Yea, i was a bit fearful they won't be able to keep up the same level of suspence and atmosphere as ep1 but it seems that they can, this was great, i wonder if this is really the past or Yuki just lying about it being her 10th game to be less suspicious i guess
Also thought that might be the case, but I do feel like in her 28th game she was way more confident, and I don't think she would let herself be stepped on like this by another player + I don't see how lying helps her in these games.
When you rewatch 28th game you would notice that she managed to gain control relatively quickly and opened by saying she is altruistic and that she will get everyone through. Noone at that point opposed her. It would be only AFTER someone did act outside of her control where the first death occured.
I mean your other comment was reading like you knew the source material so this is kinda pointless, apologies if thats not the case, if not, this easily could be explained with that in the 1st game everyone else was new, in their 1st or 2nd game and here all the others knew each other and were experienced so maybe thats why she decided to lower her expirience cuz if you're on your first game you dont know shit and having someone with experience is a plus, if you're on your 10th game you already know that to win you sometimes have to fuck others over having someone who won 28 times is not such a good thing
