Preliminary (4/13 eps)

Final verdict - average across the board, but not in a terrible way

A lot of the reviews here are quite dissenting so I'll offer an alternate perspective. From the fast food anime industry comes another mid banger 'Kami wa Game ni Ueteiru'. A story about how, in a futuristic world, humans must play games against Gods and win. If you win 11? games you get to make any wish you want!

Now if you compare this to classics like CoTE and NGNL you are bound to hate this show with a passion. This show, much like a $3.99 McDouble is meant to let you switch ...

Watching this is as enjoyable as eating slices of slightly dried out lukewarm cucumber.

Generic story - generic art style - generic one dimensional characters.

They try to lean into the "No Game no Life" aesthetic - which is fine I guess, originality is not a requirement for something to be good - but it doesn't even work a little bit, the material that's here is just ass. The games and their solutions make no sense, none of the characters have any depth, and the animation is plain bad. It's just more of that boring, same old shit you've seen a million times before. Not worth your ...

Preliminary (4/13 eps)

This is just the most dull and soulless show for something that should be engaging and fun to watch.

Characters are bland. OP main character who everyone wants to ride the meat of and who's power is literally I win, fuck you. And his intelligence is such a mood killer (more on that with the games). Then there's standard red haired waifu who's got a temper and wants bigger tits, and the girl who has the bigger tits and is just dumb, supposed to be silly and looks like the object of fanservice. Nothing special or interesting

Plot and world are decent but nothing noteworthy by ...

Gods' Games We Play - Man, imitation shows that try to go all No Game, No Life-ish, just fail so badly that it isn't funny at all.

We already all know what a great series of novelist Yuu Kamiya's No Game, No Life is like, there's just no need to explain that further. However, what needs to be mentioned is the multitude of imitation works like it...case in point, last Summer's Liar Liar, which was a half-ass effort in said series. If that doesn't scrape the bottom of the barrel any further, boy, do I have the perfect show for you: novelist Kei Sazane's Kami wa ...

Bad bad bad

Title: Kami wa Game ni Ueteiru (The God Is Playing a Game)

Story Uniqueness: While the premise of gods interacting with humans through a game is intriguing, the execution falls short. The story lacks uniqueness and fails to engage the audience effectively.

Art Style: Unfortunately, the art style is one of the worst I’ve encountered. The visuals failed to capture the essence of the narrative, and the character designs needed significant improvement.

Character Development: The characters in this series are disappointingly one-dimensional. They lack depth, and their flaws outweigh any strengths they might possess. Better character drawings could have elevated their impact.

Realistic Reactions: The characters’ reactions ...

100% would recommend!
It's funny, charismatic and a noteworthy place of nostalgia. You have a mixture of games from all who want to play to the message it brings, that no matter the losses you encounter, it's always fun as long as you have someone to play with. Anyone who states this is mid, has never felt alone. I love this anime because of the people you can be engaged with. This anime is far from boring and in my opinion better then some of the anime people find interesting. If you want a play by play of games, a hint of memories forgotten, and ...

Ah, the allure of the psychological thriller/game genre—an intricate dance of intellect and intrigue that leaves viewers on the edge of their seats, craving more. Alas, "Kami wa Game ni Ueteiru" endeavors to join the ranks of its esteemed predecessors, but it falls short in more ways than one.

This first game battle is memoMemorymean. Come on.
Picture, if you will, a game of MemoMemorynsformed into an intense battle between our two main characters. Sounds intriguing. Unfortunately, the execution falls flat, landing squarely in the realm of cringe rather than captivating.

And let's not mince words here: what this anime lacks in intensity, uniqueness, and genuine enjoyment could ...

Good
- The audio is good.
- The games are not boring. Episode 2 and 4 had a lot of action.
- The premise is easy to understand.
- I like the purple outlines on the characters, it makes it look like No Game No Life.
- The show is silly

Bad
- The main character looks generic. I want my complicated hair in anime.
- The main character is generic on the inside too. He has zero personality or likes/dislikes

Last year, for reasons beyond my control, I was subjected to Liar Liar, a thoroughly awful show on games that wastes half an episode explaining some asinine rule, only for the MC to pull off an asspull to win whatever impossible game he's faced with. Now, faced with a similar predicament, I once again find myself in a similar situation watching a very similar show... only, maybe this time... could it actually be kinda decent?

The answer is no. As novel as the premise is (thank God too), a combination of bland characters and bad writing kills any potential this show may have. Any moment you ...

In a world where the gods have decided to entertain themselves, by making humans play in their games. Where humans only hope to win ten times to make a wish come true.

In Gods’ Game We Play, do we follow the human Fay and the former god Leoleshea. We see them go through different gods games, in hopes of both getting their ten wins. On the way we see them meet other characters and together try and win the games of the gods.

The plot throughout the show is very much built around playing the god games and finding people to join their team. It is very ...

I wanted to give it a chance. I watched as many as 4 episodes and then raised the white flag. Animation slightly below average. Personalities and dialogues as deep as a puddle. The plot is painfully predictable. A completely generic MC who blushes at the sight of a bit of flesh and looks away as if he's never seen the opposite sex. His wish after winning all this prize from the Gods is so completely hopeless compared to what he could wish for, that I was a little choked up when I heard it. Cute girls are introduced to be cute - that's all. As ...

This is just your average fan service filled, boring character no game no life remake. Liar liar actually did a decent job at making me hooked on unlike this garbage. The art style is so on and off, I really like the opening song but it's unfortunate it had to go to such a waste of an anime like this. The main character is a newbie who hit it off with the gods' games immediately due to playing a lot of games as a child, in which I see almost no correlation to the actual god's games. It makes no sense. The so called "god" ...

I really wanted to give "Kami wa Game ni Ueteiru" a chance but towards the end of the season, I was holding on for dear life wondering why I did not drop it before. This show lacks inspiration, innovation and excitement, offering little that makes it enjoyable to watch. The characters are uninteresting, especially the main character, Fay, who comes across as one-dimensional and devoid of personality or depth. He just wins game because... well... he's smarter than everyone, or something I guess. The games, which are the big selling point of this anime just feel like there are absolutely no stakes to them, because ...

There's some true regarding a number of commercial, generic and fill-out season anime tropes about Kami was Game ni Ueteiru.

The main character is generic in appearance, he's surrounded by side characters who are, of course, beautiful girls romantically interested in him at different levels, and he has average behavior seen in virtually all kinds of shows today. It doesn't go all the way through generic, but it's almost there.

The series started very slow and with a boring story, I remember dropping it many times, and sometimes, when I was watching, I was so distracted that I couldn't remember half of what had just happened.

It would just be a waste of my time to watch a show that is not worth watching.
We? God? Lord? Or maybe something similar, to be honest I'm sick of hearing it when the characters in this anime keep calling Kami or Dewa, in the future I will use the word Dewa in this review.

The first boring thing about this game-themed anime is in the first episode, You will be presented with a lot of nonsense and rules that you may not understand and only the characters understand what they mean.
Not only that, this nonsense continues for an entire episode! Really? Yes, that's what the ...

I'm mixed on this.

One day, the gods were bored and decided to give humans abilities, wanting to play games with them. Each person receives a unique ability, such as immortality, teleportation, or super strength, to gain an advantage in the God's Games. The rules are simple: win 10 games, and you get a wish granted. Lose 3 games, and you can never play again. However, no human has ever won 10 games, and it's rare to even win 3 games. That is, until our main character (MC) comes along, winning 3 games in a row without a single loss.

From there, they introduce a fallen ...

In a season filled with delightful surprises, this anime is a major letdown.
I'll be piecing crumbs of what I could bear to retain in the 'Think-Pudding' up in my head, so yeah....

Let's start with the protagonist.
He embodies what we know as the "simp" character; blushing at the slightest hint of cleavage, striving to be the good guy, justice for all, and so on. However, this portrayal fails to give him any real individuality. Amd while I appreciate a show that allows a protagonist to shine, I dislike it when the narrative force-feeds us their virtues. Allow the audience some space to discover ...

I don't think it fits the category of a good or a bad anime. It has the right concept to continue on its streak and it doesn't have the right concept to be a stand alone anime.

I'm hoping for another season to clear out any previously created conceptions. It's not an anime that should be among the greats at all, but it's enough to keep it interesting for any season that might come afterwards. Both the story and the suspense are sufficient in that regard and I hope they will keep it up for a possible next season, because otherwise it's a below mediocre show ...
