Hey folks, I’m not sure why but I’m suddenly in the mood for exaggerated mental disputes, the kind of “hah, you’ve fallen for my trap, as I’ve predicted your moves 24 steps ago” and “oh, but actually, I knew that and YOU have fallen for my trap” dispute.

It can be cheesy or over the top, like in Death Note, or more serious and actually plausible, like on Liar Game, I’m just craving more of that.

Thanks!

    I would honestly recommend sports anime like Haikyuu or Prince of Tennis for this kind of thing. Sports anime always lean really hard into the mental game and you’ll have whole scenes playing out in freeze frame or slow-mo while characters painstakingly walk through their plans. I’m a sucker for that kind of thing
