| It seems this is the real challenge for him so it might go on till the last episode. This guy reminds me of the last challenger Kaiji was facing. |

| Kinda getting sick of this arc.. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Washizu Mahjong is the culmination of everything this series has been building towards. It embodies the totality of the Mahjong underworld. It is the true essence of Mahjong - nay, gambling as a whole.  |

DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Really, dis gunna be till ep 26? ^ +1 I'm really hoping not, but I don't see it ending any other way. I'm actually quite impressed at how the writers and producers have been able to stretch out one little deadly game of Mahjong. |
 |
| Well, it's probably a bit silly to offer predictions on a series that has been out for years but I bet that Akagi probably has blood to spare since he likely got a blood transfusion when he stopped at that clinic prior to the match. That just seems like a very Akagi thing to do. Anyway, I am enjoying this arc quite a bit so I wouldn't mind if it lasts until the end of the series. |
| All this blood, I'm getting thirsty. |
 |
| I wish they wouldn't keep wasting half of every episode on exposition about the blood. Nothing new, interesting or truly relevant is being said so its as much of a waste of time as transformations in a mahou shojo series, only much much longer :/ |
| I think I've lost track of how many times Ohgi emphasizes Akagi's genius and character. It's like every single time he gets a chance to talk, he starts going on again about how no one can understand Akagi and how he's in a different realm of thinking n' shit. We get it, Ohgi-san. Please stop repeating yourself. |
 |
| Akagi is really a gambler with no fear of mortal danger. I can't seem to understand his way of spending his own blood, though. |

| I'm not a fan of this arc to be honest. Sure, it has some nice elements (mainly the transparent tiles and other factors), but the villain is really lame, hasn't shown any particular cunning so far, and the arc is getting stretched out without even giving us substantive content. We've gotten Ohgi repeating how genius Akagi is over and over, exposition about the blood and money, and some actual gaming - but not entertaining segments as much as earlier arcs. Whatever, I imagine some of the episodes here will be worth it, but I don't think I'll end up liking it much as a whole. |
| I doubt it would last until the last episode since they could speed up the game a bit like they did towards the end of this episode. This arc isn't really as interesting as the previous ones so it would be a shame to have the rest of the episodes be focused on it. I'm still waiting on Akagi to call him retarded which has been pretty amusing when he did it to his previous opponents lol. |
 |
| I figured he wasn't going to get the blood transfusion. |
 |
| He uses his life as a bait and puts himself in death's door. Damn Akagi's nuts. He'll do everything to kill Washizu and thats something you appreciate |
| If he says he's going to kill you, Akagi means it even if he'll have to stand mere inches before death's edge. No matter how impossible or hopeless the situation is, he always finds a way to get through it right from the get go. His hesitation was just his instincts talking and I'm pretty sure he got a counter to their plan even if the Xia's with them because he really doesn't look like he gives a damn. |
 |
| Man when death is near and clear we really are at our peak of our existance, akagi is not wrong. |
 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. |
