Three slackers end up in a game to the death after being transported into a strange people less version of Tokyo. The first game is a choose your door game that was like the Princess or the Tiger. They must choose the correct door to go through or be killed. But there was a lot of lead up to get that point. In the beginning, we have to get the backstories on the three young men. One is dealing with the grief of his mother's death and gets kicked out of his house. The second is caught with his boss's girlfriend and after a fight loses his job. The third is a dissatisfied office worker. The story follows them until they all meet up. After an accident, they hide in a bathroom stall. When they emerge from the stall, Tokyo is devoid of people. A giant billboard flashes and tells them it's time to play the game.
So many questions. So many loose ends. So much I don't care. I guess I should be used to this after the way Wandavision starts out with so many questions but this show didn't really hit it for me. It's 8 episodes. I might see one more to see if it gets better. Or maybe I don't relate any more to young men struggling with the question of how to get on with their lives.
No sword fights. Yet

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
