True.
He's one out of like two or three exceptions.

The red head looks fine, but this new Zeke is like Garma meets Gato except not even a fraction as cool as either one of them.
Also, grizzled veteran protagonist sounds good on paper, but without a missing eye and/or beard, he just looks like some half-baked cannon fodder.

Didn't he die of AIDs?
It's been so long since i've seen Samurai X and Rurouni Kenshin that I don't even remember what any of the other characters names were.
Oh well.
If you were talking about Himura Kenshin by "Roruni Kenshin" then that's what happened, if you mean as a series it was cancelled because the third season was an utter filler pile of shit that was so bad that they lost 60% of their viewers.
It happens.

Way too many.

Only three, actually.
Because there's also this cool thing called "sequels", and another cool thing called "spin-offs".
Not every Gundam series is identical.

I think that's what he meant.
Not every Gundam series is identical.
But they are all really similar in some way or another.

No way, ZZ is totally different from all those other lame pieces of shit.
In fact, I dare say it's not an anime at all.

That's what happens when a cute girl flies on a broom. But I think that pales in comparison to Agent Aika; There are so many upskirts that I don't see why they bother wearing skirts at all.

You're unbelievably obnoxious.
You don't contribute anything of value.
You make one word posts.
Anyway I finished Kaiji.
I got to say, with the balance beam ark I was starting to wonder if the series was going down hill just like Death Note did.
I was satisfyingly wrong.
The e-card ark(Even if it was like 5 or 6 episodes for that one game between Kaiji and Tongewhatever)
And the lottery episodes were great also, I got to say: The last episode was great.
*SPOILERS AHEAD*
I honestly didn't expect him to lose, which was a really good plot twist if you think about it considering that if he won it would've way to predictable.
If it weren't for the fact Gendo told me that there will be a season 2 and the last 30 seconds of the last episode where Kaiji is swearing to get revenge I really would've thought that was how the series would end.
And even if it did end there, it still would've satisfied me.
All in all, probably one of the best animes i've seen.
*END SPOILERS*

Yes. It was essential. Just like the gratuitous nutsacks in Pom Poko. You need to remember that there was a time before Strike Witches ruined fanservice.

It was only fitting that greed would ruin him.
It was, all the more reason I think it would've been the perfect ending to the series.
In subtitles they kept having like "a million yen" "20.1 million yen" etc.
Does anyone know how much a million yen converts to in Euros or in USD?

About 10k, with both. Bit more in dollars. Rule of the thumb, 100 yen is about one dollar/euro.
