    I’m almost sure it’s her master’s last game. Yuki will lose an eye and will receive one from her master along with a wish to win 99 games.
    The premise of the game seems simple: Let’s put empty handed veterans against heavy armed amateurs. Just to be sure amateurs don’t lose instantly, keep one veteran on their side.
    Food shouldn’t be a problem. People can survive quite a long time without food. There is drinking water so that’s fine too.
    Now the real question, why is this game so significant. Possibly because veterans, no matter how experienced, don’t stand a chance against guns? I can easily see how the vast majority of the players die but would it be really considered so significant?
    That’s the thing about this type of games. Once you have experienced enough of it nothing really seems bad anymore…

      Yeah - that’s pretty much exactly my prediction too.

      Food shouldn’t be a problem. People can survive quite a long time without food.

      Well yeah, but in the folktale, it’s not about starvation or anything - it’s just that the Tanuki tricks them.

      I can easily see how the vast majority of the players die but would it be really considered so significant?

      Right - that’s why I assume there’s going to be something more to it - something even worse than a lot of people dying - because it’s remembered as “a bad one.”
