I’m gonna be completely honest, aside from the cliffhanger, I enjoyed this season more than Season 1.
The writing/character writing and psychology of the characters has just be overall better for me. The dynamic of In-Ho being in the games without them knowing adds for a cool new idea that adds to the show. Characters like Thanos actually didn’t piss me off that much honestly, they were good fun. Performances were on another level here. My mind comes back to the Russian Roulette scene where the boss sacrifices his life for his friend and man that scene almost had me tearing up.
The brutality and brilliance of that scene is amazing. The new games are gripping and have you stressing!! Especially the one where they are tied at the ankles and have to use teamwork. I never expected Gi-Hun’s revolt and that whole finale had me at the edge of my seat. Overall this season was much better in my opinion!
