Interesting survival game
Arisu (the pronunciation of Alice in Japanese), the oldest son from a rich family, a NEET who spends his daily life playing games and hanging out with his two friends. The first episode got me hooked as we were shown the very crowded Shibuya suddenly turns into a dead city with no one but three people left. The thought of being left in such circumstances with no transportation and electricity kinda made me anxious, also the unsettling feeling of the silence from an empty town is so creepy for me. Finished the whole episodes in a day because it was very interesting and I would like to see what's going to happen and why are they in that game, but of course 8 episodes are not enough to answer all of that. The problem from a manga adaptation series is always the lack of character development, they couldn't fit every detail in such a short duration so there is no deep attachment to the characters. AIB did great in telling us about each character's backstory through these flashback but that's it, it doesn't make us feel connected with them so when they die later we are just "oh". Looking forward to season 2 since the actual villain finally appears, and curious to see what kind of games and the difficulty level they are going to play to get the face card.
