Grice classified the types of implicature into two that is generalized implicature and particularized implicature. In this research, the researcher found twenty data that contains conversational implicature, 16 data including particularized implicature and 4 generalized implicature. The characters more frequently used the particularized implicature than generalized implicature. In other word, the characters determine their feelings and show their personality indirectly.
