I think this was the enjoyable episode for me......actually I think this was the best episode of Kaiji yet...and it didn't even have any gambling yet.

The speech the Chairman made about apologies was epic.

I definitely think that this is a matter for contention. I agree that Andou and Furuhata were certainly acting in part out of survival instinct (reducing their debts in the outside world). But I think that their decision to backstab Kaiji was made a lot more due to plan profiteering than anything else.

I mean, think about it, if they were acting purely out of survival instinct, why didn't they use their brains a bit more to help out Kaiji when they were really trying to survive - on the gambling floor? Don't you think it was a LITTLE bit weird how they only start to use their brains and scheme once they survived the gamble?

One word: Ow.

I just pretty saw episode 22 half an hour ago and damn, I couldn't help but to cover my mouth with one hand as it just stood there open as Tonegawa took all of his pride and simply knelt on that hellish device for 12 seconds. Like Kaiji said, he really is first-rate, having withstood that, it pretty much kept me on the edge of my seat.

Edit: Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!

Whoa, Tonegawa being grilled almost made me feel sorry for him.
Also, I wonder what kind of idea someone can have, just by stepping on a tissue box =P

Maybe it was explained yet, but what's bugging me really hard is why can those guys walk again?

They all fell down from about 8 meters. They should not be able to walk like nothing happened.

Woah, that was crazy that Tonegawa grilled himself.

TAKE THE MONEY KAIJI AND LEAVE DAMMIT...

One of the most painful episodes I've EVER seen in anime. Totally crazy! Each episode tops the one before it! Each arc is more intense than the last! Yet so far, 2 people have voted only ok for this episode.

Tonegawa is totally in a class of his own. His own pride, his own honor, his own dignity. Truly a man above others. He earned my utmost Respect with his apology in this episode.

It's a pity this show is not more mainstream. Whether due to it's artwork or other factors, those who don't watch this series are really losing out on one of the most intense series in anime.

That was sick :(

Kaiji, you're a fucking genius but just go, man. Go. Leave and go to the hospital. That fact that he has the money is a miracle.

Even though the chairman is the devil, I kind of agree with him with the sincere apology thing. I don't approve of human BBQ, though.

One of the best episodes.

Makes me wonder when will Kaiji's newfound friends backstab him and rob him blind... but still Kaiji, damn man, it took you too long to realise what obvious from the start, that Tonegawa is a puppet, that the big bad iss the chairman.
BTW talking about the chairman, that geezer really has to die, his speech on sincerity rung true but whether he himself is sincere depends on whether he ever had to endure the tortures he puts others in, he's a depraved sadist either way, but if he's been through it, at least he's a sincere depraved sadist, somehow I doubt it though.

lol what a sadist...but seriously..there are better things to do with money than torturing people..just ask Tiger Woods

I wonder what kind of plan he has now.

That old hag sure is a fucking sadist.

The chairman, moe?
...what

human bbq FTW

I knew Kaiji would win but I want to know how he formulated his plan..

But couldn't help to get tensed while watching Kaiji flipped his card..

Liked the monologue and the chairman's "apology and sincerity" issue..

Also, the Roast Kneeling was insane!!

Yet, Tonegawa added more 2 secs of his agony..

Kaiji may have a point that the chairman is his enemy and not Tonegawa but

why can't he just leave.. Anyway, looking forward from his inspiration from

a crushed toilet box..

After the end of steel beam crossing arc, i said this series is over-emotive. well hell yes it is, but this arc was just so damn awesome and sick thing to watch so i recovered my interest to this anime.. piercing the eardrum part itself was enough to make me feel uneasy. I still cant wait to see the last episode though, this series has been just way too lengthy, 16 eps would've been enough.

Oh come one Kaiji! You freaking cut off your ear, get to a fucking hospital. Too much blood loss is making you batshit insane. Take the money and leave goddamnit.

I can't help but think that Kaiji is making a terrible, terrible mistake.
