Non-Spoiler review

While the choice to kick off our review segment with the fan and critic favorite Death Note may come across as clichéd and dated, it dawned upon us to pick and start with the classics of anime that recent fans and followers may have not necessarily picked upon yet. Which is ironic, as this is most likely one of the select few that has been embarked quite often as a rite of passage for many converts who have continued to tread this medium since.

Synopsis for: Shiki (Summer 2010)

Gyakkyou Burai Kaiji - Collection

Synopsis for: Gyakkyou Burai Kaiji - Ultimate Survivor | Gambling Apocalypse Kaiji | Gyakkyō Burai Kaiji | Ultimate Survivor Kaiji (Fall 2007)

Once the two get talking, it seems that the visitor (Calling himself Endou) is a debt collector. The reason for his visit is an unpaid loan which kaiji had previously co-signed for a work-mate (Furuhata Takeshi). The original loan was 30000 yen and once Takeshi had disappeared, the loan then fell on Kaiji.

Once on the boat the debtors would then have to gamble with loaned money, which would end with a few winning, and others getting into deeper debt and having to work to pay of their debts. After some coercing kaiji accepts a position on the boat, in order to clear himself and make a bit of money as well... Continue reading Gyakkyou Burai Kaiji | Kaiji – Collection [576p – 720p] →
