Is it the pinnacle of game manga?
>>157246440
Yes
>>157246440
I can't think of anything better
Kaiji is the best magna hands down
>>157246440
what about that gambling manga with the naked girl
But where are my cute girls
>>157248504
>>157248715
>>157246440
After reading so many FKMT manga, Kaiji just blurs together with the rest.
>>157246440
I'd say so. Both Zero and GTK had excellent games, but it feels as if Kaiji has the best of what fkmt has to offer in that respect.This is of course if you don't count mahjong as a game manga. Since, you know... Akagi a best.
>>157249085
i'm honestly at the point where i enjoy fkmt's older works more. i'm glad to hear people talk about kaiji, i just wish they gave more than just kaiji or just kurosawa a shot.
>>157246440
Near, Akagi/Ten better tho
>>157249337
The best part of Ten is hardly the game, but I do think there were some pretty damn great moments in the East/West battle.
Akagi though? Whew, what a thrill.
>>157246440
Sure is
>>157249702
Yeah, Ten was more life philosophy. The parts where Ten and his team were actually playing mahjong were probably the weakest in the series.
>>157246440
Pachinko arc was a mistake.
>>157250902
It gave us ichijou so i can hardly see how
>>157250902
filling the rest of the 26 eps with the pachinko arc was the mistake
>pachinko
>minefield mahjong
>salvation
>one poker
Hell no.
Kaiji should have ended in arc 1.
>>157253796
Do you think he will ever have another showdown with Hyodo, though? I wouldn't really want it to end like unfinished business.
>>157246440
>getting ready for a long ass boring night with 3 chinks
>>157246440
I know this is supposed to be very good and I'd probably enjoy this a lot since I liked One-Outs, but I really can't bring myself to like this artstyle.
>>157254011
Their business is finished. Kaiji thought he was smarter than a Yakuza boss, and he lost. He paid his debt, and whatever else is going on to him will give him what he's asking for.
>>157253796
>dissing minefield mahjong
fite merest was meh, yes
>>157254116
that's pretty damn weak, anon. most people who wanted to watch, but disliked the artstyle, got used to it by the end of the first episode.
>>157254116
>I really can't bring myself to like this artstyle
Because you're a moron.
>>157253796
But chinchirorin is the pinnacle of the series.
>>157246440
yes
>>157248715
Kaiji is cuter than any girl.
Emperor > Minefield Mahjong > Chinchirorin > Rock paper scissors > pachinko > one poker > tissue box gambit > salvation > human derby
>>157246440
quite seriously this series was the most entertaining right after code geass.
I was at the edge of my chair the whole time. A Masterpiece.
>>157255016
I thought human derby was great
>>157246440
>absolutely loved the anime, might actually be my favorite anime
>really want to read the manga from the start
>find out it was never published in the US
>>157254116
Go back to watch Moe-Shit then
Why does everyone hates Salvation Game!?
>>157256508
You can read it on batoto
>>157246440
Yes
>>157256989
i'd rather have the physical book desu
>>157256748
We don't really care about those guys as much as we care about Kaiji, even with those fucklong backstories about the brother dying in the trash heap or whatever. It gave us lots of good Kazuya content, though, so it wasn't all bad.
>>157246440
Did the second season do poorly? Kinda disappointed we may never see part 3 anime
>>157255016
Am I the only one who thought RPS was the best out of the first two parts?
>Kaiji almost completely screwed right at the beginning
>betrayed by Andou shortly after joining forces
>card buyout and double buyout by Kitami
>outsmarting Kitami anf blackmailing him like a bitch
>no one wants to play and Funai is a bitch, Kaiji wins against Funai anyway
>Andou's ultimate betrayal, Kaiji still doesn't lose
>>157254531
Best moment in the series, Chinchirorin is best.
>>157257267
The live-action movie it was made to advertise did poorly. Now we're most likely doomed to pachinko forever over a third season.
>>157255106
>right after code geass
>>157258194
I still can't believe a live-action movie happened, let alone two
>>157246440
no, these are
>>157258853
Wait Kakegurui is good? I thought it was just a fapbait design with a throwaway plot attached. Why doesn't anybody talk about it on /a/?
I just finished watching S2 of Kaiji, should I watch Akagi, or does the manga keep going after pachinko hell?
>>157259330
Yes, the manga keeps going, but both Akagi and continuing Kaiji have mahjong in store for you, so buckle up.
>>157259306
it's legitimately amazing. Nobody talks about it because nobody can comprehend a gambling manga with actually good art.
also no fucking scans. It's licensed by Yenpress and scanlators are too pussy or something to scanlate it. We have an anon who rips chapters once in a blue moon but it's been months since he did it
>>157259777
>gambling school
Fuking ridiculous
>>157258853
There are so many wrong things with this picture
Probably. I'm reading Liar Game right now and it's pretty great too though.
>>157260201
At some point I got fed up with the terrible art, I mean he literally starts reusing the same stock face expressions for the same characters over and over again.
>>157259777
>implying FKMT's art is bad
>>157259600
>>157260134
Phoneposter begone. Or at least rescale your fucking images.
>>157260280
>le dogger xd
fuck off.
>>157260134
>Fuking ridiculous
come the fuck on, premises in gambling manga are inherently stupid. Gambling school makes as much sense as using your blood to play mahjong
>>157260362
That it isn't an argument
>>157258853
>Usogui in shit tier
WHY DID A MANGA WITH SUCH A GREAT ARTIST HAVE TO HAVE SUCH A SHIT STORY AAAAAA
>>157246440
Strongest man Kurosawa > all.
>>157260501
dogy
>>157260501
Argument? What the fuck are you talking about? Stop posting godawful rescaled images, you retard.
>>157260572
But it's not a gaming manga.
And it's more of a Confused Hobo Kurosawa now.
Has Akagi ended yet.
Kaiji was great but the pachinko arc dragged on way too fucking long. Reading Akagi right now, I think I'd enjoy it a lot more if I knew how mahjong worked. Tried Kurosawa, but it was annoying to see him feeling sorry for himself every chapter.
>>157260713
It ends in like ten weeks.
>>157260689
It's about game of life. And how to try your best at not losing it.
>>157260713
No, I think there's about 6 chapters left.
>>157257556
My nigger. Underground Chinchirorin was fucking brilliant.
>>157260586
>>157260395
>betting your blood against a crazy old man in an insolated room
>gambling school full of cute sadistic girls doing cute gambling
Not the same
Are there any sites that have chapters from 24 to 28? I just started reading it and I read chapter 23 but after that it immediately goes to chapter 29. Tried searching on the internet but it only says that it was never actually translated and I m nor so sure about that.
>>157261758
No, they haven't been translated yet. People are working on the earlier ones slowly, but the priority is to work on the new chapters.
>>157255016
Electricity steel beams were the tightest episodes of all Kaiji
>>157262067
>well I guess I can wait. I will just check when was the last update
>September 3, 2013
I guess I can give up then right?
>>157262204
Yes; you can watch the anime for the part that isn't covered there.
>>157262296
>Try to find a torrent of season 1
>There are like 2 of them and they both are 480p
Life truly is suffering.
