More than Satisfying!

Things I loved this season:

* Unpopular opinion maybe : but Arisu and Usagi's romance was soooo cuteee. I looked forward for their interactions the most. In the last episode, where they lie on the ground and tell each other what they wished to do together was the only emotional scene that moved me this season.

* Everyone's acting was spot on. No flaw whatsoever. The audience could feel what each character goes through perfectly.

* Loved some of the gamemasters (yamapi as king of clubs was unexpected but his character was oddly touching). Also, loved the Queen of Hearts and King of Diamonds. Disliked the other two (king and queen of spades)

* Loved Chishiya this season. The games in which he was in were the only ones I enjoyed. He also had good character development towards the end.

* The action scenes were well done . Especially in Episode 7. That episode is sure to keep you on your toes. The CGI was also top notch and realistic.

* Near perfect ending. Everything made sense. I'm fine with them not remembering each other but wanted everyone of them to meet. It could have given more closure. But, this ending was beautiful too. Kuina is my favourite character in the whole series and seeing her father accepting her was so 💖


Things I disliked:

* The games were not as interesting as the first season - they hyped it up to be tougher than the number cards but they were meh. Most (almost all) were predictable.

* Therefore, Arisu didn't use too much wit in the games (there was no need to imo, most games didn't need any kind of strategy - he basically didn't play any diamond games here). My main love for aib 1 was Arisu's intellect.

* I know it's necessary for the whole purpose of returning back to the real world, but there was too many emotional scenes that bored me. The dialogues in these scenes didn't make me feel anything (I just wanted them to end quickly)

* I still can't believe that asshole Niragi survived. Also, arrow girl and even Ann survived (which is nice). It seemed a bit unrealistic but still it made sense because they were in the Borderlands and had a strong will to survive. (I'm just mad that while these ppl survived, Chota and Karube still died)

Overall: 9/10 (the pros outweighed the cons and I was way too attached to the characters 😬)
