aubrey

brigg's mario plan theory is frying me so bad lmfaooooooo

Will

AIB todayyy🔥🔥

Merry

Yes anya... May be some people feel satisfaction by trolling someone... But i don't care first of all i don't reply to these types of comment.. And second i will say whatever i want to .. not disrespecting someone but my views and good conversation regarding any season😊

Betsy

I'm glad lol Already get some rest. See you after while. I think I'm going to do the same. Yes! It's going to be amazing!! 🤭🥰🤗

Jamin

Interesting

Anya

Yep no worries I got you! Lol Well unlike you, I'm not a night owl 🥱 lol so I'll see you next on our favorite game! 🤗🥰🫶💤

Betsy

No I understand. Thank you. Us, AIB pals gotta stick together haha 🤗🥰

Anya

Sorry it wasn't even that serious but I just got protective over you lol AIB pals🫂🥰

Betsy

Aww thanks, Anya! That means a lot. You're so sweet. And you're part of the reason why I enjoy these rewatches so much too. It makes it more fun and exciting! 🥰

Anya

Keep on spreading your joy and positivity Betsy! Your a part of why I love these rewatches and watch alongs! We need more people like you! 💞🫶

Anya

I was just going to comment this Merry! If you wanna join in cat pic dude, then join in! First time was funny, but now it seems like your trolling. That's what the comments are for- to interact with each other!

Merry

Ok good😀

Betsy

Sounds great to me. Can't wait! It's Thursday yaay and my first favorite game will be soon. 😉

Merry

Anyway we will continue our conversation after every AIB ep😆

Betsy

I guess so haha But I find that strange and kind of funny that this person is so bothered by it. 😂

Merry

Basically you want to be included in our conversation? then say it😄 But i have to say our conversation is nothing as compare to WHY Anya Betsy& will😉 I think betsy we should use another platform for kdrama or any anime discussion because some people are being bothered🤔

Ronald Bohne

Pretty much a sprint to the end after this episode. Easily the best games left and some answers. As for the logic behind the game: cant stay at the base after up 6k because items amount to more than 6k, both the winner and loser are inactive so they cant just touch each other right after, and lastly they gave at the end because all opposing members have 10k+ so they cant win a battle. And again, yall keep forgetting to treat it like an anime so yes character building conversations happen. It annoys the crap out of you here but again, anime does this every other episode and its fine.

Redbone

im so sick and tired with all these mediocre repetitive comments, next week your likely to say the same thing all over again, just copy/paste it make things easier.

Mysterious Figure

I thought it was obvious Usagi bit off Niragi's piercing during the first attempted rape scene, and yet he had it in his mouth every time after. A 7/10 show still for me despite people keep saying season 2 gets better. The cringe acting still continues. The anime/manga character quirks, looks, costumes, camera shots, superhuman athletics, etc. dont translate convincingly into live action, yet they keep trying to do all this. If the show tried to have its own identity more natural to the live action medium, it would have felt less immersion breaking. Some of the script, especially some of the lines are so cringe its really hard to not pull some eye muscles while rolling. At least one of Kyuma's friends was the actor that played Toranaga's brother in Shogun so that was really cool.

Mysterious Figure

Brig, the stache is giving off the -Im about to announce my brand new OF content any second now- look. 😇

Natsu1401

I was ready to say Tata to Tatta

Betsy

No you're not. We talk a lot on here. But then again, I talk to a lot of people. I like to be social lol

‎

I see a lot of convo with betsy and merry am I buggin

Yoona

I've been waiting for this so long not just the glory but the kdrama in general they so good

jul ☽

Lmao

Jamie

Blaze Pizza is so delicious. Brig knows what’s up.

Betsy

Yep the scruffy bedhead look. It's all the rage lol They wear it well. However, it looks much better when Hyunsu has it shorter in season 2. 🤣

Venus

Oh ok thank god lmao. I wasn’t mad, just making a joke about how I want to watch the next one soon

WHY

True 😂 the typical hairstyle in the apocalyptic world

Sasha

Oh really? I think my statement is quite valid

Betsy

Same. I'm having trouble getting through season 2. I loved Season 1 of Sweet Home so much minus the repetitive Imagine Dragons song that would of been better with a dark Korean one in my opinion lol And funny take but in Sweet Home, his hairstyle as Hyunsu kind of reminds me of Arisu's 😂

Cannon Andrus

It comes out on Thursday?

Cannon Andrus

That’s the most insane thing I’ve ever heard

lex

Tao Tsuchiya (Usagi) is a pretty well known actress in Japan, I believe she does her own stunts. There's some behind the scenes in Rurouni Kenshin (Mackenyu aka Zoro from One Piece LA also has some bts fights here) : https://youtu.be/285gcLAyiTU?si=CVzsmKRdJRpfpuEC Their fight scenes are really good.

Fatipapi

Its like that one saying ‘muscles on a skinny guy are like big tits on a big girl, doesn’t count’ 😂

Fatipapi

His pecs are pretty thic tho 😂 but yeah when mckay said “hes ripped” i thought nahh, hes mainly just skinny lmao, that dont count

Sasha

Would look a lot better with a stetson

Sasha

He skipping everything day. He just looks like a muscle guy because his fat percentage is like 2

Sasha

Sorry to all the anime fans but Kyuma owns that pose.

Sasha

Cannon when Nigiri punched Usagi's head to the asphalt "😧" and then a second later "Tatta😁"

Gnom

Im watching this first time with them but I have read that one years ago

Sasha

32:44 ...Sun

Sasha

14:29 Brig was feeling the bare bun energy with that howl

Yoona

It just getting better and better hope u watch kdramas to replace alice after if finish

WHY

That’s exactly how I feel about the three dramas 🤝 I love Sweet Home for only season 1 though.

Betsy

I'm too hooked. I've also watched it several times. But it's the best with the geks enjoyable humorous commentary and clever insights/theories ☺️

Betsy

That's okay. You should only do what you're comfortable with. No pressure. I'm just a big horror fan. And I've watched all of those as well. I love Sweet Home. My Demon started off good but kind of fall off close to the end there. I like Nevertheless but it was so moody. Lol 😂 He's handsome and I like his acting, best of both worlds.

Will

Same, I don’t even know how many times i watched it. But its still cool.🔥

GreetswithJudgement

I love it!

WHY

I’ve watched it so many times and never get bored of it despite knowing all the ins and outs of the show 😂🔥

Zipzzty

Will

I wish I can forget Alice in Borderland to watch it for the first time again.🔥😭

WHY

Aww I’m so convinced I wish I could give it a watch, but I really can’t do horror movie, it’s gonna scare the hell out of me 🫠🫣 Haha I watched Song Kang’s Nevertheless, My Demon, Sweet Home (s1), Forecasting Love and Weather, and Love Alarm. I just realised I’ve watched so many of his dramas 😂

Betsy

I've been wanting to watch Kingdom and Golden Kamuy. Yeah some of his dramas are a hit or miss. Props to him for hustling lol Yeah Another is such a good anime if you like Supernatural Horror which I eat it up. And aww he's kind of like the Japanese version of Korean actor, Song Kang. He's one of my favorite Korean actors. 😂

WHY

He is! He was originally famous for romance dramas adapted from manga, but later challenged himself to more action dramas/dramas in all different genres, though they’re still mostly adapted from manga 🤣 Omg I know all the shows you mentioned except for “Another”. But then although I like Kento, I think the shows he participated in are a mixed bag - some are good, some are bad ngl. I watched his movie “Kingdom” recently, it’s a series that contain 4 seasons. That was pretty decent though the ending of the last season is not very impressive. Yes, “Orange” is a really sad but heartwarming movie 🥺😭

Betsy

It's always one big party! 🤣

Betsy

Omg!!! I do the same. I get a little obsessed with the actor and actress and want to know about them. Thanks, WHY. I definitely will. Orange is one of my all time favorites even though it's a little depressing. I like the story behind it. Also, I remember Kento from the live action Wolf Girl and Black Prince and the live adaptation of the manga, L.D.K. anime is better. Lol Dang scrolling through imdb, he really is the live action drama king 😂 He was in Another, Jojo's Bizzare Adventure, Death Note, Orange, Golden Kamuy, One Week Friends, Wolf Girl and Black Prince, Your Lie in April, etc. My bad I didn't mean to make this so long 🤣

Fatipapi

Not the GOOCH SHOT 😂😂😂😂😂 Cannon

GreetswithJudgement

😆 what are we here for, if not to spam the comments 😂

Fatipapi

Kyuma skipping arm day

WHY

Oh wow I know “Orange”! I only watched the live action but not the anime version. I watched it because of Kento haha. I have the habit of checking out almost all the dramas and movies an actor is in if I like the actor. But Tao (the actress who played Usagi) was also in the live action so I had to go for it - perfect cast combination. You’ve got to check it out, Betsy :) Now that you mentioned it, I remember the actor who played Niragi was also in it.

Fatipapi

Same 😂😂 always spamming comments as i watch on my pc lol

Fatipapi

You misspelled beards

Fatipapi

I agree! But it could’ve been more of a s1 aguni “evil” character, not this cringy orochimaru-geto love baby

Alexa

I think the only opinions that matter is you and wifey. If she likes the stache, slay king ✨️

Fatipapi

It’s giving pickup truck and beer

Fatipapi

What a cute thread 🥹🥹♥️ i love this

Betsy

It's the live action version of the anime, "Orange." I've only watched the anime but I might have to check the live action since Kento's in it. He's becoming one of my favorite Japanese actors :)

draeonic 🪼

Geks: Niragi redemption arc incoming Niragi: Nah

Venus

Alright guys. See you in a week for episode three

Chalène

Oh ? Didn’t know for the drama. Do u have the name )

Chalène

Obsviously that was it 🙄

Luke Fox

You can see their points but its combined so they wound't know who has what. In a 1v1 you see the total of the other person. In a 2v1 you only see the total points of the 2 people. There is no way to know how many points each person has.

Betsy

I'm glad, Merry ☺️

Merry

Yep betsy. 🙂

Merry

Lets go... From here till the end of season the true layers and lessons behind every game will be shown.

Betsy

It's back to normal now. Is yours too? :)

Betsy

I have 2 nieces, and I can’t even imagine that happening… It was truly a blessing you both were unscathed. ☺️

Merry

Yep it was terrifying betsy... Thankgod me and my little angel were saved it was a miracle for both of us🙂

Betsy

Thanks guys. It’s alright. Your comments are so insightful and thought provoking. It really makes me look forward to every episode to discuss with my AIB pals. 🥰 But I guess sometimes less is more lol

WHY

You’re right Anya! My comments are sometimes too long, I really have to restrain myself a bit 😂😂

Merry

May be🤷‍♀️ because my membership is also not expired.

Betsy

Oh goodness! So sorry that happened to you. Glad you and your nephew were safe. People should have better control of their pets. That sounds completely terrifying… Eeek! 😖

McKay Carter

Yes

Anya

Your good Betsy! Shows can just be enjoyed at face value. You don't always have to dissect an episode. Some people don't have time to read long comments. I have to stop myself sometimes lol

WHY

No worry Betsy. It’s an entertainment show afterall, no need to go in depth every time actually. I go too deep sometimes it’s kinda unnecessary 😅 I love seeing your comments here and there, really increase my excitement and make my rewatch more enjoyable 🤗

Merry

Same thing is happening to me post wall is empty...showing no recent activity

Merry

Omg scary incident. 3 years back the same thing happened to me and my nephew who was 6 years old at that time. We go for a walk after crossing two streets our neighbour opens his door his dog came out my nephew scream and he start running after us we both holding hands and starts running and screaming. When i look back he was still behind us... The more scariest thing was we were crossing roads with no traffic signal and i said to him plz watch traffic but he was not listening just holding my hand tightly and running but Thankgod we reached home door was opened my nephew was shaking and continuously repeating i will never go for a walk never...That was my scariest experience because i had to protect my little bestie🙂

Betsy

Random question but is anyone else's Patreon account acting up? It's only showing old posts unless I use the filter function to change it to show the current ones. It wasn't like that before. It just started being weird. 😭

WHY

Thanks so much for the support 🥰 Love you two as always 🙆🏻‍♀️

spoons

Perfect 👌

cade-carter

they discussed the item thing, also there is nothing saying you dont get to see the other persons points just cause ur combined

WHY

Same same - the next one and the one in ep6 are my favs.

Betsy

Anya, you and WHY as well as Will on here have such in depth analysis on the episodes. ☺️ I wish I could come up with stuff like that even after watching the show several times. Everyone's brain is different I guess though lol

WHY

Same! Crazy ride from here - excited for all the coming episodes!

Betsy

It builds the suspense and adds dimension.

WHY

I’m agreeing on everything you both said :)

WHY

Hahaha lol 🤣🤣 Anya I love you 🫶🏻 Although I hate everything Niragi did, I actually agree with Luke that having an evil character is good and interesting, it brings more dynamics to the show.

Anya

🫶

Anya

There you are! Lol Always love reading your in depth analysis!!

Betsy

All are excellent and clever in their own way.

Betsy

True. It won't be long now, Anya. We're almost there... haha I just freaking love the deep meaning and all the symbolism behind this show and constant mind games. It makes it 10 times better.

Betsy

Perfectly said, WHY. I love reading your thoughts as well as Anya's :)

Redbone

you and i have the same trauma, ive been chase and bitten by dogs before. So I dont like being chase, my only option is fighting back, runnings not an option.

Betsy

Nope they're certainly not. It's between that one and the one in ep 6 ♦️♟️

Anya

They all have interesting ideologies and outlook on life. The manga fleshes them out more. My fave is controversial and I can't say rn because of spoilers.

WHY

Just to explain a little: - When they were in the lead after the 1st round, it wouldn’t work for Arisu’s team five of them to just stay at their base and touch the base waiting because the King of Clubs team could gain more points by finding items and surpass them at the early stage. So not a good idea to passively stay there and wait without actively finding more items. [Edit: Great seeing Carter realised and mentioned this problem towards the end.] - It makes sense for Arisu to battle alone with Kyuma because then he could see Kyuma’s point. If Arisu and Kuina battled together and combined points, they wouldn’t see their opponent’s points. So battling alone makes Arisu figure out that the King of Clubs team is splitting their points equally. - Brig was right there. Even if Tatta touches the base and becomes active again, it wouldn’t work touching the King of Clubs team immediately afterwards because the team members are all inactive. King of Clubs team would have to go back to their own base to become active, otherwise Tatta (even if he becomes active touching the base) touching them (all inactive) will get shocked; he wouldn’t gain any points doing so.

Lydia

omgggggggg thats my fave game of the whole thing i think. they arent ready heheh

Anya

Where's WHY?? Always good at letting everyone know to trust the process and there's a reason for everything. 😂🤣 All love WHY 🫶

WHY

There’re gonna be lots of cliffhangers in season 2. I like how with Clubs game, because it’s all about teamwork, the game is multidimensional and could go so many different directions depending on the strategies and teammates. This game together with the dialogues between Arisu and Kyuma also serve important purposes: 1) To give a little bit of hints what kind of world this is. To give information that all the players have to fight against the Kings/Queen/Jack (i.e. the citizens of this world) to win the games. 2) Searching for your true self and your true character - the King of Clubs being naked is indeed consistent with his emphasis on showing the true nature and character of oneself. 3) Comparing equality vs inequality - the King of Clubs sees equality as the most important thing in teamwork whereas Arisu’s team members aren’t really equal; especially because they didn’t know each other before, they’ve only just met each others in this world and they had conflicts/arguments before, even Arisu and Usagi have disagreements as to whether to return to the original world. With the King of Clubs being the kindest King out of all, his existence is really there to show his ideology while at the same time bring out Arisu’s true character, and let Arisu overcome his fear and reflect on his own meaning of life.

Betsy

Yes and you did well. Nice one. 😉

Lydia

im trying to be discreet lol

Lydia

Betsy im trying to remember..is the next one 🐱 behind 📶s???

Betsy

It does agree with me lol Oh that one was pretty epic.... They will be on edge for sure... 👀

WHY

Y’all aren’t ready for the conclusion of this game. It’s sick, you wouldn’t even have imagined. And the next game is wild too. If you like this game and this episode, then you’re gonna love the rest of season 2. They’re all so good, very well thought out and even crazier than this game.

Betsy

For sure. He seems a bit older too. Therefore, Kyuma has more life experience than him so, he has a more mature outlook on life and its meaning and significance. But you're right they both are selfless and care about their friends like family. He's my favorite Face Card Leader.

Merry

I am very scared when someone runs after me. Especially goken like person who was behind usagi😄

Luke Fox

I think having just an evil character who thinks about the games completely different than the other MCs is interesting

Anya

🤣🤣It agrees with you. It's brilliant! Lol With manga knowledge, I would throw in epsiode 7. I'll elaborate when it comes.

Owen

Please watch The Glory. It's K-drama, it's worth it !!!

Betsy

It's funny how the actor that plays him, Dori Sakurada is close friends with Kento Yamazaki in real life. They were in another drama together. Sorry that was off topic lol

Anya

3 4 5 6 7 8 😃🤣😂

Anya

Because of his history.🙄 "The bullied became the bully" Your past does NOT give you the right to be a mass murderer and rap***!

Betsy

If you like it, that's what matters :)

Betsy

I'm not sure why it highlighted that word but anywho lol Their minds are going to be blown...

Ly

I don't know what's sweeter, Tatta or Carter repeatedly calling Tatta his sweet boy

Will

Oh me too!! They’re my fav🔥.

Anya

I agree🙁 Both are similar. Fair and righteous. Both see value in other lives. However, Kyuma is more realistic. Sweet Arisu is trying to save each life but Kyuma knows someone has to die. Could be because he's been here longer..

Will

Yeah! like what did he do for u to love him?

SIIver

Don’t be hating my dude Brig you look fire dw about him

Chalène

Obviously like look at the character.. Seem impossible for me to someone liking him. And then I remember that some people like him actually…

Betsy

This one coming up and the one in episode 6. Both games are absolutely brilliant.🔥😉

Will

Same, I know what game you’re talking about🔥

Betsy

And I really like Kyuma and his philosophy on life. I feel like in the real world, he and Arisu could have been friends :-(

Brig Andrus

Rip

Brady

shave

Redbone

Brig Andrus

🥸 what are the thoughts on the stache?

Ron Jackson Jr

Brig's mustache arc?

Luke Fox

Still watching so idk if you figured this out eventually but I think you guys missed a line. You said why are they still linking up when they know they have more points, Arisu said at the beginning the link ups purpose is not just to have more points but because its impossible for the other team to find out how many points they each have. 1v1 they know how many points the other has when its deducted, with a link up they have no clue which person has more points since they only see the total.

cade-carter

Wheres our OP reaction? also goated reaction, will only be rivaled by ep 7

Redbone

I'm loving them beards on the couch, men.

Will

Niragi is really the character who annoyed me the most In AIB

Anya

Same here🥹 Your too nice. It's actually a shit time lol I totally agree on those places! Or even Clone Wars timeline! The characters/arcs to conceptualize rides and attractions are infinite! Imagine Darth Maul and Savage walking around?! Ok ima stop because I can go on and on lol

Betsy

Mine too as you know. Haha They're going to love it!!

Brian

The show would be a 10/10 without Niragi, totally pointless bringing bro back from the dead so many times lmao

Anya

Kyuma being a mentor and opponent was confusing at first. I was like, are you for me or against me?! 🤣😂 Just a testament to how good his character is. No weapons allowed and only fair play. They have the upper hand because of their close relationship. They value each other equally and aren't afraid to fight/die for one another. Right now, we're looking rough. Arisu and Usagi are still tense from their previous convo. Tatta and Kuina are insecure. Niragi idgaf is an ass. You guys did good keeping up with the rules and I loved your plans and theories lol Favorite game is coming up I'm stoked!!

Betsy

Same. He gives me the ick.... seriously vile 🤢

Anya

I have a deep-rooted hatred for Niragi and his fckn tongue. He's an irredeemable scumbag. Kyuma’s speech about exposing people's true humanity fits well with that asshat. Sorry, he makes me violent.

Studio Geck

We are HUGE Star Wars nerds which is slightly sad times these days😭 the original trilogy theme would have been way cooler, but I just wish so bad it could be like coruscant/kamino/naboo

Anya

The girls getting out-parkoured and out-karated 😩😭

Betsy

Ditto! And it's getting closer to my first favorite game 🤭

Lydia

yayyy im tuned in now

Lydia

Cannon! the blue is good look 👍🏽🦋

Qhoa

Luka Monsaraz

saving the best for last i see

Will

I can’t wait for ep 3!!

SuperChuckABoo

Petition for all the Gek boys to grow mustaches

Anya

Jack in Galaxy’s Edge?! I'm sooo jelly beans!! Yes, Carter same! I wish it was Prequel Era! Did you know the original concept was actually Tatooine/Endor themed?! Idgaf bout the sequels- besides Kylo Ren lol Okay sorry off topic! I just got excited hearing y'all talk Star Wars! Back to the Borderlands! 🫣🙃😃

Cannon Andrus

Dang that sounds epic

PST3

Cannon would like the Japanese Drama Buzzer Beat it has the King of Clubs and the Mad Hatter as rivals in a basketball team. There is also romance with one of minor characters from from The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift.
