I'm not digging it all that much either. Same for the manga. I'll leave it off for now and hope it gets better

You can simply stop here and start try the Kaiji animated show or a Kaiji manga series instead if you want more engaging situations and characters whose actions have meaning.

So far it's the most popular show of the season...

And considering there is a FATE anime going on...that's kinda impressive.

It looks trashy af....but I'm OK with that.

Eromanga-sensei was trashy too...and that was easily one of my favorite new anime this year!

It's Anime, you either get used to its tropes and have fun, or keep on the stposting and watch things you don't like (or pretend you don't so your E-self looks cool).

I watched the first episode and decided it wasn't for me. I've already seen No Game No Life anyway, so why see an uglier version of a show I've already watched?

But for real though can we talk about how good the main character is

Extreme and crazy, not a sore loser, honest, has self confidence and the best of all isn't a disgusting cry baby when put in a bad situation

Don't be surprised if people think anime fans are perverts though seeing that this is the most popular show of the season.

You should read Liar Game before saying that, it's not as hype nor has any ZAWA ZAWA but it's more serious.

Yeah...it's another Fate anime with Servant vs Servant battles.

Honestly, I DO think Fate is a fun anime...even though it's insanely repetitive.

But the Fate fans are too much for me and suck the fun of watching the series.

I'm genuinely happy this anime is so far surpassing the amount of members on MAL watching it than Fate.

I don't really care about Fate myself that much
but it being more or less watched feels a bit weird to care about. But I guess still we all have those kinds of shows were you just can't help but think its weird one is more widely watched than the other like I do for Toradora and Shana

Because of Nao Kanzaki being a crybaby? Don't worry you are not alone, plenty of people complained about that. I guess that you won't like it more than Kaiji but her whining decreases over time and in the end she ends up being able to do things that even Akiyama can showing that being smart is not everything.

Oh right, there's another interesting manga with gambling and outsmarting one another but with more violence, problem is that it is still going on and the translation are not on par with the japanese releases, Usogui but you already have it in PTR.

I'll keep that in mind. Got it all in a harddrive already so I'll be hitting sometime before the summer ends. Thanks.

However it doesn't matter why are you watching it for, if people cared about this things all kind of stereotypes would decrease.

Oh yeah, gotta check one outs one day.
I mean I was just saying because you didn't add Liar game to your list thinking you didn't know about it. If you added it as on-hold or dropped I wouldn't have said anything.

Also I mentioned Usogui in my edit after you replied but you have it in PTR so whatever, too bad that it's not complete.

I feel that. And yeah, thats the same reason I haven't started Usogui, it's still ongoing but i'm pretty hyped for when it ends.
Dont got liar game on my dropped cause i honestly don't want it there unless i know for SURE that I'm never going to read it.

@zal Thanks, I didn't name it because usually talking about things without animated adaptations get me a "I don't read". (plus I mostly watched the TV show and only read the first book back when the french publication started)

Also, I could have talked about the imaginary manga/anime Kujibiki Unbalance from Genshiken, who takes place in a school where it's all about games and lottery. But I fear some angry reactions.

More or less he is most of the time the narrator and the commentary guy and sometimes has a supporting role for the 2 main girls.

but in short he is what you would call a MC only on paper.

Gambling in itself is luck, or cheating. And if you cant afford to loose, why would you be in this school?

But man I wish Miyuki sawashiro had the main heroin instead of Hayami Saori sure shes great but Miyuki is the best without a doubt voicing psycho girls. Damn... start reading the manga now...
