Kaiji episode 9 will go down in history as one of the most satisfying, cathartic episodes ever seen by man

I should probably start watching then, eh…

As for the Side Room of Nakedness, I'd quite happily erase it from my mind! I'm interested to see what happens when Kaiji gets off the Espoir - those mafia guys don't seem to have finished with him just yet. @IKnight: I was grinning from ear to ear at that point. the word “TOLD!” simply doesn’t do it justice.

If not, you must ;) I could have done without seeing the room of naked men, but rest assured it will be parodied. Have you watched Akagi yet? If not, you must ;)

I also thought it was interesting how Furuhata only got the bitchslap, instead of the Kaiji kung fu. Also HUERRGH!

Also HUERRGH!

And the violence meted out to Andou and Furuhata is perfectly tuned too.
