I took a gamble watching this show, and it sure as hell paid off.

I'm an indecisive person. Because of this, it's quite hard for me to decide what anime/manga I want to start. So, what I do is, I put a bunch of anime/manga on a wheel, spin it, and whatever…

Read full review on AniList →Kaiji's 2nd season is almost as tense as its 1st, but the final arc's slow pace drags it out a bit.
In some ways Kaiji's 2nd season could be seen as a bit of a disappointment, with far less focus on the crazy gambling games that push each side's strategic and psychological limits to the max, and more of a character driven story with the focus being on pushing the luck in your favour.

~~~___THIS REVIEW CONTAINERS SPOILERS___~~~

# __Starting to watch Kaiji-Against All Rules__
As I have watched the Season 1 and what words Kaiji said at the end, it was obvious that anyone who watches S1 complete will have to see the Season 2. Right from the start, here the S2 starting episode sets up the sequence of events which will go forwa…
