I'll never get over Karube's death. He was the character that encouraged and fought alongside Arisu the whole way. Having him around made it feel like they could overcome anything, then he goes boom.
@@caseyw.6550 Yeah, the only useful thing chota did the whole time was the video recording, other than that, he basically farted at them at the beginning and basically became noisy dead weight after the first game. Karube was like the big bro that'd carry little bro Arisu through everything, but then.. 😭
it'd be so ironically bad if when someone dies they just returned to their normal daily life before being taken from the reality. If I were the Game Master I would do something like this bc every gamer is trying so hard to survive: betraying friends, killing people, destroying lives and friendship, like really the worst of the worse just to survive a day more but in the end if you die you just return to your timeline remembering everything you did and who betrayed you... I mean ironic, right?
Decided to rewatch it before next season comes out later this month and honestly forgot how heart wrenching the hide & seek game was. The writers did such an incredible job with this game in particular, with the lambs ending up being the ones hiding from the wolf but not for the usual reason. This whole show is hands down one of the greatest out there in the death game genre.
Saori had three whole days to prepare and it never once occured to her that maybe she should take off the work clothes and heels and put some athletic wear on? They were literally in a shopping mall.
I think the group was talking about when they first arrived and realized this game world they were sent to also had time flowing differently. All of the characters also mentioned that when they arrived is different from when she arrived, so we don't know if they were actually there for three days, it's only been one, or even longer than that. (ex. The main character and his friends just arrived to the world and found some rotten food after a short period of time). Because time flows differently there, I think she didn't have long before she was forced into a game. But yeah, she should've changed immediately after the first game they played together at least.
About the "goal" thing on the bus, it was literally painted among other grafiits. It was easy too miss because there were a lot of colors and shapes. It worked like an illusion. Besides, in the first game, arisu though it was a "joke", just like one of his games. He was more relaxed so it was easier for him to repair in such weird details (most of his games consisted in doing so). In the bus game, arisu had just lost his friends, was more tense and depressive and, again, the "goal" word was really well hidden.
Yeah, it's a bit hard for someone to pay attention when they're too busy grieving. And Arisu eventually did notice the word when he came back with the motorcycle.
It was also in English (idk if they mentioned him knowing English fluently) and with the graffiti usually drawn in weird shapes/colors it was probably harder to notice it at first.
@@llorell there was a japanese-english dictionary inside the bus. the graffiti is hard to notice if you aren’t looking for it but i feel like the dictionary should’ve made them search for something they can translate
Me: ahh. The game is lying. The wolf dies, since it’s a game about trust and betrayal. The person that decides to be selfish and keep the wolf betrays their friends, thinking they’ll survive. The woman will get the wolf and die. Karube and Chota: *boom* Me: *crying*
i think the game is cutomized for each group i mean the game is only revealed when everyone enters the room and the 3rd episode is the perfect example the description of the games says that the lambs have to hide from the wolf but it should be the opposite since the wolf is the only one who survives but in the end it was the lambs who were hiding and that wouldnt have happened if thet werent such good friends if there was any other player the game would have played the way it has so i belive the game master knows who is playing and tailors the game for them
Arisu noticed the fancy car, knew its exact length, the emergency exit map, and figured out the building layout for the first game, but didn't see the giant "GOAL" painted on the bus 😭😭
Yep , that's what I thought too. But I guess everyone thinks the game will be tougher than it actually is and therefore overanalyze things and missed the whole point of the game with the obvious clue
I think the reason for that is because he was still trying to find his will to continue on after losing two people in his life who saw the good in him and his worth in the world. His head was not completely in it because he was still on the edge. He got the courage to go but he also was willing to lose his life and be with his friends. It was this game that pushed him on as well as Usagi. She was someone who saw how much worth he has and how smart he is and it reminded him of his friends and he was willing to do whatever he needed to keep her alive and not lose anyone else who believe in him just as much as he believes in them
I think that Arisu still in the middle of the depression over lost of his best friends so his focus is a little bit off. Plus, the GOAL was paint on the bus like a grafiti on the oppiside of the bus. I dont think anyone would realize that
@@syabilaazri7834 actually no, that’s what makes it worse. If you watch again, we find out GOAL was written on the same side they enter. It just didn’t occur to him until he saw it and then realized it was right there in front of them, in front of ALL of them when they entered the bus
Yeah--I thought the Heart Games were supposed to be ''tests'' of mental/emotional Strength at first. (Playing mind games but not actually killing anyone by default)
i think karube really wanted arisu to survive while the IT guy was still on a dopamine high from losing his virginity the previous night. that poor girl had successfully screwed her way to the top, only to die in some bushes with culty mcrazipants trying to pray his oedipus complex away. big sad.
I've just started to read the manga. In the manga, Chisiya in the 5 spades game chose the top left corner so he can see most of the situation downstairs and right side of the building. It's also mentioned that they heard a door opened when the tagger enter the arena and Chisiya has expected that the tagger could be coming out from the safe room. As he couldn't see the tagger and the safe room from his position, he knows that the safe room is on the left side of the building some level bellow him (it's different from the adaptation I think). Pretty good strategy and got to say that the author of the manga is very smart.
To be fair, the 'Life' doors really had a Cardcaptor Sakura kind of look - so it would have made sense to people who never read that series, but yet still new enough about mangas, to say 'Hey. Isn't that Cardcaptor Sakura ? I'm not sure, since I never read it, but I remember seeing quite similar images in my local manga libraries. Oh, we have a playing card ? OK, then. I guess the card is supposed to hint to that girl who either is Sakura or looks a lot like her'. I probably would have opened that door ...
@Spell Check me too tbh. I would give up first round. I can't even understand the multiplication table and I'm already in my senior year in highschool how tf would i see the patterns and shit death games have.
rewatching this and i just realized for the 5 of clubs game, the attackers would die either way bc if the players werent able to complete the challenge then the building will explode while they are in it
@anon1077 Both teams had 20 mins either the duo kills them in 20 & the time stops or the either get to the safe room & hit the buttons or if either team fail to complete the game in 20 min they all die.
Actually, if the taggers successfully killed all the players before the time ran out, the bomb switches off automatically. It was explained in the manga.
@@tonytan5945 no but what if they didn't kill all players, but at the same time the players weren't able to press the button either? does that mean they all die??
The horse mask killers: will die if they fail to basically kill everyone Also the horse mask killers: *Walking slow as hecc, reloading slow as hecc while walking slow as hecc and being chill*
They were not trained for circumstances like these. BESIDES they were slow and cautious because they were scared just like the other players. If they were to defuse the bomb the taggers die. Woudnt that scare you?
Japan’s horror movies are so incredibly creative and smart, I love how much attention you bring to them. It’s also amazing because the way the movies are setup allows for smart characters and decisions.
I came back just for this comment because I just finished season 2 now it make sense, why they had to survive/win all the games so that.. they can come back to their world ALIVE.
@@jelahtin Ann died and she was still able to come back. A lot of them shoudlve been dead too but werent lol? So what does it really take to be able to come back to life IRL?
Whoever wrote this Alice in Borderland manga is smart. I'm telling you it's not easy to create puzzles with well explained or manifested solutions in a story plot.
You think he created all these puzzles from scratch? LOL The puzzle games I've seen before are obvious (because I've seen them before), but the ones I think he made up appear to be straght up bullshit.
OK but the “loser” trio is such a trope that I love! It’s usually a group of close friends that just have to stick together because they make each other stronger.
yeah and it would be a big shame if 2 of the close friends were to die right in front of the one friend leaving the friend alone with only sadness and trauma in a very deadly universe where you are forced to play brutal games for your survival haha am i right?
A tip for anybody in a stressful situation: it's hard to stay composed when there's a lot of pressure on you, but it's impossible if you don't try. This has changed my life for the better, remember it.
@@harshbhatia1444 I like that Chishiya isn't about being smart. He's about being far distance from the action, broad viewing what the details are even of things that aren't directly mentioned (the bigger picture). This is why so many people like Chishiya because we'd like to pretend that we are that person , but not me. I like to pretend i'm the King of Spades. Unkillable.
This show is actually a live adaption of an anime and I can't believe I'm saying this but, this is the first time where I saw a live adaption that gave the anime justice.
Alright, I'm going to say something about this video. Arisu and his group know nothing about the "Game" and only know what the woman told them. (theyll die if they don't participate) When you are explaining this from the very first game, you know everything about how the system works. As a analyst, you know everything when Arisu does not. Arisu and his group of friends literally just entered the "Game" and know nothing about how it works, this means they are only able to use the knowledge they have available to them; which is what they know. For example, Arisu has studied vehicles and is a pro and experienced gamer. He uses his knowledge to solve the problem. Furthermore, Arisu and his group of friends, are in a mental state of curiosity, and fear because, like I said, THEY KNOW NOTHING. You need to take in the fact that they only have the available knowledge and understand their mental fortitude to this unknown and dangerous world.
@Llencares Gaming “c.. can we do it again” HAHABSHDK man i wonder how this’ll play out in the live action. also what the heck she’s so cool!!! i can’t wait!!!!!
Not really, when u survive a lot of games (Spoiler alert) you can get free from that world or become one of the kings or queens of the cards, like that girl that shows at the end that is in fact the queen of hearts.
Either you would be desperate to get out and put yourself before anyone, you'd have to hunt for your own food, cook, keep good hygiene, get clean clothes, and on top of that survive other people. The first girl we're introduced through has already figured out 3 days in that's you have to care about yourself more than others to survive. As the games get harder you can see that everyone is tempted to sacrifice others thinking it would give them a personal gain. If there is a way out, by the time you've escaped you're either a flexible person and will need very little mental help to get your life back together or you'll go mad and have to stay in a mental hospital for the rest of your life.
For the last game, throwing the corpse in the fire first would be one of the stupidest things to do. Ofc it’s an easy solution with hindsight but if she didn’t kill herself you would be removing all the possible evidence. The killer could have left an imprint of hair or from a ring etc, destroying your only piece of evidence straight away is stuoid
those kinds of things would take FOREVER to analyse, its faster and more likely to be her that committed su1c1d3 instead, otherwise it wouldn't have such little time for a murder
@@maskidle he most likely saw it too like most of us, but having no clue what the game's mechanic's was or what the game actually was, anyone could easily dismiss that detail as just graffiti.
@@maskidleHe probably saw it, he might didn't realize what's the meaning of it, it's the game of clubs, they even prepare a water bottle half a way, the "Goal Sign" is not the only thing that make Alice realize that the bus was actually a goal line.... it was the distance, if they ran further away the distance would just keep increasing to no end, but the moment he was going back to the bus the distance would decrease until it reaches zero and the Goal Sign on the bus seal the Deal. I bet almost everyone who said he didn't see the Goal Sign didn't even realize that the Bus was actually the Goal, even if they are, they probably thought the goal was to get the Bus running.
@@arruhunahya7593 To be fair the only reason why Arisu didn't pay much attention to the "Goal" graffiti to the bus is because it's said to be a game of "club", a game about strength.
@@clownsoftheearth nah I feel like Arisu has the character to compete in difficult games. Even if Karube is strong and all, he doesn’t give off that main character vibe.
@Cinema Summary people be saying you would never die in these situations but in reality you take days on these vids not minutes like in reality you would have to
I’m surprised that for the first game, you didn’t mention they could try throwing objects into the rooms to see if it’s safe. The name tag that the woman threw was lasered, meaning it’ll hit anything unrecognized, even if it’s not alive. Since the girl died in the same way, it can be assumed that the same rules apply to those rooms.
Bro you could clearly see that even on the id , the head was lasered so throwing objects would not be an option as it only recognises faces and aims for the head
It’s not “Shady Guy” it’s Chishiya (Cheshire) like the Cat. The names of the characters correspond with Alice in Wonderland. Arisu is Alice, Usagi means Rabbit
@@rasheesaalea7805 the others aren’t so obvious and I’d be guessing. Kuina - transgender who keeps something in her mouth, blue caterpillar Mira - secret GM red queen An - forensic expert, white queen Aguni - the soldier co-leader. March Hare? Guy with the tattoos - Jaberwock? Niragi - sniper dude, Dormouse? Hatter and Aguni could also be the Walrus and Carpenter, leading a bunch of oysters to their death.
I cried when the wolf game's instructions had finally came clear. That the sheeps are hiding and the wolf must find them. Arisu's friends wanted him to win, so they had to hide.
I just rewatched this. You can beat all the games without anyone dying, even the wolf and lamb game. If they take turns removing the headgear in that game, then no one has to die. There is a chance the helmet might explode if tampered with, but that's a risk everyone has to take. To equalize the risk, they could form a circle where the person behind tries to remove the helmet of the person before him. Anyway, when Arisu tried to remove his, it didn't explode, so I think the show was telling us that was a possibility. The last game as well could've been solved by the forensic cop without anyone dying.
I know I'm way late, but having read the manga and watched the show, this is far from confirmed. There are plenty of theories as to how the seven of hearts could be won without everyone dying, but no official answer.
@@soIatidonot rly. the channel gives us theoretical answers assuming we "don't know" the outcome. unless they break down how they do their research for this or solve the game before they get the answer from the show, most of their solutions are unreliable because of the 4th wall effect
I figured out the game at the Beach before I knew the outcome, just using the deduction of the rules of the games up to that point. Heart games play with people's emotions, and the biggest emotional blow would make a surviving player feel like a moron. So, in that case, turn everyone against each other so they disregard the corpse. The game's rules said to identify the witch and throw their body in the fire, not that you had to kill them (though throwing a living person in the fire would kill them anyway lol), so I thought the most devastating blow would be that the witch committed suicide. Watching through, my guess was proven right.
Japanese horror movie: Victims of circumstance have to find a way to not have a good ending, but to survive Western horror movie: People do stupid things and definitely deserve their death, and if not the death feels flat and unjustified
I mean it feels like western movies just like have a same formula OK here’s what happens there’s our protagonist a douche bag character a helpful character side characters they try to make jokes and other stuff to make it seem like they’re bonding together but really just feels really flat and uninteresting and then they die one by one except for the characters that the movie wants to keep around I mean you can almost Tell who’s going to live and who is going to survive just by looking at them for like a few minutes or just watching a movie for a few minutes I mean sometimes when I watch a western movie I can like guess the whole plan and I am 99% correct most of the time and just feels boring Like they make stupid decisions and shit and I just want you to get all mad sometimes I rage because I’m like what the hell are you doing idiot are you wanting to get yourself killed like the hell are making it’s like the movie wants you to get mad and that’s how it keeps you together to keep watching it the only reason I continue watching western movies is so that I can get some satisfying Deaths
japanese horror movies: something doesn’t feel right in there let’s leave western horror movies: somethings wrong in that room let’s go in and kill ourselves
It burns less energy therefore it's more practical as That way you save energy. At the Same Time The Bicycle Is More Reusable And Can Be Used Without Fuel. The Problem Is That Is Uses Energy From YOU Aka. It Uses A Lot Of Energy From You.
The badge in the beginning that got laserd, I would personally used that as confirmation in the first game. If it got zapped I'd go the other way, it's only a one go but still would have worked
Behavioural psychologist here! Fun fact: people who lie actually tend to make MORE eye contact. It is because of this false perception that looking away is something liars do, so people tend to compensate for that :)
@@justme7410 also true! One of the harder things about micro-aggressions is that there can be a lot of similarities between the cause of the behaviour. When looking at the ones related to lying , a lot of them are close to (for example :) ) anxiety
I think it is important to know how a person acts in normal situations and without lying. And then you can see changes in behaviour that might indicate that they are lying.
This would be a pretty neat RPG game actually. Huge, abandoned city and you get stuff by doing games. Outside of the games, you have to kill to survive.
And??? Other games in the Manga (examples: 5♣️♥️♦️, 6♠️♣️♥️ or 7♣️♦️ etc.) doesn't have games shown in the manga. Means we could get an Alice in Borderland game and play as a character who will complete these unadapted games.
Its basically how Resident Evil safe zones work depending on difficulty. On Not A Hero (one of the hardest difficulties), monsters are able to break down the safe room doors. Same applies here. Since the tag game is one of the harder challenges, the killer ignores the safe zone rules and goes in anyway
Fans have a strong theory that the seven of hearts game actually has a solution where nobody dies. The solution was if a sheep cut the wolf’s wire, the wolf’s collar wouldn’t explode. Then the wolf would give the wolf status to another sheep and a third sheep would cut that wolf’s wire, the cycle repeats until 3 players have their wires cut and the final person has the wolf role. The problem is, the players wouldn’t do this because of one fatal flaw; the players involved *(Arisu’s group)* saw it was a hearts game, not a clubs game. The game was designed by Mira (the lady that was on the screens at the end, and represents the “Queen of Hearts”) and was specifically intended for Arisu and his friends to play. The reason why this was impossible was because of the circumstances, namely the players’ relationships. Since Shibuki (the white dress lady) distrusted and didn’t know Arisu and his friends well enough, coupled with the fact that she understood the rules that supposedly only one victor would live, she made cooperation impossible. Had there only been Arisu, Chota and Karube as the players, of course they would all try to cooperate. But that’s why the game was hearts rather than clubs, because Mira knew Shibuki would not try to cooperate and instead opt for a guaranteed survival. Mira created a clubs game but then labelled it “hearts” and intended it for Arisu’s group. Had Shibuki just stayed calm or cooperate with Arisu, the group would not have split up and begin fighting amongst each other but instead, worked together to defuse the collars and beat the game. Instead, they played the game how it was intended. Just like Arisu said, hearts games were made to make you look like a fool. The games played with the players’ hearts.
They probably won’t, considering the forensics lady also circumvented the rules of a hearts game by using tools to figure out and confirm who was the murderer.
I'm binging these videos and I'm honestly so happy AIB is the one I've heard the most "This is a good idea"s from lmfaooo I really appreciate this series for it's level-headed and logical approach to these absurd and violent situations. The characters aren't (always) stupid about coming up with a solution. And when they aren't playing optimally, it's usually for a good, human reason.
This guy's definition of the characters Arisu - Arisu/Gamer Usagi - climber girl Chota - IT guy Karube - bartender Kuina - dreadlock girl Chishiya - shady guy Aguni - soldier Niragi - second in command Edit: damn, I never realized how many names are similar to Alice in wonderland characters.
@@Mutrax4706 yeah I understand that, I don't really like saying japanese names all the time too but I just find it funny that he refers to them by occupation or hobby
This is so much more sensible than something like Saw. Here, it isn't (all) about how much pain you can endure. Like, "You are locked in this room, the key is in your lungs, you have two seconds, LOL." It's just so much more entertaining as well, because it isn't total mindless gore.
I am a very nervous and shaky person, not a quick thinker but if I have time I might be able to be a few clubs and and hearts, I am a quite walker for being almost 200 lbs
Throwing your friends under the bus during a situation like that can land you in the path to death, ya gotta trust your friends and believe in them in order to survive
@@akmalshaari7795 Well Squid Game also has some intelligence to play into it, like knowing different strategies on how to beat the challenges faster and on time.
alice in borderland is far more interesting game wise, squid game is more interesting story wise, the games were awful lmao but i like how squid game is kinda a metaphor for capitalism
The Bus Game was definitely the easiest one. If they had just looked at the side of the bus, they’d have basically already won. Also, in the 10 of Hearts Game, I’m surprised no one has just randomly thought of burning Momoka‘s Body before. They literally burned every other body except the one they should’ve burned...
the writer of the manga said that every hearts game can be solved with no deaths, including seven of hearts and ten of hearts, of course we already know they could've burned momoka's body but these people weren't smart, they don't think things through like arisu did, hearts are games made to mess with peoples heads, betraying trust and whatnot, personally i think im seven of hearts they could've used shibuki's id, it was shown on the floor bloodied after they died, my idea is that they could have her be the wolf, and the other three will stare into her eyes on her id, their headsets will recognize the wolf, but the wolf won't recognize sheep, therefore all of them are wolves, or even arisu's idea to cut it off, but the game was designed for arisu and his friends, made by the queen of hearts, using his trauma of seeing the player's head explode in the second game
@@fremipacks actually that goes against the rules of how to play/become the wolf. the game states that the sheep and the wolf both must make eye contact together at the same time. so wolf and sheep both must recognise each other. this is the same reason why the whole "staring into a reflective glass/mirror at the same time" idea wont work. because the wolf and sheep both must make eye contact at the same time, so yes all the sheep could make eye contact with the wolf at the same time but the wold can only make eye contact with one sheep at a time. the creator of aib said that the way of winning it hasnt been revealed yet, meaning it was a way that wasnt thought of/brought up - which is why the cutting the wires thing wouldnt be it most likely too.
26:00 The trick in this game was that the condition of victory was "burn the witch", not "burn the witch to death", meaning that everybody should have to go and just touch the fire enough to get a bit burned. That's it.
The plot twist with the game at 15:10 when you find out that it's a game of who you want to survive and then you all run and hide, so it never was the wolf that had to hide but instead it was the lambs, this show was full of plot twists.
holy shit sameee ;-; have you seen the movie "As The Gods Will"? AFAIK it was Japanese or Korean but it was great. same concept but the plot takes place in a high school campus. i'm also planning to watch cube iirc it has the same thing.
0:28 "he looks like a loser, but looks can be deceiving" "hes an experienced gamer which makes him a strategist" "he reads textbooks in math" "his digital dexterity is impressive" "being told your a disappoint by your family every day is gonna put a serious chip on your shoulder" my man just explained more about social issues than a 500 page essay could in 30 seconds.
yeah!! i have another idea, let the girl be the wolf and then kill her without making eye contact.. idk if this will free she sheep. i mean the only one who truly cared about her was the guy “in love” with her, but i’m pretty sure that he would’ve kill her if that was an option to save his friends
I wouldn‘t worry about it, cause I know that I‘m not made for that, so at the first occasion where I can take one for the team, I‘ll do it, not because I‘m a hero, but because I‘d pick suicide one way or the other....
Considering that some traps require you to cut off your flesh, walk through a wire maze, dive into a pool of needles, and others where you need to go through extremely painful processes, not so much
Saw traps require physical torture and mutilation.... what are u on about lol? Yeah they may be smart but at the end of the day it comes down to who can spill the most blood
I would watch Alice in borderland but I absolutely cannot handle gore. The same thing goes for the walking dead. It's frustrating because I have to worry everytime I watch a new series or wanna get into it because I like mature topics and dark or cynical stories but I can't watch stuff that has so much graphic death in it.
Oh, I can definitely relate, I'm fine with gore, but I am extremely terrified of jumpscares (terrified in a bad way, it's not just the boost of adrenaline some people experience). There are so many incredible movies and games I'm missing out on, but I can't help it.
@@seventhea SAME HERE I FOUND MY PEOPLE but for the most part survival game shows like Alice in borderland or squid game are really not that bad. They have death scenes but you can pretty much handle them. They don't show too much gore, but a LOT of blood. And you don't have to even worry about jumpscares, they don't have any :))
Watching this for the first time felt like the cliche "MC is very smart, this will be easy" but nope, that only happened at episode 1. It felt like every game/challenge shows a moral story, they show how shit other people could act and how the closest to us could easily be lost.
Yeah, exacly, watching the first game was a '' Characters got everything they need to survive, there is not a real threat. - LIke, the dude fucking remembered some crazy shit in order that they end up surviving, and that girl, the one who dies, maybe its just for dramatic purposes. ' - That's why ep 3 hitted me hard in the.
@@slayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyed I watched "Alice in Borderland" after "Sweet Home" so at this point I learned how to NOT get attached to any character 👌🏻
I feel like nobody is talking about the parallels of this show vs Alice in wonderland, our main character is literally named アリス or when translated, 'Arisu' or Alice, the climber girl's name is うさぎ which translates to rabbit, the guy with the hoodie is named 駿太郎 which translates to "Chishiya" or "Cheshire", I mean the guy who owns the Beach is named Hatter, the lady at the end who comes on the screens is definitely the Red Queen, not sure who the white queen is yet, and also the parallels between the stories, which I don't want to get into because it's so vast, I just hope someone makes a video on it

Saori had three whole days to prepare and it never once occured to her that maybe she should take off the work clothes and heels and put some athletic wear on? They were literally in a shopping mall.
I think the group was talking about when they first arrived and realized this game world they were sent to also had time flowing differently. All of the characters also mentioned that when they arrived is different from when she arrived, so we don't know if they were actually there for three days, it's only been one, or even longer than that.
(ex. The main character and his friends just arrived to the world and found some rotten food after a short period of time).
Because time flows differently there, I think she didn't have long before she was forced into a game. But yeah, she should've changed immediately after the first game they played together at least.

About the "goal" thing on the bus, it was literally painted among other grafiits. It was easy too miss because there were a lot of colors and shapes. It worked like an illusion. Besides, in the first game, arisu though it was a "joke", just like one of his games. He was more relaxed so it was easier for him to repair in such weird details (most of his games consisted in doing so). In the bus game, arisu had just lost his friends, was more tense and depressive and, again, the "goal" word was really well hidden.
Yeah, it's a bit hard for someone to pay attention when they're too busy grieving. And Arisu eventually did notice the word when he came back with the motorcycle.
It was also in English (idk if they mentioned him knowing English fluently) and with the graffiti usually drawn in weird shapes/colors it was probably harder to notice it at first.
@@llorell there was a japanese-english dictionary inside the bus. the graffiti is hard to notice if you aren’t looking for it but i feel like the dictionary should’ve made them search for something they can translate

Saaame bro I had the same thought process but they ruined it lol
@@Sparsh_05 I feel like they didn't ruin it. It caught you by surprise and showed you how the games/borderlands work. Good story telling
i think the game is cutomized for each group i mean the game is only revealed when everyone enters the room and the 3rd episode is the perfect example the description of the games says that the lambs have to hide from the wolf but it should be the opposite since the wolf is the only one who survives but in the end it was the lambs who were hiding and that wouldnt have happened if thet werent such good friends if there was any other player the game would have played the way it has so i belive the game master knows who is playing and tailors the game for them
@@sreeraghnair3676 so the girl is the dealer?
Arisu noticed the fancy car, knew its exact length, the emergency exit map, and figured out the building layout for the first game, but didn't see the giant "GOAL" painted on the bus 😭😭
Yep , that's what I thought too. But I guess everyone thinks the game will be tougher than it actually is and therefore overanalyze things and missed the whole point of the game with the obvious clue
I think the reason for that is because he was still trying to find his will to continue on after losing two people in his life who saw the good in him and his worth in the world. His head was not completely in it because he was still on the edge. He got the courage to go but he also was willing to lose his life and be with his friends. It was this game that pushed him on as well as Usagi. She was someone who saw how much worth he has and how smart he is and it reminded him of his friends and he was willing to do whatever he needed to keep her alive and not lose anyone else who believe in him just as much as he believes in them
He was going through something 😭😭😭
I think that Arisu still in the middle of the depression over lost of his best friends so his focus is a little bit off. Plus, the GOAL was paint on the bus like a grafiti on the oppiside of the bus. I dont think anyone would realize that
@@syabilaazri7834 actually no, that’s what makes it worse. If you watch again, we find out GOAL was written on the same side they enter. It just didn’t occur to him until he saw it and then realized it was right there in front of them, in front of ALL of them when they entered the bus

Yeah
Honestly, I didn't really care that much since I didn't have a personal connection with them 🤷🏽♀️
I've just started to read the manga. In the manga, Chisiya in the 5 spades game chose the top left corner so he can see most of the situation downstairs and right side of the building. It's also mentioned that they heard a door opened when the tagger enter the arena and Chisiya has expected that the tagger could be coming out from the safe room. As he couldn't see the tagger and the safe room from his position, he knows that the safe room is on the left side of the building some level bellow him (it's different from the adaptation I think). Pretty good strategy and got to say that the author of the manga is very smart.
"How would you beat the death games in Alice in Borderlands?"
I wouldn't. I'd be dead first game
To be fair, the 'Life' doors really had a Cardcaptor Sakura kind of look - so it would have made sense to people who never read that series, but yet still new enough about mangas, to say 'Hey. Isn't that Cardcaptor Sakura ? I'm not sure, since I never read it, but I remember seeing quite similar images in my local manga libraries. Oh, we have a playing card ? OK, then. I guess the card is supposed to hint to that girl who either is Sakura or looks a lot like her'. I probably would have opened that door ...
That's me!

Alright, I'm going to say something about this video. Arisu and his group know nothing about the "Game" and only know what the woman told them. (theyll die if they don't participate) When you are explaining this from the very first game, you know everything about how the system works. As a analyst, you know everything when Arisu does not. Arisu and his group of friends literally just entered the "Game" and know nothing about how it works, this means they are only able to use the knowledge they have available to them; which is what they know. For example, Arisu has studied vehicles and is a pro and experienced gamer. He uses his knowledge to solve the problem. Furthermore, Arisu and his group of friends, are in a mental state of curiosity, and fear because, like I said, THEY KNOW NOTHING. You need to take in the fact that they only have the available knowledge and understand their mental fortitude to this unknown and dangerous world.
Arisu: has the most potential to survive a zombie outbreak

Pls tell me before I go insane 😵😵😵😵😵
The worst thing in the Borderlands isn’t dying. It’s the fact that the longer you survive, the more agonizing things get.
And the more new players who will rely on the experienced
Not really, when u survive a lot of games (Spoiler alert) you can get free from that world or become one of the kings or queens of the cards, like that girl that shows at the end that is in fact the queen of hearts.
Isnt that a diffrent game?
I mean the game master is a cosplayer of kakegurui
Either you would be desperate to get out and put yourself before anyone, you'd have to hunt for your own food, cook, keep good hygiene, get clean clothes, and on top of that survive other people. The first girl we're introduced through has already figured out 3 days in that's you have to care about yourself more than others to survive. As the games get harder you can see that everyone is tempted to sacrifice others thinking it would give them a personal gain. If there is a way out, by the time you've escaped you're either a flexible person and will need very little mental help to get your life back together or you'll go mad and have to stay in a mental hospital for the rest of your life.
For the last game, throwing the corpse in the fire first would be one of the stupidest things to do. Ofc it’s an easy solution with hindsight but if she didn’t kill herself you would be removing all the possible evidence. The killer could have left an imprint of hair or from a ring etc, destroying your only piece of evidence straight away is stuoid
those kinds of things would take FOREVER to analyse, its faster and more likely to be her that committed su1c1d3 instead, otherwise it wouldn't have such little time for a murder

I’m surprised that for the first game, you didn’t mention they could try throwing objects into the rooms to see if it’s safe. The name tag that the woman threw was lasered, meaning it’ll hit anything unrecognized, even if it’s not alive. Since the girl died in the same way, it can be assumed that the same rules apply to those rooms.
Bro you could clearly see that even on the id , the head was lasered so throwing objects would not be an option as it only recognises faces and aims for the head

I just rewatched this. You can beat all the games without anyone dying, even the wolf and lamb game. If they take turns removing the headgear in that game, then no one has to die. There is a chance the helmet might explode if tampered with, but that's a risk everyone has to take. To equalize the risk, they could form a circle where the person behind tries to remove the helmet of the person before him. Anyway, when Arisu tried to remove his, it didn't explode, so I think the show was telling us that was a possibility. The last game as well could've been solved by the forensic cop without anyone dying.
Arisu didn't actually manage to get off the helmet he tried but the helmet didn't budge, he was afraid it'd blow off his head so he stopped
I know I'm way late, but having read the manga and watched the show, this is far from confirmed. There are plenty of theories as to how the seven of hearts could be won without everyone dying, but no official answer.

I figured out the game at the Beach before I knew the outcome, just using the deduction of the rules of the games up to that point. Heart games play with people's emotions, and the biggest emotional blow would make a surviving player feel like a moron. So, in that case, turn everyone against each other so they disregard the corpse. The game's rules said to identify the witch and throw their body in the fire, not that you had to kill them (though throwing a living person in the fire would kill them anyway lol), so I thought the most devastating blow would be that the witch committed suicide. Watching through, my guess was proven right.

Western Horror movies : Idiot getting killed for the most stupidest thing.

I love how he said that he’d train everyday to improve physically for the games but says he’d rather drive a diesel car than a bicycle.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wow!! Knowing the deets!!
It burns less energy therefore it's more practical as That way you save energy. At the Same Time The Bicycle Is More Reusable And Can Be Used Without Fuel. The Problem Is That Is Uses Energy From YOU Aka. It Uses A Lot Of Energy From You.
@@Candydevil100 But wouldn’t he want that? It’s a great way to build stamina and improve your cardio along with the “training”.
i drive bicycles
The badge in the beginning that got laserd, I would personally used that as confirmation in the first game. If it got zapped I'd go the other way, it's only a one go but still would have worked
Thats actually really smart lol

Behavioural psychologist here!
Fun fact: people who lie actually tend to make MORE eye contact. It is because of this false perception that looking away is something liars do, so people tend to compensate for that :)
Me with anxiety who do both in the course of one conversation 👀
@@justme7410 also true! One of the harder things about micro-aggressions is that there can be a lot of similarities between the cause of the behaviour.
When looking at the ones related to lying , a lot of them are close to (for example :) ) anxiety
Isn't also true that you make more eye contact because you want to see if they buy your lie?
I think it is important to know how a person acts in normal situations and without lying. And then you can see changes in behaviour that might indicate that they are lying.
lol my neruodivergent ass either makes way too much eye contact or none at all

Bro, the lambs part made cry like you wouldn't believe. That shit was emotional
This would be a pretty neat RPG game actually. Huge, abandoned city and you get stuff by doing games. Outside of the games, you have to kill to survive.
And??? Other games in the Manga (examples: 5♣️♥️♦️, 6♠️♣️♥️ or 7♣️♦️ etc.) doesn't have games shown in the manga. Means we could get an Alice in Borderland game and play as a character who will complete these unadapted games.
If you guys make a cheap rpg game on this call me out on discord
thanks for the game idea, I'll send 0 percent of the cash to you!
That was a joke, i think it's a nice idea, but I don't steal.
That... could actually be a banger game... I'm getting ideas already! But I'm no game dev so I'll just daydream about it lol
lmk if they make gane
for the tag game, what’s the point of having a “safezone” if it’s not safe and the killer can still kill you there 💀
Yeah it’s more of a saving zone than a safezone
When you press the button that placed in safezone, the killers will die, their neck exploded.
Everything in the game is designed to make you think twice or kill you
Its basically how Resident Evil safe zones work depending on difficulty. On Not A Hero (one of the hardest difficulties), monsters are able to break down the safe room doors. Same applies here. Since the tag game is one of the harder challenges, the killer ignores the safe zone rules and goes in anyway
The mindbreaking ones are the heart cards since it's a psychological game
Fans have a strong theory that the seven of hearts game actually has a solution where nobody dies.
The solution was if a sheep cut the wolf’s wire, the wolf’s collar wouldn’t explode. Then the wolf would give the wolf status to another sheep and a third sheep would cut that wolf’s wire, the cycle repeats until 3 players have their wires cut and the final person has the wolf role. The problem is, the players wouldn’t do this because of one fatal flaw; the players involved *(Arisu’s group)* saw it was a hearts game, not a clubs game.
The game was designed by Mira (the lady that was on the screens at the end, and represents the “Queen of Hearts”) and was specifically intended for Arisu and his friends to play.
The reason why this was impossible was because of the circumstances, namely the players’ relationships. Since Shibuki (the white dress lady) distrusted and didn’t know Arisu and his friends well enough, coupled with the fact that she understood the rules that supposedly only one victor would live, she made cooperation impossible.
Had there only been Arisu, Chota and Karube as the players, of course they would all try to cooperate. But that’s why the game was hearts rather than clubs, because Mira knew Shibuki would not try to cooperate and instead opt for a guaranteed survival. Mira created a clubs game but then labelled it “hearts” and intended it for Arisu’s group. Had Shibuki just stayed calm or cooperate with Arisu, the group would not have split up and begin fighting amongst each other but instead, worked together to defuse the collars and beat the game. Instead, they played the game how it was intended.
Just like Arisu said, hearts games were made to make you look like a fool.
The games played with the players’ hearts.
Wouldn’t the people watching them just laser through their heads if they try to do that?
They probably won’t, considering the forensics lady also circumvented the rules of a hearts game by using tools to figure out and confirm who was the murderer.
@@TheHeadlessCreator I mean, they gave them tools like that for a reason
but how they would give the Wolf role if the wire was already cut?
@@Satchun I'm pretty sure the theory meant the wire that activates the bomb would be cut, not the entire headset. My bad.

I really appreciate this series for it's level-headed and logical approach to these absurd and violent situations. The characters aren't (always) stupid about coming up with a solution. And when they aren't playing optimally, it's usually for a good, human reason.

This is so much more sensible than something like Saw. Here, it isn't (all) about how much pain you can endure. Like, "You are locked in this room, the key is in your lungs, you have two seconds, LOL."
It's just so much more entertaining as well, because it isn't total mindless gore.

Throwing your friends under the bus during a situation like that can land you in the path to death, ya gotta trust your friends and believe in them in order to survive
You make friends...sometimes if you are wounded makes you the safest one ;)
Let's get this straight
Alice in borderland- playing to survive, forced
Squid games- for money, optional
Alice in borderland is more about intelligent.
Squid game is more about luck and self-interest.
@@akmalshaari7795 yeah
But no one forcing you to play the game
Alice in borderland, people are just transportated to another world
@@akmalshaari7795 Well Squid Game also has some intelligence to play into it, like knowing different strategies on how to beat the challenges faster and on time.
Squid game KINDA has some strategies in a few of the games. Other than that it's just chance

The Bus Game was definitely the easiest one. If they had just looked at the side of the bus, they’d have basically already won. Also, in the 10 of Hearts Game, I’m surprised no one has just randomly thought of burning Momoka‘s Body before. They literally burned every other body except the one they should’ve burned...
like they are not chased by some dictator group trying to kill everyone? of course
@@GG-ms4qp I meant the „crazy dictator group“. They could’ve easily just burned the body like every other body they killed.
the writer of the manga said that every hearts game can be solved with no deaths, including seven of hearts and ten of hearts, of course we already know they could've burned momoka's body but these people weren't smart, they don't think things through like arisu did, hearts are games made to mess with peoples heads, betraying trust and whatnot, personally i think im seven of hearts they could've used shibuki's id, it was shown on the floor bloodied after they died, my idea is that they could have her be the wolf, and the other three will stare into her eyes on her id, their headsets will recognize the wolf, but the wolf won't recognize sheep, therefore all of them are wolves, or even arisu's idea to cut it off, but the game was designed for arisu and his friends, made by the queen of hearts, using his trauma of seeing the player's head explode in the second game
The place was in pure chaos and everybody was killing each other so it’s hard to think about the solution when there is gun shots every second
@@fremipacks actually that goes against the rules of how to play/become the wolf. the game states that the sheep and the wolf both must make eye contact together at the same time. so wolf and sheep both must recognise each other. this is the same reason why the whole "staring into a reflective glass/mirror at the same time" idea wont work. because the wolf and sheep both must make eye contact at the same time, so yes all the sheep could make eye contact with the wolf at the same time but the wold can only make eye contact with one sheep at a time. the creator of aib said that the way of winning it hasnt been revealed yet, meaning it was a way that wasnt thought of/brought up - which is why the cutting the wires thing wouldnt be it most likely too.
please do this again for the second season!! 🙏🏻

26:00 The trick in this game was that the condition of victory was "burn the witch", not "burn the witch to death", meaning that everybody should have to go and just touch the fire enough to get a bit burned. That's it.
or they could have "burned" each other with bad jokes.

The plot twist with the game at 15:10 when you find out that it's a game of who you want to survive and then you all run and hide, so it never was the wolf that had to hide but instead it was the lambs, this show was full of plot twists.
I like movies where the main thing is for the protagonist has to escape a "game". Like Saw. And that's why I like this so much.

Yes, I didn't expect that one too.
Yeah...but i not sure it would work. I mean , it is almost dark in that place and i dont think they have a lot light to make reflection of even a face
yeah!! i have another idea, let the girl be the wolf and then kill her without making eye contact.. idk if this will free she sheep. i mean the only one who truly cared about her was the guy “in love” with her, but i’m pretty sure that he would’ve kill her if that was an option to save his friends

Imagine how easy it would be to beat Saw traps if all of the victims were these guys.
Considering that some traps require you to cut off your flesh, walk through a wire maze, dive into a pool of needles, and others where you need to go through extremely painful processes, not so much

I would watch Alice in borderland but I absolutely cannot handle gore. The same thing goes for the walking dead. It's frustrating because I have to worry everytime I watch a new series or wanna get into it because I like mature topics and dark or cynical stories but I can't watch stuff that has so much graphic death in it.
It’s rly not that Gorry it will have a small warning before like it shows anything like not a warning but you will know
@@Nat_alie14448 it’s gory, some of the scenes at least.
Oh, I can definitely relate, I'm fine with gore, but I am extremely terrified of jumpscares (terrified in a bad way, it's not just the boost of adrenaline some people experience). There are so many incredible movies and games I'm missing out on, but I can't help it.
@@seventhea SAME HERE I FOUND MY PEOPLE but for the most part survival game shows like Alice in borderland or squid game are really not that bad. They have death scenes but you can pretty much handle them. They don't show too much gore, but a LOT of blood. And you don't have to even worry about jumpscares, they don't have any :))
@@Nat_alie14448 wait season 2 is freaking insane with gore
literally i cried when kurube died in that wolf one, i wanted them to live. I felt bad for arisu after that.
Yah, I cried too😥
Yea chota aswell... poor guy..
Wasn’t hid name Karube btw?
it hurt so much when the woman gave up for him after hearing the friends too 💔
i cried for a good 10 minutes
Watching this for the first time felt like the cliche "MC is very smart, this will be easy" but nope, that only happened at episode 1.
It felt like every game/challenge shows a moral story, they show how shit other people could act and how the closest to us could easily be lost.
The Lucifer Effect
the amount of characters im attached to that died😭
Me too. I really though the mc would pull some twist shit and find a way for them to get out
Yeah, exacly, watching the first game was a '' Characters got everything they need to survive, there is not a real threat. - LIke, the dude fucking remembered some crazy shit in order that they end up surviving, and that girl, the one who dies, maybe its just for dramatic purposes. ' - That's why ep 3 hitted me hard in the.
@@slayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyed I watched "Alice in Borderland" after "Sweet Home" so at this point I learned how to NOT get attached to any character 👌🏻
I feel like nobody is talking about the parallels of this show vs Alice in wonderland, our main character is literally named アリス or when translated, 'Arisu' or Alice, the climber girl's name is うさぎ which translates to rabbit, the guy with the hoodie is named 駿太郎 which translates to "Chishiya" or "Cheshire", I mean the guy who owns the Beach is named Hatter, the lady at the end who comes on the screens is definitely the Red Queen, not sure who the white queen is yet, and also the parallels between the stories, which I don't want to get into because it's so vast, I just hope someone makes a video on it
Kuina is definitely a queen.
@@jeam89 it makes sense, I just assumed she was the caterpillar because of how much she smoked, or rather had cigarettes + the colors she wore and she was a sort've guide or consultant for chishiya
