| Awesome episode, Kaiji is just the most human main character you will ever see. Am I the only person that was expecting his supervisor's laugh to sound like this: "yohohohohohoho" |
| YEAHHH KAIJI'S BACK!!!!!! |

OptimisticPrime said:  MOE MOE KYUN. . HNNNNNGGGG!!!!! First ep and I'm in love with the season xD Can't wait to see the next ep!!!! |
| Kaiji... INTHESHOWER IS BACK! Yay. I can't compare the anime to the manga and I doubt I'll start reading the manga now or ever, but I liked the first ep. Duh it was rushed... We need action, not story! |
   |
| The atmosphere, the tension, the pointy noses is BACK <3 But watching it on weekly basis is such a torture! At least, every week i have something to look forward to ;) |
 |
| KAIJI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
 |
| ZAWA ZAWA BABY Interesting start, it's easy to see how Kaiji ended up the way he is, despite how he seems so determined. Goes from "I WILL SPEND NO MONEY I AM THE BUDDHA" to "MOAR FOOD MOAR FOOD OM NOM NOM NOM" in like 3 minutes. Guess I can't criticize too much, my self control is also horrible. |
JohnShepard said: Here we go again, another psychological anime where eating ships is epic. Holy shit, where was I when they were eating ships? |
| gah wtf, he KNOWS what's gonna happen and he still falls for it D: srsly wtf! goddam weak SOB! |
| "Don't believe in the you that believes in me. Don't believe in the me that believes in you. Believe in the you that believes in yourself." |
I just noticed Kaiji's '21' tattoo' is missing :/ see this image from the anime  compared to this same part in the manga: http://www.mangafox.com/manga/kaiji/v14/c004/6.html |
| This is the best anime of the season for me. I should probably start reading the manga too. |
| God the ED was awesome xD |
 |
| It's good to see Kaiji's manly tears again. |
 |
| LOL, Kaiji went back to being a bum, gambling away every penny he gets... This season looks very interesting....hopefully it's just as good or BETTER than the first season. |
| Intense first episode! I hate beer and now I feel like having one, lol Wtf at the ED |
 |
| Moe as fuck. 5/5 just for the ED. :P The episode itself was a bit on the rushed side, I doubt they'll be able to keep this up. |
| That ED will now be a part of my nightmares. Thanks, Kaiji! |
| Well damn, Kaiji's life sure isn't going well from the beginning there. He has been tricked, go figure. >Kaiji goes wild! |
 |
| Oh yea I remembered the reason why I put Kaiji on my plan to watch in the first place. Fear, and loathing in las vegas performs the opening. Chase the light is awesome. And Kaiji give that dog face in the ending to Aoki from Hajime no Ippo. |
| That ED gave me the weirdest boner... Pretty good start! I just hope he isn't stuck in that shithole for 26 episodes or this anime is gonna get stale fast... |

| Nice setup for the second season. |
| That fucking ED... |
 |
| sigh, Kaiji just keeps trapping himself with all that spending. |
 |
| Dear god, that girl in the ED, she's terrifying. Kaiji, you're so stupid. These are such obvious trap, that even a blind man would see them. You should know better... At least, since he's good at crafting plan, he can maybe scam the scammer with this new game. |
| «Time is passing so quickly. Right now, I feel like complaining to Einstein. Whether time is slow or fast depends on perception. Relativity theory is so romantic. And so sad.» - Kurisu Makise a.k.a. The Zombie |
| This is my shit |
| Setup for this season makes me think I'll like this better than S1. |
| Dam Kaiji, you're pretty bad at resisting temptations lol. To be fair, the food looked pretty appetizing and they're fed crap everyday so it would be understandable for him to buy a pack once in a while. Whoever, the beer is just a luxury and then he goes on wasting more money on snacks as well >_> |
 |
| A little disappointed in how Kaiji handled himself. In season one's first arc he learned to decide things for himself, yet now he is being tempted so easily. |
| this is just such an accurate depiction of being poor lol 5/5 and a great start to the 2nd season! |
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) |
| All that debt made him so careless in his budget... Seeing Kaiji being so easily played into the Foreman's hands after all he went through made me sad. To be fair, you'd like to experience something good for once after a lot of misfortune but you can tend to get carried away. The setting is interesting and there's a new kind of Zawa Zawa. The girl in the ED was both funny and creepy and the song used got the vibe from S1's OP lol "All this energy I spent jacking off." Lmao one of the best lyrics I've seen. He's presented with another opportunity to gamble so I think that he'll hopefully start getting good again later. |
 |
| Really lame start of the second season. Kaiji is a gambling addict now. He has to work all day long and he can't even control his needs, lame. Lol, wtf is with that "girl" from the ending, that's too ugly and gross. |
 |
| It seems like Kaiji has become dumber since the first season. Great episode regardless |
| Kaiji you idiot,you just shouldn't have started...talking from experience. To keep a diet is easy,but to limit yourself with a certain amount is tough as fuck xD |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Wow, awesome setup for the arc! |
 |
| Is it just me pr there are no female characters in this show I just realized it after watching all of season 1! Kaiji sure is fucked up but that's the only way to get out of the hole is the dark realm of gambling. |
| Oh Kaiji you sucker....how could you fall for this yet again?! |
 |
| The outro is fascinating. And now kaiji is ended up in underworld as a worker! I can see it would be interesting soon |
| Great start to this one, Kaiji can't possibly go lower lmao |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Ok that is a very clever system. Keeping them there only to spend more so they never leave. Very clever. |
| Yuritopia FTW!!!!!!!!! BANZAI TO YURI !!!!!!!!!!!! |
| Kaiji deserves all this pain lets be honest fam. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Oh come on KAIJI!!! I thought he improved! Instead, this is a massive downgrade. He's still childishly naive and easily manipulated. Not to mention how easily his desires control his actions. Truly pathetic... |
