wtf, this is just Kaiji
Why did no one tell me this sooner? It's not just as if Kaiji got a live action reboot series, it's as if Kaiji got a live action reboot series that was actually good!
The next season looks like it's right around the corner, so I'm glad I've managed to avoid waiting a couple years in anticipation. Just hope the next games don't in any way involve a fucking pachlnko machine
This is not the only kaiji movie. There was a Chinese one Animal World which was explicitly kaiji. That one had super sick fight scenes as well. The west is just waking up to the death game genere.
It is telling thst the Korean version of alienation under capitlaism is proving so popular.
