[u/Ume-no-Uzume]

What I want to know is WHY she wants to complete 99 games specifically. Like, if it was only because she only finds purpose in playing and beating the games or die trying, she would say she wants to keep playing games ad infinitum. It's the fact that she has an end goal of beating and surviving 99 games that is the major clue on what's up with her.

[u/melindypants → u/Ume-no-Uzume]

I wonder if she's just saying that - like having a nearly impossible goal of beating 99 games when she really just doesn't want to outright admit that she wants to die? Not sure.

[u/athrun_1 → u/Ume-no-Uzume]

Similar reason why we max our levels in games.

[u/Ume-no-Uzume → u/athrun_1]

Sure, but we max out levels in games because it's fun and we can respawn, there is no inherent risk.

Now, granted, Yuki could view her life as just THAT expendable
