I think there's something wrong there. Felt like that Sakazaki isn't trustworthy enough.

Anyway, we got to know more info about the Bog. All we need now is the application..

BTW, the rating increased. From 8.28 to 8.43. :D

this episode was alright. Kaiji partner for this gamble didnt seem right to me at first but i guess no harm is done since their using his cash.

Well can't wait to see how this arc turns out.

why do i have a feeling kaiji will get screwed really bad here. I feel like maby sakazaki will win but then kaiji will get left out of all the money. I also feel like maby sanazaki is working for somone else. im probably wrong.

well we can know 1 thing for certain that if the story is going to continue, he has to make some amount of money or Kaiji's going to get stuck working down in the teitai mines for the rest of the season by common logic.
If your going to complain that Yu-Gi-Oh! Mangas are on the top NY times manga best sellers, you must not realize how popular Card games are(as well as the fact that you get a free card).

Sakazaki is not trying to screw Kaiji over. Guy is waaaaay to desperate for that.
The best people to trust are the people who've lost it all already.
I'm pretty sure Kaiji is a vital part of his plan and since he's in on the trick now Kaiji has all the power to F him back should the need arise.

true. Anyway so im guessing we know who the he she is in the beginning and the ending of the show. Sakazaki's daughter right. Perhaps Kaiji is forced to go out with her or marry her for the money?? lol hhahahahah

Very nice. I like how things are progressing.

Like most people here, I also expect Sakazaki is up to something. To me it seemed like he was using Kaiji/his money but we'll see.

Also suspicious of Sakazaki, but not too much to the extent to think he's up to something, as he just promised every guy gambling there half a million so him not giving Kaiji his share would be ridiculous, lol..

Can someone explain the time he has out of the mine? I thought it was 48 hours then they're talking about how the perfect time to do it will be 6 days later? What am I missing?

Ok so let me get this straight with what we *seem* to know so far. Kaiji has 2 objects a object in a bag or cloth that was handed to him and a beer or empty beer now. He went into the bathroom to do something. The something is perhaps the bag i thought based on how it looked was maby a bomb or some kind of distraction. then he would throw the beer can at the bog to make the third tray out of tune. The other thing is perhaps he put whatever that object was in the beer can to perhaps make it heavier to throw? im not shure.

You're thinking way too much about this. Remember what they said about this being a simple plan. Of course it can't be a bomb or something to hit the machine with. If it was something that obvious, the guards would kick their ass or possibly kill them since they are Teiai. Its something that is less noticeable.

Heres a hint:

I have a feeling that the part that they mentioned about how the house puts in 300 million if someone wins will come into play. Remember, as it is right now, he'd just be winning other peoples' money, but if he goes for a second win after they win the first time, he can actually take a personal shot at them. It's either that, or this guy screws him and takes 100% of the money, since he really has no guarantee he'll cough up 10%, so Kaiji is forced to play for the house's 300 million himself with what remaining money he has. That's what I figure anyway.

Ok, so even Kaiji thinks shes a dog face. He's probably forced into the relationship. That is, if does actually end up with her. And im trusting sakazaki less and less. I have a feeling he's going to lose all 50 mill.

For fucksake theres no way in hell theyre winning that shit. and even if they do Sakazaki will take it all. Or hes part of Hyoudo's gang. either way its simply impossible for kaiji to win huge two arcs in a row.

And I thought the underground only allowed a 1day vacation for 500,000; or did Kaiji really pay all his 3million to get a week vacation?...

What's the trick!?! I WANNA KNOW.
I don't get what the plan is. Kaiji has an object on him, but how can he traffic the game without playing it? Well, I don't understand shit in that machine anyway.

That dude is scary. Oh sorry, that's his daughter. But hey, if Sakazaki is legit then I'll end up liking the guy. He's resourceful. Not sure why Kaiji had a problem with the illegally obtained money, everything he's done up to this point has been in the shadows of society anyway. Maybe it has more to do with how it was taken. Looking forward to how they plan to beat the Bog.

so we finally know who that ''beautiful'' chick at the begining is lol...

i hope kaiji won't be forced to marry his daughter to get a share if he wins, lol

also was i the only one that thought kaiji is gonna play the machine? otherwise what's the point of him being there...maybe i missed something due to the fact i'm marathoning this like crazy and not sleeping, lol

So that's where the creepy smiley zawa girl is from. The whole reveal was hilarious, from Kaiji's reaction to Sakazaki's fanatical father nya face xD Busa...Busa wtf lmao

Everything in this arc is so high stake all of a sudden. I hope their "simple" plan works haha. A supermagnet could've been under that wrap for all I know haha

As Han Solo usually says, "I have a really bad feeling about this."

Anyone else get the feeling that Sakazaki is a plant to frame Kaiji?

I don't think Kaiji has all the info and is about to get screwed.....again.

Sakazaki is an example of the true destructive person because of gambling, I hope he will fail lol. But yeah "For a gambler, to love and win is the best thing, to love and lose is the next best". Even Kaiji lost to Hyodo was because he went too far.

This is gonna completely fail. Theres so many signs that this guy cant be trusted. And Kaiji has already learned well that he should think for himself and anytime he works with someone on their plan it ends badly for him.

Unless its Kaiji's plan it's most likely gonna fail.

Also his daughter really isn’t all that good looking, she also appears in the ED it seems
