SPOILER FRIENDLY REVIEW
Tomodachi game is like squid game x among us gone right. That's right, it's a story about a group of friends who struggle in a series of 'friendship' games to repay their debt and figure out who the imposter is. As the story unfolds, we are able to see characters choose between money and friends, revealing the influence of a capitalist society on human beings (especially young adults). I find the main character, Katagiri Yuuichi, very relatable to myself since despite his poor upbringing, he manages to become smart and handsome. Although I believe I am the reincarnation of Katagiri Yuuichi, I will

Plot: 10/10
It was so good squid game and among us chose to copy its plot. The idea is so genius not even AOT can compete. As a manga reader, there are many unpredictable and complex plot twists which are explained leaving room for ZERO plot holes. It doesn't add any meaningless plot twists and the story remains consistent. It's hard to believe an anime such as Tomodachi Game can pull this off better than Death Note. I believe only people with high intellect such as myself can appreciate tomodachi game's incredible plot and storytelling.
Art: 10/10
Do I need to say anymore? LOOK AT MANABU-KUN how did the anime adaptation do him so well like I fell in love with him the moment he appeared on my screen.
Sound: 9/10
The opening and ending is very good. It is only episode 4 but no OST's have stood out to me yet. The sound has the potential to be 10/10 if it has a unique soundtrack playing in the back like fly me to the moon by squid game.
Characters: 10/10
Manabu-kun hard carries the characters. He is genuinely so funny and likeable. Without him, Tomodachi Game would never be this good. Every character has a unique backstory which explains their personalities and although it has only been 4 episodes, I have such a huge emotional attachment to Manabu-Kun. I don't know how I will live without seeing him animated after the 12 episodes are done.
Enjoyment: 10/10
I was kept at the edge of my seat the entire time without a single moment where I was like "damn this is so boring". I find myself trying to find the imposter the entire time and whenever my predictions and calculations are on point, I feel so smart. Definitely worth the watch.
Overall: 10/10
This anime gives me such a good escape from reality and if I did have tomodachis in real life, I would definitely try to play this game with them.
