An aimless gamer and his two friends find themselves in a parallel Tokyo, where they're forced to compete in a series of sadistic games to survive.

The games are deadlier, this world more wild and cruel; but will Arisu ever make it back to the real world — and will it be worth everything he's lost?

I am 6 episodes into season 1 and the only thing this show has going for it is the ludicrous mini-games and the good-looking cast. The plot is nonsense and the dialog is a cringe-fest. On the bright side, I can see Tao Tsuchiya as Faith Connors in a Mirror's Edge™ series, but she needs a better parkour instructor. Sadly, I doubt Electronic Arts cares enough about ME™ to finance a series for it. One was announced years ago, then nothing ever happened. I'm gonna speed through the last couple episodes, and after that, I think I'm done. This garbage has a higher rating than Penny Dreadful (2014) here on TMDB. Que?!

What a great TV show. It reminds me another great TV show "Squid Game". If you like that one, you will like this one too.
First two seasons are fun to watch 3rd is poop
