This episode is certainly superior to the previous instalment. The Beach setting becomes much more fleshed out here and begins to show the more sinister colours that I had come to love about the show. After a rousing if not slightly unnerving speech from the Hatter about being a "hero" he decides to participate himself in a game to reinforce his status among his 'soldiers' but it doesn't quite go to plan as his body is found shortly after with a bullet In his chest and negotiations quickly begin on who should take up the mantle as leader of the Beach, Aguni practically forces his way into this role with the help of his militia and things begin to twist and turn with tricks and betrayals coming from all sides. In the end of the episode we get the reveal that The Beach itself has become home to the next game and its the 10 of Hearts! This moment got my blood pumping, not going to lie. That being said, it says there were 58 participants in The Beach but I'm fairly sure there are more from what we've seen. I think this is a decent 8, not my favourite but not bad by any means.

The plot of the 6th episode was kinda just like the previous episode. The storyline is just okay. I'm kinda mad, that since episode 5 we didn't had the chance to watch a new game.. The ending scene, was very mysterious and totally unexpected. Among us vibes, for sure. The characters are very well-developed. Even though, most of them are kinda dislikable. Can't wait to watch episode 7. However, from now on, the show it's gonna be way different than the first part (1-4 episode). Anyway, I hope it's gonna be intense and that, there's gonna be a huge plot twist!

They go to the ground but the QB at the very last moment keeps the ball and throw. The WR can't reach it, though.
This episode is not at the same level of the previous one but the end was very good. And also the pot twist.

A really fine episode. Straight to the point and full of unexpected twists and turns. It's great that the slower world-building of the past couple of episodes has come to a head so quickly, and the set-up for the next episode is excellent.

Never read the graphic novel and I think I would have stopped with the introduction and revelation of 'The beach' community. It's spoiling the whole concept of the show and distracts from the greater mystery about the 'parallel Tokyo'. The characters are caricatures of themselves and even less believable as part of a cohesive story. Sadly the narrative is going downhill fast...
