best sport manga ever
It's as overlong as his nose. At this point the manga just has to end, so that we can get Akagi S2 and then a Ten anime.
Oh, who am I kidding? First of all, Akagi is Kindai Mahjong's main cash cow and will never end. Secondly, the post-anime Akagi drags on so much that the 4 cours it would last for would be horrifically boring. There's no hope for more anime in the Akagi continuum.
It's great, I marathoned all 170 chapters in a few days. At the same time I admit it's really dragged out. We'll never see the conclusion at this rate.
>>133732112
days?
That I don't know what he's thinking.
>>133732978
Did I stutter?
Akagi is good. Not as good as Buraiden Gai, but hey.
Good anime
Great gateway into Chinese dominoes
>>133732112
>really dragged out
Is there any manga arc at all that's gone on as long as Akagi vs Washizu?
Akagi is good but Kaiji, Kursawa, and Ten are much better.
>>133735564
>Kurosawa
No.
Which will happen first, Akagi beating Washizu or Guts and his party getting off the boat?
>>133735996
They both are winding down but probably Guts considering they're currently drawing two tiles per chapter
Crybaby
Why did this Live Action happen when the damned Washizu arc isn't even done yet?
Who the fuck is this 'Ron' guy they're always talking about? We never see him anywhere.
>>133736992
Is this even any good? Akagi looks like a fuccboi and Washizu doesn't even have long hair.
>>133737218
What do you think?
Most live action adaptations, even by the Japanese, are fucking shit.
>>133737183
He is Tsumo's cousin. Did you even watch the anime?
>>133737183
he is holding the camera, they call for him when they want to show up on camera
Very boring story.
Incredibly horrible character design.

Very boring post.
Incredibly horrible argument setup.
>>133737462
Guess you're the butthurt fanboy.
Look at the title of the thread.
>Thoughts on Akagi?
And I gave my thoughts. It didn't ask for an explanation did it?
>Very boring Story.
For me it is, because as the topic asks for my thoughts, I gave them. Most people don't care about Mahjong and those who do wouldn't like it to be dragged on for this long.
>Incredibly horrible character design.
Which is true. The art is horrid. Doesn't mean I want it to be "modern", "moe" or whatever. It simply is unbearable.
>>133737541
And I gave you my thoughts on your post. Congrats on not liking thing.
>>133737541
The art is extremely charming and Fukumoto is great at expressing emotions. It's not filled with extreme detail like Berserk of Vinland Saga but he has his own style and is very loved for it. A pioneer. Akagi is a great manga filled with suspense but sure, it does help knowing some things about mahjong.
>>133737630
I don't care. Seems like you simply can't take any thoughts that don't revolve around praising Akagi. Perhaps OP should just rename the thread next time
>Positive thoughts on Akagi only
Which I'm fine with. The art is so bad it makes me laugh, and that's a good thing.
>>133737697
To each their own then.
The art just interferes with the dialogue, gets in the way of the text and has very exaggerated expressions on characters.
>>133737541
You're probably a bad troll, but you're also right. This isn't a circlejerk thread so bashing the show is just as welcome as praising it.
I agree with most of the general positive comments. The anime is a masterpiece, and it effectively intensifies the manga's story and gives a much more satisfying end than the manga (which has no end, currently). It's a timeless classic, and hasn't aged much in the 10 years since it came out.
>>133737748
Honestly, I was messing with you. No need to get combative.
>>133736992
They should have at least tried to imitate the noses
I bet that would have helped

That's exactly what Kaiji's VA did.

Kaiji was the least offensive out of all the cosplayers on that show. Anyway, I'd buy that man a bear, he seems like an alright guy.
When you play mahjong, don't ever be this stupid.

Post that Mr. Zen bullshit
The mahjong was pretty boring for me, I couldn't even watch Saki when Saki makes it really easy to follow the drama without knowing anything about the game and gives them magic and shit.
So I read Kurosawa, I loved that, I didn't understand that it was pretty much just an extension of the final 30 chapters of Ten which I only read because anon raved about it.
Pretty much the final 30 chapters of Ten is every fukumoto work ever without the mahjong and I suggest anyone that doesn't like the mahjong read it.
I still don't understand mahjong.
>>133739559
>reading just the ending to Ten
Nigger, it's retarded to read the ending without having read through the manga. The ending was much more powerful after the main story.
Does /a/ still do tournaments?
>>133739630
Yeah, I know. But I couldn't give enough of a fuck at the time and have no desire to read more fukumoto works after that.
Washizu did nothing wrong.
I hope Washizu sama doesn't die.
I can't believe I lived long enough to see One Poker start up.
>>133739856
What is the game about?
>>133739941
Mahjong.
Hah
Wait.. what am i supposed to watch first? akagi or kaiji?
>>133740887
Learn mahjong
Read Ten
Watch Akagi
Watch Kaiji
>>133739806
I dont know.
Killing young people cause you are an old fart its not very righteous.Even himself stated that he doesnt have much time left and told the Enma that he was comng back soon.
chinese rules mahjong>japanese rules mahjong
>>133741196
Chinese mahjong is shit, barely any thinking involved. Riichi, furiten, and dora add a lot of strategy to the game.
>>133741196
Not liking glorious riichi. You probably play four card poker if you even go to casinos.
>>133741355
>four card poker
Disgusting.
>>133741196
Its okay anon.
I played Chinese too cause I couldnt into yaku.
I still play it sometimes.
Admit that Akagi is a gary stu and that majong is really boring to watch.
>>133742471
Akagi is a gary stu and mahjong is really boring to watch.
>>133742471
Akagi is boring to watch and mahjong is a gary stu
>>133742471
Akagi is a Gary Stu and Mahjong is confusing
The only notable thing I saved from when I blew through Akagi.
>>133742471
Akagi is overrated and Washizu is the greatest to watch.
>>133731182
been in the same fucking battle with washizu for over 10 years now
>a chapter for each piece being drawn
FUCK
>>133742833
>A door has opened
I've read every single chapter of Akagi, and I still don't know shit about Mahjong. It's like poker, and you can guess what other people have in their hands from what they discard. That's all I know.
>>133742871
I like Akagi because he bullies Washizu.
>>133742990
You should read up on the rules, play on tenhou for about a year till you have a general feel for it, then reread/rewatch Akagi. It's a rare instance where you can watch a great show twice and get a newfound appreciation of it the second time.
>>133743143
I'd rather spend that time learning Japanese.
>>133742878
>over 10
Much closer to 20 years actually. If you count from the beginning of the arc we're almost at 19
>3:0
Why did I keep that tile. I even knew it was an obvious chin istu. I should just kill myself.
>>133742833
SITTING IN HIS PATH
I can't remember the last time I actually made a Chin Itsu. I know I've had at least 2 yakuman since then, so it must have been a couple months.
Still a 147 pin wait was nice.
>>133744342
>Kek
Why is every person who plays mahjong an /s4s/ faggot or a trip? Some are both, but still.
>>133744452
Does "kek" trigger you, poor anon?
>tfw I'm too retarded to play mahjong properly
Akagi looks 20 years old at the very least. I can't believe he's supposed to be 13.
>>133744617
I'm sorry you don't understand how someone could be bothered by a person shitting in their front lawn. You should see a doctor about that aspergers.
>>133744734
He's only 13 in the beginning. I believe he's 18 against Washizu.
>>133744452
I already have HA and Neat in my Tenhou folder or I would have used them. I was just looking for a fast name indicating smug laughter.

If that's how you rationalize it, so be it.

>>133744342
I started playing recently and I usually manage a chin itsu every 1-3 games. For yakuman I've had one counted yakuman and managed a kokushi tenpai from a starting hand of 7 of 6 types (naturally dealt into a pinfu).

8000
>tfw still can't figure out how to read waits from discards
>>133745432
If you go for them they aren't particularly hard. The problem is 3/4 (actually 25/34) of all your draws are completely useless and you will be dealing a lot of dangerous tiles (especially when you are in a different suit than the dora) until you finally make your hand.
In this case it's south 4 and he can't end up last unless he deals haneman or higher, so he can be a little more reckless.
>>133747922
To add to this, unless you pick up an extra han somewhere (toitoi, red 5, dora, or ittsuu) or keep the whole hand closed, all this danger only gets you to mangan.
>>133747546
By the time it's helpful for you to try doing so, you'll probably be able to do it to an extent. Until then, just stick to the basics.
>>133737257
this time is quite good. washizu did a really good job, while akagi tries to be a little too edgy it's still really good, at least for a Drama
>>133747998
I think I can gan to 5 dora to open a pon hand. But that would mean a double gon pon.I have no idea what any of this means.
>>133739774
You pretend to know what every Fukumoto work is like after reading a small percentage of a story you had no interest in, and then make an empty recommendation. No thank you.
He has a big nose.
>>133750331

Washizu was perfect, if only they got the right actor for Akagi.
