Akagi: The Genius Who Fell Into Darkness

Finished

アカギ ~闇に降り立った天才~

Nangou is a gambler drowning in debt, cornered by the yakuza in a life-or-death mahjong match he cannot afford to lose. One rainy night in 1958, as his defeat seems certain, a soaking wet boy walks into the parlor. Shigeru Akagi, only thirteen years old and on the run from the police, has never touched a mahjong tile. Yet Nangou, sensing something extraordinary in him, hands the game over to the stranger.

Akagi sits down against the yakuza and reveals a terrifying natural talent for gambling. Unshaken by danger and indifferent to death, he turns the match on its head. What begins as a desperate substitution becomes the birth of a legend, as the underworld discovers a genius who plays without fear and wins without hesitation.
