Chōta Segawa ( 勢川 張太, Segawa Chōta) / The Carpenter Voiced by: Tsubasa Yonaga [3] (Japanese); Greg Ayres [4] (English) Portrayed by: Yūki Morinaga A highschooler (IT technician in the Netflix series) and friend of Arisu and Karube. And apparently, when I'm ready, there's also a Netflix series based on "Alice" that I can check out. Beach [ edit ] Takeru Danma ( 弾間 剛, Danma Takeru) / The Mad Hatter ( 帽子屋, Hatter) Portrayed by: Nobuaki Kaneko A former hatter and the leader and founder of "the Beach", a hotel inhabited by dozens of players. Aso’s artwork unveiling that event is a fantasy kaleidoscope of ideas, including some impressive stylings evoking the otherworldly art of Alex Niño. He has a fantastic eye for action, knowing how to frame certain shots for best effect, like going to the character’s point of view when they’re hiding from the killer, or zooming out for set pieces so you can see characters doing daring things like jumping between floors.The story is way more intriguing than I though and look solidly build, of course a series like that is, for me at least, in good part about the why, so the ending, when it will come, could play a major role in my final appreciation. It’s a short-lived victory, however, as they discover that winning only earns them a visa worth a few days’ grace period. Several games later however, the Mad Hatter is killed and the Beach is turned into the game stage for the Ten of Hearts, the final game of the first stage. The opening can be slow, and some of the faces are a little wonky, but once it gets going it's well worth the adventure.

catching a glimpse of this strange phenomenon is all it takes to send arisu, karube, and chota careening into a world that resembles their own - but is eerily, dangerously, violently, different. A low numbered card is supposed to be relatively simple to survive, such as a locked room mystery, a 10 card far more difficult. The most laid-back and humane of the gamemasters, he is the only gamemaster who Arisu deeply respects. Aso’s illustrations here showing the method of destroying the players by the otherworldly villain in a “game over” situation defines the look of those pinpoint lasers adapted for the show.

In the Netflix series, Karube was preparing to propose to a woman he worked with at a bar, who happened to be the lover of his boss whilst in the Manga he was single and owned a bar despite his age. One of the things Aso does well is reminding the reader to enjoy life in the midst of hardship–the reader is left with the characters able to celebrate their victory for a few days before the next trial arrives. It was first serialized in Shogakukan's shōnen manga magazine Shōnen Sunday S from November 2010 to March 2015, and later moved to Weekly Shōnen Sunday, where it ran from April 2015 to March 2016. Karube and Shibuki argue, causing Chota to have to guess the answer quickly and have arrows fired at them.
