My manly trinity does, indeed, as, Capt ZETTA said, include 20th century boys. Jojo's Bizzare Adventure, Kaiji, and 20th Century Boys is for winners. (So are Berserk and HnK, so you win, too.)
In Strongest Man Kurosawa (by the guy who made Kaiji), the main character gets asked if he's a virgin by his colleagues at one point. And zawa zawa appeared. It made me laugh.
Zawa - ざわ‥ A japanese onomatopoeia meaning uneasy atmosphere. Used a lot by Nobuyuki Fukumoto, a japanese manga artist.
Kaiji has serious debts to the yakuza and if he loses this gamble a device on his ear will drill through his eardrum and even further, possibly causing death. ZAWA ZAWA ZAWA...
I love this anime and am loving the 2nd season - i had a total mood swing from having a crap week and feeling awesome when i heard there was gonna be a 2nd season of Kaiji!
Its not generic like the rest - i wonder if hes gonna be owned at the end this time ;) oh man cant wait for next episode ;_;
The producers didn't want us to OD on too much Cryji so they hid the stash of MANLY TEARS from us for three long years. Well, guys? The wait is finally over.
Kaiji, despite its incredibly unique art style, was one of the most realistic anime I have ever seen. The whole show focuses on Kaiji's destitution and the toll it's taking on his psychological health. He goes to great risks and lengths just to try and have a better life, even almost gambling himself to death.
Love the theme. Quite an ironic catchphrase by the way, given the kind of series Kaiji is, depicting tons and tons of people deprived of a normal lifestyle and intoxicated by money, be it the underdogs or ''the Kings''. Everyone is in a way or another a slave of money, hence the effective sarcasm. But looking at it the other way around it might also be interpreted as a ray of hope in Kaiji and the others' lives, to overcome their obstacles by whatever means.
@horokeusensei they are but it got delayed cause the kaiji manga got delayed (for reason i dont know why mind you) but now that the hitas on the manga is gone season 2 is in prodution again
@horokeusensei yes thats part 1 of the manga series, the anime only covers series 1, the manga is now in series 3(the part that got delayed) and since part 2 of the manga was pretty short season 2 was most likey gonna cover both parts 2 & 3, so since part 3 was delayed so was the production of season, well thats what i assume to be the reason of the delay
@ichigo11234 aa interesting that definitely would make sense
i was really under the impression that it might be just because its harder to market things like kaiji (in comparison to things that sell well in terms of figurines and notebooks and what not)
@Kriegdrache Funny fact: At one point, Kaiji was voted in a national Japanese poll as the #1 Female Moe Show (look it up at your own discretion). That means those are some sexy, SEXY tears.
@Kriegdrache That's what makes Kaiji so much better than most other protagonists. He has actual emotions. Plus the fact that he actually loses is one of my favourite parts. It makes it interesting to read. I don't care about Naruto or Ichigo fighting because I know they'll always pull something out of his ass and win. You never know if Kaiji will win or lose.
@DjCyara Akagi was great, but Kaiji was so much more psychological, had more action and a better plot. Then again, Kaiji's my favourite series of all time so I'm probably biased.
@rthompson39 nah, it's just about preferrence. do you like badass MCs or MCs you can identify with in certain situations. It's like preferring conan over NHK while liking both.

Love the theme. Quite an ironic catchphrase by the way, given the kind of series Kaiji is, depicting tons and tons of people deprived of a normal lifestyle and intoxicated by money, be it the underdogs or ''the Kings''. Everyone is in a way or another a slave of money, hence the effective sarcasm. But looking at it the other way around it might also be interpreted as a ray of hope in Kaiji and the others' lives, to overcome their obstacles by whatever means.
