With his two friends, a video-game-obsessed young man finds himself in a strange version of Tokyo where they must compete in dangerous games to win.
An aimless gamer and his two friends find themselves in a parallel Tokyo, where they're forced to compete in a series of sadistic games to survive.
Arisu and his friends run into a public bathroom to hide from the police, but when they reemerge, the streets of Tokyo are suddenly completely empty.
Leaving an injured Chota, Arisu and Karube head out to gain more experience. They come to a sprawling apartment, where a deadly game of tag awaits.
With Chota and Shibuki's visas fast expiring, the four enter a vast botanical garden in Shinjuku, where they take part in a cruel game of betrayal.
Arisu is overwhelmed with guilt and ready to give up, but Usagi urges him to keep going. Next up is a game of endurance in an underground highway.
After Arisu and Usagi find their way to the Beach, the king of the so-called utopian haven forces them to help gather the remaining playing cards.
Chishiya recruits Arisu and Usagi to help him change the status quo. An unforeseen event rocks the fragile power dynamics of the Beach.
Once a safe haven, the Beach becomes the arena for the next stage, where an epic witch hunt turns everyone against each other in a hostile showdown.
Tensions inside the resort reach a boiling point. As the game clock nears zero, those who've survived the onslaught now face an uncertain future.
The games are deadlier, this world more wild and cruel; but will Arisu ever make it back to the real world — and will it be worth everything he's lost?
Arisu, Usagi, Kuina and Chishiya have been waiting for over an hour in Shibuya crossing for the next stage to start, but nothing seems to be happening.
Now that the King of Clubs has revealed himself in his full glory, the game finally begins. Much to Arisu's surprise, things are going pretty well.
With only a few minutes left in the game, the results for each team seems fixed. Arisu approaches Kyuma, and asks to shake his hand.
There are just a handful of players left, and Chishiya's the only one without a partner. The next round may very well be the last of the game.
Aguni has one thing on his mind; to find and kill the King of Spades. He's joined by Arisu and a determined high schooler named Akane Heiya.
Usagi will have to change the hearts and minds of the cynical players on the Queen's team. At the Supreme Court, Chishiya meets the King of Diamonds.
In the middle of an overgrown Shibuya crossing, Niragi challenges Arisu and Chishiya to a game. But then, the King of Spades arrives.
For their final game, they'll need to survive three rounds of croquet; but before they can get very far, the Queen asks them to sit down for some tea.
