You’re getting worked up for a really silly thing. I can find dozens of reason why sleep-pking would be dangerous even if you woke up real-life style within the game.

For instance if a “to the death” duel has been chosen, you can say goodbye to that forfeit. The PK-er just needs to charge his strongest attack and he’ll have a serious lead by the time you regain your composure. Depending on the relative levels he might even have time to kill you while you’re confused and before you have time to choose forfeit.

Also the game does have status effects; if your opponent started with a paralysis attack, it’s GAME OVER for you no matter what you try.

Not to mention the show doesn’t even mention the chance of success. Perhaps sleep pk-ing has only ever been successful one every twenty times…. which is already way too much a risk to take in a life-or-death game.

Really, I don’t see what problem with suspension of disbelief there is here.


Note that the game was not designed with sleeping within it in mind. Normally players would log off when they feel sleepy. It just happens that they can’t log off since Kabaya tweaked the game.
