Both shows focus on the thrilling and rough world of gambling. Competition and mental strength are big themes in these series. The main characters have comparable backstories. Kaiji and Joe both start from the bottom and work their way up in their respective industries. They are incredibly perseverant and take on all challenges, no matter how grave the consequences may be. Additionally, Megalo Box involves match-fixing schemes that are similar to the cheating in Kaiji's gambling scene. This illustrates how injustice is a motif in these sensational, but violent anime.
