Story:
Part 2 of Alice in Borderland had a very straight plotline where they just picked up from the last season - still playing games in order to survive and collect the cards. Through each stage of the King, Queen, & Jack games they played some intense mind/physical games where any character could die. The hardest part, probably, was that even some of the characters that the main leads went up against had a strong personality where you wanted them to survive after knowing what their background was.

Skipping to the ending which was absolutely AMAZING! When the big reveal happened of why they were playing the games - everything made sense. The games were a metaphor, in a way, to their will to live. All the people that were in this game were in a coma and those that survived were actually survivors of the accident that happened in the real world. The people who failed at the games had also died in real life indicating that their will to live wasn't strong enough to claim victory. ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. I was worried that the ending was going to be some virtual reality thing or even a time skip where they are in this new kind of world. This ending was different and not really something I was expecting and it just fit perfectly with the entire plot.

Acting:
All the actors did an incredible job. Even the supporting cast did a great job. My 3 favorite cast members has to be Yamazaki Kento, Sakurada Dori & Murakami Nijiro. These 3 were amazing in the roles they played.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this drama. The journey is great and the ending ties up everything perfectly.
