I’m with you. Alice in Borderland hit so much harder than Squid Games.

A big problem that the masses have with AiB is that it’s developed from a manga, it’s the most video game-esque show we’ve had in a long time (not video game IP) but show that mimicked the style of playing a game.

And that’s just not a mass appeal thing. As opposed to having too much debt and wanting a way out because society is terrible.

Which resonated much more with a wider audience, especially older adults.
