| Btooom! (Manga) | comment |
On the surface, Ryouta Sakamoto, aged 22, looks like the very definition of NEET: unemployed, lazy, unremarkable, and still lives with his mother. In the online gaming world, however, he is famed as one of the best players of "Btooom!", a highly popular game where players throw bombs at enemies and harvest their chips....Until the day he wakes up in a tropical island, with no clue as to how he got there. While wandering around, he finds a man and asks him for help — only for said man to throw him a bomb. Ryouta saves himself by using his gaming skills, even as he realizes that he was just thrown into a real-life version of his favorite game.Together with Himiko, a high-school girl, and Kiyoshi Taira, a real estate agent, Ryouta would have no choice but to try to stay alive — by hook or crook.Btooom! is a manga by "Joker" Junya Inoue (of Cave fame), which was serialized in the seinen magazine Comic Bunch from 2009 to 2018 and compiled into 26 volumes. The manga is licensed in English for North America by Yen Press. It also has an anime adaptation directed by Yousuke Kuroda as part of the Fall 2012 lineup.Btooom! Online, a mobile game adaptation of the manga, was developed by Asobimo and released in 2017.Crunchyroll is streaming the anime. US and Canada viewers may watch it here. | |

Rape as Drama | |
| Btooom! (Manga) / int_12dd1d4c | comment |
Rape as Drama: Himiko's reason for being sent to the island. She and some friends met with an upperclassman. Turns out they were a bunch of rapists. Himiko barely escapes them. Unfortunately, the same couldn't be said for her friends. Even though she called the police and got the rapists arrested, they blamed her for running away and nominated her for the game. | |

| Btooom! (Manga) / int_1b8ff67c | comment |
Above the Influence: Ryouta, even though Himiko sort of allows him to in episode 12, ultimately does this. Partly because of he didn't want to be like his former friend in high school Oda, and partly because Himiko isn't still entirely comfortable around men due to her earlier rape attempts. | |

Deadly Game | |
| Btooom! (Manga) / int_1d91d828 | comment |
Deadly Game: Every person on the island has a gem on their left hand, and the only way to get off the island is to grab seven of them from other people, by killing them. Naturally this causes law-abiding people to be hesitant, while those with lower morals find it easier to use the bombs given to them. | |

Mythology Gag: Himiko has the exact same head as Casper and Piper and wears a t-shirt with Kiki the bat-devil. Her game avatar has the head of Sakura. One of the evil businessmen is Colonel Longhena. One of Himiko's former school friends Miho looks a lot like Follett including the glasses. Hidemi Kinoshita looks a lot like Rosa except much taller. | |

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing | |
| Btooom! (Manga) / int_2764d432 | comment |
Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: In Episode 8, Masahito Date lets Shiki take all the blame for a mess he made in a hospital. However, both he and Shiki later get stuck on the island to play the game, and at first he seems willing to work together. But after they acquire six chips, he attempts to kill her to obtain her chip. While he didn't kill her outright, the bomb did dislodge her chip (along with her left hand), which apparently was technically acceptable, as he managed to get off the island. When he appears in Episode 9, he is able to trick Ryota and the group for the most part, but his attempt at killing Himiko has let her catch on to him. | |

The Hero Dies | |
| Btooom! (Manga) / int_382a6399 | comment |
The "Dark" version of the ending leans more on the bitter but has a larger sense of finality. Ryota ultimately dies putting a stop to Oda, Perrier's forces fail to put an immediate stop to the game, Kaguya dies in Uesagi's arms, Himiko is forced to go into hiding, and Takahonoshi is still at large with the intent of restarting the game. Himiko manages to kill Schwartiz however, causing the shadow government to fall into chaos, she along with Kira and Uesagi all survive the game, and join Perrier alongside Ida and Hisonobu to fully expose the crimes of the shadow government, and work towards creating a peaceful world just like Ryota wished for, Himiko swearing to do it not just for Ryota, but for everyone who died because of the game. And while their revolution may never be publicly credited to them, they are praised as heroes on the internet, in particular the urban legend known only as "Himiko". | |

Cold-Blooded Torture: When captured by Miyamoto and Natsume in Episode 7, Himiko begs them to kill her quickly, promising not to resist, in exchange for them not raping her. Miyamoto says he has no plans to take away her purity, but rather wants to be entertained. He then tells her about torturing people For the Evulz, such as slowly stripping someone's skin off and seeing how long they survive for. | |

Then he had his fingers sliced off by a knife. All in about 10 chapters. And then he goes insane from his fever and his homesickness, and tries to kill his companions, only to finally commit suicide instead of mistakenly giving himself over to Sakamoto and Himiko. | |

However, Ryota realizes that Himiko, while willing, is terrified because of her PTSD from Attempted Rape, so he stops and just cuddles with her. | |

Plot Coupon | |
| Btooom! (Manga) / int_5527dc0c | comment |
Plot Coupon: Each player's goal is to collect 7 chips from other players to get off the island. Which makes working with other people more difficult, since you still need eight chips per person to escape, so two people working together would need 14 chips total to escape. Ryota thinks about this during episode 3 when deciding whether working with Taira was going to be worth it. | |

| Btooom! (Manga) / int_562abd51 | comment |
Let's Get Dangerous!: Ryota doesn't have too many practical skills outside of games, which hurts him a bit when he runs into opponents who are better trained, such as Miyamoto. However, because he's extremely familiar with the rules of the Btooom game, when he utilizes those skills, he's just as deadly as the person he's fighting. | |

Pragmatic Adaptation | |
| Btooom! (Manga) / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: Himiko's name and backstory are revealed in the second episode of the anime adaptation. In the manga, this happened much later, after Masashi was eliminated, and thus she was a much more mysterious character for most of the plot. This was probably done in the anime to keep the interest of viewers who were wondering who the cute blonde in all the ads was. | |

My Greatest Failure | |
| Btooom! (Manga) / int_6ee10e0 | comment |
My Greatest Failure: Ryouta begins to realize how selfish he was to other people after Taira goes insane and attempts to kill them, and then kills himself when he regains his sanity. He sees that Taira was just a normal person pushed to extreme circumstances, and his failure to stay with him ultimately caused his friend to attack them, then kill himself. | |

Like Reality, Unless Noted | |
| Btooom! (Manga) / int_714741cc | comment |
Like Reality, Unless Noted: The series is largely realistic, but a few of the BIMs are beyond modern technology. The Homing BIM is quite advanced, though probably still a decade or two away from becoming real. The BIM that produces flames in an "X" pattern is also something unlikely in real life, though theoretically it could be possible, but the Implosion BIM and the Shield BIM stray right into science fiction territory. The radar chips implanted in each player's hand are also way beyond today's technology. In the manga, the Tyrannos Corporation uses them to gain their accurate video and audio feeds of what's happening on the island. | |

Mr. Exposition: Taira fills in for this during episode 3, telling Ryota what happened on the plane ride to the island. He tells Ryota about how he was the most adamant against the game, causing the guards on the plane to taser him right in the head, which explains the blood on his head as well as his short term memory loss back in episode 1. | |

Cliffhanger: The anime had to end with one because it had caught up to the manga's 50 chapters. Even now that the manga is over, the low DVD/Blu-Ray sales would have killed any interest in Madhouse coming back to deliver a second season. | |

They Died Because of You: Ryouta applies this trope to himself when he realizes Taira's death was largely because he seemingly ignored other people's thoughts and feelings, as well as doing whatever he wanted to do. As a result, his friend started going insane due to his injuries, which ultimately led him to attack both Ryouta and Himiko when he starts to hallucinate about his family and meeting them again. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Btooom! (Manga) / int_a435b45e | comment |
Bitter Sweet Ending: The manga ultimately has two different endings, a "Light" and a "Dark" version, each one being radically different as a result of different decisions made in their respective final volumes. Both fall under this trope however, just to different extents. The "Light" version of the ending leans more on the sweet and has an air of The Adventure Continues. Ryota, Himiko, Oda, Kira, Uesagi, and Kaguya all survive the game, albeit not without injury, Oda in particular losing his foot. The six of them are taken overseas by Perrier where they get to start new lives, with Ryota reuniting with his parents and reconciling with both them and Oda, Oda's mom is brought over too, Ryota and Himiko are all set to be married, and Perrier is ready to continue the fight even with the game gone. Schwartiz however has the island destroyed as a show of force to those who disobey the shadow government and washes his hands of Btooom before selling it to Nortimer, who takes Ida with it, which could be a Fate Worse than Death for him if the rumors that Nortimer forces his male workers to get involuntary sex changes and keeps them as sex slaves is in any way true. The survivors can likely never return to Japan again either due to it being under the control of the shadow government, and the players tricked into being drone pilots like Xaviera are taken in as P.O.W.s. The "Dark" version of the ending leans more on the bitter but has a larger sense of finality. Ryota ultimately dies putting a stop to Oda, Perrier's forces fail to put an immediate stop to the game, Kaguya dies in Uesagi's arms, Himiko is forced to go into hiding, and Takahonoshi is still at large with the intent of restarting the game. Himiko manages to kill Schwartiz however, causing the shadow government to fall into chaos, she along with Kira and Uesagi all survive the game, and join Perrier alongside Ida and Hisonobu to fully expose the crimes of the shadow government, and work towards creating a peaceful world just like Ryota wished for, Himiko swearing to do it not just for Ryota, but for everyone who died because of the game. And while their revolution may never be publicly credited to them, they are praised as heroes on the internet, in particular the urban legend known only as "Himiko". | |

Ms. Fanservice: Himiko, most of her panel time consists of some action (usually bad for her) that will force a suggestive pose on the girl; while grovelling in pain or fainting, Himiko will have her bosoms, legs or bottom in great view for the reader. Then Junya stepped into the next level, by making an Artbook with a bikini-clad Himiko doing all sorts of poses for a fictional photo shot. She even got a bomb bounced off her chest. And look at some of the merch... | |

Taking You with Me | |
| Btooom! (Manga) / int_caf89e54 | comment |
Taking You with Me: Himiko tries this by activating one of her bombs before getting raped by the big fat guy in episode 2, but he runs away instead. When she realizes she'd only be killing herself, she throws the bomb away, which conveniently lands in front of the guy and blows him up. Miyamoto attempts to do this as well in episode 7, after suffering from a gas bomb attack. Fortunately Ryota grabbed a bomb off Natsume, whom he just killed moments earlier, and dropped that down to distract Miyamoto long enough for him to let go of Himiko. | |

Killed Off for Real | |

Killed Off for Real: People who are killed on the island are really dead, something that takes Ryota and the non-insane characters a while to comprehend and accept. | |

Broken Bird | |
| Btooom! (Manga) / int_d08595d3 | comment |
Broken Bird: Himiko — saw her friends raped, betrayed by them in retaliation, narrowly escaped two attempted rapes... probably the best thing that happened to her so far is meeting Ryouta who happens to play her avatar's "husband". | |

Hair Color Dissonance | |
| Btooom! (Manga) / int_d249fb0f | comment |
Hair Color Dissonance: It's either this, or Junya is not the one coloring the covers and promotional material. Ryota has a total clear shade for his hair color in the actual manga, and yet in the color portions his hair is black; needless to say, the colors don't match, there's no way Ryota's paste hair can translated into black for full color portions. It could be white, green, blue or any other clear color that becomes null in Black and White, but not black. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: Happens quite a few times. When Himiko attacks Ryouta, he manages to get her to hit herself with her own stun gun. This also happens to Masashi Miyamoto and Masahito Date. | |

Do with Him as You Will | |
| Btooom! (Manga) / int_dccc5309 | comment |
Do with Him as You Will: Date, wounded fairly badly by his own bomb, is at the mercy of Ryouta, and then Shiki says she'll spare him the blood on their hands by killing him. Date then apologizes to her, and despite having a very good reason to kill him, she ultimately chooses to save his life instead. | |
