A resuffle yeah but that still means that everyone(but Kaiji & co) will end up with way more cards to get rid of than he had before... and damn Kaiji is an altruist idiot, instead of giving them his money, he should just betray those two morons he has with him and take the star Funai offered him.

14 minutes left in the game. If this is a 13-episode series, it means there's 7 episodes left, which calculates to an average of 2mins of game time per episode.

Realistically, how much can happen in two minutes??!


nice avatar there.. [looks like my profile pic ;)]

I think a lot can happen though even in that little time. It's funny though that it seems like Kaiji's plans are guaranteed to go wrong.


Lol I actually think there can be a second game, or maybe games out of the ship. It would be funny and kick-ass.

Kaiji should've taken that star and ditched those 2 fools. Andou is currently sitting at the top of my most hated characters of ALL TIME. Yes, i think he is even worse than the guy from to love ru

All he needs to do is give about 10 rock and then when the cards are redistributed use the rest of his rocks. Funai might call him out on it but he should take the risk.

Fuckin' Funai. At one point, karma gonna strike him down.

But all in all, Kaiji, and mostly his group is in deep shit, because his teamate lack of any ounce of subtlety and strategy. They may betray him. Honor mean nothing when your life is on the line. Though, that may be the flaw in Funai bet. He bet on the fear he pressured on these guy and the fact that he based their alliance on honor, but I'm pretty sure that none of them give a shit about honor.

And here I was thinking it would end here and they'd move on to another game. (I mean, there has to be another game, right? 26 episodes of one game of paper-rock-scissors would be ridiculous.)

The tides of the battle just can't lean on one side, can it? This is getting more intense than ever~

Damn you, Funai. Not only did you manage to gather every remaining player into one group, ya also flipped Kaiji's strategy on its back. I'm curious on how they'll get out of this in 15 minutes.

the desperation... the huge amount of trust that kaiji gave those two, i felt it. how strong he must be, despite being pit against stress for the possibility of losing, to decline funai's offer. he's a smart man, definitely, but his odds are not 100% lucky all the time. there's such a great dose of the reality in a game like this - simple right? yet it's easy to lose, easy to cheat, easy to win, everything is thrown on the table. raw human emotions are more than ever apparent. i don't want to say that this anime is a masterpiece so early into the series even though the word is budging at me, since it is truly awing.

Man, so far I'm loving this show. The art style is very unique, the suspense leaves me on the edge of my seat, and Kaiji is an interesting hero in that he's smart and has that edge of badassery while also being unafraid to show vulnerability. I like how Kaiji's favor is constantly in flux because that's how it is in a poker game. The odds of victory are always wavering and Kaiji's odds are the exact same.

And wow, Funai is such an asshole...and he behaves like a predator. It makes you wonder if he's a "repeater" because he enjoys messing with guys he sees as pathetic losers (and, therefore, easy targets).

These pathetic guys are so annoying, Kaiji is clearly a good guy but sometimes I wish he wasn't and just got out of there already. It's not like they are his friends, he's in this whole situation because of one of them and the other is just a random dude... I still hope they all win but more so I hope Kaiji's kindness won't be his downfall.

In episode 6, it seems that Kaiji's allies did not pray. And our brothers meet a new (old) friend, Funai. And he puts a spoke in the wheel again. And our trio is in a dangerous situation again. Good thing I don't know any spoilers. Hallelujah.

this is bad, hope he thinks of smth again
the fact that he already won but then acted out of goodwill by sharing those 3 stars when he had zero cards now to this is to give a slipper shot to the crooked system that let them to this situation
hope he prevails
