Just finished episode 9, looking forward to the last 2 episodes!
I just wish the show had a little more budget!
What annoys me most are the wigs! Mushroom, Mni-mushroom ( :rofl:) and white "really fake hair" stoner have such cheap wigs and costumes. Or is that done on purpose to remind the viewer of the original manga???
Oh well, itLs fun anyway and Nao has become smarter! A bit at least!
Just finished episode 10.
Can't wait for the 3 hours long finale next week!!
Spoiler — click to revealSomehow when Akiyama went bezerk, I sorta figured that he is acting it out. Anyway there's a part which I dun really understand. How can the opposing team withdraw any money when Akiyama took their cards?

Spoiler — click to reveal Oh.. They used the cards belonging to the members of the water country instead (meaning the money they got came from the water bank). In other words, the fire cards were not used at all hence no money was smuggled (besides those smuggled by the white haired guy) from the fire bank, meaning the large sum of money left in the fire bank was equally distributed to all players in the water country. I would have thought there would be a restriction to the number of times each card is used -.- (the water cards besides akiyama's were used twice of what they should have been used)
something i didn't get was how akiyama disadvantaged the white hair guy by letting the rest of the fire country members get alot more money than him. Shouldn't the money they have individually (those in the fire country) be the same?

Spoiler — click to revealNoticed that when Akiyama lost his cool and took over, the white hair guy was never shown to be a smuggler or an inspector, which doesn't make any sense as he should've taken advantage of the situation. Instead, he let the other 3 persons be the smugglers and inspectors and subsequently ended up with alot more money than he does. I suggest you read the manga whose game 3 is a lot more sophisticated. About 1/3 past ep. 10 is where the drama deviates from the manga, starting from ch. 39.

Spoiler — click to reveal ahh thanks for clarifying. yeah it didn't make sense unless hmm.. that white haired guy was too busy laughing away at him OR akiyama made the rest of the members from the fire country go for their turn before the white haired guy got his chance to :hehe:
Spoiler — click to reveal i watched the part where akiyama explains his strategy. but sad to sae... i realli dun get him. hais. so for those that akiyama passed, opposing members get the money and for those that the opposing members doubted on akiyama, opposing members also get the money? issit liddat? so water country's pple still needa continue the next round because onli fire country's members can leave with the big sum of money? issit? haha

Spoiler — click to reveal Yeah.. the point is to let everyone benefit from it besides the white-haired guy. The opposing members get all the money BUT from the water bank instead of the fire bank where they were supposed to get their money from originally. Akiyama's grp members benefit from this too, since the opponents (besides the white-haired guy) did not smuggle any money from the firebank, hence the large sum of money remaining is equally divided among akiyama's grp members. The white-haired guy was disadvantaged in that round because he only went to 'smuggle' once since he was too busy laughing his head off when all his other teammates (were instructed to?) smuggle money-.- (i didn't get this part at first too but i guess this seems to be the only logical explanation)
I suppose yeah the other members of the fire country already have enough money to back out of the competition. But that would mean that the members of the water country are in debt along with the white-haired guy. Not sure how akiyama is going to resolve this >< Seems pretty complicated. I don't think it's possible to let everyone go off debt free besides the white-haired guy (since i think he's only short of a little bit of money to go off free.. i don't know!)
Hmm anyone knows if this smuggling game has already ended? Or is there another round? If there is, i would think it's pretty easy for the white-haired guy to get enough money to back out as long as he insists being the smuggler. Don't think akiyama will be able to defeat him all the time. Well.. let's watch and see :)
