ReMightyRon said:Gabbar101 said:So just finished episode 3 and I don't get onething, in episode 2 what if kaiji was not backstabed and draw all the card, then he would have 3 stars with 0 card and would be safe .
But how would that help kaiji at all, he would still have his old debt to pay plus the intrest amount for the time he was on ship, so why did kaiji aggre for that.
So my doubt is how was kaiji albe to repay his loan if he would have draw all the card, does coming to ship and surviving means that the old debt is clear?
And one more question why did the other guy in episode 2 borrowed 10 million yen, as his plan form the starting was to decive someone, so wouldn't it be better if he would have just borrowed 1 million as he would have to pay less intrest on it.
Please answer this question
Kaiji's primary goal is to repay his debt of 3,850,000 yen, which includes the original loan of 300,000 yen and the accrued interest. By participating in the game on the ship, Kaiji is given a chance to win more money, potentially paying off his debt.
If Kaiji had drawn all the cards and ended up with 3 stars and 0 cards, he would indeed have avoided the immediate consequences of the game. However, as you pointed out, he would still have his old debt to pay, plus the interest accrued during his time on the ship.
In the context of the story, it's likely that Kaiji's debt is not just a financial burden but also a personal one. By participating in the game, Kaiji is trying to find a way to pay off his debt and potentially gain a new opportunity. If he had drawn all the cards and survived, it's possible that the debt would still be a significant burden, but he might have gained some leverage or opportunities to pay it off.
It's not explicitly stated in the anime that coming to the ship and surviving would automatically clear Kaiji's old debt. In fact, the anime suggests that the debt is still a significant burden for Kaiji, even after he participates in the game.
Regarding the character who borrowed 10 million yen, it's possible that he did so to make his plan more convincing or to gain access to certain opportunities. By borrowing a larger amount, he may have been able to gain the trust of others or create a more convincing facade.
However, as you pointed out, borrowing 10 million yen would indeed result in higher interest payments, which might not be ideal for someone planning to deceive others. It's possible that the character was willing to take on the higher interest payments in order to achieve his goals or that he had a plan to pay off the debt quickly.
It's difficult to say for certain why he borrowed 10 million yen. However, it's clear that the character's actions are driven by his own interests and goals, and he may be willing to take risks or make sacrifices in order to achieve them.
