Tonegawaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

people who hate GSG should stop bitching about how much they hate it. its proper annoying.

@5171:

They 'should' but they won't. =3

this is not a friendly place for GSG people :-P

SCCCCCCCCCRRRRRRRRREEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!

:3

>5171

Saying something is "proper annoying" is "fucking gay."

since this is hyperspace - it wouldn't hurt. I wouldn't feel

a thing.

ain't that the truth!

??? wonder what 5172 said that got deleted?

There are times when you'll need someone, I will be by your side.

There is a light that shines, special for you and me...

You make...me blush! >_<

~~(now where's mah Triella fix >< )~~

noooo!!!! Serious disfigurement, and scary ass stuff lays ahead for anyone who hasn't watched this yet!

But on to the real reason for my comment...

Triad is awesome, and I love their Kaiji subs. I also just finished Akagi, albeit very very late, as I hadn't heard about it until now, and I very much liked it. Strangely, though, I actually knew how to play Mahjohng before I started watching.

...I wish I could sage those fucking comments.

"wonder what 5172 said that got deleted?"

Spambot.

>>5191

Up your ass. Start digging.

I am watching Akagi, AGAIN. DAMN YOU!

But, It's still as good as 3 months ago!

>5193

Akagi is better and better everytime you watch it. I'm on episode 25 right now. Heehee Washizu is so lulzy in this episode. "RON RON RON RON RON ROOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!"

Fuck it

*downloads Akagi*

This better be good damnit...

Me too. I always thought Mahjong looked kinda stupid from what little I knew about it. Then I tried Akagi because I liked Kaiji, and I was hooked as soon as the cool music started playing :)

Akagi is my favorite anime. Makes me want to play Mahjong but I can't be fucked learning the 10 billion scoring rules.

eg.

If you are the east and you don't call on any other players tiles and you have the chuns and the time is 12:27 and you just ate some cake then you get 18000 points..

Mahjong isn't that hard to understand, don't be ridiculous. Here's a pretty useful guide for the common newfag: http://guide.riichi.nl/

You can play here http://tenhou.net/0/?L7447

It's not hard once you get the hang of it, but the guy does have a good point about the scoring hands. There are a million fucking different hands, and they each have their own name and score calculation . . . or so it seems to someone who wasn't raised in a mahjong parlor.

Thank God there's electronic mahjong, to help us learn some of the shit.

> 5198

Thanks for the links. That is by far the best explanation of mahjong I have seen. The other ones I had looked at were like 30 pages or so and my brain shuts down upon looking at them.

I've been playing a bit online. It's good practice. The time limit is harsh, but I'm definitely improving.

The thing I find hard is, its not enough to just know the hands, you have to be able to quickly decide which of the many hands you want to go for, or even decide how to keep as many good hands as possible open. I suppose learning bit by bit is the key eh.

>5201

Practice makes perfect. There may be a bit more to learn with mahjong than other games/sports, but if you keep doing it, you'll get the hang out of it.

But it really makes sense why Akagi is a demon, doesn't it?

there are several kinds of Mahjong as I heard

Mahjong is easy.

There are indeed many variation of Mah Jong, BUT!

For all Mahjong, it's almost 90% the same.

Although the 10% is just a little rules difference. Although it's very important to know, but once you know how to play Mahjong, you should be able to play all variation with ease.

Also, scoring system is very easy, just learn the basic, the special hands needs to be memorized and they are also easy to remember.

Dying....Slowly...

Thanks for not releasing Kaiji. :D

*Flaming Uppercuts No. 5206*

Gunsl...

Oh, nevermind.

T_T

>5207

Shhhh. Inverse Psychology!

Maybe they'll release it just to piss me off. *cross fingers*

o_O

O_o

:3

>5209

Inverse psychology?

Don't you mean "reverse"?

They both mean the same thing.

What would Kaiji have done if he picked the eye poking device instead?

Nobody in their right mind would pick the eye poker though.

Maybe Akagi would. Haha.

Hypothetically speaking, if Kaiji chose the eye poker... he'd probably faint from the stress of a sharp pointy thing coming right at his eye.

I understand how they got the ear-device clamped onto kaiji's ear but I doubt they'd be able to clamp anything down over his eye (wtf would they clamp it to? his eyeball?)

it's probably just like an eyepatch

ATTACH IT TO THE BONE

=3

Damn I'm sick because I haven't had my weekly dose of Kaiji. I'm sure that I will get better when there's a news post about Kaiji 21 released :P Well it's time to take my medicine and go back to bed... maybe some hot tea before that but well, see ya.

Last night I saw a dream that Triad releasen a "surprise" torrent (go figure). They didn't tell straight what it was, but they hinted it'd be Kaiji 21. ;__;

I just rewatched Kaiji 1-20 and it was still as good as when I saw it before.

Now I'm rewatching Akagi and I appreciate it more than I did the first time. It was mostly since I watched it in a sleep-deprived state without any knowledge of mahjong.

But being wide awake allows me to pay closer attention which does wonders for my enjoyability of the show. /blog

I like how the comment section takes a life of its own.

but yes, thank you for subbing this series. dialogue heavy shows need good subs. thumbs up.

I remember when Triad released the last 4 episodes of akagi in one go, that was kickass. At that time I really wanted to donate, and I still do.

........gunslinger girl................please? ;)

>5214

Yeah, that's why all the psychology textbooks say "inverse psychology."

Does Triad always release at night? It seems like episodes are always put up after 9pm.

If that's the case, then I don't have to check every five minutes during the day. That'd save me a lot of hassle.

With a little editing they do
