Opinion
'Trillion Game' stands out as an engaging exploration of ambition and entrepreneurship, offering viewers a mix of corporate strategy and character-driven storytelling. Directed by Yuzo Sato and animated by Madhouse, the series excels in portraying the contrasting personalities of its leads—Haru's relentless drive and Gaku's quiet determination create a dynamic partnership that anchors the narrative. While some plot points lean toward the unrealistic, the show compensates with its sharp dialogue, well-paced episodes, and intriguing rivalries. Character designs may not appeal to everyone, but the voice acting—particularly Takeo Ōtsuka as Haru and Shōya Ishige as Gaku—brings depth and charm to the characters. Fans of business dramas will appreciate the series' attention to detail in depicting corporate maneuvering, while casual viewers will enjoy its blend of humor, tension, and heartfelt moments. For those intrigued by stories of ambition and perseverance, 'Trillion Game' delivers an entertaining and thought-provoking experience.
