Thank you thread for introducing me to Nozaki, I didn't think it would be my sort of thing but it was just so funny and charming so I ended up loving it.

If you skip episodes 11 through 14, Samurai Flamenco is probably a pretty good show with a decent dip in quality in the middle

well no one's posted any votes in a couple days, and the extra votes for seki and bahamut got bahamut into the list and kicked ubw out, so now's as good a time as any to arbitrarily add the results to the wiki, i guess.

i need five more tiles for that, haven't you ever played mahjong :rolleyes:

anyway, the wiki is missing pages for Nozaki, Chaika, Gundam Build Fighters, Seki, and Bahamut. please make the page look nice and not have red links on it, tia.

I jumped ship an episode or two into the Flamengers arc because it was garbage. Does it get better?

the real best anime of 2014 was saki: the nationals, but keep it a secret from the mahjong nonplayers ok.

Is there a good guide to how mahjong works that I can read before I dive into Akagi in earnest

It gets exponentially more insane and utterly ridiculous, a la Gurren Lagaan. The best is yet to come.

NANI?

Yeah, it's like GL only if it were directed by someone absolutely zero idea of visual flair and a bargain bin budget. And somehow boring.

Its kinda worth watching the later episodes just to see Mr. Justice and The Ultimate Prime Minister, but it doesn't really ever get better.

The last couple of episodes are pretty good. The few episodes before that (but after the flamengers arc) are probably worth watching.

There is an Actually Good and Cool and Interesting plot twist at the end, pretty unlike the other plot twists that would start every new arc.

See, it really depends what you mean by "better". Does it become a higher quality, more competent show? Absolutely not.

Does the trainwreck becomes hilariously more bonkers in every way? Absolutely.

Idk, I feel like the post-flamengers stuff is a marked improvement from the flamengers stuff. It's still not like the best show ever but I think the last two episodes at least and the Metal Gear Rising battle are worth watching.
