Aaa why isn't Kaiji episode 24 subbed yet? ;_; I realize it's not in my right to complain about subbers who are working for free, but it's been over four days now since the episode came out, and normally it takes them two days to sub it. Some person said it's just a filler episode, but a quick skim of the RAW says quite the opposite. This is the climax of a very long arc, the wait is killing me. :fail:

The climax? No my friend. Not yet. Remember the dice game arc? How they built up the tension over a dozen episodes that left you screaming until finally, in one episode, they wrapped the whole thing up gloriously? There's not going to be any climax until ep 26. Ep 25 is gonna be a real nail-biter though.

Oh god I know. When I dived into the subbed episode like an hour after that post, I was all o_o. And then O_O. Now I can say only one thing:

Kaijiiiiiiiii. ;O;
nintendonut888: Hey Baity. I beat the high score for Sanae B hard on the score.dat you sent me. X3
Baity: For a moment, I thought you broke 1.1billion. Upon looking at my score.dat, I can assume that you destroyed the score that is my failed (first!) 1cc attempt on my first day of playing. Congratulations.

Seriously. At this point I'm surprised he hasn't yet grabbed Ichijou by the hair and pounded his face into the Bog until there's no face left. That final twist was just ... "OH COME ON!"

Poor Kaiji can't catch a break.

Fuck yes, I loved that ending. And yeah, 25 episodes, not 26 as originally thought.

T&B final episode here, too.
Spoiler:
Scarf-tan in the background in the final scene. She shows up as a NEXT in season 2 with the ability to create copies of herself, hence why she pops up so often. Besides, she's cute enough to pop up that often anyway.

Ah nevermind.  I just checked and it is under consideration.

Still, judging from what I've heard about the series it seems like it could go for another season, though I should probably watch it first before developing any opinions. :3

EDIT:  In other news, there's gonna be some new thing regarding Madoka, but it seems like it's still being decided as to what they'll actually do.

Yeah, that was one satisfying episode alright. Of course we all know it's not gonna be that easy for Kaiji, as the last five minutes suggested. I have a terrible feeling about how this series is going to end, and I hope I'm wrong. But just to have it on record, I predict that
Spoiler:
during a confrontation between the old man and Kaiji over whether his wins were ill-gotten or not, Kaiji will be presented with the choice of freeing his friends from the underground in exchange for his slavery, or being able to skip out on his own, and Kaiji will of course sacrifice himself for his friends.
I really hope they avoid this or some other easy answer, because this series has been one hell of a ride and I'd love to see it go out with a surprise bang.

This is more than a little caused by my skimming of the Wikipedia article and forgetting the editors of the site have no concept of spoilers, but
Spoiler:
I'm pretty sure that when Hyoudou was talking about "that trash who owes Teiai 700,000,000 yen," he was referring to the one who let that payment escape. Namely, Ichijou. He talked earlier about how he must keep the appearances of fairness up no matter what, so I doubt he'll deny Kaiji the money.

Just finished Kaiji S2 episode 20. I liked the first arc alright, but I'm not really feeling it on this one. There's just way too much stuff that makes me stop and say, "Oh what the fuck? That's bullshit/that would never work/how could he possibly have known that."
Spoiler:
Their plan to get past the flippers
in particular is totally contrived and ridiculous, and depends entirely on mountains of incidental shit that they couldn't possibly have any clue about. It's still a cool show and all, but seriously. We're starting to approach Death Note levels of circumstantial bullshit at this point.

Edit: Also, I got really stoked when I found out
Spoiler:
Endou was going to join the party
, but he's barely said or done a goddamn thing so far.
