Man everybody usually likes Kurosawa as much as they do the other Fukumoto Nobuyuki series. I haven't been able to get into it personally. I couldn't quite get into Akagi either due to a lack of interest in Mahjong. It's been years and I actually finally know the rules, so maybe I'll try that one day.
Reading Kaiji Part 3 again though, see if anything changed for me. Re-read 4~6, parts of 2
