Man, Tonegawa needs to find better ways to promote themselves if they want more respect.

I still like the guy's personality and motivation to succeed though.

Seeing Endou reminded me how much I hate that guy...

This was fun episode for sure. The origin of the 'restricted rock-paper-scissor' seems to had a lot of critical flaws initially than it looks like. Nice to see Endou but was so-so disappointed to fake Kaiji :| because for a moment I thought we was going to see Kaiji.. at least his crazy backstories taught them the reality. Anyway had a hard laugh seeing how they was attempting to fix the flaws and Endou's idea was all over place and seems to create mess up for Tonegawa and not much progress made at the end of day XD.

By far, one of the best episodes in the adaptation, seeing Endou again and the fake Kaiji remind me of the reasons that I loved the anime/manga.

That fake Kaiji almost got me. Is it just me or Endous voice is a lot different from the main anime?

I almost got baited so hard by fake kaiji. I was about to fanboy so hard but I knew deep down that kaiji didnt meet the teiai team before the actual boat event.

I think it is, I'm rewatching Kaiji with my bro and even Tonegawa sounds somewhat different... Well considering the age cap their voices might have changed a bit

LOL if the Men in Black are inside of the tables, I wonder what happened to the guy inside that one that Kaiji flipped out of kicks xDDDDDDDD

Holy shit, this was hilarious! Just imagining these dudes inside the table will ruin any future Kaiji rewatch. :P Imagine Kaiji's epic motivational speeches, while Saemon sits inside the box playing Playstation 3 or whatever. LOL

The fake Kaiji almost got me, what a great little prank! I love that they reused the classic OST of the main series, too. This anime definitely deserves a higher ranking. People just don't recognize the quality of this great parody!

I did not expect that's how those tables worked. Guess it will be quite funny if I ever re-watch Kaiji. Gotta hand it to them that they know how to effectively use space given what they transformed interior of those tables into though, especially Saemon. What if they need to use toilet though... And that fake kaiji sure was quite a bit of a bait. I was reluctant to believe it, knowing they never showed Kaiji meet anyone like that before ship part, but I was hoping just maybe we see Kaiji for a bit. Albeit unfortunately it was all a trap.

True Endous Voice sounded like an old man and it just caught me off guard

The 'Kaiji style' loser who blew a million yen of his familys savings because horse racing was a hobby of his, a change of pace, a little treat to himself - that's my fav. funny moment this week ;)

Endou is one scum turning guy, like I mean those trainees were far beyond regular scums of society. I wonder what's Endou planning next with his reality check strategy. As for the men in black they sure made best of their situation in those boxes, I would really enjoy that job.

I really thought Watanabe was Kaiji, they really got me there.

Haha yeah! Imagine how not epic that moment would have been if there were muffled screams from inside, or a bruised up man in black came crawling out. :P

Haha, that Kaiji teasing with that random guy surely got me xD

Don't like that they replaced Endou's voice actor, it was really epic and powerful before, now he just sounds like some filthy loan shark.

Still really good episode, as always!

Fake Kaiji was too funny. Especially in the transition of the episode he just said "zawa" blatantly.

Endou stole the show this episode

This show never fails to entertain. The entire time, it was the men in black in those tables in their personalised rooms.
People with low average anime scores don't have high standards. They are just bad at choosing good anime to watch.

I cant believe some people just dislike this spinoff. Its like hating the "making off" of one of your favorites movies. This really adds something positive to Kaiji's world

Fake Kaiji was funny. I didn't expect his answer for going to horse racing though. Lol. Endou was right, they always choose the action that makes the least sense. That's why Kaiji is still surviving in poverty instead of growing as a human.
