This season really
doesn't disappoint. As of this week, I'm really getting a hard time picking
favorites because most series are already getting into me. BTOOOM! as one of the series I've already liked
since the beginning, I like how it's been very consistent with its style. The
story telling is just good, the intensity of the battle between players is
amazing and the characters are just great.
Now before getting
to the great bits of this episode, I'd like to go through Kira Kousuke (Sawashiro Miyuki).
First off, Sawashiro really did an amazing job in him. She's really good at
this kind of characters which makes me really love her! I just remember her
voicing Sakigami
Toto from Deadman Wonderland.
As I have said last
episode, Kousuke is the type of character that I'd like to see. Seeing his past
strengthens my reason - he's abused by his father and he killed and raped
women. And for the record, he's 14! Damn, that's insane. What happened to him
is definitely because of how he was raised. But okay, seeing him enjoy playing BTOOOM! for approximately 40hrs and saying
that it's a new record was just stupid. As for his father, I know his crazy,
scary and all but Kousuke himself is definitely defective already (okay that
seemed like a wrong way of describing him. LOL).
I have no idea what
is the basis on choosing the people who participates in this game. So okay,
Sakamoto Ryouta is a BTOOOM! player.
He's Japan's no1 player. Himiko's the typical female player who'd play just for
fun and stuff. Taira-san could be a typical office man who also plays OL games.
There are people like that, okay? Their addiction to BTOOOM! could be the reason why they are in this mess. But for
Kousuke's father and lawyer, I don't really see any clear reason why they'll be
in the island or even play BTOOOM! in
the first place.
Now getting to where
episode
3 left off, it's suppose to be the 2nd day of the game and Sakamoto
together with Taira-san meets Kousuke. Just looking at him is definitely scary.
Who wouldn't get freak out by how casual he takes his father's BIMs?
The battle scene
between Sakamoto and Kousuke is my fave part of this episode. It's just really
amazing. Seeing two dedicated players of BTOOOM!
face each other head-on is insane. It's also nice how they notice each other's
abilities right off the bat. Sakamoto even gave rankings. But thinking about
it, it's funny how they can be this good. Probably Kousuke is this good because he's psychotic. And insane
people like him could be good at this but what really surprised me was
Sakamoto. Probably he's a good tactician in the game but take a NEET off the PC
and he's probably nothing but a coward and weak otaku (okay, maybe not entirely but you get the point). ~On a side
note, it's pretty nice that Kousuke actually knows Sakamoto :D (of course he
should, he's addicted to BTOOOM!
anyway).
It wasn't even
surprising that Sakamoto didn't even killed him. Sakamoto doesn't really look
like the character who can kill yet. As of now, I still view him as someone who
can't kill anyone and hasn't really been influence by the craziness of this
scheme. Could he be someone (as the main character) who can find a way out of
this mess without actually killing people? Either way, looks like Taira-san's
not killing anyone either but he's picking up radars for survival. Makes me
wonder if he'll change his way of thinking soon and actually start killing
people.
Based on the preview, we'll finally see Sakamoto and Himiko
together. It's a team of three! That won't be a nice team. It's not going to be
cut off for survival. Anyway, what I'd like to see here is how Sakamoto will
convince Himiko to join them :3 And I'm really itching to find out what's up
with those BTOOOM!'s makers. Why the heck did they set this
survival game?!（ /ﾟ Дﾟ）/
