Much like Arisu, some are hunting for the truth behind the strange and deadly world they’ve landed in. A low numbered card is supposed to be relatively simple to survive, such as a locked room mystery, a 10 card far more difficult. An action-packed thriller and source of the hit Netflix drama where the only way to survive is to play the game!

However, I will recommend the show over the manga volumes simply because of the constant objectification of every one of the female characters. Deliveries to destinations outside Australia are made by DHL courier, and cannot be made to post office boxes. The first half is solid enough hook but it is really thanks to the second arc with the horse faced man with two machine guns chasing down everyone in a apartment complex in a brutal game of cat and mouse that elevates this series for me.

Unlike the drama of the streaming series, it’s played in the book as one of the future breaks of tension for laughs. Readers catching up with the original story after seeing the show have some interesting differences to look forward to, including a very different first game–a knowledge game that allows the reader to play along.

In the Netflix series, Karube was preparing to propose to a woman he worked with at a bar, who happened to be the lover of his boss whilst in the Manga he was single and owned a bar despite his age. Late one night, when he's hanging out with his friend Karube and his silly, girl-crazy friend Chota, they see fireworks.An eight-episode live-action series, produced by Netflix and directed by Shinsuke Satō, premiered on December 10, 2020, in over 190 countries worldwide simultaneously.

all of this to say: i can't wait to read the next installment, where we get to see more of usagi and the stakes will be ramped up ever higher! The trio finds themselves back at the bar covered in dust, discovering that the city has become a barren wasteland.

The Tag half of the book was my favourite - it was genuinely riveting and fun to watch, with different players attempting different strategies and Aso throwing in one twist after another right to the very end.
