Gambling Apocalypse Kaiji
What did you think of this episode?
| wowwwww |
 |
| This anime roxx, Ishida :'( I'm so sad he died like that .... |
 |
| WOW. That was incredible. Ishida's death has to be one of the most emotional I have seen in an anime. The last moment with Sahara running was really intense too. It is a real shame so many anime watchers don't know what they are missing out on by dismissing this anime because of its unusual art. Tonegawa's speech did hit close to home... I wish there were more anime with this kind of gritty realism. |
Syanaide said: Thats exactly how I felt when I saw that bastard's grin during the previews. I hope they don't screw the guy over too bad! Duh. I don't watch previews in Kaiji because they are too spoilerish for my taste. He grined, you say? Well, I do have some other ideas... for example: "Congratulations, Sahara, Kaiji - here is your reward: pile of cash of 20 milion yen, all in the banknots of smallest values possible. You do have some bags with you to pack them, don't you? Ah, and btw - because the elevators are not working and stairways are closed you'll have to come back using the same route you get here, it's not a big deal for you after all" |

| Damn bugs ._. Anw FREAKING MINDBLASTING EPISODE. Im still shaking... The shinigami at the beginning and their acts were simply creepy. Again Tonegawa spoke the true... Ishida's Death scenae was simply amazing :S i kinda feel sorry for him but he left the world with dignity. His last actions made him a better person :). The reference of humans walking all alone the same beam and Sahara and Kaiji pushing themselves up to the ending was great. Although i thought Sahara would fall in the dash now i thought he wouldn't have strenght to come up. But then i saw the preview =S well the narrator had spoken to so it wasn't much of a spoiler. I didn't think the deaths were too fast. Its was chain reaction like. I think the speed that they feel one after another added a feeling of how life is fragile and how we are even fragile when it comes to emotions and surviving. If they say that the tickets have expired i will hate this series :S it will ruin Ishida completly =S. Although in the preview they were clapping. Female Characters! Oh wait we didn't saw her face (i think) Oh there is no net ;) PS: We should create a Ishida Memory whatever or a Ishida Memorial. He was damn brave at the end :'( |

| Kaiji 14 delivered as usual. It was pretty sad to see Ishida go like that. I wonder what kind of impact it'll have on Kaiji. |
 |
| every time an episode poll for this show goes up its almost 5's across the board and the comments by all the posters are always extremely positive. How is this show not rated at least above an 8 on this website? lol |
| I only rate after i finish the anime. Rules of the house :). But atm it goes for straight 10. Score: 7.961 (scored by 398 users). HMmmmmm Premature rating ftl :S I think thats the reason After some short research on the profiles and stuff i am like you and can't understand why Kaiji is only rated 7.96. There should be an option that would allow the users to see the final rating only :) . Anw there are tons of reasons like people dont liking RPS and rating low or simply they are not watching the second arc. Oh and the 1st arc was weaker. This one is kickass |

| Looking at it again, Tonegawa's speech was probably the result of Akagi's ghost posessing him. It sounded exactly like his opponent profiles. And yeah, Kaiji is underrated, although judging that the vast, vast majority of people rated it above 8, it should probably be higher. (169 above to 107 below, with 112 at) |
| Shameless Blog Plugging: animetics.net |
| I had already ranked Kaiji a solid 8. This episode bumped it up to 9. |

WTF? The world is out of balance. |

This one is kickass I'm positive that if Kaiji continues to deliver this kind of intensity throughout the show, it will end up like Baccano; getting lots of 10's once the show ends. It was very underrated at first, but now it's in the Top 250 for Popularity and Top 20 for ranked anime. |
| Tonegawa will just drag Kaiji into another game or will make Kaiji pay an non existing debt or something like that. I will wait and get surprised. Yes if Kaiji continues this way it will surely bump up in the Tops just as Baccano or Terra E did. Just do some publicity too :) |
| Best episode so far. I'm feeling that kaiji somehow mess ups in next ep and ends up with more debt. |
  |
| Now i put my brains to work. What IF Kaiji can only use one of the 2 tickets to get the money. What will he do? I think he will get the money for Ishida's Wife. |
| This episode was simply awesome! This is why I just love psychological animes :D Also, poor Ishida-san T_T |
| Did Ishida really have to die? I'm so glad he didn't beg for Kaiji to come and save him, becuase Kaiji would actually go to him and hold him up or something!? Whew. So annoying Ishida is GONE. The other dudes just like... DIED. WIN Sahara RAN. CRAZY |
   |
| Ishida death was really emotional ;_ ; |
 |
| Awesome stuff. The shimmeryness below sort of looked like water though... |
| FUCK! Ishida died :( |
| Ishida went out gracefully. As someone mentioned here before, I think they'll tell Kaiji that it's a 1 ticket per candidate deal and he'll feel obligated to give the 10 000 yen to Ishida's wife. This will leave him broke and in debt as usual and paves the way to more crazy gamble games. |
