kaiji kun one more beer and sausages you'll be s happy hhhmmmm yeah hai kaiji kun motto motto haiā¦..
Kaiji was a little B with a little D.
Akagi tho
There's never any tension or excitement in Akagi because he's always four hundred steps ahead of everyone.
Except that time he was straight-up stabbed when playing dice.
Besides, it's not really about that. You know the protagonist will win in the end regardless.
...
That's why Kaiji is way better though. Think it was E-card that was my absolute favorite cause I genuinely had no idea what was going to happen or who would win. It was great.
ANDOU YOU PIECE OF SHIT
What is happening in one hen poker? Spoil it for me please, the translations are too slow.
But Washizu beat him
I think Kazuya is about to bet his red life, and Kaiji is trying to convince him not to because Kaiji thinks he has a better card.
Was every single person in this manga a piece of shit? Was that the moral of the story?
Trust no one. Not even yourself.
Kaiji is like Jonouchi (tons of luck and goes from bad player to a pretty good one) and Akagi like Yugi(natural talented and a genius even in stuff he is playing for the first time).
?
wait what? Kaiji is the one hanging upside down, no way the game will continue, right?
>implying you dont lose your mind whenever he pulls some incredible shit
hm
What an unusual comparison hahah, but I don't know if I'd say so. Besides sometimes being lucky, Kaiji often needed to make his own luck.
As for Yugi and Akagi, well I think it's kinda funny how people who went against Akagi sometimes said that its like he's possessed by a demon so thats why he has such good luck- when Yugi was /actually/ possessed.
Although obviously fkmt and takahashi are trying to portray/achieve different things through their characters.
Their motivation was so incredibly forced and stupid.
I think Sakazaki is the only one who didn't backstab Kaiji in some way and is still alive.
And yes, that's kinda the point, most people in this show are gambling addicts, who wouldn't think twice of selling your mother if they get some kind of profit later on, even if they were your most trustful companions a minute ago (and actually meant it).
Okay I chuckled.
literally if they stopped to think for actual five seconds none of that would have happened.
Even if they resented Kaiji for whatever fucking stupid reason, I just find hilarious that they actually went and tried to fool someone that managed to win the underground game and the bog. I mean, sure, it almost worked, but they really didn't give him any credit.
plus like even if he DID cheat them, he gave them their lives back and freed them. for anyone that should have been enough. i know they helped by giving him their money (right?) but kaiji was running the real risk.
DAGA
Kotowaru.
Didn't he get out of it by claiming he could bet the lives of his two "friends" since he bought their lives last arc?
beat him to what? dying?
DAGA
OTOKO DA
>watching electric current steel frame crossing for the first time
...
I don' t think nothing else in anime has made me feel like those episodes.
They are just rationalizing their betrayal.
KUYASHII
Best part
my face during the whole season
That'll probably happen, but I don't think it has yet.
Damn, who is this sweet vagina-possessing vixen?
HE'DEAD (?)
Mikoko wasn't.
Neither was that one guy with the glasses that fell to his death.
>He fell silently
zawa
ENDLESS
EJACULATION
So I dropped this show after the first arc, the way he threw everything away to save that one old piece of shit that even kaiji said was a piece of trash kind of seemed like all his character development had backslid. Is it worth picking it back up if stuff like that pisses me off
real human bean
Based tsundere yakuza guy
i dont really understand what youre tryna say, but kaiji does get less naive, but hes still a kind hearted person. the final showdown in the first season is pretty great
[spoilers]i actually like the second season better although not a lot of people would agree[/spoilers]
So, why is there no S3? I heard something about dude weed lmao?
They were under the impression that kaiji was a fucking billionaire
since they didn't knew endou had fucked him over with the money
The composer got arrested for smoking pot and Japan's drug laws are ridiculously strict so he's pretty much never going to work again.
>forgetting about based teiai black suit
This scene literally made me tear up
Also, there's Sakazaki but the problem was Kaiji took him for granted and literally became a NEET freeloading at his house
Also there was his paranoia about kaiji fucking his daughter
Wew. Rip in peace I guess. Kaiji's soundtrack was one of my favorites too.
Posting obligatory suffering anime list
Then who the hell made the pachinko trailer for S3
I think pachinko is what killed Kaiji S3
fuck you japan
What episode and season was this, how do I not remember this scene
S2 final episode (episode 26)
Does sonickrazy have any plans to scanlate the whole of kaiji part 1?
Cause the paid scans are so shit you're better off reading the raws than that
Cause it would be quite interesting to see what scenes the anime omitted compared to the manga
Like I watched S2 anime and read the manga side by side and I found it to be pretty fucking faithful, just removed some Fukumoto metaphors, infographs for the gambles and two scene(one involving hyodou's prologue speech which is referenced in the OP and detailed sakazaki backstory scene)
I honestly want to know where Fukomoto is going with this.
Kazuya and Kaiji are direct opposites of each other.
>Kazuya is rich, Kaiji is poor
>Kazuya was okay with sharing riches he had with his friends, Kaiji never gave anything in his life to anyone
>When Kazuya faced danger he immediately wanted someone else to stick his neck out for him, Kaiji always sticks his neck out for others
>When Kazuya felt betrayed he became jaded, Kaiji still believes in people even after Ando
Even in latest chapters he lost because chink dude he saved stopped him
You really picked your suffering well...
Theres this whole thing that like, S2 was probably only made to promote the upcoming kaiji live action movie (that wast all that good) and there were never any plans for an actual season 3. Although I am grateful for the panchiko animations- really wanted to see Kazuya.
I've kinda noticed fkmts works getting a lot of live action treatment- the Gin to Kin series that started airing in January is actually pretty neat.
SHKAAAAAAAAASHI
I've only read manga, I thought anime is 1:1 manga.
>Kaiji finally dies
Oh god why
me too user, i can't wait to see what's in store
How did you read part 1 then? The scans only go upto vol 2
Unless you read the raws
Also the paid scans are total shitshow so if you read them then I suggest you're better off watching the anime
new season when?
never
I just read the ones in Madokami. Didn't mind it too much, to be honest, Kaiji is not a hard manga to read.
>Tfw agaki and washizu's match is finally over
Fucking hell, I'm in disbelief
Watched akagi anime back in 09 and now only had there been an proper conclusion to the washizu arc
Also, this isn't the end of the manga, right?
Didn't fukumoto say that washizu match isn't the final arc and that there will be more (hinting at akagi possibly playing against that bald legendary guy in ten)
That part made my palms sweat like never before. Just thinking about it makes them tingle
Thanks Chang.
THANKS FUCKING CHANG.
I know I'm already late for this, but
SIT
DOWN
Whoever Kazuya's VA was for the pachinko thing was great.
Kaiji just told Kazuya what card Kazuya has and he freaked out because Kazuya is betting his life.
>dying
Washizu is alive again in 297.
is there any show similar to pic related kaiji that isn't akagi?
Theres apparetnly an "epilogue arc" to be. I'm really looking forward to seeing whether it will be reminisicing on the washizu match, or setting the footing for ten.
SUE
GOY
I know, right? He really sounded like a rich edgy snob teen, if I recall well. What a champ.
OH
I am thinking they'll become best buds, with Kazuya as the stepping stone towards the true boss, pickle nose.
Is there anyone who actually wants Akagi to continue after this? Where can you go after a 20 year long match?
>Where can you go after a 20 year long match?
Find out how Akagi becomes so chill at the start of Ten.
...
Kazuya's a teenager? I thought he and Kaiji were the same age.
No, dude he's like in highschool! He's 17. (I know... right?)
>Whoever Kazuya's VA was
He was played by Kappei Yamaguchi
That movie sure looks edgy
>No Bokurano
You do not know what true suffering is
Yeah, and this isn't so much a continuation, but Washizu doesn't get to die without realizing defeat.
>in Dagashi thread
>posting Kaiji's DAGA SHIKASHI
>no (You)'s
>This thread
>some user do the same thing except the opposite
>got (You)'s
It's not fair.
>ywn see one poker arc animated
why even live?
at least chang makes up for his fuck up later on
>He's 17
No fucking way.
Was S2 better or worse than S1? Trying to decide if worth picking up
>kazuya's shirt matches his childhood trunks
Why the fuck would Kazuya want to fuck over his dad?
Kek, isn't that dude who gave money to Kaiji?
Kazuya doesn't exactly care about his dad, while he's shown interest in Kaiji and started sharing some intense moments.
Kazuya is not a dumb kid, he lives in cash because his dad runs things and he has no experience or knowledge to run billions of worth criminal empire. Who the fuck would follow a preppy kid.
If he would get a true friend out of it he would do it
all the suits look same
plus,this was probably a decade ago or so, i doubt its the same guy
