Kaiji: Hakairoku Hen

Hentanize · 2011-04-06T15:24:56+00:00

The sequel to Kaiji, THE anime of gambling had its first episode released just recently. I didn't see a thread after searching a bit so here it is. Quoted from RandomC: What a surreal feeling it is to be watching Kaiji again. Three years have passed since the first season ended inconclusively, but the feeling hasn’t changed. It’s still awesome. Kaiji is a psychological “warfare” anime, in vein to Death Note, but more similar to Liar Game, a very well done manga that I recommend reading if you’re already into this genre. In a sentence, Kaiji landed himself in debt, got caught up in a series of life-threatening games where he was given the chance to gamble back his debt, failed and lost, and now we’re at season two. I don’t think there’s anyone that can’t enjoy a good struggle of intelligence and wit, and if you’re worrying about not wanting to think too much, the show explains most of it for you anyway. Though, in terms of cleverness, Kaiji is not as high as Liar Game nor Death Note, but it remains quite enjoyable (partly because it’s actually being animated). Gotta agree with the statement in bold, Kaiji IS addicting. First episode got me all excited again and it's frightening how truthful it depicts real life.

I was wondering the same thing...

I guess it makes more sense to be Ichijou since he has to pay out 700milion yen. But, it wouldn't make sense that he would be directly responsible for the loss since at that one point he agreed to a "draw". He'd pay 350million and then be forced to serve... what... only 500 years?
