Mangaka. Author.
Akagi is a mahjong manga. It assumes you know mahjong from the beginning. I wouldn’t recommend it unless you really like the game. I barely made it 6 pages into the manga after someone gifted me a volume for Japanese practice.
If you want to see a lighter take on gambling, maybe Kakegurui or No Game No Life.
If you want death game stuff, maybe Btooom!. Mirai Nikki is also a classic in the same vein. Much more over the top would be the Fate series (Fate Stay Night, Fate Unlimited Blade Works, Fate Zero, etc.) Much less intense but still enjoyable was Death Parade. And we’re getting pretty far from the theme but theoretically Sword Art Online checks the death game box; reviled by true connoisseurs 🍷, I still think it’s plenty enjoyable if you don’t think about it too deeply.
If you’re looking for something in the “psychological” category, I can recommend Psycho-Pass for something serious with action, Oshi no ko for something serious with drama ,or Kaguya-sama wa kokurasetai! for a lighter take.
Those game wikis are basically the only ones I use an adblocker on. They’re basically unusable on mobile.
I’m gonna be honest, if they used a feature that wasn’t ready for prime time, it’s still on them.
That’s not mileage infuriating, that’s fucking abuse.
The location of this comma, really annoys me.
Is there some twisted definition by which you can argue Windows is UNIX? Just to intensify the violence.
Physicist Albert Einstein did not commit suicide. That statement is true.
It’s only technically correct because it’s an obvious truth not worth shouting from the rooftops.
The author likely meant to say that Jeffrey Epstein didn’t kill himself. His death was ruled as a suicide but is thought by many to have been a murder to silence him because of all the secrets he knew.
I’m so thankful cable internet was the first kind I ever knew, around 1998.
By what criteria?
At work I honestly wish I had requested a Mac. My Lenovo laptop is always freezing while I’m off to lunch or overnight.
I don’t know what’s best, but I know FF7 Remake’s annoys me because I always expect it to have i-frames, but it doesn’t.
Their priorities were fucked up. Cigarettes and alcohol, obviously, but more sugar than rice? Huh?
Also, lots of meat but no other food groups?
Did they employ a Japanese crew?
吊荷の下に入るな
That’s casual Japanese for “don’t get under the suspended load”. A safety warning to Japanese crew working around the crane, I imagine.
This is an article about Taiwan receiving American weaponry. Japan isn’t mentioned anywhere.
I really hope there was an actual Japanese crew and the media outlet didn’t, like, find an image with Asian people and tanks and not question it. That would be bad.
All the full-stack devs I’ve worked with so far were just a back-end developers who writes terrible front-end code.
It’s one or the other. If you pay YouTube for Premium and don’t get any ads, advertisers don’t pay for your ad impression.
Oh yeah, I’m realizing this late but I’ve got a feeling you might like twists on the magical girl genre like Mahou Shoujo Ikusei Keikaku. Puella Magi Madoka Magica was among the first and is all a fan favourite, but it’s not the one I like the most.
