My final thought was 'huh?' The last 3-4 eps maybe the entirety of phase 3 was bad. The last episode was rushed and all over the place. I guess the ones out are the ones that had enough points to move on...maybe? And who the hell was that guy in Akira's apartment? Dad? Brother? He had green wrist stripes, too.

The final battle is here between Yuri and the big guy, Oogami is on and this is not looking good for Yuuri. Her ability is not working because of Kuroiwa's last strike but Akira's here to fight Oogami in place of her and what a surprise, Akira and Green Team won. It was all a dream. At least, Akira got a hug from Yuuri.

Overall, this show was Idk how to describe it. It was not good but at the same time, it was not the worst show in this season. Definitely, all over the place. The story itself was quite predictable to me. Tho, I enjoyed some characters in this show. But, not impressed very much. Could've been better.

it said it was part of the 4th stage of the game, so it wasn't a dream

Wow, this show is shit. Can't really decide which was the worst thing in this show:
- CGI looks terrible, it's on Berserk 2016 or Ex-Arms level
- Artstyle looks like 15 years back
- Main dude always be like: "haha lol, i am so smart, i can even predict when you take a shit. and don't think it was your decision to take that shit, it was all me outsmarting you into thinking you needed that shit". No thanks, we have way too many wannabe genius characters in anime already.
- All the characters feel irrelevant, i didn't care for a single one. The whole cast could have died and i wouldn't care. At least then we would never have the probability of another season.

1 / 10
I'm not reading any replies or comments directed at me at all. I know my truth and if you disagree: that's fine but i couldn't give a damn about :)

The show had it's highs and lows. I had thought about dropping it earlier, but then the middle of the season sort of got me hooked. The last few episodes were ok, but not the best. This final episode was really confusing though because it kept jumping from one thing to another, and not really elaborating on it.

I'm guessing the leader of Team Blue also has the ability that Akira has.

Also, that entire thing was a dream? The last part of the episode when theyu were in Tokyo really confused me.

The truth has been spoken. Exactly my opinion. Though, I would give it a 4 because it's still watchable for a waste of time. I've seen worse.

Don't know why I bothered finishing this but I did, geez did it get dumb and poorly adapt the manga, which itself is pretty dumb. Don't read it it's just endless more of the MC "outsmarting" people who think they are "outsmarting" him. Gotta stop watching these garbage shows.

Pretty bad start, but middle part was quite entertaining but towards the end, animation was ruined by cgi. Overall animation was also not good. Though lot of unnecessary cannon.
Decent survival anime if not for super bad animation

Akira stepped up and won the game for Team Green. Yipee, I suppose. Omoto has the same ability as Akira. That's a surprise, at least. They returned to normality, somehow, considering they are all supposed to be dead...

I did not enjoy this show, not one bit, and this episode did nothing to change my mind whatsoever.

I understand from the ending that they are still in the game, but... does that mean that there is a second season?

I get that most of the people posting here thought that it was horrible, but, apart from the last episode, I thought that it was pretty decent (although completely agree about the horrible CGI).

Anyway, do we know anything about a 2nd season?

So do they all know and remember they're still in the game in the ending? That was the only thing unclear. It seemed like some of them did based on looking at their wrists? But it was unclear.

It was rushed as heck.

How Yuuri was still keeping up with the fight with Oogami even with broken bones...I don't know what to say, but what was that, some kinda nakama power just randomly got activated? I wouldn't care if it was some Fairy Tail type of anime but that type of storyline isn't suitable for this anime.

And Akira just came and one punched Oogami just like that, it was underwhelming. I know that Akira's power can literally be anything but they made him way too superior. It would have been better if some of his plans failed.

The way it ended tho, they really got me there. That would have been some freakin' long dream XD
Actually if it really was a dream then all those overdramatic scenes would've been believable.

Looks like Yuuri and Akira is dating.

Anyway, it was interesting in the beginning but both story and the animation went downhill. I wasn't expecting much from the animation from the start but it got so bad especially when this Oogami guy was introduced. The CG on Oogami was so badly noticeable that it looked like some avatar was copy pasted there. And everything was rushed. In the 3rd program most of the fights ended so quickly in favour of the MC, it was anticlimactic.

overall 6/10

Looks like there might be a sequel. I'm curious about this 4th Program in Tokyo so I'm looking forward to it.

Lost a bit of enjoyment with its lowered stakes as most of the time there are no repercussions for losing and also the overuse of the "super rare" cannon ability since apparently everyone seems to have it, but overall decent at best generic series.

The was a weird series...

What the fuck was at the end?

How did they get back to the real world? I thought they were kept in the fake world by Mion?

Especially how the fuck they got their "identity" back? I thought Mion said they were all declared dead? did no one bother asking how dead people are back doing normal things like nothing ever happened?

Not to mention... I thought they were suppose to kill off all the losers of the battle? how the hell are they still alive (as evidenced by the underwear girl ALSO walking in the real world)

___ ___ ___

TBH, I was getting close to dropping this series after episode 3, but decide to stick it out cause of the "detective" aspect they were going for the MC... which turns out there wasn't really much of a detective, more like "who has better facade"

Welp, probably won't be watching season 2 if they're still going with it.

Would rate this a 5 out of 10.

So this whole time it what just a dream dayum I didn’t expect that but I guess the game still continues and also I’m not sure if that akira dad that shows up at the very end and also I think in episode 3 or 4 the bunny costumes that the wore where pretty hot ngl but either ways I’m not sure if it going to get a season 2 but I feel that this anime is underrated and from my pov now that I have finished it i would rate it like a 7/10 the anime it not bad but at the same it isn’t good bc of the cgi the use in the fight scene and also mion said there where dead irl so for some unknown reason the come back to life ? Idk the need a explain about that

True! And it surprises me there was no healing ability in the show. Usually there is.

Rukodaime91 said:

Sometimes, I wonder if there was one single intelligent character in the show. I don't think there was... I mean, just ask Yuuri to give you healing ability, you know...
(mostly for the first few episodes).


Too bad Akira's cannon can't hit a single person in the entire anime. Kuroiwa obviously knew the script so he wasn't afraid of a point-blank blast killing him instantly. Shark Guy Origami didn't have to fear it either - Akira didn't even try.

And from what we've seen, Shark Guy could probably wave it away somehow.

Amazing how cannon beams have hit each other straight on more than once, and somehow that means neither of them progresses. And Yuuri and Shark Guy hitting each other's fists - straight on, so that the bones shatter because there is absolutely no angle. Amazing. You could go to martial arts or boxing for decades and never experience that.


But the most unforgivable part was showing character in a battle talk to each other "in the spirit" outside the battle. That reduces the battle to nothing. It's no longer real in any way. There was an egregious scene in Vikings season 4 that did the same, two women who had been friends fighting on opposite sides, and somehow talking to each other in the spirit. Absurd. (Almost as absurd as people thinking women can lift a heavy shield and sword and make use of them, because they've seen it a million times now in Hollywood stories.)

Ah yes, an evil character pontificating about why he is evil. Lousiest writing ever. No character thinks about "why am I evil". Let alone tells people about it in a fight.

And then this, from Akira: "If you spare them I'll appear before you." Okay........ or how about killing them and you're sure to confront Shark Guy anyway? And even if it takes a while, he'll have taken out your two strongest fighters, and dealt you a heavy psychological blow. Team green will be reeling after that, with people switching sides.

I've read Darwin's Game since the anime started. Good story although excruciatingly slow, and lately there's been walls of text to read. But still good. Hope it will end in my lifetime.

@RedBell02 No, I think the ending meant that those who had enough points to get out of the forest-with-no-end-in-any-direction were returned to their real lives. I think so, at least. Because he said, "the game continues".

Average anime with a generic plot and characters. 4/10.
And I'm being generous because that CGI is awful.

Survival anime are usually a hit or miss. In this case it's somewhere in between at least for me. I like the concept even though it's nothing new or different. I wish there was more to it than just fighting your opponent in different programs or figuring out their powers because the low budget animation doesn't help.

Akira is the main thing that made this show interesting because of his intelligence and apathetic attitude with a desire to win the game and destroy the organization. I just hope his newly discovered emotions don't affect his personality and turn him into a "nice" guy. All the other character are pretty generic and bland. The villains are the typical overused "good" guys turned bad because someone took their lollipop in the past and now they hate the world for it.

The ending was so lame. I feel the studio just gave up towards the end. Even the fight was a joke. I don't even know how they ended up back in their world or was it a dream? Anyways I doubt this will get season 2 but you never know.

I'm not sure what to say. The Kuroichi siblings definitely failed as antagonists.

I'm glad that Yuuri is the one who did the speech-no-jutsu. I would totally lost my head if Akira did it, it just doesn't fit his character at all.

I'm considering to read the manga/Light Novel just because I want to see more of Rin and Mion. They are a lot more menacing than Kuro and Ichi.

Really confusing ending. Was it a dream? Did it happen? Why is everyone healed especially the big guy who lost his limbs? They all dead and playing some game in hell? Bruh everything is so confusing.

Overall show is probably 6/10 considering writing and animation but this ending.. Idk how to judge it.

I would still watch S2 tbh even if it was kinda shit

> My power is to copy any power I see.

Any of those 3 lies should have been tried by the MC before or at some point. If any where to succeed is GG well played. There doesn't seem to be a restriction to existing powers of other characters, so chances are even 1) would work. At that point you could do shit like stop time, teleport others, kill on thought, etc, MC would basically be God or at least as powerful as the system allows.

So... shit show. You can't have a smart MC not be smart.
