Gambling Outcast Kaiji: The 2.4 Billion Escape Arc - Kaiji Part 6

[MangaDex]

 

[KCS]

Literally its been almost 30 chapters of them trying to figure out a way to transport the money. This arc is terrible.

 

[mangapaagal]

So, in this arc, the just run away with 2.4 billion yen? Assuming this is 13 volumes long arc, it is going to be wa slow.

 

[Sir_McClutch]

Please make this be a short arc

 

[kindaguy]

i unironically have liked this arc based on raws

 

[Kanami-chan]

this arc is really slow and boring with no game/gamble. just escape arc.

 

[winniebest]

I actually like this arc. After many years seeing Kaiji seat at the gambling table, I think this arc is refreshing.

 

[LeturLefr]

Kaiji is a good man

 

[siegheil]

Poor Kaiji, even when he wins everyone thinks he's a loser.

 

[LuckyJim]

Even if there isn't any gambling involved, there's a lot of planning and danger in transporting such a large amount of money incognito, which I think keeps the arc interesting.

 

[SacchanHime]

Well that doesn't look shady at all.

 

[siegheil]

Old man has his priorities straight.

 

[DunkChasby]

old dude is a big mood

 

[tathra]

looks like we're finally current on kaiji, as of a month ago.

so can work on translating part 1 start now?

 

[deezenautz]

Feels pretty to good to finally be caught up

 

[ToastmanJack]

It's not caught up, it's like 7 chapters behind, the raws for 295 came out just recently

 

[deezenautz]

Ahh, my bad~

 

[Wockia]

Part One is probably not gonna get translated considering there's already an English translation you can buy.

 

[deezenautz]

Even then, the anime does a good job of telling what happens. I actually finally found out about what happens to Kaiji in part 1 thanks to it.

 

[SemperSolus]

I like this arc. Much more than the gambling ones.
It's hard to claim any skill from winning games of pure chance. The manga usually stooped to devices like "cheating", "uncovering how the enemy cheats", or, most commonly "Kaiji's indomitable gambler's spirit" (whatever that is).
All the victories in this arc are purely attributable to Kaiji and his friends.

... Well, except for

Spoiler

that extremely fortuitous encounter with an RV salesman who takes cash. Like, what the hell.
