| Yeah, this whole game was far from over. They got that "final trial" this episode but feels like the administrator is playing mind games with the cast by setting the timer and votes. So yeah, this anime tests the casts' mentally and physically. At least Yuuki survived that painful attack. |
 |
| Fantastic episode the tension was incredible especially that final trial with the voting. |
| “I like you. I’ll make an exception and save you.” Oh this was gay as FUCK. So Yuki fell in love with ol girl off that heart to heart? Did she not sense the fact Mishiro killed her own sister? I didn’t expect that sort of twist, I mean I’m always for Yuri and won’t complain but I didn’t expect it there lmao. Generational haters to lovers coming up? I feel bad for Chie, but she really didn’t do anything so if it came down to it, easy to vote her off. |

| Well I think that wraps up the Scrap Building game. The tension in the voting section is high, I was kinda nervous tbh. I thought that Mishiro will get voted out due to the things she did in the game, but instead it was Chie who got the highest vote. Well i guess thats the true ending because Chie honestly didn't do anything in the game. And you just gotta praise Yuuki's intelligence, she already knew how the paper works from the start. And Mishiro's apology to Yuuki at the end it's just her facing the truth that she's not strong enough. The ending surprised me about how they presented Mishiro's anger with the soundtrack and animation. Mishiro's dedication of beating Yuuki will just be getting bigger as she even install prosthetic of her right arm, I believe she will make a comeback and the next time they both met it will be war. Very psychological game for me unlike the first game. |
| Also yeah, Yuki is literally a veteran. It's her 10th game, why are they still questioning her? 😭 I kinda like this different approach of closed room execution in voting trial. Instead of: It becomes: ---which is still effective in telling the aftermath. Though, I'm not sure why the votes are skewed differently. I'm still not sure how the votes called out, if that person eventually voted out for execution. If original papers from the bag holds more power (counts two in tie), then... |
| The vote twist was surprising, Chie didn't make it in the end. I think it's incredibly interesting not knowing if everyone was being truthful about their votes. |
| Yuki was pretty cool saving Mishiro's life like that. But I wonder how much Yuki's genuine feelings were mixed in with her gambit for survival. She did have the whole voting mechanic figured out before Shiori did. I feel bad for Chie and her manager... I know the talking puppet said it'd be an instant death, but all that fluff looks brutal. Mishiro's tantrum was well done. Her wounded pride has her willing to re-enter the death games... It's a weird thought considering the stakes of the show, but i'll be glad to see her again. |

| guess that explains how they get there limbs back. wtf is this we've only seen girls play this game 🤣  |

| Seeing Chie's remains made me feel sad. It looks like she melted. The way the agent ran looking out for her implies that she cares for the player, interesting. Mishiro might show up again in the future. Im a bit annoyed by what she did to Yuki but I'll let it slide as long as we get more interesting games. Yuki also seems to want to yuri her. Love the aesthetics of this show its kinda unique. |
The manga and anime are quite different when it comes to expressions. I like the art direction and all, but it's a death game, character expressions really shouldn't be too stoic.    Even Yuki is more expressive   |

| @Cestlavie_ seeing the panel of mangga. I saw a lot of different between anime and mangga. Yuki to be honest feel so expressive like totally different version of yuki we saw on the anime. And especially at the end in outside of the abandoned buildings, we can see clearly that yuki shocked while the anime we saw a no emotion from the very start of the game until the time yuki save Mishiro. The mangga show that yuki have some kind of lust toward mishiro i think (i don't know what kind of word that match to the situation, just the word lust appears in my head). I think we can assume that the adaptation of anime is fully adapted from light novel instead mangga because it is clearly different from the panel given. |

The lightnovel still has the scene of Chie cursing at them. Which I think is kind of silly to remove |
| hmmm in the first game only 3 could make it out so they had to kill 1, now they have to vote 1. Not a fan of votes/selection taking out contestants instead of the game |
| "i like you" ?? damn i didn't know yuki would have feelings for her enemy |
| I guess this episode was meant to show you can't just be along for the ride in this game and actually have to be entertaining for the audience. Why would that girl want to risk her life again just to beat Yuki. Dumb. |
| The reaction of the agent running to Chies chamber was interesting. I wonder what their connection was. |

| Well, this episode is quite interesting, not only do we have the resolution of this 2nd game, but we finally get a bit more of info about the whole setting of this anime, and how this world works besides these deadly games. Yuki ended up liking Mishiro, somehow. And after all, Yuki would have saved her either way, even if she didn't apologize. Yuki put her life in danger to save Mishiro. In the end, every girl had to vote for the player they thought contributed the least for the game. Yuki ended up voting for all 4 of them, which means, her vote was random, considering the rules, since they would only count the vote they opened first. And this vote ended up being the decisive one, since the other 4 girls each voted on a different person. So Yuki's vote was a decisive one, and ended up being on Chie. Well, Chie did end up not doing much in the game, and if I'm not wrong, she never was the "lead" in any of the floors either. Even so, it's kind of crazy Yuki ended up liking Mishiro, when Mishiro just seems to be a sociopath, maybe even psychopath, like, she even killed her sister... Once again, the anime did amazingly with the atmosphere, and the way they revealed which girl was voted the most. Kotoha might have saved herself there by making Chie not vote for her. The end of the episode was the most interesting though, since the girls end up waiting for the "agents", and while I initially thought it was the agents behind the game, it does not seem that way, in the sense it seems it's their own agents. This is confirmed, by the fact that Mishiro's agent knew her and how difficult it was for her to apologize, and it was the one taking her to where they get their limbs reattached and their injures cured, by that process mentioned in the 1st episode. Chie's agent also seems to be quite worried about her, by the way she opened the box she was in, and how she ended up just "hugging" the white foam that was left from Chie, almost as she was mourning her death, which once again hints to the fact these agentes know these girls, probably the ones that take care of the logistics behind these games. Yuki's agent is quite similar to her too, if you notice. I wonder if it's someone related to her. By the end of the episode, it seems Mishiro now will continue to play those games, until she can defeat Yuki, so Yuki gained a rival I guess. I was not expecting that coming from this anime, considering the whole idea of these death games, but ok, I wonder if they have encountered between this game, and the one Yuki played in the 1st episode. With this bit of lore drop, I wonder if they'll continue this in the next game, because I feel like the setting for this anime is quite interesting. Really excited for next week's episode! This anime is certainly quite a surprised, and I?m glad I didn't drop it with the disturbing 1st episode, because it is an unsettling anime, but it ends up being quite inresting, due to how well they make us feel that sense of unsettling. |
| The agents reaction to Chie's remains....must feel fluffy. Good episode again. While I absolutely dig the tension, I still can't help but feel how this could've been even better by showing some actual gore. |

| Well it turned out there was something at the end, So far I've noticed these games are kinda flawed in the fact that so far the first two games we have seen have forced someone to die at the end of the game. The first one only three people could leave and this one they had to vote someone out to die. So it really feels like every game in the future may follow that path. I suppose maybe no one dying wouldn't be as entertaining for the watchers. But I guess they do want some level of censorship considering what Yuuki said before fighting the wolf. It was pretty obvious that Chie would be the one to get voted out, either her or Keito everyone else contributed some form of help and I mean hey at the end Mishiro was willing to apologise. Seems like she her pride isn't fully gone though so I imagine we may see her in a future game. We even got to see a bit more of the whole preservation treatment at the end, So I suppose they have like agents representing them who pick them up after each game. Maybe family members since Yuuki's one kinda looked like her. Yuuki's conviction for even saving Mishiro felt very random. I mean Yuuki I suppose has some sense of pride and competitiveness to her since she's trying to beat 99 games so I suppose maybe she saw some of herself in Mishiro perhaps. For now Im curious what the next game will be and what kinda players will be in the next one, I will say I personally enjoyed the first game more but I did really enjoy the scrap building game. Adding a wolf was really cool too. |
| Good ep Ngl, I didn't even expect Yuki to start liking Blonde all of a sudden. One minute ur on demon timing, but instead ur on angel timing. Even the beast never arrived to the hiding spot, which is kinda funny. Double wielding?? Not surprised that Brown hair died. Literally did nothing, but run her mouth. Didn't expect Blonde to apologize... Whatever drug that they hit Brown with was strong asl, like her whole body is gone. 9/10 |

I forgor, why did Mishiro vote against Chie?
| @RealNath The anime skip a bit of the logic there, but because she got saved she couldn't vote for Yuuki. She also felt empathy for Kotoha as both did the same mistake (tripping in the rope). So she decide to follow the instructions and vote for the one that did the less to help the game. Which was, mostly by being "lucky", Chie. Kotoha took the front and even took a mine because of that. Keito also lost the rock-paper-scissors and end up taking the lead twice (first at the start, then after Kotoha incident). So the one that end up doing the less was Chie in the end. |

| Only way Chie had most votes is if Chie voted either Mishiro or Yuki. From behaviour, it looked like she voted for Mishiro (was colder vs others when she came back) making the result a dice roll from Yuki's 4 papers. (both Yuki and only other person that voted for Chie, Mishiro used paper from the drawer, so weaker votes) Chie could of saved herself if either: - she voted for Kotoha (Mishiro's vote is weaker, so Kotoha would die at 2 strong votes) - she voted for Keito (Mishiro's vote is weaker, so Keito would die at 2 strong votes) - she didn't have bad luck with the 4 way paper that Yuki submitted |

| @Cestlavie_ I like the anime portrayal of Yuuki more than the manga one, as it aligns more with the impression I get from the novel on her character. Her being that expressive on the manga that feels weird to me. I did dislike they skipped Chie's reaction and shouting as she realizes she was picked. Imo it is a great emotional scene like with the saws in episode 1, her shouts liking affecting everyone else strongly as their choices lead to it, just like when Aoi was dying; |

| @Ahohite-killer I don't think we've seen a man at all, period. Except in a flashback in episode 1, which I find questionable as evidence. Maybe they don't exist. |

| @Cestlavie_ Holy shit, this is so much better. They actually have personalities and feel human in the manga, based on what I can tell from this single panel. Not the constant numbness the anime is. |
