| 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. |
| That old hag sure is a fucking sadist. |
  |
| 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.. |
| 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. |

| Kaiji's strategy wasn't that hard to figure out but it's easy to say that while sitting in front of TV and just watching the series. It would be a much harder tast if we were to be his opponents. I wonder what ran through Kaiji's head at the end of the episode... Plus, Tonegawa is a man - I really didn't think he would endure such severe punishment. +1 for him then, lol. |
 |
| I wonder what Kaiji thought of when he saw the crushed tissue box but he probably should have just took the money and run... and reattach that ear! |
| Geez Where does kaiji come up with all of his crazy ideas?! |

 O.o Lol xD |

| Holy shit this show is freaking awesome. It has almost everything I could have ever wanted in a psychological thriller. I used to hate the gritty art style, but even that has grown on me lately. These characters are impossible to not love, like seriously. Tonegawa is a true badass for enduring that hellish torture. That chairman, on the other hand, really needs to fucking die. I hope Kaiji will shut him up and finally avenge his friends, and maybe even Tonegawa. |
 |
| This show kinda reminds me of saw.... |
 |
| I used to think that the characters in this show were repulsive, but that chairman just took it to new lengths. Also, glad to see Kaiji getting some support. He deserves it. |
 |
| I think Kaiji might actually be a damn genius. |

| The ojisan might be extreme and insane, but his logic behind people who aren't sincere when they are apologizing hits the spot. |
 |
| JUST TAKE THE MONEY AND LEAVE FFS!!!!! AHHHHHHHHH |
| :3 |
| Woaw, this old fart is just raving mad. I hope he dies in an even more horrible way. Don't tell me he will gamble all the money he just won... |

| I would take the money and leave. The director will die soon anyway due to his age lol |
| Wow, they even managed to make me feel bad for Tonegawa... That's something. The old man is one evil fucker. That was some medieval level of torture. Brutal. I really wonder what is that plan of Kaiji. I'm pretty sure he'll try to take advantage of his new bandage, but I don't see how he could while being subtle. |

| The chairman is the devil himself >_> |
 |
| Say what you will about Tonegawa, but that man is hardcore. Insane episode, just like always. |
| It was predictable but i really liked it, finally Kaiji wins and beats that annoying smart-ass Tonegawa, i hated him especially with his lame laugh. I hope he will kick the director's ass too. Great Episode. |
| Damn that kneeling scene was disgusting. Like holy shit. But exellent episode as always. |
| kaiji just take that damn money and go pay your debts and buy some store and run it !! |
 |
| Look at all those guys. They look way to healthy for someone that fell from a 10 meter height a few hours ago. |
 |
| Dude, just take your millions and go, live your life, forget about the Director. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| The card being a Slave was expected but that monologue sure was intense~ These are the last words of me and my comrades! I know that Tonegawa's a son of a bitch for killing Ishida and Sahara back at the bridge, but that punishment was just sickenly sadistic ;-; I didn't spend a single second not freaking out over the sight and sound of someone kneeling down with his forehead frying on a sizzling plate. Props to him for doing it in one go. Even Kaiji shed sympathetic tears for him. I'm happy that those cripples stood up for themselves (in a literal sense tho lol) and helped Kaiji with cheers and first aid. That dude frantically pulling tissues one by one and getting called an idiot xD It's thanks to that tissue box that he'll risk himself again after thinking up of another convoluted plan again~ |
 |
| this reminds me of monster somehow...such a thriller Tonegawa got burned...felt sorry for the guy a bit too...and now he wants to go on the chairman...oh well a few more episodes to go of the season 5/5 |
Sayonara,papa! "Just how a mirror reflects you,people will also reflect your heart." ~Athena Glory,Aria "Whatever happens,happens" ~Spike Spiegel's thoughts on dying(Cowboy Bebop) |
| That was too painful to watch, poor Tonegawa. |
 |
| Kaiji is such a stubborn idiot. He has enough money to pay off the debt from Ishida's family, pay off his own debt, and live the rest of his life in comfort. But he still wants to risk it all. It wasn't even the Director that killed his friends, it was Tonegawa, and he got his revenge. So why continue? Go to a hospital man. Fix your ear. This episode legitimately pissed me off. |
| Errr...this episode really...nope. Tonegawa should be DEAD. No way anyone could be alive after that, lol. Considering how much the iron was heated (dark red heat, so around 400-500 °C) and how high the flames were going (enveloping all of him literally), 12 seconds of direct contact with the forehead are more than enough to make all the blood inside the head go above 44 °C, making the arteries explode...bringing death due to internal bleeding. Kneeling on it isn't 100% fatal (well it is for the legs...), but the forehead is the killing point. That's the "Nope" of this episode. Flawless episode for all the rest. We have winning Kaiji thanks to his "companions", a rich asshole, a fried asshole and a whole lot of identical grunts. Nothing out of the ordinary. |
| bruh |
| This old fella. From loving him to hating him to loving him to hating him, it never ends! |
 |
| Tonegawa was a fucking man in the end. What a hellish pain that must have been. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| I trusted you man that was so cool of Kaiji to say. |
| Wow...I thought for sure I would enjoy Kaiji's victory more than I did. And yes, my fists were pumping in the air initially, but...seeing Tonegawa kneel down like that on that sizzling hot platform was just disturbing...I did not enjoy seeing that. Tonegawa is a heartless asshole but he's not a sadistic, bloodthirsty psychopath like the director. I feel that Kaiji's real war has only just begun. |

| Poor Tonegawa. It seems that Kaiji is going to play against the sadist old man. pls just leave Kaiji. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Oh no, Kaiji, just go home. Weren't those guys from support group supposed to be all broken and in need of hospital attention themselves? And I find it unrealistic that they just stand there holding onto Kaiji's money. They weren't even connected with him like the guys from rock-paper-scissors and those bastards betrayed him anyway. It just looks ridiculous, I almost expected Kaiji to just give up the money and share between them if they are apparently so buddy-buddy for whatever reason already. |

| Hopefully that chairman gets something even worse done to him. |
