- Akagi’s just like “nope, not putting this back”. He’s prepared to die either way.
- I figured he’d bargain with Washizu for it, but apparently not.
- Honestly, the lung cancer and emphysema aren’t going to give him a very long life regardless.
- Surely bringing out his extra savings is cheating? Unless he’d give Akagi some of his blood.
- Trying to set up elaborate hands is dumb when it means Akagi can play almost anything before then.
- He’s also far too focused on his own hand. No way that’ll backfire.
- Sure enough, Akagi’s talking about how Washizu hasn’t noticed his own luck.
- Hm. Is this where he’ll fail?
- 100cc is better than 400, at least.
- One-track-mind there, Washizu.
- Suddenly, organ music.
- Down to the wire, I guess?
- I think my skepticism is that there’s a whole other game left.
- 80cc is even better than 100, but I doubt that’s going to happen.
- Hm.
- Washizu, you are not a prophet. If you were, you wouldn’t be playing Mahjong to lose all your money.
- Curious to see whether Akagi tries to bargain or not. Hard to tell, with a game left.
This show is really good at tension, even if you don’t understand the details of the game that well.
