His best friend got trapped with an order to have sex within a very short timeframe and Nobuaki responds by punching him out and then forcing his girlfriend to rape his unconscious friend. Yousuke then dies, amongst almost half the class who broke the latest rule to not to do anything 'unnecessary', which was crying, deduced by Nobuaki.

Horror fans that liked King's Game will also be most likely be into Another because of its similar over-the-top death scenes, classroom setting, and mysterious curse that the cast has to figure out and prevent before more people die. There are anime that are so bad that they become fun but this one isn't one of those. In this modern society, a new kind of "illness" is striking young boys and girls; loneliness, disbelief, and outrage push this generation to get more or more attached to the Internet and technologies. All English episode titles are taken from Crunchyroll. Founded in 2001 as the first anime & manga recommendation database. Teruaki tries to call someone for help but Natsuko catches him and takes his phone too. Nobuaki is ordered to kiss Honda Natsuko. I personally liked Mirai Nikki more, but fans of one should try the other too. Nobuaki and Chiemi are the only ones left. They both have a very dark atmosphere as most horror anime do. An entire high school class of 32 people receive a message on their cellphones from a person known only as the "King." Let me just say if you don't look it up beforehand, you're going to feel like an idiot for not bailing when you had the chance.

[7] It ran for 12 episodes. A popular, talented student named Misaki suddenly died, and the ramifications of that incident have caused each third year class since then to live in fear. There are no custom lists yet for this series.

The final two books, Ousama Game: Annihilation and Ousama Game: Abyss, have not yet been adapted into manga.

He may make a mean cocktail, but his true profession is to play the role of arbiter: a judge who determines whether or not a soul is worthy of reincarnation. If you like games, murder and survival. Aimi defends Natsuko was just scared and they were still friends, giving Natsuko +4 and herself +1. As the 24 hour deadline approaches Nobuaki waits to die only for Natsuko to appear, confess her love and kiss him with seconds to spare. His indecision shakes the very foundation of the games and raises the biggest question of all: who is fit to judge the dead? She attempts to delete the virus, but is punished for attempting to stop the game. Every student in class, who all received the text, think Nobuaki is joking. Natsuko gathers everybody at Bunko Park for the next order, where the class takes turns by seat order to break their fingers; the right fingers are worth +1 point each and left fingers -1 each, with the option to pass. You want to fix it somewhat? After transferring to a new class, Nobuaki, wants nothing more than to be left alone. This is bad, very bad.

(Please note, Ousama Game is not a recreational drug and is illegal in all states.) As Nobuaki scrambles to save his classmates the death toll starts to climb slowly but surely. There is no discussion yet for this series. There is the current one and a number of episodes are dedicated to the game that Nobuaki survived. In the afterlife, Nobuaki is reunited with Chiemi and his other dead friends, who had waited for him. Riona reveals she knows about Natsuko's late classmate Ria, who was also collecting the characters from the victims.

It adds a bucket load of characters, most of whom die in seconds, and shows the complete lack of character concistency in Nobuaki. The student who rolled the dice and those they named would all be punished. A film based on the novel was released in 2011, and directed by Norio Tsuruta.

Both have some connection to modern technology. One of the students, Satou Yuuichi, receives a punishment text for breaking a rule and immediately bleeds to death.

Doesn't help that they try and present them in situations that are supposed to be hard to solve, like, should we all glue our asses together like the message says or let someone die. Ria uses the data collected between her and Yousuke and explains to Nobuaki the cause of the deaths was hypnosis from a computer virus linked to the King's Game, taking the power of suggestion to the extreme. People are different so there is a good chance that I will not like what you love. Teruaki, desperate not to die, attempts to rape Natsuko. First show what he did in the past and show how he struggled with it. You are watching it in the right order like this and it will only get better!!! She flips in the second episode and goes full phycho in such a way that other phychpath will run away in terror when she approaches. Both add in heaping doses rape fantasy, and attempt to portray violence in a shocking way. A new order was given in which one student has to roll a die, and name the number of students equal to the number rolled. Extremely bad. I don't like the word cringe, but it aptly describes this. These animes are for you. As the only survivor, Riona drags Nobuaki's corpse to the beach and commits suicide by drowning herself with Nobuaki's dead body. [5] Anime Limited have licensed the series for a UK release.[9]. Then, a single text message from someone calling themselves the "King" is sent to everyone in class. The remaining 10 students are given an order to race to Mt. Natsuko realises she was instructed to have sex with Teruaki Nagata and panics. It is very hard to get into an anime and feel for the characters when there is so much stupidity on your screen. The theme song of the film is "Amazuppai Haru ni Sakura Saku" by Berryz Kobo and Cute. As an anime … Nobuaki follows to save him but fails to do so and Masatoshi drowns. Nobuaki has flashbacks to the first time he played the game and how his classmates immediately turned on each other after realising the game was real. I'm not telling you that you should hate it too, I'm telling you why I didn't like it.

Things look hopeless but with every death a clue appears that may prove a way out. Evil or Live focuses on the "evils" of internet addiction, and a reform school that physically abuses kids to break them of their addiction. Both attempt to be edgy and serious, but come across as unintentionally funny.

After tasing him, she scolds him for his lack of resolve, stating she isn't actually king but wants to enjoy the King's Game, which will be difficult to do if Nobuaki is so boring, and beat the King. In both games a female character is ordered to sleep with one of the other students. The Hope Arc will serve as the "perfect ending" of the story.

Ria developed an anti-virus that could eliminate all the Kings in the network by taking advantage of a bug in the program. In between the overarching mystery are the most retarded deaths you've ever seen. Least favorite anime ever as of writing this review. Riona then warms him up and Nobuaki regains his resolve to continue. The animation was pretty decent actually but the story and characters were so bad that watching it became a real chore.

The storyline, psychological development, music, artwork, basicaly everything is better in Mirai Nikki. Where are all the adults? Both have protagonists who have a head-start on what's going on, and want to help people.

However, while Another shows the classmates dying randomly, King’s Game is about a high-stakes game where the class has to follow a specific order or they die. Ria calls Nami stupid for killing herself even though her punishment wasn't death. With just 5 students remaining, can Nobuaki put a stop to the murderous King's Game once and for all?

Meanwhile, Natsuko picks up the phone Nobuaki dropped. Also in both shows the use of smartpones is very prominent due to the nature of the games. He decides to give himself the order to protect Mizuki's life, to make her feel better.

On the lengthy train ride, Nobuaki has another flashback where he deduced the King is someone in his class, and his classmate Nami, who had to give herself an order, takes that advice and orders herself to touch the King. [2] The opening theme is "Feed the Fire" by Coldrain[6] and the ending theme is "Lost Paradise" by Pile. Then it is Teruaki's turn and he breaks one finger on his right hand and his entire left hand, giving Natsuko -5.

But one student, Nobuaki Kanazawa, is determined to put a stop to the murderous King's Game, once and for all. It aired from October 5 to December 21, 2017. In general it is the more the anime pisses me off the more I swear so watch out for the low scored ones. Darwin's Game is like kings game, its a ongoning series (as of 3/8/2020) and also as more elements to it. The messages contain orders that the students must obey, or they risk the punishment of death. It is animated by Seven. Kaname Sudo, an ordinary high school student, receives an invitation email to try a mysterious app called "Darwin's Game." Story.

Both add in heaping doses rape fantasy, and attempt to portray violence in a … Wimpy and crazy, but connected.

Later, Nobuaki again convinces everyone to stick together to survive, but is dismissed by Natsuko insisting there can only be one survivor like in the previous King's games.

Both are about a mobile game forcing the players to play with their lives on the line. Art: Art is fine, it does what it needs to do and that is to show a visual story. These characters have none, and as per horror story bull, they also seem to have cattails for brains. After a heated discussion culminating in Toshiyuki Abe threatening to kill Chiemi, Naoya steps up to roll the die.

Ria, a mysterious girl in class, states she is the King and asks if the class will kill her, since that would end the game. If you liked Ousama Game(king's game), then you'll really enjoy this one. Meanwhile, in present time, Mizuki gets a new phone and Nobuaki, Kenta, and her finally arrive at the bricked-up gate of Yonaki village. He discovers a few notes from what appears to be Chiemi's father and a picture with both the name Chiemi and Natsuko. Kanazawa Nobuaki has transferred to a high school far from where he used to live. Everyone in class gets a message on their phone, giving them an order. He’s drawn to one enigmatic girl named Mei Misaki, a quiet student who wears an eye patch and warns him about getting involved with her, and continues to seek her out against the pleas of his classmates.
