Yeah hahah. It's got the sensibilities of a sports genre but with higher stakes


And btw, for those who dont know it yet, apparently theres a gap in the scanlations because the translator saw the rise of the anime. So to continue reading the manga, you actually have to watch the anime. And this happens TWICE. Moreso, the manga then picks up where the 2nd season anime left off, ending it at 168

Any manga suggestion that is mind-challenging like Gamble Fish or Liar Game?

I think Baccano would fit the bill.

So Raptor, did you actually branch off the anime where the scanlates ended?

Whoops, I forgot to mention that Baccano started off as a Light Novel so enjoy reading.

Isn't Liar Game a game of wits? I don't think Baccano is like that, but you should still watch it regardless.

Pretty much, same goes with Gamble Fish as well. Haven't heard of Baccano before though.

Screw that... My friend is watching that anime and it looks horrible and predictable... So far I have yet to watch a single episode and I was right about everything that's happened... There is a reason sport anime is super boring

Ping pong sounds like that movie balls of fury... Which if that's the case it should be funny
