Gambling Apocalypse Kaiji
| This dude was literally losing to every other person at gambling when they introduced him in the first episode. He was shown to suck at it, and even portrayed as kinda dumb in the first episode when he accidentally lets it slip that he's the one who jacked that other dude's car. Suddenly, only 3-4 episodes into the show this dude is coming up with genius strategies to get out of seemingly unwinnable situations like he's been doing it for years? How the fuck did Kaiji get so good so fast and without reason? Or do we get to find out he's been smart all his life and he just wanted to lose gambles and rack up debts as a hobby |

| I think that the whole point of Kaiji is that he isn’t a genius. At first he’s naive and gullible, but not stupid. He doesn’t realise the whole threat and he doesn’t know that he can only trust himself. Later on, especially after almost getting sent to a labour camp, he becomes tougher, but not a lot smarter. Even in the last game, where he actually has a smart idea, he still loses in the end because he isn’t a genius. So no, Kaiji doesn’t get super smart, but he isn’t dumb either, you’re just mistaking naivety for stupidity. Any normal person has a good idea from time to time and I’d say that Kaiji has an above average intelligence. Gambling is all about experience, so that adds to it too. |
