We see Yuma and others sacrifice their private content for all to see in order to survive the next “fiery” task. It’s the second half of the entry that’s a big shocker as Yuma is exposed for putting on an act, we see a unexpected side of him, who his family is and possibly putting this long twisted game to an end. A- (91%/Excellent)

4.5/5
The cover got me intrigued . Something is fishyyyy..
When the "face off" came up I felt "ohhh yeahhhhhh spicy" and "meh, that's convenient" at the same time.


But then the final twist came in and I DIDN'T SEE IT COMING . ( Apart from the slight initial boredom this was spicy . )

Seriously Yuma? How could you? What is going on?

I'm excited to read the next one, but nervous as to what this will all mean for the two twins!

I'd kinda wandered away from this series some years back, because something about it just kept missing the mark as it went on. Recently, I discovered it was available to read on Manga Plaza, so I decided to give it another shot, now that I don't have to shell out twelve bucks per volume. And...I'm still very much on the fence.

Things really get shaken up in this volume, courtesy of the "Flamer Festival" game. Suddenly, it's revealed that Yuma isn't the sort of person we thought he was, and there's a huge part of his family's history that, if true, I find somewhat hard to swallow. Plus, Mizuki finally gets the tables turned on him, in a development that's, uh...really, really bizarre. Like, YouTube conspiracy theory rabbit hole-levels of bizarre. As if all that weren't jarring enough, the surviving players find themselves seemingly back in the real world at the very end of the volume, where things escalate pretty dramatically.

It's a lot to process, and I'm not sure I like some of the changes, but at least I can say Real Account never rests on its laurels. I can't really say volume six has me recommending you go out and buy this series, but if you have a Manga Plaza subscription, and you're looking for a decent game of death series, it's worth a read so far.

Proseguono i temibili giochi nella realtà virtuale di ReAc e questa volta si dovranno rivelare i più oscuri segreti dei nostri protagonisti, in particolare di Yuuma che mostrerà a tutti il suo vero essere. Un volume intrigante e appassionante, e con un bel finale misterioso come da tradizione. L'unica cosa che mi continua a dare "fastidio" è il fatto che Yuuma è il protagonista, mentre il povero Ataru dal volume 3 ci ha abbandonato e non si sa come e quando spunterà fuori (ormai sto perdendo così tanto le speranze che mi verrebbe quasi da dire "se" tornerà a far parte della storia...). Insomma noi lettori sappiamo il legame tra i due (e in questo volume c'è pure un'altro piccolo misterioso accenno alla cosa), ma io voglio che si incontrino ed interagiscano tra di loro, chiedo troppo?

This volume has a lot of revelations especially about Yuma.

The game is called The Great Flamer Festival. Players must expose their personal secrets in order to burn down a tower.

Things get tense when the phones start being switched randomly and a dark secret is revealed about Yuma.

So many questions are left after this volumes completion

A friend once told me that she'd go insane if her phone went missing because her entire life is logged inside the apps inside.

This sort of reminds me of that. Sometimes you just don't know what the innocent-looking person in front of you have got in their phones ._.

I enjoyed the Flame War, however I think I might need a break from the series. I’m no longer interested in picking them up after I finish one and it takes me a long time to get through them. Not sure what happened but they seem to be getting to complicated with all the characters.

I know others may view this as an Assassination Classroom rip-off, but it does have its own merits. It definitely keeps my attention at least!

Just because you don't have any memories, doesn't mean you can't remember how to f*** someone up.

Yuma, why oh why.

This volume involved more brute force and less cleverness. I have one volume left.
