A temporary replica set of Netflix original drama series “Squid Game,” installed at Itaewon Station in Yongsan, central Seoul, closed earlier than scheduled after doubts over violations of quarantine rules had been raised."
"In response to the growing concerns of the public, the Seoul Metro announced that it will close the operation of the set, Ogame World, on Saturday, a day earlier than the expected closing date."

I deleted because I accidentally posted a spoiler image so I guess I'll post this here. Idk if this is unpopular because I haven't talked to anyone about Squid Game yet but he really annoyed me. He reminded me of a puppy but a puppy I want to kick.
Also what was everyone's favourite game? I loved the tension of the glass hopping game, and the twist in the marbles game with only one person from each team getting to survive.

Femcel sperg ahead
There were only 3 relevant female characters. The cat looking one who is a literal top model, and her marble game partner who's gorgeous too. Both in their 20s. They were given only perfect personality traits. Everyone else is sperging out about dying but these girls are too cool to care, make great sacrifices and have fucking supervillain backstories. Then the third woman who looks closer to average and isn't 19 years old gets all the bad traits. She's made to be the biggest sperg in the show and no one likes her.

I think the show was good. It got kind of splotchy inbetween, mainly when
the organ harvesting subplot began but it was more enjoyable towards the beginning than towards the end. If you like Gantz, Battle Royale or any other survival anime/show you'll like this show. I just wish my dude didn't dye his hair red? He would've made a good Iori from KOF but no…

her death was bullshit btw, she should've won and her friend, but I actually enjoyed whats-her-name despite the fact that she had a bunch of negative traits, that bathroom scene with 067. I feel like she was a good match for all the other selfish players
except for when she literally killed herself just to get revenge on that dude, but I guess that fits her brand of crazy, and the game probably wouldn't have progressed if she didn't.I get why Sangwoo did it, but Ali's death made me really sad. When I saw so many farmers saying they didn't feel bad for Ali, I was like damn. As pathetic as it sounds, that marble game episode is the one where I cried. Anyway, I saw a lot of people saying MC is a shithead for choosing to go after the game creators, and while I agree that he's a huge unlikeable dumbass, I kind of understand why he did it. They were still watching him and knew that he was going to travel to see his daughter, so it kind of makes sense that he would want to end it completely. I just hope he's doing it to protect his family and not for selfish reasons (he probably is though, who am I kidding)Anyway, I'm sorry for the long post.

>>163342I liked her a lot, I think the reason behind it is because her unhinged personality contradicted well with the general show's predictability. She's the only memorable character of the whole show imo. Also HoYeon Jung is way too pretty, she stands out way too much

I generally enjoyed the show especially for how short it is, but I am still shocked that people are hyping it out so much? Is that all because no one ever watched Kaiji or similar stuff? Are normies that limited?
The show is nice but it's also way too overrated. It has some plot holes and stuff too.
>>163335Couldn't stand him as a character either, his 'arc' was also pretty rushed. Really thought this character was just forced by Netflix, after all they add trannies and other shit in every new tv show, whether writers like it or not. Same with the sex scene.

>>163360>>163336Sangwoo was the best character imo. He wasn't the typical deadbeat with a heart of gold, he felt like a real person that was pushed to do terrible things for someone he cared about. My friends disagree, but I think Sangwoo was playing purely for his mother, so him purposefully trying to get his "friends" killed wasn't THAT bad.
And I feel like the show was being extremely hypocritical in trying to portray Sangwoo as a bad person. Hi-gun also "killed" someone, and if Sangwoo didn't push that person they all would have died. A thank you would have been more appropriate than accosting him. /sperg

I was very excited to finish it because it catched my attention but it's like it didn't really left a mark on me like all the series I watch do, probably because it's not an original concept and predictable. However it's so perfectly done to be so popular and mainstream, the formula is just exactly as it has to be. I read that the creator spent six months to write the first two episodes and he lost six teeth (how?) while producing it because of the stress, crazy.
I liked the acting and the music, as well as the production of course, it was amazing. I would have liked a background on the workers, soldiers, etc (the guys with the red tracksuits). There was a theory going around that if you chose the red paper while playing with the guy on the train, it meant you were going to be one of the red guys but it's not possible because we saw people who were participants and chose the red paper, would've been very cool.
Sangwoo was the most interesting character for me too, he was the only one with some kind of complexity and contradictions like an actual human being, I really liked his smart takes as well
Which one was your favorite game? To me the tug of war, the marbles (because they confronted someone they had affinity for) and the glass bridge were horrific to watch but they were also the best ones
No. 163499
>>163477the part of the show that stuck with me the most was when jiyoung sacrificed herself for saebyeok. it was so touching and tragic especially because of how they talked abt hanging out when they got out of the games, even though it wasn’t possible. they had a short lived but very impactful bond.
what struck me the most about this show was the production value, coloring and over all aesthetic of the show. it’s the type of show someone can make endless tumblr aesthetic posts and gif sets about lol
No. 163507
>>163477Agree on the formula part, that’s why I was so surprised by people acting like they’ve never heard of the “abducted to play a deadly game” concept.
Wouldn’t be surprised if in 10 years we have an Isekai type of Netflix show.
I know it’s a sort of Sci-fi type of show but there were so many parts that didn’t make sense to me.
>The staffWho recruit those people? Clearly they need people with some firearm knowledge and diving knowledge (Potentially a doctor onsite). Sometimes people can slip out unnoticed and sometimes the cop can switch costumes and nobody notice, but also they record everyone and make sure everyone is accounted for. Plus the people driving the boat, etc.
> The (hot) copMate maybe leave a note to your boss? Get a geotracker tag on you? Maybe don’t rely on getting some 4g in the middle of nowhere to send your texts?
I also felt like everyone besides Sangwoo was pretty 1 dimensional. I wish they showed the 2 girls friendship growing more along the episodes than quickly within like 2 games.

Nevertheless I really liked the show and the people scoffing at it because of muh intellectual Kaiji and Battle Royale need to take it as it is, survival games are an age-old trope and at least the writer had the balls to admit that he drew inspiration from manga and movies instead of autistically denying it like the author of Hunger Games.

When you really think about it, none of the games were fair and equal, all of them had some handicap to them.
>>165050This is pretty damn disrespectful to me. Her looks were absolutely not a defining trait for her character and she was written to be a jaded, traumatized, desperate person who still wanted to stick to her morals with no tolerance for injustice.

sad and weird but ok

-that kpop looking cop mf is hot.
My biggest gripe with the ending is that all his efforts were seemingly in vain. I hope he's still alive somehow and plays a bigger role in s2-none of the players were really likeable to me (except for the mary sue girls) but out of all of them I liked the main chacter the most, even thought he's kind of dumb.

Of course Reddit and Tumblr and Twitter are crying about how the troon is bad representation and a trans stereotype. They're so close to getting it. He's realistic, portrays the narcissism and retardation of a real troon. Also them crying about the fact he's portrayed by a man and how they'd rather have him portrayed by a cis woman is so funny like they're sooo close to getting it.

>>445109>tranny slapping a woman thanks I hate it.
>>444978my god I'm watching this shit and I'm cringing at him not wanting others to stare at him while playing a game because "he's not done with his procedures", kek. typical insecure tranny. and the funniest thing is he still looks like a man on his first week of transition. in general I hate the whole "this is the inclusive trans talk" that a lot of shows do but this one is even funnier because he's literally just a guy. based
terf granny clocking him from minute one (she's my favorite character so far).

>>445580seeing him do that even if it was a crucial part of that game was such a ITS MAAM moment kek. no wonder trannies hate him, 90% of trannies look just like him.
>>445604this actually sounds fun, should had happened instead of
the black masked guy joining in covert mode like imagine if main character invited him to be part of the game after the russian roulette game instead of taunting him to continue, it would had made more sense thematically and the spin would had been fun to watch

thanos was the best character by far, T.O.P. is a GOAT. unrelated but i think it’s hilarious that gi-hun is this autistic about tracking down the VIPs/organizers/stopping the games but he doesn’t realize in-ho pulling all the exact same shit il-nam did in season 1.
>>445785NTAYRT but it was pretty obvious that was the point in the bathroom scene when he was staring at the mirror all sad while the pregnant girl was crying, he was clearly realizing he’ll never have the capacity to do that no matter how much money he spends even if he wins.

Going to copy paste my reply from another thread here
>He should had died, worst useless piece of shit I've ever seen, I don't know why the fuck he was spared but wait for them to pull out some semi heroic shenanigan from him last minute to redeem him. Rip that one girl I hated seeing her die while this moid cried himself to sleep.
About the MTF guy: a lot of people are angry about him because he doesn't look like a cute dainty post op troon no such thing really, even then they tend to be clockable and my crypto terf way to respond is: "Don't you see, anon? Not all trans women start in privileged positions where they all can look like women from the start… no, all of them start like this, they look male because they're trying to save up money for more surgeries… this is why this character is playing the squid game after all… Pls understand"

The general consensus seems to be that Thanos was the number one entertaining character and kek I kinda do agree. A lot of characters come across as depressive unfun assholes, it was fun trying to meet more characters to build a sense of community but as a consequence it does spread itself thin maybe a little.
The dad of the sickly girl for example, we barely get to know him but he seemed like a good guy that was put in a shitty situation. He deserved to live more than this guy >>445827. My number one character is the granny/mom though. I think she's sweet and she deserves the world, but I have an inkling they will kill her or kill her son
(or as the shaman lady said, they'll die together). I mean, the failson can die for all I care but his mom would be sad and I don't want that.

she gets ignored by the second bunny at the theme park, it sounds silly but for a child those simple things mean a lot I would had loved to see that subplot being developed instead of all the time we had to take learning to pity the tranny and seeing how he will always be othered for something he chose to do to himself
vs a kid that literally didn't chose to get cancer at that age and has a legit medical condition that needs to be treated or she'll die honestly having the dad and the troon in the same season is enough to peak me once again kek

I'm only on EP 4 so not many thoughts yet, but am I the only one who thinks In-Ho looks like a Korean Mads Mikkelsen. Imo, hE'S actually more handsome than Mads
Other than that, how was he able to sneak his way into the game without anyone noticing? Either there was a player 001 and they killed him to add InHo add, or there was never a player 001 because they already planned to sneak him in. Either way, absolutely no one noticed that this dude wasn't here before? I do get that there was 456 people, but at least one person out of that 456 would have taken note of who is player 001. Or maybe I'm overestimating how much people pay attention to others.

>>446147It's funny because I think anyone that watching would just reject him like a lot of people did inside the show when he wanted to form a team and everyone was like "no thanks". They want you to pity him so hard though, it doesn't work.
>>446165>It’s insane we’re supposed to sympathize with him when he votes repeatedly to continue the games and kill off more people just to fund his surgery. This. I know Gi-hun was pathetic with his lack of good parenting and gambling addiction in the first season, but he eventually became likeable and the story didn't ask for constant sympathy like they do with the troon. A pathetic character can become sympathetic but not in an inorganic, shoehorned way. If I wanted to watch a power point presentation on why trans women are so brave and stunning I would, they need to stop trying to "teach" people to like them. It never works.

I just finished the second season. it gets better as it goes on for me. The first couple of episodes are a bit of a slog, and the Front Man throwing out a Matrix redpill/blupill reference was really cringe. Manosphere retards have permanently ruined any reference to that movie for me, no matter how benign. The first woman we meet is some vapid woman who hits on the cop and wants his Instagram, of course. Combined with how few women there were in the first few epsiodes, and it made this season seem even more misogynistic than the first. A lot of characters were pretty insufferable early on for me too. The shithead rapper, who I actually grew to sort of like, the crypto bro, the fashion girl
who of course immediately dies because she's a woman and the tranny all screamed "We want that zoomer audience" to me.
And of course the tranny is
ex-military. That part is accurate to troonism, actually. Gonna echo other sentiments here, the bathroom scene was disgusting, the handmaidenism was disgusting, seeing him slap the based shamaness was rage enducing, and seeing the dude with the glasses and Jewfro simp for trannies in Thailand being "hotter than real women" was the most repulsive of all. Closet case gooners gonna goon.
And, of course, number 11 gets called a bitch countless times. At least we didn't get another gross scene where the organ harvesters admitted to raping a dying woman, I guess.
>>446827The term "BPD" has really lost all meaning, hasn't it? People in this thread keep using it for female characters they don't like. Very suspect behavior. She was based, and deserved to live over the scrotes.
