Wow, this was so good! And I thought that I liked Chishiya in the adaptation but I feel like I might like him here even more. Best character ever.
Anyway, I have to say that this was full of action but at the same time it managed to provide a pretty good background story for several characters. I would say very well done.

Always reading with a notebook and pen. Don't know when something like this will happen to me.
I have read/watched so many game-survival manga/drama by now that I am sure, anytime soon someone will say I am in a game and stakes are high.

La continuación me ha dejado igual de impresionada que el primer tomo y he devorado uno tras otro los capítulos porque no tienen desperdicio. Juegos macabros al más puro estilo escape room pero con el añadido de la supervivencia.
Sin duda una de las lecturas que más he disfrutado de los últimos meses

The second volume brings great improvements to the series as the art gets a bit better and the pacing is very good.
This time the characters have to participate in a deadly game of tag and the stakes are high. It keeps you in suspense and it has constant action and shocking moments.
It also had some good character moments and developments, and it even presents some good moral questions. It's premise is great and this second volume lives up to its potential.
Recommended!

Chishiya was my favorite character in the series, but he’s even better and more interesting in the manga! I love it! Can’t wait to continue reading about him!

Usagi, Reina mía!

personally loved the game of tag episode and the manga holds up to that which is why it gets a higher rating.
thought about reading another volume before bed but then realised it's the seven of hearts game and i genuinely am not mentally prepared to go through THAT again so sleep it is.
was super excited to meet manga!usagi and chishiya and can't wait to get to the beach portion (though i also dread it lol). the changes from the manga to the show make me curious (how in the manga it was karube to suggest working together but in the show it's arisu) but it just keeps the excitement alive and surprises me so i'm not complaining.

Second Volume of Imawa no Kumi no Alice keeps things fast and dark, continuing right where the first volume left things. We are presented with yet another game and some new characters are introduced. More importantly, there were some clues that give us hope for the future of the game.
As for the art, it was dark, emotional, and action-packed, just right for the story. The pace was fast and the characters smoothly presented, though there was no character development yet.

This whole volume was literally action but with a significant amount of character development.

13/01/2022: Phát hành tập 2.
Tập này đỉnh. Trò chơi 5 bích là trò chơi đầy cuốn hút, nên nó được giữ nguyên hoàn toàn khi đưa vào phim. Diễn biến cùng cách hành xử của các người chơi trong trò này hoàn toàn tự nhiên, và 4/10 người dành chiến thắng là những người xuất sắc nhất.
Mình cũng được giới thiệu hai nhân vật chủ chốt là Usagi (thỏ trắng) và Chisiya (mèo Cheshire), hai reference (dẫn dắ) gợi nhớ vô cùng rõ ràng đến câu chuyện về Alice in Wonderland. Nhưng trên hết trong game này Arisu thể hiện bản thân vô cùng sáng rõ. Từ sợ hãi đến chấp nhận, cuối cùng là vượt lên nghịch cảnh. Anh hùng nào cũng cần một trợ thủ và Karube cũng đóng vô cùng tròn vai. Sự lăn xả của anh cũng là mấu chốt dẫn đến chiến thắng.
Khoảnh khắc quyết định mà Chisiya "đặt cược" vào Karube, Usagi hợp lực cùng Arisu quá là mãn nhãn. Mình thích cách tác giả tận dụng hết khoảng không trong truyện, không để một giây phút nào ngơi nghỉ để hoàn thành game này theo một hướng trọn vẹn nhất nhưng vẫn tái hiện đầy đủ từng cảm xúc của nhân vật.
Xuất sắc.

I don't hate the manga Shibuki that much... Kurabe is still the best guy and finally my other favorite characters have made appearance! Chisiya!!! Usagi is quite awesome too!
With the second game over I'm quite afraid to read further.

¡Me encanta!
Este juego fue igual al de la serie (o al revés), pero no por ello menos emocionante. Además ahora son mucho más claras las divergencias entre el manga y la adaptación y sólo puedo esperar a ver cuál es el verdadero potencial del manga.
Haro Aso, ven que te beso el cerebro .3.

Come from Netflix series because I can't wait for ss2! Finished the whole manga within a few days and it was such a pleasure experience
The idea is briliant, still haven't wrapped my head around how the author was able to come up with such awesome and meaningful story like that. It really makes me question my true identity on the verge of death, when I have to make choices that I bet my life on. I think I'll never know who I really am
I like all the characters. It's a shame that the 2 best friends of Arisu die too soon. I wanted to see them more in the story, but like the story said at some point, their deaths are " necessary evil" for Arisu to mature.
Shibuki was a calculating person and will do anything to hold on to her life. I cried when she smiles and embraces Chunta during her last few seconds of the hide and seek game. It's like she finally accepts her fate that she is about to die. It was such a hard moment for Shibuki to let go considering what she did in the past, but she did it, and at least she was happy in her last moment

After their recent victory, Karube, Arisu, Chouta and Shibuki celebrate. With a visa lasting no more than 3 days, they can't afford to unwind. Karube wants to keep playing and Arisu joins him. The next game is Tag with a deadly twist. They and several others must survive in a locked down building until they find a safe zone or until the killer finds them.

**Alice in Borderland**
Alice et ses amis débarquent dans un nouveau monde où le seul moyen de survivre est de jouer à des jeux où leur propre vie est en jeu. Ainsi commence une longue aventure pour la survie pleine d'interrogations et de combats.
J'ai pris ce manga car la fin de la série (qui ne m'avais plu qu'à moitié même si la fin m'a étrangement convenue sans parler du joker) pour voir quelles sont les différences et voir ce qui n'a pas été gardé. Eh bien, l'adaptation est un chef d'oeuvre comparée au manga. Je ne suis pas le public cible pour ce manga et même si je fais abstraction de celà, tellement de choses me déplaisent : le fan service, des personnages insupportables (surtout Chôta), un dessin peu lisible... Pourtant, il y a des scènes touchantes qui ont réussie à me motiver à lire la suite même si je pense que je ne vais pas forcément changer d'avis.
2,5/5 (le ,5 est là grâce aux scènes d'émotion)

Đỉnh cao, đọc tập này mà adrenaline lên kinh khủng, trò 5♠️ hay cả từ nguyên tác lẫn trên phim!
Không muốn phải phụ thuộc vào số ngày visa được cấp, Karube cùng Arisu tham gia thêm 1 game nữa để "tập luyện", quen với các trò chơi. Tại đây, cả 2 biết được các trò chơi ngoài việc thể hiện độ khó qua các con số trong lá bài, còn được phân loại qua 4 chất bài:
♣️ là game cân bằng, cần sự phối hợp thế mạnh của đồng đội
♠️ là trò chơi yêu cầu sức bền, thể chất
♦️ là trò chơi trí tuệ, kiến thức, còn
♥️ là thứ mức dạy nhất, đùa giỡn với tâm trí người chơi. Chắc qua tập sau Arisu ăn hành đủ với quân 7♥️ đây 🙂

- Det här spelet var perfekt passat med den mörka stilen i den här mangan. Jag älskar hur allt eskalerade, döden är mycket närmare efter det här.
- Karubes våldsamhet och mod gjorde så att de klarade spelet, och också Arisus tankesätt återigen. Men wow Karube gör mig nästan starstruck han är så imponerande, (lätt en mycket bättre karaktär än i serien).
- Vängruppen börjar att distanseras från varandra då de inte kommunicerar tillräckligt bra och även för att Chōtas ”flickvän” försöker få honom att vända sig mot dem, för att det kan komma att gynna henne i verkligheten.

After the mystery of the first volume, this one stamps the potential of the whole series.
This one showed the trio (or rather the duo - since they're the one who really participated this time) how the game works, how to deal and handle other game players, and the realization of people dying during the game. The five of spades game is indeed clever; taking consideration of what staircase and floor to pick, on how to hide, considering group participation, etc. all matters now. This one hooked me to the whole Alice in Borderland thing.

The games in this are in the extreme and made me very emotional. It really made me think how important the things around me are. The horror part definitely got to me because it kept me keep on reading every chapter trying to think whos going to die and wonder whos dying next. I really love everything about this series and I'm planning to finish reading all 18 volume! I would recommend this to whoever finishes the first volume and still wanting to know more.

The 5 of spades game is one of my favorites, some amazing characters were introduced and developed. I love how Karube and Arisu support and protect each other😭
Sth that surprised me was that actually Karube had the idea of screaming to help the others in the complex, not Arisu, as is shown in the series. Also, even though Chishiya is a smart mf he didnt do much to clear the game, besides helping Karube and giving hints about the country.
Anyways Usagi is queen

ESTOY FASCINADA-
Apareció Chishiya !!! ( EL MEJOR PERSONAJEE, LO AMO)
El juego del edificio fue re similar en la serie.
Me gusta mucho la importancia que le da a los sentimientos/pensamientos de los protagonistas, y lo mal que la pasaban en la otra realidad.... rozando la depresión casi, me parece muy interesante.

This is one of my favorite single volumes of manga I've read. This was so cool. Admittedly, I also loved the show's take on this volume. I can't think of anything else to say than that is was cool. The amount of times my jaw went slack and I just started laughing at how sick a decision or line was is more than I can remember. I'm so mad that I have to wait for the next volume to come out. 😭

Oh man, the Five of Spades chapters were an absolute blast! I was wondering how it was going to compare to the Netflix series (a masterpiece btw), but I'm happy to say the manga handles it just as well if not better! We are also introduced to Chishiya and Usagi for the first time. Gotta say, Chishiya is already a certified badass. Can't wait to see how his character develops. 5/5

Mailny being focused on the five of spaces, this volume introduces some new and interesting characters. The link between the title of the series and the "original" Alice is also somewhat more clarified, though a lot of mysteries surrounding the Borderlands still remain.

Still fun and thrilling. Disappointed in the typical shounen fan service shots, but it's at least not as frequent as other shounen... still, I appreciate the live action not really delving into that much.

Sigue siendo parte de la introducción a la historia, pese a ello no deja de generar demasiado suspenso por el como avanzará la historia.
También mencionan la historia del grupo en el que se encuentra Arisu.

Este tomo me gustó mucho más por las grandes referencias a la novela de Alicia en el país de las maravillas. Y el hecho de convertir las escondidillas en un momento de asesinato hicieron que la tensión creciera en cada página.
