I hate death games tragedy porn genre. But lets set that aside a moment.
He didn't commit suicide! Getting yourself killed trying to save someone is not suicide. And this implies a god, so why would god be allowing some clown to do this? For that matter I never did believe the bible says you go to hell for suicide. The reasoning is that because ten commandments say "Thou shall not kill" and killing yourself is killing meant, and you can't ask for forgiveness after killing yourself. But that's just assumptions.
Contradictions.

This page has two contradictions in itself. He's pleased in the top panel, and not pleased in the panel below it.
I won't kill/I will crush this game without killing or being killed.

"Who should I kill."
Then latter, he indicated he didn't want to kill her, even though he somehow figured out she was lying. So he will kill everyone else except for her which he thinks is a liar? Or not kill anyone, which is it?!?
Another point.
Enforced glass would be hard to talk through, it is a rather effective sound barrier. There is a reason speakers are put in visiting booths in prison and service person protected booths even with openings at the bottom of the divider to pass items. They would need to be shouting their conversations trying to convince each other with alot of "what did you say!?! Speak up!" Why not just say there is a magical barrier that prevents the lions from crossing over. This genre type, the runner of the game always has endless nonsensical power, so magical barrier would make more sense.
Well I think Ill follow so I can see what kind of explanation it gives, if it makes any sense at all in chapter 2. But not a good start.
