I gotta say, out of all the AiB reactions on YT, this was the most fun to watch. Not too much talking and lot’s of funny moments and the never ending rush hour refs 👌👌👌♥️♥️♥️
Just like the players have to win games to stay alive and earn visas, the dealers also have to earn visas, but can only do so if the players lose the game. So since they won that 10 of hearts game, the dealers in that room were killed with laser beams.
1 or 2,3 Questions....why did Momoka kill herself for the game, when the video showed us that she was in despair because of all the death she caused? Or did the game adapt because she died? (Half Question...did the game 10 of hearts start because of the mad haters death or because of momokas?)
@@sigridmeyer9667 in the manga Momoka doesn’t like killing people so she was kinda ready to die anyways so she volunteered them to be the dealers of the game. It was rumored that if you kill 100 people that you could return to the original world so both would get what they wanted in the end
@@sigridmeyer9667 I took it bc hatter was killed and momoka killed herself cuz she can't take anymore the game took momokas body and used it as a game as punishment for hatters death ( but I have absolutely no idea)
Chishiya is definitely not a team player. He's the embodiment of the "Cheshire Cat" from Alice in Wonderland. We could have a big expectation on Season 2 because the manga is really good. The Face Cards games are really something.
Believe me, the face card games are something else and we're not ready for it. The difficulty, the tension, the physical demand will be in highest levels. The next season is going to be more than a banger!
@@nez01 Yes, I did. Some of The face card games in it were the best survival games I have ever known and I can't wait to see how they adapt it to the live action show
Chishiya - English translation, “Cheshire,” referring to the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland - or Nike as you keep calling him, isn’t really good or bad overall; rather he’s against you or with you depending on if you’re interests work or don’t work with his. So you’d be right not to trust him but wrong to write him off - he’s not evil, he just wants to survive by any means necessary.
The thing with Chishiya (Nike as you call him lol), is that if you read the manga you can see that this man just does not care about life whatsoever, being his own life or the lives of others, which is why he's so calm in all these scenarios. He's not evil by any means, this man is just trying to survive at this point lol. I wouldn't trust him but I sure as hell would want to be allies with him, cause he's too damn smart to not be allies with lmao. I personally think he's the smartest one in the whole show
22:47 Very good way to put it. After I finished season 1 I read the manga from start to finish and I think the reason why things get so unrealistic in the show is because it's just more so suited for manga /anime and things get a little goofy in a live adaptation (ex. punching a tiger, real life that's not happening but in an anime or page in a manga totally fine).
Yeah, I agree. The characters in AiB are way more relatable. And it always feels like the stakes are higher in AiB, which makes everything more intense.
I love AIB more. It gives justice to its genre: Mystery, sci-fi, thriller. Every episodes are thrilling and many questions were lingering around, making it more intriguing. It also has twists and turns that are mostly unpredictable,even the plot itself is unpredictable. Characters of AIB are soo good and everyone has their own unique stories. Even side character with minimal amount of screentime shined in the series. I love SG too but some subplot, even the plot itself, are bland and predictable, mostly doesn't have any great twists. Games are more likely based on luck and the mc has a "main character" plot armor. Characters are what made this series good, and its concept. Plus the displays are so aesthetically pleasing. Overall, I love AIB moreee. It's a death game and it gives justice to that concept.
This series is the adaptation of a graphic novel, the manga "Alice in Borderland" released in 2015 and the writer Haro Aso created this fantasy and unrealistic world. This show was based on it, they changed some details but stayed close to the original for the whole. Damn the face card games are going to be such an incredible experience for us at the end of this year.
I hope that you guys are one of us that are patiently waiting for Season 2 of Alice in Borderland (last quarter of 2022 as announced). Because that will explain everything that has been questioning us since the start of the series like: - The character of Chishiya (or Nike as you guys call him). Yeah he may be good or bad depending on the person he is with. But there is an explanation why his character is like that. Hopefully they will feature his story in S2. - The real reason behind Alice and all of people in Tokyo (at least) are in the Borderlands. - The true identity of the Game Masters (the lady in black who said that the players will play for the face cards is actually one of the Game Masters) - And the face card games (the higher the face card, the harder the game).
I personally think Alice in Borderland is better cause there is also soooo many Easter eggs people miss when watching Alice in borderland that tells you a lot about the entire story and could answer all your questions. One example is each characters name and their names in the past. Squid Games has a more realistic approach but it was not as exciting and felt a little flat at times. Where Alice in borderland feels more thrilling and exciting plus the fact that it was based on a manga and they did an amazing job with portraying that. ( the games are also way better)
Yess..finally the awaited episode of the whole season..ii love how they left everyone (including myself) wondering wtf and wanting more P.S. I love you guys reactions💜
Great reaction as always, I especially enjoyed watching Loki, what a good boy!💜 I'm glad to hear you'll be watching "All of Us Are Dead".See you then!!!😉
I loved your reaction and it was fun for your meme comments and how you were able to understand it. Can’t wait for season 2 reaction and Sweet home reaction.
First off, great reactions! Really enjoyed this one! Imo, despite being a cliff hanger, we did get a ton of reveals which kinda wrapped up most of the first season. It did feel a bit "anime" compared to squid game, which is supposed to be a more realistic setting, but I also feel like it's the purpose of the show. Remember that this is a play on Alice in Wonderland, characters mirror Wonderland characters, so the mysterious element doesn't really feel forced imo. oh FYI since you guys seemed bummed about the end, season 2 will definitely end the series I've heard, it's supposed to be great so we'll see how they pull it off but I'm excited for that :D cheers!
I like this one more than squid game just like most people who had watched both but I can get what y'all saying I think one of the biggest reasons why squid game become so popular aside from it being a Kdrama is that it's easy to digest, viewers really don't need to think much when watching it as the game rules are simple and we get most of our questions answered from the very beginning, while Alice In Borderland is way more complex both with it's plot and game rules. It's full of mysteries and it can feel more stressful to watch when you don't have any idea where the story is going to go next and whether it's gonna punch you completely off guard. I heard someone says that Squid Games are for casual watchers while Alice In Borderland are for enthusiasts and I completely agree with that
Yep, for me squid game is a LITE version. But still, i love the squid game actors, they act this series so perfect & more natural. And AIB storyline was on the next level compare with squid game storyline, but idk somehow AIB acting kind of awkward especially the samurai guy. So, for me squidgame got the acting/chemistry and AIB got the storyline
@@kme5349 fr tho, I finished it like a week ago. I admit its a bit slow, but not too slow. If anything its the good type of slow, it builds up towards the end. And all hell breaks loose
Believe me, you can't do shit against Aguni unless he allows you to. I wonder how they do the King of Spades game, the first card to show up since it was the most brutal game that only Aguni, the strongest one can beat it, and now his body got holes...
I love Alice in Borderland more than Squid Game. I don't know it's because I watched too many Death Game Movies or because I read the manga, but perhaps most Indonesians would agree that squid game is too mild for its genre. Honestly I don't know why people so hyped up about it. Perhaps it's their micro expression acting. The reason why it's not realistic, hm, I don't want to spoil it but the terminology of Borderland or "Ima wa kuni" in Japanese especially on budhism is quite a Fantasy.
Moreover, there are too many cliches put into the story, such as : 1. There is one sole winner. 2. Game master would play as player. 3. Best friend would kill each other. 4. Protagonist would give money to deceased' family. 5. Protagonist would abandon their prize money. etc.
I have the same thoughts! I think bec the games are more “relatable” or “familiar” to more people compared to AOB. My aunt also said Squid Game is not too gory compared to AOB (I only urged her to continue watching the whole AOB series bec she stopped at Ep 2 lol)
I enjoyed this series and your reactions made it even more enjoyable! 😊Pls, pls do reactions to Sweet Home and Hellbound,. East Asian Netflix is where it's at for me in 2022! 😂
loved you guys' reaction to this series and were really funny. hope to see you guys react to Hellbound or Sweet home those are really good and entertaining.
I love these goggle box videos you guys are doing! Your reaction when the girl died from a laser, really cracked me up! So many funny moments! Can't wait for the next one! Thanks for the laughs!!
I am looking forward for a new korean/japanese series on Netflix, you are so funny I love your reactions ( I agree with you on the review of this show ) and hope you will react to something like the Korean drama „my Name“ I recommend, Strangers from Hell, Save Me, Sweet Home and D.P not the same topic as my name but also really good
You guys are so entertaining to watch, first episode with no Rush Hour references though:( I definitely felt the same stress and frustration at the end of this episode. But I'd love to see your reactions to Arcane, would you consider reacting?
Squid game was meant to be more realistic and this more fantasy. The first episode with the lazering from the sky I thought made the difference clear. The overall cast may be even better, even bit parts were good. There wasn't such an emphasis on the main protagonist as SG, which I didn't mind. Squid Game had a tighter script, though he was working on it for over a decade. Only the last 2 episodes of AiB felt like the editing was loose to me. In both SG and AiB I thought the penultimate episode was the weakest. I wish there was more direct backstory (like characters recounting) than flashback in AiB. The final game in SG wasnt that interesting. It was more interesting in AiB but they dragged it out. SG depended more on luck, games in AiB had to be worked out. The ending in AiB made more sense, they have play on, but in SG people can question why he doesn't see his daughter.
@@hashimkhan9579 not really, the shows have different purposes and messages and that's why they differ. To be honest it's kind of stupid to pit them against each other.
The 2 girls worked as dealers aka they made the requisitions for the game to start. Mimosa was tasked with killing herself. Also all the dealers were killed when the girl came out.
I personally think this was better than Squid game because it’s more fast paced and the storyline is more thought through than squid game (in my opinion). But I understand this show can be over the top for some people your reaction was great 💫
Well, ok. I’m glad you guys enjoyed the show, at least. 🤷🏽♀️ That’s a fair review and it makes complete sense. I guess those who enjoyed it more than Squid Game liked the sci-fi thriller, fast pace, anime-like feel to the show. I can’t speak for them, but that’s why I personally like it more, but that’s just me. It might also be because of the strategies involved with the games because they are more mind games than Squid Game’s physical games were a strategy isn’t always called for, (unless you want to call hiding behind someone in Red Light, Green Light a strategy 🤷🏽♀️) But I totally understand and I respect your guy’s respectful review. I’m just glad you guys at least enjoyed it. Can’t wait for season 2!
I do see why you think squid game is better than this show. The characters are more realistic and complex, and the story is more cohesive and perhaps better written. But I personally enjoyed watching this show a lot more. I can't really pinpoint what it is, but I've rewatched this show countless times. Whereas I couldn't do that with squid game. I'm also more attached to the characters in AIB for some reason.
>squid game characters are more realistic and complex >I'm also more attached to the characters in AIB for some reason Well, you have your answer, the characters in Aib are more complex and better written. Just remember what they did to us in just 3 episodes.
I watched AIB twice on my own and watched tons of reaction videos whereas I only watched Squid Games once and have no more interest watching it again even in reaction videos.
It'll make sense in the end. Yeah I read the manga. it has a totally different setting than Squid Game. Alice is more of the sci-fi/fantasy genre and it is supposed to be unrealistic, unlike with Squid game which happens in the real world. I mean this series is inspired by Alice in Wonderland, so it is supposed to be a fantasy. Alice in wonderland is about going to a different world, so same as this series. anyway, I can't wait for them to face the game master. I don't know if anyone has mentioned this: some connection with Alice in Wonderland, maybe more. Arisu is Alice pronounced in japanese. Usagi (the climber girl) means rabbit in japanese. Chishiya (nike guy) is Cheshire if pronounced in japanese Hatter -> as in Mad Hatter
One thing i know some people complain about is how unrealistic aib is, but that’s the whole point, the show was never meant to be realistic. Aib falls more into the sci fi/fantasy/thriller genre. But overall, enjoy your guys reactions 🤣
To be fair, this season condensed a lot of chapters and volumes from the Manga. Because of that, I can see why it could be considered to have too many twists. Still, every single moment of AIB still had me hooked, more so than Squid Games. For me, SG’s story didn’t feel as deep and the pacing was too slow at some points. I still prefer AIB over SG. Really enjoyed watching you guys’ reactions, would love to see you all react to Season 2 as well!
You guys keep comparing alice to squid game, but alice came out first and alice is from Manga. When squid game came out people were saying squid game is definitely inspired by alice and Darumasan ga koronda. Check it out :)
I had a great time watching your reactions to this show. I really hope you guys will consider watching Sweet Home, a South Korean horror show that is also on Netflix. I really think you guys would enjoy it. Thanks for the videos!
Okay, I've only discovered your channel yesterday and binged these reactions. I restrained myself for the past 7 videos but I can't anymore...your dog is so fucking cute! An absolute scene stealer! A star! The clever commentary is great too, I guess. But the dog!
appereantly season 2 will be out in december. i've read the manga and if season 2 is going to be as good as the manga it will be f*cked up and amazing. Can't wait to see your reactions when season 2 comes out
I think this was better then squid game because they gave more even with the twist and I also feel like squid game is popular because of kpop getting so worldwide so it just jump on the train cause it really wasn't much more happening in there then alice in borderline
That’s not a fair comparison at all because Squid Games season 1 is a show on its own and technically it doesn’t need season 2 it can end there and it has a more forced cliffhanger while AIB which is based on Manga is meant to be a 2-season series, so season 1 is meant to be incomplete leaving some people unsatisfied with the ending. It may seem chaotic and too many twists but it serves the purpose of introducing all the important characters and lay a great foundation for season 2. Just because season 1 of AIB leaves more questions unanswered doesn’t make Squid Games better than AIB. The games in AIB are more varied and the scale is massive, some of them require more thinking. They allow people to reflect on so many things (humanity, equality, value of life, trust, family, friendship and love). Most importantly, the show is about the meaning of life and the will to live and survive. It’s more grand than playing games for the sake of money as in Squid Games. In Squid Game, when people choose to join the games again after they return to the outside world, they’re in a sense escaping from the real life leaving all their shits behind with the hope to win money; whereas a big contrast in AIB is that people have no choice but to play the games to survive. And AIB is not just about the poor people in debt as in Squid Games but all people with different background and stories. Further, AIB is not just about survival, the series keep showing some people who didn’t want to return to the original world and some do, some strived to live from the beginning to the end, it’s more about who you’re living for, why you live, and the meaning of life, which are all grand concepts amongst all the little game theories and storylines. While I respect your opinions and personal preferences, it’s quite disappointing to see that you’ve been giving lower scores for the last few episodes of AIB while I can see that you did genuinely like AIB when you begin the show when you were not influenced by those people’s comments. It just feels like y’all are kinda influenced by the comments of people bashing you for liking AIB more than Squid Games and go with those people’s opinions. Squid game is easy to digest because of all the simple games and storylines, it’s straightforward and only goes to the surface, that’s why people get it immediately, but AIB is so much deeper and requires more reflection and thinking, which is understandable why it would be harder for people to get it immediate or even appreciate all the concepts, rationales and theories behind. I understand how you feel after season 1 but everything shown in AIB actually has a meaning to it. It’s vital for the second half of the show to be like that instead of being more cohesive just to give more context and lay more foundation for season 2. Everything unclear in this season including the characters is explained and indeed well explained in season 2.
I agree that Squid games has a better storyline but this show kept me entertained whereas squid games half the episodes were kinda boring. Two different vibes. Loved watching your reactions tho
the games in Alice in Borderland are way more challenging than Squid Game too. it plays with your brain and physical which i think it's very cool and exciting to watch since the genre itself is a thriller so Alice in Borderland is definitely it.
I gotta say, out of all the AiB reactions on YT, this was the most fun to watch. Not too much talking and lot’s of funny moments and the never ending rush hour refs 👌👌👌♥️♥️♥️
Fr!! Love the rush hour quips
This is why I always come back ❤️😂✨
I loved the rush hour references I might actually rewatch the movies lol
Just like the players have to win games to stay alive and earn visas, the dealers also have to earn visas, but can only do so if the players lose the game. So since they won that 10 of hearts game, the dealers in that room were killed with laser beams.

Squid Game had a tighter script, though he was working on it for over a decade. Only the last 2 episodes of AiB felt like the editing was loose to me. In both SG and AiB I thought the penultimate episode was the weakest. I wish there was more direct backstory (like characters recounting) than flashback in AiB. The final game in SG wasnt that interesting. It was more interesting in AiB but they dragged it out. SG depended more on luck, games in AiB had to be worked out. The ending in AiB made more sense, they have play on, but in SG people can question why he doesn't see his daughter.
Don't try to defend squid game... SG Is average as compared to AIB
@@hashimkhan9579 not really, the shows have different purposes and messages and that's why they differ. To be honest it's kind of stupid to pit them against each other.
@@NaFran49 finally a reasonable take. Also I think squid game was better 😂
For me AIB is so much better because it's just so interesting and unpredictable and gets u hooked every episode. It's unrealistically amazing 👍
And yeah aib is a live action and adapted from a manga and as u know in mangas and animes they tend to be more dramatic and unrealistic.
The 2 girls worked as dealers aka they made the requisitions for the game to start. Mimosa was tasked with killing herself. Also all the dealers were killed when the girl came out.
I personally think this was better than Squid game because it’s more fast paced and the storyline is more thought through than squid game (in my opinion). But I understand this show can be over the top for some people your reaction was great 💫
Thx for the reaction
Well, ok. I’m glad you guys enjoyed the show, at least. 🤷🏽♀️
That’s a fair review and it makes complete sense. I guess those who enjoyed it more than Squid Game liked the sci-fi thriller, fast pace, anime-like feel to the show. I can’t speak for them, but that’s why I personally like it more, but that’s just me.
It might also be because of the strategies involved with the games because they are more mind games than Squid Game’s physical games were a strategy isn’t always called for, (unless you want to call hiding behind someone in Red Light, Green Light a strategy 🤷🏽♀️)
But I totally understand and I respect your guy’s respectful review. I’m just glad you guys at least enjoyed it. Can’t wait for season 2!
I do see why you think squid game is better than this show. The characters are more realistic and complex, and the story is more cohesive and perhaps better written. But I personally enjoyed watching this show a lot more. I can't really pinpoint what it is, but I've rewatched this show countless times. Whereas I couldn't do that with squid game.
I'm also more attached to the characters in AIB for some reason.
>squid game characters are more realistic and complex
>I'm also more attached to the characters in AIB for some reason
Well, you have your answer, the characters in Aib are more complex and better written. Just remember what they did to us in just 3 episodes.
I watched AIB twice on my own and watched tons of reaction videos whereas I only watched Squid Games once and have no more interest watching it again even in reaction videos.
last episode 💔💔 pls watch sweet home next 😫😫
You guys should react to sweet home, it’s an amazing show.
Yes, these locations exist in Japan. However, they didn't shoot on the actual location. Instead, they built a massive set in green screen.
You guys should react to D.P. on Netflix. It's a good show that won't disappoint!
Omg this was so much fun to watch w/ y’all 😌 now all you have to do is watch ‘sweet home’
I've been waiting for you guys 😍
Alice is WAY BETTER than squid games hands down 🤷♀️
Ikr clearly no competition here. AIB is way better
You guysssss season 2 is out now, we need more reactions from you guys😍😍
The Gifted and The Gifted graduation - Thailand
Blacklist - Thailand
YALL LIKE EAGLE EYE TOO??? i rewatch it all the time it really is underrated lmfao
Amazing movie
look at this kdrama it's called it's okay to not be okay it's really nice
React to sweet home 💅✔
How did the guy get set on fire (by Nike), fall off the roof of a hotel and walk back into the hotel and shoot people?
He fell into the pool, it's explained in the manga
It'll make sense in the end. Yeah I read the manga. it has a totally different setting than Squid Game. Alice is more of the sci-fi/fantasy genre and it is supposed to be unrealistic, unlike with Squid game which happens in the real world. I mean this series is inspired by Alice in Wonderland, so it is supposed to be a fantasy. Alice in wonderland is about going to a different world, so same as this series.
anyway, I can't wait for them to face the game master.
I don't know if anyone has mentioned this: some connection with Alice in Wonderland, maybe more.
Arisu is Alice pronounced in japanese.
Usagi (the climber girl) means rabbit in japanese.
Chishiya (nike guy) is Cheshire if pronounced in japanese
Hatter -> as in Mad Hatter
I love how they call Chishiya “Nike” instead of “Chishiya” 😭
One thing i know some people complain about is how unrealistic aib is, but that’s the whole point, the show was never meant to be realistic. Aib falls more into the sci fi/fantasy/thriller genre. But overall, enjoy your guys reactions 🤣
You guys should react to D.P is sooo goood
Genuinely enjoy your reactions,
Hope Hope Vincenzo is next 🙏🏿
To be fair, this season condensed a lot of chapters and volumes from the Manga. Because of that, I can see why it could be considered to have too many twists. Still, every single moment of AIB still had me hooked, more so than Squid Games. For me, SG’s story didn’t feel as deep and the pacing was too slow at some points. I still prefer AIB over SG.
Really enjoyed watching you guys’ reactions, would love to see you all react to Season 2 as well!
Ahhhh the fastest I've ever clicked 😅😅
Dude cabin the woods was such a great movie!
You guys keep comparing alice to squid game, but alice came out first and alice is from Manga. When squid game came out people were saying squid game is definitely inspired by alice and Darumasan ga koronda. Check it out :)
I had a great time watching your reactions to this show. I really hope you guys will consider watching Sweet Home, a South Korean horror show that is also on Netflix. I really think you guys would enjoy it. Thanks for the videos!
Okay, I've only discovered your channel yesterday and binged these reactions. I restrained myself for the past 7 videos but I can't anymore...your dog is so fucking cute! An absolute scene stealer! A star! The clever commentary is great too, I guess. But the dog!
okay but we still didn't know how all the population disapear
I can't wait for season 2 ❤️✨
appereantly season 2 will be out in december.
i've read the manga and if season 2 is going to be as good as the manga it will be f*cked up and amazing.
Can't wait to see your reactions when season 2 comes out
Please watch sweet home, it's the best.
Always loving your reactions guys!
I hope you could react on Sweet Home or Taxi Driver or Vicenzo. 😊😁
I think this was better then squid game because they gave more even with the twist and I also feel like squid game is popular because of kpop getting so worldwide so it just jump on the train cause it really wasn't much more happening in there then alice in borderline
Loved the reaction and your dog is so cute^^
IM WAITING FOR SEASON TWO OMGG I LOVE ITT!! you need to watch sweet home, is a Korean masterpiece!!!
i can't imagine you guys watching strangers from hell, it's stressful as hell
Sisyphus: The Myth next. On Netflix, Korean show. Sci-fi 16 episodes.
Y'all should definitely start itaewon class or sweet home. These are my favourites!
After watching season 2... alice is better than squid game... 😂✌
AiB season 2 makes the whole series beat the f out of Squid Game.
The s2 explained better why it was so difficult for them to die jsjd
That’s not a fair comparison at all because Squid Games season 1 is a show on its own and technically it doesn’t need season 2 it can end there and it has a more forced cliffhanger while AIB which is based on Manga is meant to be a 2-season series, so season 1 is meant to be incomplete leaving some people unsatisfied with the ending. It may seem chaotic and too many twists but it serves the purpose of introducing all the important characters and lay a great foundation for season 2. Just because season 1 of AIB leaves more questions unanswered doesn’t make Squid Games better than AIB.
The games in AIB are more varied and the scale is massive, some of them require more thinking. They allow people to reflect on so many things (humanity, equality, value of life, trust, family, friendship and love).
Most importantly, the show is about the meaning of life and the will to live and survive. It’s more grand than playing games for the sake of money as in Squid Games. In Squid Game, when people choose to join the games again after they return to the outside world, they’re in a sense escaping from the real life leaving all their shits behind with the hope to win money; whereas a big contrast in AIB is that people have no choice but to play the games to survive. And AIB is not just about the poor people in debt as in Squid Games but all people with different background and stories. Further, AIB is not just about survival, the series keep showing some people who didn’t want to return to the original world and some do, some strived to live from the beginning to the end, it’s more about who you’re living for, why you live, and the meaning of life, which are all grand concepts amongst all the little game theories and storylines.
While I respect your opinions and personal preferences, it’s quite disappointing to see that you’ve been giving lower scores for the last few episodes of AIB while I can see that you did genuinely like AIB when you begin the show when you were not influenced by those people’s comments. It just feels like y’all are kinda influenced by the comments of people bashing you for liking AIB more than Squid Games and go with those people’s opinions.
Squid game is easy to digest because of all the simple games and storylines, it’s straightforward and only goes to the surface, that’s why people get it immediately, but AIB is so much deeper and requires more reflection and thinking, which is understandable why it would be harder for people to get it immediate or even appreciate all the concepts, rationales and theories behind.
I understand how you feel after season 1 but everything shown in AIB actually has a meaning to it. It’s vital for the second half of the show to be like that instead of being more cohesive just to give more context and lay more foundation for season 2. Everything unclear in this season including the characters is explained and indeed well explained in season 2.
Sweet home is Korean series on Netflix please you will really enjoy it
I still don’t know why the two dealers mean mugged Arisu & Usigi in the beginning.
You have to play the next games or you'll be dead right after the King of Spades card appeared
Please react to Sweet Home next, y'all will definitely love it
Hope you could react to Itaewon Class next! 😊
I really recommend watching sweet home. It really good
Remember it's based on a manga so I chuck most those unrealistic moments to that
I think The girl in black is the queen of heart? and we all know that the heart game is the hardest.
I agree that Squid games has a better storyline but this show kept me entertained whereas squid games half the episodes were kinda boring. Two different vibes. Loved watching your reactions tho
Exactly my point. AIB all the way
agreed
the games in Alice in Borderland are way more challenging than Squid Game too. it plays with your brain and physical which i think it's very cool and exciting to watch since the genre itself is a thriller so Alice in Borderland is definitely it.
AIB best❤️
