Alice in Borderland begins dramatically with a meteorite strike that transports countless individuals into an alternate reality. Here, they must engage in deadly games to survive; failure means death in the real world. Those who succeed earn a chance to reunite with their families, who await their return after the devastating incident. If you’re eager to discover who survives in Alice in Borderland Season 2, read on!
1. Ryohei Arisu
Ryohei Arisu, a skilled gamer, uses his intellect and strategic thinking to outmaneuver opponents from the beginning. Like Seong Gi-Hun from Squid Game, he prioritizes helping others. His ability to strategize and collaborate is crucial throughout the games. When Mira, the Queen of Hearts, tries to play mind games with him, Arisu counteracts by winning the ‘croquet’ game. With the supportive Yuzuha Usagi by his side, he defeats the final adversary and wakes up in a hospital, albeit with a curious twist—he does not recognize Usagi when they meet again. Will they remember their experiences in Borderland, or will they need to start afresh?
2. Yuzuha Usagi
Yuzuha Usagi’s true talents shine in physically demanding games. Her strength and unwavering trust in Arisu lead her to victories in every high-stakes contest featured in Seasons 1 and 2. For instance, in the King of Spades, her agility and quick thinking help her outsmart a sniper, allowing Arisu to clear the game. After successfully navigating the final round, Arisu and Usagi find themselves in a hospital, feeling a mysterious bond even though they do not recognize one another. In Alice in Borderland Season 3, we can expect to see the couple married, but their bliss will be interrupted when Ryuji abducts Usagi, prompting Arisu to reluctantly return to the Borderland to save her.
3. Rizuna Ann
Rizuna Ann, a forensic scientist, finds herself trapped in a nightmarish alternate reality. Much like Arisu, she displays exceptional quick-thinking skills and strategic prowess. Her forensic expertise aids her in solving complex scenarios, exemplified in the Jack of Hearts game. Although she may not have outmatched Usagi in physical strength, her determination keeps her alive. After enduring severe injuries during the King of Spades game, she too awakens in the real world once Arisu and Usagi emerge victorious against Mira.
4. Sunato Banda
Sunato Banda, known for his cunning ways as a serial killer, masters the art of manipulation within the games. He particularly shines in the Jack of Hearts, where his devious nature helps him outsmart opponents. Nevertheless, Banda chooses not to return to the real world, becoming a permanent fixture in the Borderland. In upcoming trailers, he appears to be an antagonist, handing a Joker Card to Arisu, indicating new, tougher challenges for our heroes.
5. Oki Yaba
Similar to Banda, Oki Yaba demonstrates a remarkable ability to gauge situations during Jack of Hearts. His analytical mindset allows him to forge an alliance with Banda, ultimately opting to make the Borderland his home. As we progress into the next season, fans should prepare for fierce obstacles from this complex character as he complicates the journey for Arisu and Usagi.
Characters Who Survived But Won’t Return in Alice in Borderland Season 3
1. Shuntaro Chishiya
Shuntaro Chishiya, a medical student, utilizes his keen observational skills and calculative tactics to survive. Despite his chilly demeanor and reluctance to aid others, he capitalizes on their strengths to win. In the Season 2 finale, he escapes the Borderland with Usagi, Arisu, and others. Unfortunately, due to the actor’s temporary hiatus from the industry, Chishiya will not be part of Alice in Borderland Season 3.
2. Hikari Kuina
Hikari Kuina has proven herself a fierce competitor and devoted ally. Her relentless spirit allows her to withstand brutal challenges and emerge victorious in many events. After returning with the survivors, fans were hopeful for her presence in Season 3. However, personal reasons have led the actress to step away from the role.
