Anime You've Never Heard Of: BTOOM!

in #anime7 years ago

I recently did a countdown of obscure anime that no one has seen or hear of before.

I'm more or less satisfied with the list, but as time as passed I keep thinking "oh, I forgot about that one. Maybe that should've gone on the list," and so on and so forth.

So, I decided to started mentioning them whenever I think of them to those who might be interested in watching some very, very good anime (that hardly anyone has heard of).

Like much of the anime I run into, I have no idea when or where it was that I first ran into Btoom! I only know that watching it was quite a bit of fun. Normally I don't go for the whole "player wakes up inside a game" scenario, but I must admit that it's well done here.

The synopsis is that a high ranking player in a game called Btoom!, Ryōta Sakamoto, wakes up on a tropical island where the game is being played in real life. Basically, each player has their own combat style using explosives. The object is to kill the other players and win the game.

The real joy in this anime is seeing the character's navigate the different situations and opponents in the game, including Ryōta's former best friend. The show has a decent romance angle as the main character must work with and protect his in game wife, whom he develops real feelings for upon meeting.

Look this one up, folks. The story's explosive.

I'm going to be in the minority here, but I really disliked this anime. Maybe the manga is better? I just felt like nothing happened and it was set up for a second season that never came. I won't say anything else because spoilers.

nice sharing dear...follow me as well

That's not how following works, dear. Read this.

I loved this anime! Too bad they never came out with a 2nd season, it was getting so good too :(

It is kind of similar to "Sword Art Online" but it isn't so popular. But it's a good anime series; I may watch it later.

I've heard of this one, but never took the time to watch it. Maybe I'll have to check it out soon!

I've heard of this one but have yet to watch it. Recently I've been stuck on an anime called Log Horizon. It's storyline is similar to this one but more like Sword Art Online with a more in depth take on MMORPG tactics and strategy applied to new world interactions. I'll have to check this one out too. I think most people that watch large amounts of anime, run into the issue of not knowing the exact moment they run into anime they remember. At least, that happens to me a lot also. Thanks for sharing.

I've heard of BTOOM :D
