In total, I was quite disappointed in this show. I could see from episode 1 that the production quality would be bad, but I atleast expected the writing to get good. I was expecting Death Note level mind strats, but what I got was some smart moves played out way longer than it had any right to be.

So much time spent pretending Yuichi doesn’t have a plan when we all know he does. And when he actually does his plan it is often underwhelming because we’ve had so much time to find the clues and think about what to do in the situation.

So the main selling point ended up being a dud for me. It wasn’t completely trash though because the characters are actually written to have some depth, the games themselves are interesting, and the overarching mystery behind the Tomodachi game is a compelling one.

It’s a shame the adaptation wasn’t better. Solid 4/10

I ended up liking this more than I thought I would. Normally I hate the stupidity of most of these Death game styled shows but this turned out better than expected and I was actively invested in some parts because I was curious how Yuuichi would turn it around, of course I knew he always.

That said this last episode was totally not to my tastes with the needless scumbag antagonist and torture styled game, good thing it was a fake game.

I am curious to see more, my friend mentioned the manga was much better. I might consider picking it up cause the anime adaptation while passable does leave much to be desired. The OP was great though.

This felt really... rushed.
They just rushed everything and skipped so many things.
The manga was a lot more bloody too.
I did not enjoy the adaptation in this episode at all.
That ending was just... awful. Who ends an anime like that when no other season has been announced?

The most shocking thing for me in this episode, ignoring the horrible adaptation, was Kuroki's hair color!
I always thought he was a blonde...

Lol, rich coming from an Eren simp. Have you not seen how annoying that douche was for the first 3 seasons? Anya has done nothing to deserve any hate whatsoever, but yea haters like you always gonna hate without any reason (there is none for Anya). If you dislike SpyxFamily then that’s your choice, but saying Anya has “simps” is laughable.

Anyway in terms of this anime, although I enjoyed it the pacing wasn’t great, but Yuuichi was fun to watch

Well, The Episode Is Fantastic And I wouldn't Disappointed But I Give 4 vote out of 5,the reason is pointless but we have to wait one year for second season.
I expect atleast 24 episode but it gives break but Overall,This season is quite chilling and entertaining and I don't know why but I attached with character who hide their true power or devil face for a particular reason or some horrible things happened in their past.
And When He Saw Us True colour,it gives chill Vibe.
I Personally Attached With Yucchii❤️
Overall Rating Of Season I Give 8 out of 10✌️

I'm talking about the pacing of both in Anime adaption. Whether it's bullshit or not is kinda dependable, something amazing to you could also be bullshit to someone else.
