Kaiji

Months after amassing a ten million yen debt to the Teiai Group, Kaiji is finally caught and sent to an underground forced labor camp. His only hope of escape is to save up for a one-day pass back to the surface.

Kaiji attempts to win big money underground playing the dice game chinchirorin, but will his big bet pay dividends or clean him out?

The stakes are raised when Kaiji's first turn as dealer comes up, and the foreman and his crony bet the maximum amount!

Ootsuki and Isawa clean Kaiji out with big rolls, and Kaiji finds himself in debt once again, even in the depths of hell. Now his wages are garnished, landing him in the company of fellow losers, the "Forty-fivers."

It's a test of willpower as Kaiji and the Forty-fivers struggle to save up and pay their debts, enduring hunger, thirst, and abuse from Ootsuki.

After three long, brutal months, Kaiji and his friends finally pay off their debts, and decide to pool their money at the next chinchiro game. With the max bet limit removed, can they win big or will they be bankrupt again?!

The Forty-fivers are all in, and Ootsuki's got no choice but to resort to his magic dice. But will he get away with cheating this time?!

Kaiji catches Ootsuki red handed, but when the foreman tries to weasel his way out of the game, will Kaiji walk away empty-handed?

The Forty-fivers beat Ootsuki at his own game and win a huge windfall! The group entrusts Kaiji with the lot of their winnings, counting on him to go back to the surface and find the money to pay off all their debts!

Kaiji encounters a man named Sakazaki who entices him with a sure-fire way to win six hundred million yen in one night! The key? A pachinko machine where each ball is worth 4,000 yen…A machine known as the Bog!

Sakazaki attacks the Bog with his magnetic beer as he attempts to win the jackpot, but as he continues to play, Kaiji smells a rat…

Sakazaki ignores Kaiji's warning and continues sinking money into the Bog, and it's only when he's nearly bankrupt that the two realize how tough the machine's defenses really are.

After his attempt on the Bog fails, Sakazaki takes the last of his money to the track. But when Kaiji has an epiphany on how to defeat the monster machine, can he get there in time to stop Sakazaki from wasting his cash?!

From his descent into the underground hell to his first encounter with the Bog and Ichijou, relive Kaiji's journey and see just how far he has left to go.

Of all the potential accomplices, Kaiji brings on the merciless loan shark from Teiai, Endou! Along with Sakazaki, the three plan to mount a final assault on the Bog and win the jackpot!

Even after being tortured by Ichijou, Kaiji returns to the casino with Sakazaki and Endou to carry out his plan and begin his duel with the Bog!

Kaiji's devious plan leaves the Bog's Forest of Pins in ruins, and a frantic Ichijou turns on the same automatic block that stopped Sakazaki. With no hope for victory, why does Kaiji continue to fruitlessly pound on the blockade?!

Even with the Forest of Pins cleared, Ichijou's block keeps Kaiji away from the Bog's final area, the three plates. Will Kaiji's relentless assault on the flippers succeed before he runs out of money?!

Ichijou is backed into a corner and begins a frantic search for the remote that will activate the Bog's final "impenetrable defence." Will Kaiji lose his shot at the jackpot, or can he sink a ball before Ichijou gets the chance?

Kaiji's wild idea of tilting the building to tilt the Bog pays off, and Ichijou scrambles to counterattack! Can he stymie Kaiji again, or is it too late?!

With just 250 balls left, Kaiji is on the verge of defeat! Yet here, as he clings by a thread, he finally notices a surefire way to win!

Endou loans Kaiji his emergency cash and Kaiji resumes his attack on the Bog! As the crowd watches, he tapes three bills to the glass, declaring they're about to see a magic trick they'll never forget.

With the extreme tilt, the lost balls have clogged up the reject chute, blocking off the losing holes on the first two plates! Yet just when victory seems imminent, Kaiji realizes his fatal mistake!

Kaiji continues to fire away until even the losing holes on the third plate are blocked! It's just a matter of time now…or is it?

Even with the plates filled to the brim with silver balls, Ichijou's secret weapon, the Curtain of Wind, prevents Kaiji from winning. All seems lost when Kaiji runs out of money, until a ray of hope pierces the darkness!
