Kaiji

Unable to get a job, Kaiji spends his days drinking, stealing and gambling in Tokyo until a loan shark's unexpected visit brings bad news.

Aboard the ship, Kaiji and his fellow debtors hear the rules of a rock-paper-scissors variation they must win to gain their freedom.

Despite teaming up with Kaiji and Furuhata, Ando makes a move on his own, forcing an infuriated Kaiji to devise a new strategy for success.

When Kaiji, Ando and Furuhata are out of cards but have a huge amount of cash, they decide to buy up the “Rock” cards to tilt the game in their favor.

Kaiji tries to convince Kitami to face him in a deadly showdown. But getting him to agree will require tenacity and a dangerous raising of the stakes.

After his battle with Kitami, Kaiji sets out to sweep up the remaining "Paper" cards. He has a strong hand, but only 30 minutes remain on the clock.

With only 15 minutes left, the remaining competitors reshuffle the last cards between them, forcing Kaiji’s team to restrategize with a new hand.

Funai frantically tries to find the missing three cards but with time running out, Kaiji forces him into an unfair wager.

Torn between Ando's lucrative proposal and his own conscience, Furuhata struggles to decide whether or not he should rescue Kaiji from a grim fate.

Months after the Espoir incident, Kaiji tries to pay off his debt by working a low-paid job at a convenience store. His manager accuses him of theft.
