01x05 - Yuichi-kun, You're Pretty Dumb, Aren't You?

[bunniefuu]

I have the right to take

everything from Shiho-chan.

Her smile, her trust, her friends

Because she robbed me of the most

important thing in this world.

Yuichi, if you try to get in my way,

I'll crush you with all of my strength!

Friendship

parent and child crooks

here we go!

LOL

whoa lol

no way!

m*rder*r!

lol

seriously?

you're done

Episode 5: Yuichi-kun, You're Pretty Dumb, Aren't You?

Episode 5: Yuichi-kun, You're Pretty Dumb, Aren't You?

Hey, hey, Shibe,

is it true that you've

actually k*lled a person?

How could it be?! It has to be a lie!

Yeah probably.

Thinking about it, regardless

of what his dad did,

there's no way a guy like

Shibe could k*ll someone.

So Yuichi is undoubtedly the one

who bad-mouthed him

Does that mean he has some kind of plan?

Manabu-sensei! That bad-mouth is a lie!

That means the person

who wrote it gets a penalty!

Oh? Is that right?

That's it!

(if the lie is revealed, you'll be forced one space in front of the lead player)

If Yuichi gets slapped with a penalty,

we'll know he's the one who wrote it.

Okay, if you say it's a lie,

then prove it to us.

Huh?

What?!

P-Prove it?

I'm telling you I didn't do it!

That's what they all say. Are you dumb?

Um, fine. So find out if I have a record, then!

Huh? Even when there's a good chance

you had your papa cover up the crime?

How would that prove anything?

Then how can I

Well, if the person who wrote the lie

comes forward, it's a different story.

Oh!

Okay! When you're in a pinch, ask the gods!

Q: Do you believe what Shibe said?

Believe

Don't Believe

Let's take a god survey to decide

if we believe Shibe.

If the "Believe" side gets over

50% percent, we'll call that proof.

Q: Do you believe what Shibe said?

Believe

Don't Believe

u dumbass lmao

m*rder*r lol

this is pissing me off

lol

god round lol

no chance lol

are you dumb lol

gross lol

no way do we believe you

lolol

I didn't do it! Believe me, gods!

Why would I have any reason to k*ll someone?

My life honestly hasn't been

that hard so far.

Whenever I've had trouble, my dad's

taken care of everything for me!

Idiot.

Q: Do you believe what Shibe said?

Believe

Don't Believe

this guy's a total idiot lol

he looks like he'd cover it up

lolol

you're screwed lmaooo

did you really k*ll someone?

can't believe a word

hype!!

hell yeah

I'm pissed lol

lmao

1% is naive

Too bad!

With that, Shibe moves five spaces

and jumps into the lead!

22 spaces - 1,600,000 yen

Yikes! What a way to put it!

Well, they probably wouldn't have

believed Shibe no matter what he said.

Nothing smells as fishy as an

excuse from a rich person.

In this country, the speaker is

more important than their words.

So you can't really prove anything's

a lie without clear evidence.

Could Yuichi have calculated that far ahead?

Don't worry, Shibe. I believe you.

There's no way you could k*ll someone.

Yuichi

But this bad-mouth made it clear.

One of us is a traitor, and is deliberately

trying to destroy our friendship.

And I've figured out who that is.

What?! Did he catch me?

That culprit's written all of the really

nasty bad-mouthing so far.

No way. Are you

So can we stop fighting

among ourselves, guys?

It's all a single person's fault.

I see now.

He's trying to blame it all on the traitor

to bring everyone together.

If he does

Who's the traitor, then?!

I can't tell you yet.

So, you were bluffing after all?

Most likely. I haven't made any mistakes.

Well, to be more precise,

there's no need to say any more,

because I figured out

a strategy to win the game.

A winning strategy for this kind of game?!

One thing's been bugging

me since we started:

The fact that this game isn't fair at all.

In the first few rounds, we trusted

each other and kept pace together.

But after just two spaces, our total

debt went over 3 million yen.

Players who stop on this space will

"Lose your wallet on the way home from school"

- 100,000 yen

For a game that only gives

2 million yen for winning,

Players who stop on this space will

"Buy a painting of a dolphin from

a beautiful woman on the street"

- 500,000 yen

that was totally unfair.

Of course, we're the ones in debt.

We have to deal with some

of it being unreasonable.

But a game that's totally

unfair is boring to watch.

we're watching lol

keep going!! lol

we're watching lolol

we're watching lmao

make it more fun lol

too much talk

lolol

The Tomodachi Game has an audience.

we're watching lolol

we're god lol

I always enjoy this

I'm a regular lol

lmaooo

what's the point of this?

whens the next surprise?

we're watching

hurry up and make it fun!

hi

It's the management's job

to make it fun for the audience.

If the game isn't fair on

some level, it won't be fun.

Games are fun because you

don't know how they'll end.

All of that leads me to one conclusion.

Do you remember what

happened in the sixth period?

That was the first time we

got a space that lowered debt.

Kokorogi's debt went down 200,000 yen.

And remember what Manabu said at the start?

Other than the bad-mouthing to get ahead,

"It's just normal Sugoroku."

Normal Sugoroku would have spaces

that are positive and negative.

If that's how the game keeps

things fair and interesting,

then if you make it from start

to finish in Bad-Mouth Sugoroku,

shouldn't your wins and losses

balance out at the end?

Bingo!

First Half

minus (-) zone

Second Half

plus (+) zone

In Bad-Mouth Sugoroku, to discourage

people from moving in sync,

the negatives are

mostly in the first half.

But in the second half,

positive spaces increase.

It's just like he said.

If you add up all the spaces on

the board, you come out even!

0 yen

But so what?

You figured it out too late.

I think you're probably right, Yuichi,

but doesn't that just mean it's hard

to get more debt in the second half?

That's right.

Even if we turn in blanks and move space

by space now, it won't close the gaps.

Shibe will reach the goal alone

and the game will end.

The trouble with this game is that

you don't know who wrote what.

But, what if we made it so you could?

Listen. From here on, all of us

except the person in the lead,

should bad-mouth ourselves.

1st Place Shibe = blank

2nd Place Shiho = self

3rd Place Yutori = self

4th Place Yuichi = self

5th Place Tenji = self

If we promise to play the rest of the game

so that everyone except the leader

only writes about themselves,

4th Place Yuichi = self

1st Place Shibe = blank

2nd Place Shiho = self

3rd Place Yutori = self

5th Place Tenji = self

then if the traitor breaks that promise

and writes about Shibe,

4th Place Yuichi = Shibe

this will happen.

Bad-Mouth

1st Shibe - yes

Shiho - yes

Yutori - yes

Yuichi - no

Tenji - yes

Yuichi's the only one who isn't bad-mouthed.

Right. This way you'd immediately

know I'm the traitor.

Mikasa Tenji

Sawaragi Shiho

Basically, if we promise

to play the game like that,

Katagiri Yuichi

Shibe Makoto

Kokorogi Yutori

it's essentially the same

as signing our votes.

Bad-Mouth

1st Shibe - yes

Shiho - yes

Yutori - yes

Yuichi - no

Tenji - yes

The traitor won't be able

to betray us any more!

I get it! That's why we don't need

to say who the traitor is.

This way, we'd have to

move one space at a time.

If we follow each other in order

and share our own secrets,

it should be possible to catch

up to the same space.

Possible, you say

Yeah. It's not a perfect strategy.

But at least

we could stop trying to hurt each other.

I know we've all been through a lot, but can

we try to work together one more time?

Our debt shouldn't increase

from here on out.

Wouldn't it suck if our

friendship ended like this?

When you put it that way, Yuichi

I'm against it!

Why, Tenji? Everyone else is on board.

Or is there some reason why

it wouldn't work out for you?

Yuichi, do you really know

who the traitor is?

O-Of course I do.

Why are you so intent on asking?

Then spit it out!

That way everyone can concentrate

their votes on the traitor

and make them finish first.

Isn't that the best strategy?

B-But then, I know he's the traitor,

but he'll be sent to the third game alone.

That's too cruel—

Don't be dense!

Katagiri

Yuichi, at this point, I think

it's stupid to trust anyone.

We're getting into the final rounds.

If we waste a valuable period on

this strategy and it doesn't work,

I'm gonna make you tell us who the traitor is.

Y-Yeah.

And!

If you identify the traitor

without any kind of proof,

I'm never listening to you again.

Is that all right with you?!

That's fine with me.

Is it?

Okay.

Eighth Period

Did everyone bad-mouth yourselves?

Except Shibe, since he's in first.

Yeah.

Of course.

Good.

There should be exactly

four bad-mouth cards.

Even if there aren't that many,

we should know right

away who didn't write one.

Let's see, this time there are

ten cards in total!

Ten cards?

There were ten cards in the box!

Ten cards?

Sorry, Yuichi. There were holes

in your plan from the start.

I'm honestly disappointed in you, Yuichi.

I was surprised when you said

you had a strategy,

but your plan was so weak!

Sure, if you could only write one card

each time, your strategy would work,

- You can write as many things as you want about each person

but you have to remember the rules.

One of you probably put in

a whole lot of cards.

Yuichi-kun, you're pretty dumb, aren't you?

I saw this coming,

but you said you were confident,

so I thought you had

something up your sleeve.

No, I had no idea this would happen!

Fine. No turning back now. You promised.

This will be our final duel, Yuichi!

Which one of us is the traitor?

It's

If you say my name, you'll win.

But if you say nothing, I'll be

the victor of Bad-Mouth Sugoroku!

I-I'm sorry. I was bluffing.

I don't even know if

there's a traitor or not.

Let's go, Shiho-chan.

But Yuichi did all of that to help us

You always say things like that!

That's why you keep getting

hurt, over and over!

I-I'm sorry.

You have to accept it.

Our friendship is already totally ruined!

Mikasa Tenji

If we stay in denial, we're just

going to keep getting beaten.

Don't worry, though. I'll keep

protecting you, no matter what.

Come with me.

Yeah.

I've won!

Now there's no one standing in my way.

It's been two years since you stole

what was most precious to me.

Finally. Finally.

I've been waiting for this chance

for a long, long time.

I've waited so long for vengeance

Now, all I have to do is set the stage

to lay you open for everyone to see!

Senpai, it looks like Group C

is finished, doesn't it?

Yes, you might be right.

The rest of the game horribly slogged on.

Nobody spoke to or even

looked at anyone else.

The game proceeded as the traitor

had likely intended.

Nineteenth Period

Aw, you're back in first place

again, Shiho-sama.

And you're only one space from the goal!

By the way, to reach the goal

you have to jump off the edge.

Don't worry! It's a little scary,

but you won't die.

I'm sorry, Shiho-chan! I wasn't

strong enough to protect you.

If only I had given up on trusting everyone

sooner, this wouldn't have happened.

Come on, let me hear it.

Tell me how you really feel now that

you're backed into a corner!

Aw, this group ended up

just like the others.

It was all over too soon.

That's true.

Period 19 Spaces Moved Debt Amount (game 2 only)

32 spaces - 800,000 yen

Goal: 60 spaces

At this point, no matter what people

write, they'll never catch up to Shiho.

Even if they're all blank,

she has to move one space.

Sawaragi Shiho is the single

confirmed loser of this second game.

The traitor's persistence

beat out Katagiri Yuichi's wit.

But what is this?

Something in the image doesn't feel right

Quick! Rewind the video!

Huh? Okay.

It can't be.

Could this really have

We may have let a human

abomination play the game.

The game isn't over yet!

Hey.

I might have an idea.

Sorry, Yuichi, but I have

no interest in hearing you out.

Even so

I just thought of a way to make

the traitor expose themselves.

Are you serious, Yuichi?

Yeah. This time it'll totally work.

Yuichi, are you going to talk crap

and try to confuse us again?

No way.

Confused or not, even if we

figure out who it is now,

we can't stop Sawaragi

from reaching the goal.

W-Well, I guess you're right.

But why would you want to

figure out the traitor now, then?

Well, that's because

You remember there's a penalty

if you're caught lying, right?

- You may lie

(if the lie is revealed, you'll be forced one space in front of the lead player)

And if you combine that with my earlier

strategy to only bad-mouth yourself,

everyone except the traitor will be

able to go to the next game.

Seriously?

Everyone except the traitor

reaches the goal?

Can they really do that?

This will be our last round

of bad-mouthing, so

Katagiri Yuichi

We use these bad-mouth cards

with names on them

Shibe Makoto

Kokorogi Yutori

Mikasa Tenji

and all write the exact same thing.

Sawaragi Shiho

The same thing?

There's only one person it'll be true for—

the traitor.

Can a bad-mouth can do that?

Sure, it can.

Just write this on the bad-mouth card:

"I'm the one who applied to

play Tomodachi Game."

I'm sure the traitor chose to play the game

in order to destroy our friendship.

Basically, the applicant

must also be the traitor.

applicant =

traitor

Y-You're right!

So if we all write the same card

with our names attached,

the real traitor will actually have

written the truth, and won't get a penalty.

But the others will be penalized for lying.

Penalty

Traitor

No penalty

As a result, everyone except

the traitor will be forced

to the space after Sawaragi

and will reach the goal.

That makes sense!

No wonder you waited until Shiho

was right in front of the goal.

B-But how are you going to prove

the lie? If you can't—

Not a problem. This way,

we don't need to prove the lies.

W-What?

We're talking about whoever applied

to play Tomodachi Game.

Management obviously

already knows who that is.

Isn't that right, Manabu-sensei?

Hmm. Yeah, I guess.

If possible, I wanted us all

to reach the goal together.

But it's been such a mess

so far, I figured it's better

to leave the traitor in this game,

and clear it without him.

Then only true friends will be left

to play the third game together.

W-Wait! You can't guarantee

everyone will write the same thing!

If someone doesn't write it,

we'll know he's the traitor.

Huh?!

If we keep going like this, Sawaragi

will move on to the third game alone.

Anyone okay with that is

the just as bad as the traitor.

Right, Shibe?

Y-Yeah! I'll totally write it.

Don't you agree, Tenji?

You said you're on Sawaragi's

side no matter what, right?

O-Of course I am!

All right. Why don't you go first, then?

Huh?!

Sawaragi trusts you more than anyone.

Better to reassure her sooner

rather than later, right?

Tenji-san

Mikasa Tenji

Fine.

Mikasa Tenji

God damn it! I'm screwed!

I never saw that coming!

I'm out of time! There's gotta

be a way out of this!

I know!

I'll write the card like he said.

When they figure out I'm the traitor,

I'll feed them a conspiracy theory!

I'll admit that I applied,

and then say that someone else

blackmailed me into doing it.

It'll take some effort,

but it's already half-true.

I can take my time figuring out

a good excuse later.

I wrote it.

Great! I'm up next.

I'll do it just right.

What's with him?

Okay. You all wrote that you

were the applicant, right?

Now it's just a matter of my acting.

The instant they realize it was me,

I'll start crying!

I'll weep, cling to them,

have a total breakdown

Yuichi's so dense, I'm sure

he'll at least listen to me.

All right. Are you ready

for the final round?

Pay close attention. We should see

something very interesting happen.

Let's see.

In total, this time there were

There have to be five! Hurry it up!

I can't hold back the tears!

What? There's just one.

The rest are all blank.

Huh?

And it says, ahem,

"I am the one who applied to play

Tomodachi Game. —Mikasa Tenji"

Mi

Mikasa

Mikasa Ten

Mikasa Tenji

W-Why

Why am I the only one who turned one in?!

Tenji, didn't I tell you?

"I thought of a way to make

the traitor expose themself."

E-Expose? No, I'm not

Damn it!

I have to cry to get their sympathy!

I-It's not like that

Will you just hear me out, please?!

Don't cry, Tenji.

You really are dense!

Yui—

You can make all the excuses you want later.

But for now, you'd better spit it out.

The truth was gonna come

out sooner or later.

Let's hear your answer

to my question, Tenji.

W-What the hell is this?

Is this the same Yuichi?!

Are you the one who applied

to play the Tomodachi Game?

You're scaring the hell out of me!

Y-Yes.

I applied to play the Tomodachi Game.

What's going on?!

Did Katagiri Yuichi realize that

Mikasa Tenji was the traitor?

If you rewatched from the start of

second game, you'd understand, too.

There were three clear abnormalities.

You should be able to find three traps.

Three traps?

Yes.

Katagiri Yuichi

And if you do, you'll understand

how unique Katagiri Yuichi really is.
