Sui is no pushover. That kid may be one of the most unpredictable characters in this anime so far.

At least Kaname managed to reunite with Shuuka after all this time. That kiss though. I guess she really missed him lol. Dunno how much they can trust Sui but hey, at least the kid isn't an enemy anymore.

The Eighth clan is on the move and there are few players left. These guys are merciless.
At least Rein figured out something. And so might have the Eighth clan's leader.

I find Sui/Souta character interesting.

Hmm a being that has two different persona's then. Using the soft drinks within a konbini though was a interesting tactic. Sui and Souta despite sharing the same body seem to have very distinct personalities. Its good that Kaname was able to get to Shuka in time. Its cute seeing her pout when Kaname mentioned his new allies. So Shuka's motives for entering the game was revenge huh. Given the nature of the game the number of people that it can draw in can vary both in numbers and profession. Wang and his cronies though really represent the worst of the players. Given her nature its thankful that Sui did not have to fight Shuka again. Overall a decent ep that managed to advance the story via daring rescue of Shuka by Kaname and the transition to phase 2 of the event. Im curious in what the true prize for the event is though as it looks like the rings weren't the key at all. Meanwhile things at the hotel are really heating up. Rein's hypothesis though was an curious one and looking forward to seeing if its true.

Oh so Shuka has been involve in that game since being a kid when she sees her parents getting killed, talk about a Batman syndrome.

Oh Sota is an aggressive one while Sui was the meek one and both exist in one body.

BOOM! I called it last week; I knew that kid had a double personality and I also figured that the other personality was her twin brother! She could be an awesome addition to the team but since she won't fight I can't see what she brings to the table really... but if she lets Souta do his thing then...

This episode was pure GAS. I ship Kaname and Shuka hard af, great moment with him coming to save her. Begs the question how the fuck she survived for like 20 minutes unconscious and can be ressucitated with no Brain damage lol. New member of the squad and solid build up to the big fight that's to come in the next couple of weeks. So DG has been going for quite a long time if Shuka's parents were victims of it as well. It makes me wonder if the creators have some type of supernatural abilities which causes people to become trapped in this death game with no apparent end in sight. what's their end goal?

Not sure why this show is so slept on, dope animation, fights, and a cool premise. It is my first time watching a battle royale type show so maybe to others who have seen more it's a more tired concept. But, I have loved every moment of it so far and will definitely have to check out the manga

Damn this anime feels so slow, i feel like the events of the last few episodes could have been done faster, this whole thing looks like its going to be like 10% of its source, idk about that one though, haven't read the manga, but it feels like its taking too much time, at last we can expect to see an intense fight in the next episode and one thing this show does well is sound design, those hits sounds are 😩👌 so i'm expecting something really good.

So it wasn't that there were two of them, but that it was a split personality thing. Well that explains my suspicion from last episode. Anyway the "romance" in this show is by far the weakest part. Shuka's infatuation with Kaname is so nonsensical. Her character is just so stupid.

How can you have a conversation with your other personality via chat with just one phone?

Overall, better than the boring previous episode but still lacking in some aspects. The CPR moment was plain stupid but other than that, I have to say that the last minutes with The Florist being all badass was entertaining enough. Too bad it seems the guy won't last long.

I liked this episode. The characters are starting to get more developed and the relationship between Shuka and Kaname is progressing

We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths.
As death comes to embrace you, you will realise what you are.
That's what death is, don't you think?

It wasn't for 20 minutes. There was an after credits scene from episode 5 that shows she didn't drown until after Sudo dived into the water to rescue her.

Sui/Souta is the current character in danger of jeopardizing the situation at hand. With their water Sigil it's possible at long-range, but without said element he/she cannot produce attacks. Worse, being a split personality does not bode well for him/her, and plans to join the recently-made clan worked out nonetheless.

Meanwhile, Kaname is stuck with rescuing Shuka from Sui's attack last episode, and no way other than CPR would suffice for a kiss...IN FREEZING WATER (like why hold there for very long?). And so it seems the ship has begun sailing, plus the notion of ending this farce of a game soon, with the Treasure Hunt being more than it meets the eye.

On the other side, Wang's Eighth clan is progressing more with more rings distributed, and the smarts of plans found out. With the hotel raid, it's the Florist Hiiragi vs. the Eighth clan. Hope he survives while Rein escaped unscathed, finding out the true location of the Treasure Hunt.

The whole thing about Shuka's yandere-turned-tsundere personality is just plain nonsensical, as funny as it is, I'd think that cliches only fit her character well. Other than getting revenge for her parents through joining D-Game, her objective aligns with Kaname's plan to obliterate D-Game ASAP.

This episode flew by past and fast, wasn't expecting that.

I was kinda triggered by them talking so long in ice water instead of moving out first.

And nooo, I am afraid we are going to lose Mr. Higari... But I guess "our squad" would be too OP with him.

So it seems I was right about the numbers being related to coordinates, or at least so the genius middle school girl seems to think.

What about the Higari-san? Maybe he's not featured in both the opening and ending because he won't join the clan but, hey, he could still survive. [No spoilers, please.]

This is getting dumber and dumber, Kaname and Shuka should be dead long ago. Surpringly the ones who died at Wang's clan hands died quite fast and may I say had realistic deaths.

Eh? You can do CPR standing? It's obvious that they're couple in this series.
Sui/Sota twin's sigil is good too. I thought they are 2 people, maybe she's hallucinating about her twin brother and she have split personality?

I like the Florist guy but I think he will get killed :( he's not one of the main characters huhuhu

Hopfeully, the Florist makes it out alive. As is he and the other side characters are more interesting than Kaname. Sadly, the animation during the assault scene was also pretty weak unlike in the engagement with Sui.

Looking forward for more battles, unique tactics and the story to unfold.
