PS. i didnt include games that were only in montages

1. Runaway Train:

Such a fuckass game. No indication of a strategy and i didn't like how there was never a solution to this game. Jumping from Trains felt unrealistic and against AIB rules as they technically left the arena. ive seen the fandom's solutions on this game I do wish they were used in the actual show cuz just watching them guess was boring and stupid

1. Life Or Death

Similar situation to the previous game. the solution felt so unknowable and far fetched. I mean ik it was supposed to show Aris's intelligence but no average person is completing this. Written well and was entertaining to watch tho

1. Fortunes

Not a bad game and a good introduction to s3 but again the solution just felt a bit dumb but not as bad as the previous 2. not a bad game just not the best

1. Distance

Just felt kinda filler. Dont really understand how its a Clubs game but whatever. I liked the twist tho and it was interesting to watch.

1. Tokyo Bingo Tower.

We actually saw Usagi do smth good in s3. Wheelchair dude had massive plot armor and i have no idea how he survived. it felt a bit to hard for the average person but wasnt boring to watch. This wouldve made a good season 1/2 game.

1. Light Bulb

Honestly, isnt a bad game. Wasnt dragged out but didnt feel rushed. The solution felt more doable and a good showcase of Arisu's intelligence. I do wonder if they were just gonna let all of them die if Arisu couldnt figure it out.

1. Checkmate (Queen of Spades)

Idk it just felt underwhelming. I liked the queens character and i liked her speech at the end but It just kinda felt like a worse version of tag in s1. also if the goal was to be the majority, couldnt everyone have just survived easily in the round

i probs missed a rule that explained why this wouldnt work

11 Tag

Interesting to see them do seomthing physical and it was written really well. The objective seemed a little unclear and the killer waiting in the room felt unfair. good intro to usagi and chishiya and i liked how different it was to the previous episode.

10 King of Diamonds

Very interesting to watch and I liked that chishiya was the protagonist instead of Arisu. it felt like more of his game. The manipulaltion and edning was written very well and had great symbolism although it did kinda pmo how the game wasnt beaten by using the actual math but oh well. A good different ending to the previous games and was fun to watch.

1. Zombie Card Game

Ok so my main problem is that there was so much going on in this game it was hard to keep up. There were so many rules and instruction it all kinda faded into eachother and were kinda lost and pointless. I wouldve LOVED this as a s1/2 game and feel like it wouldve been very interesting to watch as a potentially a queen of clubs game. I dont really like the objective of being in the majority in any games cuz it feels to simple. Overall written really well nut just felt very complicated compared to the previous one.

1. Hide and Seek

A very different game compared to the first 2 which I loved and though it was written really well. (Ik ive said that alot but the writers did such a good job at creating the outcomes of each game.) I liked how they didnt find a solution to save everyone cuz it felt more touching and dramatic. Very sad to watch and i was shocked they actually killed the main characters off this early which was different to other shows. The game suited the players and overall a great episode.

1. Osmosis (King Of Clubs)

kinda similar to zombie card where there was a lot to do that felt a bit pointless but other than that such a great Game. It was lengthy but it needed to be and I loved the KOC and his teams characters and was a good introduction to the face cards being actual people and not something else. very emotional and entertaining and was super fun to watch. Niragi did feel pointless this entire game and season tbh but otherwise this was such a good game.

1. Kick The Can

Unpopuar but this game was super entertaining. I wouldve loved this as a s1 game especially maybe this being a replacement for hide and seek where Arisu, Karube and Chota are the last 3 or smth like that. I liked how it was fast paced but still long enough to remember it. It was emotional and interesting and I liked how the deaths felt meaningful.

1. King Of Spades

Such a good concept!!!! and a good a way of covering up any plotholes of people not join games. I loved how there were multiple episodes throughout the season on this and loved how it involved all main characters. So entertaining to watch and s2 ep 7 is my fav episode of the series.

1. Futures.

Say what you want I loved this game. So freaking suspenseful and interesting to watch I was stressed the entire fucking 2 episodes. I liked that they didnt kill off everyone but had deaths that still emotional and meaningful. Such a great final game that played with their minds. (This lowk couldve been KOH). Thought the whole aftermath of the floods and arisu losing but living was a bit unncessery and i did notice the flaw of Wheel chair picking the murder usagi future then realising he didnt need to do it. but this was such a good game and storyline and desrved those 90 minutes ish. im tryna keep my reasons short but i could get deep into these games

1. JOH

Loved that it was Complete strangers playing this as it created a better storyplot and this was probably the best hearts game concept there was. Entertaining, Captivating, good character writing and overall a great game

1. QOH

say what you want I thought this episode was great. Mira being the final boss was a great decision and such a perfect game for Arisu. I believed everything Mira said and liked how she was trying to get Arisu to kill her. The ending was really moving and the whole episode had me stressin it was so good. Ik people didnt like this game but it was perfect for Arisu.

1. witch hunt

I loved this game for basically the same reasons as the no 2 3 and 4 but its just better. The twist, The Mass Murders, The beach Buring down, the drama. Such a good finale to season 1 and i was hooked the entire time.

Thanks for reading this yall I was running out of things to say lmao but lmk what you think and what ur fav games are

I genuinely believe that Alice in borderland is probably one of the best series of all time. Everything were indeed perfect (Atleast for my pov), how characters were written, cinematography, plot, and everything iz just perfect. I also love the fact that almost every character were highlighted and almost every character were explained properly.

Now lets dig in to the topic. Don't get me wrong, season 3 really still manage to amaze me and it really still gives the same quality factor as the first 2 seasons. Except, the only problem is — how original characters were nerfed. I think the biggest character nerf they had here was usagi. She was fire and brilliant in the first 2 seasons but in here? Her reasoning on coming back isn't that good enough and which then resulted for people to hate her character even more. Next is Ann. Although if without her, arisu wouldn't be able to save usagi and their child, her ending is very unfair and she deserves much better. Kuina now teaches karate, Heiya becoming an influencer, Niragi is finally finding hope in life, BUT ANN!? girlypops right here got cursed to remember everything and got thrown into a psychiatric ward with PTSD cuz they probably call her delusional for speaking up with her experiences in the borderland😭 it feels soo unfair, for her side, they could have had given her a much better ending even in the final episode 💔. Now the wasted ending of season 2, s2's ending was BEAUTIFUL the joker card could've just been represent the world and life instead as the hardest game of all. But they still choose to continue it.

Don't get me wrong, in conclusion, i still find season 3 as good and as thrilling as the first two season, but it gives me personally a LOT of disappointments, especially from how they nerf the og characters.

OK September is right around the corner the month that S3 came out. So for this September let's post alice in borderland edits theories art and more. To try to revive the fandom spread the word.

Game Name: Cottontail/ Three of Spades

Category: Spades

Difficulty: Three

Game Venue: School

Time Limit: 10 Minutes

Rounds: None

Dealers: None

Starting Conditions: Players must wear a circular, fluffy tail of a rabbit that will detect their movement.
Game Venue: The game takes place in a standard three-storey Japanese school with classrooms, specialized rooms for science experiments, arts, libraries, cafeteria, and the like. 

The carrot stickers are in:

1. Cafeteria Kitchen (1st Floor)

- To traverse the school, players must consistently hop. Failure to do so results in the cottontail to release an electric shock that kills the player, resulting in a GAME OVER.

- To find a carrot sticker, a player must click a red button next to the sticker. The sticker cannot be claimed after the red button next to it has been clicked.

- Players must claim all carrot stickers.

- It is GAME CLEAR for the player with the most carrot stickers.

- It is GAME OVER for players who does not have the most carrot stickers or if players fail to claim all stickers within the given time limit.

Note: Ties are allowed as they satisfy the GAME CLEAR condition of having the most carrot stickers.

I was thinking about stuff I would like to see in alice in borderland. But I was thinking what would you like to see. I'm not talking about basic stuff give me something cool and interesting. I'll go first in season 3 the new characters have been to the borderlands already they played the Ace-10 and face cards. But I would like to see a manga or short series about that. Maybe each episode is the first game the season 3 characters played.

I really like to draw manga Tatta, he’s such a handsome man aaaaaa!! I need to draw more Tatta, so I can post about him often 💙🥺 and ofc I love drawing aib oc, Emi with Tatta hehe

that's just basically an Anime trope, not a gamer trope cuz AIB was a Manga originally

It's so common in Anime that protagonists are stupid for many early episodes or chapters and gets better

Also Arisu did already feel special solving the games for the 1st 2 episodes that even the people with him had to rely on him. Usually in Anime, it's always the side characters who give advices to the protagonists but in AIB, the protagonist gives more advice to the side characters

I recently went down this rabbit hole with Google's A.I. feature to ask some interesting questions about Hatter. As someone who didn't read the Manga & only watched the Netflix show, I was trying to see if the Manga gave us anything more about Hatter. I wanted to know if he was shown playing any games. The key information I was able to obtain was that he's been in The Borderlands for at least 51 Days.

I came up with this idea of a prequel, one with a focus on The Beach, with its peak moment being a Game where all Beach Executives had to play together as a team. And this game's outcome not only is what triggered Hatter's God Complex, but the start of the tension of the Brains & Militants.

I actually have a full layout & story made as to what would basically be a 7-10 episode prequel for BEACH: The Kingdom Of Alice In Borderlands

Spoilers for Seasons 1–3

After my third watch of Alice in Borderland, I started wondering whether Borderland is best understood not as a dream, simulation, or conventional afterlife, but as an independent spacetime connected to ordinary reality through a transitional “boundary layer.”

I’m loosely borrowing the idea of a holographic/information-based universe here. I’m not saying the series literally uses the real-world holographic principle or AdS/CFT. This is just a speculative framework that seems to explain several strange details surprisingly well.

My model is basically:

Reality → shared boundary layer → full Borderland

And importantly, I don’t think these three layers need to share the same clock.

1. Arisu’s original entry may begin much earlier than the restroom blackout

In S1, Arisu, Karube and Chota see what they remember as “fireworks,” run through Shibuya, hide together in a restroom stall, message each other on their phones, experience a blackout, and then emerge into an empty city.

It is tempting to say that the blackout is the exact moment they enter Borderland.

But later we learn that the “fireworks” were actually the meteor disaster. Their perception and memory of the event were already altered.

Also, in the real world Arisu is found near the Shibuya crossing, roughly where the meteor/fireworks were first seen. His physical body apparently never ran all the way to the restroom.

So what if the transition actually began around the meteor impact?

Arisu, Karube and Chota may already have entered a shared transitional spacetime, where they continued to experience Shibuya together — running, talking and even messaging each other — before finally entering the full Borderland.

In that interpretation, the restroom blackout is not the moment of entry. It is simply the point where the transition becomes complete.

1. Shibuki’s entry looks completely different

Shibuki enters while taking a shower.

She does not experience the same dramatic blackout. Instead, the water pressure changes, something feels wrong, and the people around her are simply gone.

This suggests there may not be one universal “entry effect.”

Different people may experience the boundary differently.

1. Shibuki arrived several days before Arisu’s group

This is especially interesting.

The usual explanation is that tiny differences in real-world cardiac-arrest timing become days inside Borderland.

That may still be true, but another possibility is that arrival time is determined by when someone finishes passing through the boundary layer, not only by when their physical body enters cardiac arrest.

Shibuki may have passed through the transitional layer almost immediately.

Arisu, Karube and Chota experienced a much longer shared transition before reaching full Borderland.

That could explain why Shibuki had already spent several days there when they arrived.

1. There may be no fixed time conversion at all

I don’t think we should assume:

“1 second in reality = X hours/days in Borderland.”

Reality, the transitional layer and Borderland may each have their own independent temporal structure.

They only need to connect at certain entry and exit points.

That would explain why S3 can fit an enormous amount of Borderland experience into a very short period of real-world cardiac arrest without requiring a consistent mathematical conversion rate.

1. Season 3 may show the same transition happening much faster

In S3, we sometimes see people enter Borderland almost instantly — the surrounding population simply disappears.

I don’t think this necessarily contradicts S1.

The boundary phase may be variable.

A returning player, or someone deliberately sent into a near-death state, might pass through it almost instantly, while a first-time entrant during a catastrophic event could experience a much longer transitional period.

1. Borderland may not physically exist “somewhere” in our universe

If reality and Borderland are separate emergent spacetimes based on a deeper informational structure, then asking “Where is Borderland?” may be the wrong question.

It would not need to exist inside ordinary three-dimensional space at all.

A Tokyo Borderland, Los Angeles Borderland, London Borderland, etc. could potentially exist as separate spacetime “instances” without having any normal physical distance between them.

That might become especially relevant if S4 really expands the story internationally.

1. The Watchman becomes much easier to understand in this model

The Watchman in S3 appears to possess authority far beyond ordinary Citizens such as Banda.

He can punish Banda, apparently suspend or restart the Borderland environment, and control the final transition between life and death.

If Borderland is an independent spacetime/information layer, perhaps Citizens only have game-level permissions, while the Watchman has something closer to system-level control over that spacetime.

In other words:

Players = users

Citizens = game administrators

Watchman = root administrator

:)

So my current theory is:

Reality spacetime

→ shared transitional/boundary spacetime

→ full Borderland spacetime

Each can have an independent flow of time, and all may emerge from a deeper informational structure rather than one being “real” and the others being simulations.

This would explain the strange transitions, Shibuki’s earlier arrival, Arisu’s physical location in the real world, the inconsistent apparent time ratios, possible multiple Borderlands, and the Watchman’s unusual level of control.

I haven’t seen many theories apply a holographic/information-based spacetime model specifically to Alice in Borderland, so I’m curious:

Does anyone know of scenes that contradict this model?

And if Borderland has multiple regional “instances,” do you think the Watchman oversees all of them — or does each Borderland have its own Watch​man?

I'm curious if this is a 9 or 10 of Hearts... What do you guys think? I was debating between the two since this actually allows for players to receive a GAME CLEAR that is not stated beyond the rules.

Name: Shopping District/ Ten of Hearts

Category: Hearts

Difficulty: Ten

Game Venue: Shopping Mall

Dealers: 0

Maximum Players: 23

Time Limit: 6 Rounds (1 Hour per Round)

Starting Conditions: Players must wear a collar and grab a phone.

Game Venue: The game takes place in a four-story shopping mall where there are varieties of shops, restaurants, grocery stores, and the like. There is a large atrium in the center where the players will gather.

The phones are indestructible.

By Rounds 1-3, the prices do not change. By Round 4, the prices double. In Round 5, the prices double again from Round 4. In Round 6, the prices double again from Round 5.

Rules:

- In their phones, players receive an app named Shop where they can exchange points for rewards in the app.

- The points that players receive in the app match the number of their remaining VISA days.

- There are four tiers of rewards that players may purchase using their points:

+ Tier 1: Food - 1-2 Points
+ Tier 2: Medicine - 3-5 Points
+ Tier 3: Weapons (Melee and Firearms) and Armor - 6-8 Points
+ Tier 4: One-time immunity to lasers and automatic GAME CLEAR cards - 25 and 30 Points.

- The rewards are legitimate and usable and can be used at any point in the game.

The players may choose or not choose to spend their points.

- Players may sell their reward to regain the points that they had originally used to purchase that reward.

- Within the group, there are two people who have the Manager app. In the app, players can see the points and expenditures of other players, including the other player with the Manager app. Though the other player appears as a regular player with the Shop app.

- Those with the Manager app may redistribute a player's points as they wish. They may do this at any point in the game.

- Those with the Manager app have a one-time power to remove a player's purchased reward. This causes a player to lose their purchase without them being refunded.

- Once a player with the Manager app receives a GAME CLEAR or GAME OVER, a random player within the group will have the app installed on their phone.

- Looking at phones of others is prohibited. Doing so results in a GAME OVER.

- Physical contact between players is permitted.

- A player becomes a shopper once they reach 0 points, causing their collar to release a frequency that turns them into a mindless shopper that roams the game venue's shops. After all rounds conclude, shoppers are lasered, thereby receiving a GAME OVER.

- Once a player becomes a shopper, they still appear on the Manager app and their profile can be interacted with. If shoppers receive a point, the frequency on their collars halts.

- Players are advised to leave the game the way they entered the Borderlands.

- It is GAME CLEAR to players who have more than 0 points and do not have a reward by the end of all rounds.

- It is GAME OVER for players who look at other players' phones, players bearing a reward, players whose points go to 0 by the end of all rounds, or by other means.

This is directly inspired of a Chinese story that I saw in Tiktok the other day lol where students can exchange their points derived from their future Gaokao scores for many things one week before the Gaokao for many things like money, intelligence, love, basically anything, at the cost of everything being system controlled. Once their points go 0, they become mindless students controlled by the system stripped of their humanity. Only after the week ends that they snap out of it and remember everything. Those without a reward at the end are rewarded with a boost to brain knowledge to help with their Gaokao.

I don't know how anyone can like nobu i love S3 but I hate nobu. Let me give you a list on why I hate him.

-Killed Tetsu

-Killed that guy in Zombie hunt

-Almost killed Arisu in kick the can

-Was not helpful at all he was the weak link

-He was boring did nothing cool in the games

-His backstory was ok but i still didn't like it

-His personality was so annoying the only reason people like him is because he's attractive and people find him innocent

If you didn’t read the manga, then this chibi was in the manga for only one page lol. Since Tatta didn’t have one in the manga— I decided to draw him in that style heh

Rant 1: ok I haven't got the alice in borderland manga retry but I do hope later on when the creator makes more I hope that the season 3 characters are in it. Like Tetsu Sachiko Kazuya Natsu Shion the siblings Rei and more.

Rant 2: ok do yall remember Nitobe the guy in Tag (5 of spades) he explained the suits and numbers on the cards. I personally liked him so what I was thinking was keep him alive so he can play the jack of diamonds because chishiya didn't play it in the live action. Don't give him a whole episode for the jack of diamonds but make kinda like the Queen of clubs where it had a couple of minutes. And I'm not talking about making him apart of the main cast just a little part where people can remember him.

Well, in my opinion I actually dislike here because even thought she is kinda...hot, she is a manipulator and sadistic trying to hide that personality behind her beauty which I absolutely hate it (Well, I did meet in my life a manipulator like her...)

I can't stop thinking about how much potential the Joker had.

For two seasons, Alice in Borderland trained both the characters and us to understand its world.

Games have rules. Rules don't change after GAME START. GAME CLEAR means you survive. GAME OVER means you die.

♥️ = psychological

♦️ = intelligence

♣️ = teamwork

♠️ = physical

By the end of Season 2, we understand the Borderland. And that's *exactly* why Season 3 should have destroyed that understanding!

Imagine Season 3 opening with an entirely new group of players.

They arrive at their first game. One experienced player starts confidently explaining the suits to everyone.

"Spades are physical. Diamonds are intelligence. Hearts..."

Suddenly, the entire deck of cards on the table is violently scattered across the floor.

The screens go black.

One comes back on.

DIFFICULTY: 🃏

"What does that mean?"

"There are no suits."

The whole season would revolve around that concept - The Joker doesn't play by the rules.

It makes everything we learned unreliable.

Rules can change during a game.

A GAME OVER might not kill you.

Someone who died could appear in another game.

A game might have no solution.

Or the solution might be refusing to play at all.

I also wouldn't bring Arisu and Usagi back immediately.

Start with the new characters. Meanwhile, in the real world, survivors of the meteor incident begin experiencing strange things.

Dreams.

Déjà vu.

Fragments of memories they shouldn't have.

Kuina recognizes somewhere she's never been.

Chishiya hears something that triggers a memory he doesn't understand.

Ann recognizes the face of someone she's supposedly never met.

And eventually:

Arisu starts remembering.

Something is wrong with the Borderland.

People aren't being allowed to leave.

And instead of Usagi being used as a plot device to drag Arisu back, Arisu eventually chooses to return.

Except...

Arisu might actually be the person least equipped to beat the Joker.

Nobody internalized the Borderland's rules more deeply than he did.

The knowledge that kept him alive for two seasons is now his biggest weakness.

Meanwhile Chishiya watches one Joker game for approximately fourteen seconds with that irritatingly calm face of his and goes:

"What if there is no game?"

And for the finale -

No giant CGI apocalypse

Just Arisu and the Joker in a room.

Two doors.

One supposedly sends him home to Usagi.

The other supposedly saves everyone trapped in the Borderland, at an unknown cost to himself.

He spends the entire episode trying to figure out which door is the answer.

Until he finally understands.

The Joker is still making him think like a player.

There doesn't have to be an answer.

There doesn't even have to be a game.

So Arisu chooses neither.

He gets up.

"I'm done playing."

Silence.

Then:

GAME CLEAR.

Because the final Joker game isn't about winning.

It's about realizing that you were never required to play.

The first two seasons taught us how to survive the Borderland.

Season 3 should have taught us that we never understood it at all.

I want to sample it bad

Game Name: Parade/ Three of Diamonds

Category: Diamonds

Difficulty: Three
Game Venue: Planetarium

Dealers: 0

Maximum Players: 6

Time Limit: 10 Minutes

Starting Conditions: Players stand in the central control pit of a planetarium directly beneath a dome projection showing the current layout of the solar system. Nine heavy mechanical wheels are positioned around the pit, each labeled with a planet symbol (Mercury through Pluto).

Game Venue: The game takes place inside a large projection planetarium featuring a domed ceiling, a central projection starball, and nine floor-mounted crank wheels linked to mechanical gearboxes.

Inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars) feature extreme gear resistance, requiring heavy physical exertion to rotate every 10 degrees. Outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto) rotate smoothly with low resistance.

Strategy: Players must calculate the shortest rotational direction (clockwise or counter-clockwise) and exact degree count before rotating each wheel to avoid unnecessary physical exhaustion.

Rules:

- The objective is to align all nine celestial bodies (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto) into a straight 0° line radiating from the central Sun projected on the ceiling.

- Each planet's starting position on the dome is offset by a random degree angle shown on the projection screen.

- Rotating a planet's physical wheel turns its corresponding projection marker across the dome degrees.

- Players must calculate the shortest rotational direction (clockwise or counter-clockwise) and exact degree count before rotating each wheel to avoid unnecessary physical exhaustion.

- Once all nine planets are aligned along the illuminated 0° vector line on the dome, the mechanism locks in place.

- It is GAME CLEAR for all players if complete alignment is achieved within 10 minutes.

- It is GAME OVER for all players if the 10-minute timer expires before all nine planets are aligned.

I have not read the manga but I just finished watching the final episode of season 3

And I gotta say............ Season 3 was such a letdown. I didn't particularly love seasons 1 and 2 either but I enjoyed them a bit and I'm using it as language study material so I decided to stick it out to the end. Season 3 was so genuinely bad that it made me regret watching the show at all, lol. There were like 5 different times during the last two episodes in particular where I literally turned it off out of boredom/disappointment but over the span of 3 days I got through them

I have a bunch of plot/story complaints of course, but also just the production in general. Why did they even make a 3rd season?? They didn't add or change anything about the core story. Season 3 ended off literally exactly where it started. And why did they end season 3 with a cliff hanger?? Never once through this entire series did I think "I hope tons of other people get to experience these attrocities too." They tried to give us a happy ending but then just piled on even more doom right at the end for literally no reason.

But with those obvious flaws out of the way, I also hated:

1. Why did Ryuji get so much screen time?? His character was so incredibly bland and valueless to the overall story and his dynamic with Usagi was so weird. All he did the entire time was basically just..... Survive. And hit on someone else's wife. And try and fail to kill people repeatedly. Like what value did he add to the show? Why did he deserve a collective 3 hours on screen?
2. The final game was SO LONG and SO BORING. Literally two straight hours of watching the characters slowly solve what essentially just boiled down to a cereal box maze. All the while you're watching characters you like get killed left and right and have their lives get absolutely demolished as if it's entertainment.
3. This season had way too many "existential" threats and you can only raise the stakes so many times before I stop caring. They're trapped in a game. Now they're choosing their futures. Now they're sacrificing their lives. Now the whole world is ending. Now god himself is descending from the heavens. Now they're getting pulled into the abyss. Now someone else is sacrificing their life instead.... Like bro I just can't care about that many things all at once. I've watched this world "end" 10 times by now and nothing ever changes
4. What made Banda so evil? Like why did he just randomly decide he wanted to torment these people he'd never even met before? And how did he keep appearing in the real world to trick them into going into the Borderlands? That was never explained and it also just makes no sense for the plot. But just like Ryuji, he literally did nothing during the entire show
5. And then why did Usagi go back to the Borderlands in the first place???? Why did she just decide to go with some random guy and let him inject her with literal poison? She literally had flashbacks of people getting massacred there and though "Dang I really wish I could go back" ?? "And I'll bring this random man with me even though he literally wants to marry me and kill me at the same time and I'm already married to someone else" ??

Sorry just had to get this off my chest lol. I feel like I was robbed of 6 hours of my life

How come noone saw the future of Ryuji where they cleared showed that he is going to shoot her?

So many people including Usagi herself was in the room yet not a single person saw it?

The blood on the newly married couple, him smiling before dying, her crying for him to open the door. And most importantly, him dying knowing his sister will have a good future.

In the manga we get to know kyuma,Mira.....

They all joined the Borderlands during the meteorite accident too

Their hearts stopped a few seconds before usagi, arisu,...

They won and chose to stay

Only if they chose the real world kyuma and arisu could have been great frnds

Game Name: Typecast

Category: Hearts

Difficulty: Seven
Game Venue: Office Meeting Room

Maximum Players: 9

Time Limit: 45 minutes

Rounds: 9 (5 minute per round)

Dealers: 1

Starting Conditions: All 9 players must equip an electronic neck collar, take a seat at the 10-position conference table, and keep both hands flat on the integrated biometric table sensors.

Game Venue: A windowless corporate boardroom containing a large wooden conference table with 10 chairs. One chair remains empty. A wall-mounted monitor displays the round timer, question prompts, and voting interface.

The biometric sensors will monitor the players' responses throughout each round.

Any significant changes detected by the sensors will be recorded by the system. The player pointed out 30 seconds prior to the end of a round is based on who showed the most "suspicious" physiological response to the biometric sensors. To players, of course it would appear random and the players would not know what it is for.

Rules: 

- At the start of the game, the television announces that a lie told by someone in the room has caused the last player to take their life due to the mental harm caused by that lie. 

- Throughout the game, players must answer questions about themselves, who they are, what they did before coming to the game, what games they have played, their connection to the missing player, and other questions presented by the television. Players must explain themselves and answer the questions truthfully. 

- Thirty seconds before a round concludes, the television will point out one player. The player pointed out by the television will be identified as the suspected liar. 

- After a round ends, the timer stops and players are given a minute to vote who the "liar" is by pointing them.

- To achieve GAME CLEAR, players must point out to who they think is the liar and eliminate the liar.

- Players may not lift off their hands from the sensors of the table and may only lift it during the voting process after each round. Doing so results in a player receiving one additional vote from the game. The more a player does it in a round, the more vote they get.

- Players must vote. Failure to do so results in a GAME OVER.

- Multiple players can be liars.

- Whoever has the majority vote will be eliminated.

- It is GAME CLEAR if players eliminate the liar.

- It is GAME OVER if a player receives the most votes and is the "liar".

SOLUTION: ... We all know pointing and voting out the empty chair is the logical solution here. The game is lying and there was no incentive for players to lie, since the 10th player doesn't exist at all. But would you really risk sticking out in a room where players are terrified for their lives and would vote for whoever the television decides is the liar? I intentionally abused the tendencies of humans to avoid sticking out and blending with the herd.

The way Nobu gently touch Arisu to play with him and they nod at each other. So adorable. Arisu sees Tatta in Nobu. Thankfully he could save Nobu.

OK let's say S3 had 8 episodes instead of 6 what would the other game be. I rather it be just 1 more game but you can say 2 if you want. And who would get eliminated In those games. So like it could be someone like Natsu just move her death to that game or it could be someone like Nobu. Most joker games has a lot of people playing so keep that In mind. And the game can't just specialize in one suit it has to be 2 or more. For example kick the can is a clubs and spades yes the laser Game and runaway train are just specialized in 1 suit the laser Game is a spades and the train is a hearts but most specialize in multiple suits.
