1/10 Weird blind body-switching with strangers thing, the people use this chance to rape, physically damage, commit crimes etc. in the host's body before they return. Tries to do this mystery thing since MC comes back to his body to find he killed his sister. Turns out the antagonist has split-personality that formed due to trauma. Crappy ending, I hate this cop-out bs
6/10 Conceited/entitled girl loses all money, works at her childhood friend's bakery. There's some character development. I preferred Seiyuu ka a lot more. Romance is eh. Ml is pretty mean to fl.
7/10 Cute story about 2 couples, each of the 4 characters being an otaku (gaming, cosplay, doujinshi writer, and shoujo manga lover) and how they all become friends. 2nd couple I like because they bicker a lot and main couple is cute to watch as they support each other. Don't care for the 3rd couple at all.
10/10 I WAS FILLED WITH ANTICIPATION ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT and like the death games in this one involve lots of big brain math. This is up with liar game, just imagine the main characters of liar game were combined into one character who's super smart and kindhearted to a fault.
8/10 Interesting psychological death games, weak ending (it was all just a dreaaam). People who survived till the end woke up irl (a meteorite hit Japan = lots of injuries) but the "borderlands" were a dimension for that line between life/death and staying there would mean abandoning life on Earth which can be interpreted to be death itself. Very heavy-handed about the purpose/meaning of life
2/10 Didn't enjoy this one, as a VERY loose sequel to Alice in Borderland this focused on how shitty humans can be. All characters were unrealistic caricatures (seriously, who would sacrifice their whole team's safety to kill a high school girl "because you don't like the look in her eyes"? Weak backstories, self-righteous MC, and a "twist villain" girl who set a bomb irl. Unnecessary killing and conflict TO THE EXTREME. Do not reread. Loose card theme (card =
2/10 Messy and poorly executed plot, no suspense or build-up, a cop-out plot twist by "oh the girl was hypnotized to kill people" and the mastermind's backstory was weak. Do not reread.
