Man. That last half of that last arc was painful. I understand that the manga was still ongoing, so I'll grudgingly accept the cliffhanger ending (could have been a bad filler ending and that benefits no one), but damn, to drag it out so much and STILL not finish the game? There had to be a better way. Second half started out so well, too. It's a shame.

9/10 for the first half, 7/10 for the second half too. 8/10 overall.

Would have preferred Wahizu to die of a heartattack in the end, but well, guess this has to be enough.
Still, kinda unsatisfying..

The akagi anime was awesome but the ending was really abrupt. I understand the reason but now that the manga is done I keep hoping that they make an ova because i read the manga and the match gets even more insane. I wont reveal too much but basically wahsizu loses all his money and starts betting his own blood. Akagi "dies" twice and Ohgi almost loses his arm. If your want to find out what happens to akagi the look up the manga TEN- the path of the nice guy. It does not star akagi but it features him in his fifties as one of the main characters. It is done by the same artist that did akagi. Dont mine the art it gets better over time. And it shows the the fate and death of Akagi Shigeru

Thanks for saying something crimson. These psychological thrillers are loaded with subliminal messages and the last thing I need right now after watching 26 episodes in 3 days is to feel untied in my brain for the next month.

The guy who writes these stories is brilliant. It is funny how I came across his work. I saw the second season of Kaiji thinking it was the first, then I saw the first season, then I saw he had done Akagi. LOL.

Alright, glad this thread was here. I ended the series with a wtf expression on my face and exclaimed fml after OMGWTFLOL

peace bitches

Gotta say ... WTF is with this ending? Lol O_O Akagi won, methinks, but ...
Meh, I gotta say the end dragged it out too long :S I didn't mind the art style and I really loved the music haha XD Erm ... characters ... OK ... I'd give this 8.5/10 ... but ... I have to round this one down unfortunately :P

Very anti climatic, really needs a proper ending. I'd still give the series a solid 8/10.

Good series, anti climatic ending lets the series down as a whole. Still a great, solid watch, I'd rate it overall 8/10 due to the "painful" ending.

manga spoiler:

Near the end I kept thinking that he had transfused extra blood into his body when he went to the doctor before they went to the mansion. Also, why the energy drinks? I know he says it is just so he won't be drugged but somehow I don't think that's all of it at all.

This was definitely a satisfying ending for me.
At the very least, they showed the winner and showing Akagi is still Akagi after all those years.

thatcakagi!!

Ending was way too sudden, this could've easily made a 10 afskdjbgkjbsdfkjgkjsbndflkmgsdfg

same thing that happened with Claymore & Elfin Lied... rushed ending... dammit again :(

Akagi and Kaigi are presentations of anime at its best though. Glad to have stumbled upon them through MAL's DeathNote "recommendations" lol .

Disappointing ending. They already took it too far with the Washizu arc, so they should have at least concluded it. I guess it didn't become a drag to watch to the level the Bog arc in Kaiji did, since despite being too long it was still rather well-paced, especially in comparison, but still... still...

It was an alright serie and I enjoyed it :)

bah, really sudden ending lets the series down. It was fun till this last final arc, then it suddenly got a slower pace and ends with an abrupt ending without even showing how the game is concluded.

That was a fast ending.

I enjoyed the ride, I like Mahjong even more now, i'll give it a 8/10

very exciting end but mahjong rules is complicated ... i still prefer Kaiji

What happened to all those bag full of energy drinks?

Akagi second season when? I Keep on waiting and nothing :(
