So /a/ what was your favorite gamble?

Mine was the lottery one. It was short, simple, but it also managed to improve Kaiji as character and show the difference in experience between him and Hyoudou.

>>157586088
I'm still catching up because nipspeak is hard, but are the two madmen actually all in against each other

>>157587857
Gotta say the chinchiro game was really satisfying.

>>157587857

I loved every single moment of Minefield Mahjong. Every time my memory of that arc has faded just enough for me to enjoy it again, I reread it. Repeated this at least 5 or 6 times by now.

>>157594079
My nigga. It's a shame so many people dropped the series at this point just because they didn't know Mahjong. This arc was utterly amazing, and it helped me to become interested in Fukumoto's other series.

>>157584777

I cannot fucking believe there has been so much that hasn't been translated. I thought people really loved Kaiji, why is translating so fucking slow?

>>157590673

>>157584146
Just do it yourself, man. That's what I'm doing for Nejimaki Kagyuu since it's been basically dead for a year.

>>157594390

The fact that raws of chapters way way way ahead of what's been translated are uploaded on the internet. We are just getting started on betting the 2 red life and raws are almost done the entire game.

>>157586088

>>157594248

Yea I've gotta go with Mahjong as well. The ending where kaiji reveals that he has ron just fucks me up every time

>>157594505

>>157595743
i dont want best boy to die cant they just be friends :((

>>157594181
I got into Fukumoto through Akagi, so by the point Minefield Mahjong was translated there wasn't much for me to be put off by. I can see how it'd be intimidating for people who don't know any mahjong, but it's great regardless. I would say that arc is better than any match in Akagi, but there are a few comparable games in Ten.

>>157584209
Where would someone even casually find them anymore? I see them on madokami, and bakabt is often down now. Everywhere else I see just has the initial couple volumes.

>>157590673
I really hope he doesn't, but the stage has been set. Him being so likeable even though he's terrible was red flaggish when you think about it. All good things must come to an end

>>157598930
>I would say that the arc is better than any match in Akagi
I don't really remember 17steps that well anymore, but if you're right I really want to check it out again. I reckon I must have not known enough about mahjong when I read it, but maybe it's just my shitty memory.
It did give us the most iconic 'take everything one step at a time' smile Kaiji so obviously it was overall good.

>>157594248
Because theres only 1 group doing all fukumoto manga.

>>157586536
Can you even imagine him just going up to that working site, seeing some builders and flat out asking how many tons does he need to tilt the building on that kind of soil? And they apparently just answer without wanting anything in return? Amazing.

>>157594079
I have to skip maybe 40 chapters in that. I get tired of all the faking and bullshit from that casino boss.

Once Kaiji and him start really competing it's fun.

Which is why it goes slow.
Be happy that at least Akagi is on equal schedule with JPN.
I'm pretty sure that when Akagi ends next year, they will have more time to dedicate to Kaiji and finally catch up.

I'm sorry, where can I find the anime for Part 3 and onwards again?

>How far behind are we?
Kaiji is literally about 100 chapters behind.
But believe me when I say it that it's 100 chapters of Washizu Mahjong-tier filler.
From what's translated in English it may seem like the game is about to end soon, then you realize you've got 100 chapters more to go.
The good news is, the duel is legit about to end now in JP.

>>157601389

Why does everyone hate Mario and Chang so much
I just got to the part where they're betting their lives with Kaiji's and they seem pretty based so far

>>157620002
I don't hate them at all as characters but I disliked how the first part of Kazuya-hen was based entirely on three guys we had never seen before
That's probably why some people dislike them

>>157620002
I had a little beef with Chang for a duration of a chapter or two, when he threw off Kaiji's deductuon which would have been correct. But putting his life at stake with Mario definitely redeemed him instantly.

>>157621449
You can't really blame him for that, staking your life on a 2 is nuts when you get down to it

>>157622128

>>157622595
To be fair, Kaiji's logic was flawed, even if the end result was the same. He was thinking "I'm at the end of my rope with a two, and if he played an Ace before, then he has pocket Aces!!! In hindsight Chang was wrong, but in the moment that was a fair call to make, considering Kaiji didn't know about the Ace Button at the time. I'll have to reread that section, but I think its the first time Kazuya used the Ace Button.

>>157623338
The Salvation Game is just an extended setup for One Poker. Several things in Kazuya-Hen are later utilized in One Poker. It definitely was longer than it needed to be, but if Kaiji didn't go on break for over a year and a half for Zero Part 2, then I feel like it wouldn't be hated nearly as much.

>He was thinking "I'm at the end of my rope with a two, and if he played an Ace before, then he has pocket Aces!!
That wasn't his reasoning
He was considering why Kazuya's guards would leave him all alone if they weren't 100% sure he'd win the next hand. So he thought Kazuya was cheating and went for the 2
Chang fucked over Kaiji's gambling sense, which in Fukumoto manga takes precedence over logic, statistics and even God himself
