Anyone up to date with the Kaiji manga? Is it worth reading,

It's still good. New arc looks a lot better than the last one

Watch Akagi, shits like Kaiji if he was always competent and its awesome.

>>133662963
I actually prefer Kaiji because of that, he's the disgusting and unlucky NEET. Akagi is the polar opposite, just a Mary Sue-ish character with the devil's own luck. Kaiji is infinitely more relatable.

>>133662963
You can't really compare Akagi and Kaiji. Akagi is badass and all, but Kaiji is more human. They both have their good points.

>>133662963
I prefer Ten to Akagi.
I know it's unfair because of the last few volumes of Ten being what makes Ten so good, but fuck.

>>133662963
Akagi is an entirely different character with an entirely different storyline who plays a completely different game.
"Kaiji if he was competent" would be more like Zero.

Name one thing wrong with part 3 aside from "I'm too fucking stupid to take 10 minutes to read a few simple rules."

I really hope Kazuya ends up being a part of Kaiji's harem. I can totally see this leading to Kaiji, Kazuya and Tonegawa's replacement conspiring to take down Hyoudou because he is running his own company into the ground.

I don't know a fucking thing about Mahjong and I loved part 3. That's the beauty of Kaiji, it's about the psychological battle more than the actual game. The game is just a vehicle.

The gradual realisation that Kaiji had been betrayed was fucking intense and his plan was so stupidly simple but so perfectly executed.

I know how to play mahjong nerd, my problem is the godawful pacing and the constant redundant analogies.

I don't understand mahjong either. Like you said it's more about the psychological aspect and build-up. Once things start happening it's like an emotional torrent and you just can't stop reading.

>>133664694
The pacing and analogies were the same as any other arc, excluding the Bog. If you read it weekly then I understand completely. FKMT works are meant to be read all at once.

I just don't get why he felt the need to explain what a minefield is like 4 different times.
