BEFORE READING THIS REVIEW MAKE SURE YOU READ MY REVIEW ABOUT TOBAKU DATENROKU KAIJI: https://anilist.co/review/16742 not so spoilerfree WELL DAMN this arc really made me think harder about past decisions Ive made in life. Kaiji: Kazuyahen is yet another great part in the Kaiji series and what makes in so unique is the fact that its just a build up sub arc for One Poker that still manages to be one of Fukumotos best works imo https://i.ur.com/bwEw1Hi.png FUKUMOTO HAS IMPROVED WITH HIS EXPRESSIVE ART STYLE OVERALL So for Fukumoto double spreads ease on him to go crazy with the pen so in this arc he actually choose to make 2 to 3 double spreads for each goddamn chapter which is super awesome and Im not gonna repeat myself again cuz I already mentioned that in my 17 steps review but he blasted this arc in terms of paneling and art JUST LOOK AT THAT https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/920387391167029300/977646882354528287/GamblingOutcastKaijiTheKazuyaArcKaijiPart4Vol.8Ch.71Decided10.png?width=646height=468 https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/920387391167029300/977646725902762104/GamblingOutcastKaijiTheKazuyaArcKaijiPart4Vol.6Ch.54Desperate13.png?width=663height=468 https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/920387391167029300/977646848032505856/GamblingOutcastKaijiTheKazuyaArcKaijiPart4Vol.8Ch.72Scream12.png?width=649height=468 KAZUYAS REFLECTION ON HUMAN NATURE AND HIS EXPERIMENT can we start off by the fact that I WAS RIGHT FKMT REALLY PROJECTS HIMSELF HAS KAZUYA SOMETIMES IN THE MANGE that is so awesome saldly yet again he bashes himself by dissing his own work https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/920387391167029300/977642127645343774/TobakuDatenrokuKaijiKazuyaHenChapter64.jpg?width=325height=468 https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/920387391167029300/981663232890638336/TobakuDatenrokuKaijiKazuyaHenChapter1118.jpg?width=321height=468 While the story progresses we see how Kazuya tries to show the inner evil of a human being and how fear can bend the strongest mentalities in order to prove his point we see him and Kaiji fight. Kaiji is the exact opposite of kazuya a nobody who has no money to his name someone who thinks that a ture bond between people is the strongest material on earth and if its genuine enough itll never break. Kazuyas life trauma and him realizing he was never genuinely been loved is what drives him to do these kind of experiments on a group of people and what makes him such a unique and interesting character so basically Kazuya and Kaiji are yin and yang masterfull. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/920387391167029300/977642514045632582/TobakuDatenrokuKaijiKazuyaHenChapter513.jpg?width=661height=468 https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/920387391167029300/977647216208531456/GamblingOutcastKaijiTheKazuyaArcKaijiPart4Vol.10Ch.93MakingUp14.png?width=316height=468 https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/920387391167029300/977647154288029786/GamblingOutcastKaijiTheKazuyaArcKaijiPart4Vol.10Ch.93MakingUp8.png?width=317height=468 THE FOREIGN TRIO during the arc we meet the 3 protagonist of the arc Mitsuyama Chang and Mario. with each interview with a character we understand how strong their bond is how they share a lot of aspects in life and how they came together as a team. even if theyre not that interesting and even pretty bland if you ask me theyre still a great addition to the series especially in One Poker which Ill cover in a later review. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/920387391167029300/977647033135550464/GamblingOutcastKaijiTheKazuyaArcKaijiPart4Vol.9Ch.88TrueColors1.png?width=329height=468 https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/920387391167029300/977646751139917834/GamblingOutcastKaijiTheKazuyaArcKaijiPart4Vol.6Ch.54Desperate15.png?width=328height=468 CONCLUCION PROS: Hits home for most readersin a good way Shows how fear can cut the strongest bonds between ppl thrilling as always even if the MC wasnt that involved like we used to An actual good learning experience like any kaiji part CONS: Kaijis face structure and teeths were changed for the worst for some reason in some panels more noticeable in pages like this https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/920387391167029300/977647429602123826/GamblingOutcastKaijiTheKazuyaArcKaijiPart4Vol.10Ch.96PartingRegrets17.png?width=634height=468 FKMT turned ma man into a horse bro... : as always if you see a little grammar mistake or something please send me a private message and Ill fix it ASAP since Im not really active on the site my manga site just automatically updates mangas Im reading https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/920387391167029300/977642372370411520/TobakuDatenrokuKaijiKazuyaHenChapter135.jpg?width=321height=467
