[01:14] Nar
    Washizu Mahjong, where defeat
    means total destruction.
[01:17] Nar
    The genius from the
    darkness, Akagi Shigeru,
[01:19] Nar
    displayed that genius
    in the first two matches
[01:22] Nar
    and turned the flow of
    the game into his favor.
[01:26] Nar
    In the third match, though,
    with his back against the wall,
[01:29] Nar
    Washizu showed his monster-like luck by
    evolving a trash hand to a haneman hand.
[01:35] Nar
    Akagi is in a desperate situation.
[01:37] Nar
    The countdown to death is beginning.
[01:45] Was
    One more tile.
[01:48] Was
    I just need to draw one more
    tile and I can kill this man.

[02:07] Nar
    Akagi has lost 1,100 CCs
    of blood thus far.
[02:10] Nar
    If Washizu draws his winning tile
    for a haneman, each player pays 6,000.
[02:14] Nar
    It means Akagi will lose
    an additional 600 CCs.
[02:20] oug
    That will put him one step
    away from the fatal amount.
[02:23] oug
    Each and every tile Washizu draws is
    a potential death sentence for Akagi.
[02:34] Was
    Just one more, Akagi.
[02:39] Was
    And then I'll be able to kill you.
[02:44] Was
    I can kill you.
[02:50] Was
    Your life right now is a
    veritable candle in the wind.
[02:56] Was
    I can see it.
[03:01] Was
    The flame of your life is about to die out.
[03:04] Was
    That final flicker.
[03:10] Was
    This could be the very tile
    that extinguishes your life.
[03:17] Was
    So... what's with him?
[03:22] Was
    He's on the brink,
    so why is he so calm?
[03:27] Was
    Damn it!
[03:44] Was
    This isn't fun at all.
[03:47] Was
    It's only the ones around him who panic.
[03:50] Was
    But the one who should panic most...
[03:53] Was
    This punk... doesn't move a muscle.
[03:58] Was
    This isn't fun.
[04:00] Was
    Why aren't you afraid?
[04:02] Was
    Why don't you tremble?
[04:04] Was
    Do you think you won't die?
[04:07] Was
    Do you think you cannot die?
[04:09] Was
    Are you making light of all this?
[04:11] Was
    You think it won't come to that?
[04:17] Was
    So even if I draw my winning
    tile, without a reverse dora,
[04:25] Was
    I'll have a riichi, tsumo, three
    dora, only a dealer mangan.
[04:28] Was
    You're saying it won't
    go so far as a haneman?
[04:33] Was
    No.
[04:34] Was
    Even so, a mangan tsumo as dealer
    gets me 4,000 from each player.
[04:40] Was
    Which means he'll have
    400 CCs of blood drawn.
[04:45] Was
    Combined with his blood until
    now, that'll be 1,500 CCs.
[04:49] Was
    He may not die from it,
    but he'll be at the very end!
[04:52] Was
    He'll barely be alive after
    that much blood loss.
[04:56] Was
    He'll be weaving.
[04:58] Was
    In a half-dead state where he won't
    even be able to think clearly.
[05:02] Was
    If he keeps playing in that state,
    a mistake is inevitable.
[05:06] Was
    In the end, he will die.
[05:10] Was
    This is a self-evident truth.
[05:13] Was
    It is impossible that you
    don't comprehend that.
[05:18] Was
    So then, why don't you tremble?
[05:22] Was
    Why?
[05:24] Was
    Are you not afraid?
[05:27] Was
    Of death?
[05:28] Was
    Of dying?
[05:31] Was
    Of dying?!
[05:33] Was
    Of dying?!
[05:35] Was
    Of dying?!
[05:42] Was
    This cannot be.
[05:44] Was
    Until now, every one of those
    worthless young punks who died here
[05:49] Was
    cracked their masks when the
    moment of death became evident
[05:54] Was
    and showed me their true, fragile face.
[06:01] (Flashback) Fake
    Stop it!
[06:02] (Flashback) Fake
    I don't want to die!
[06:04] (Flashback) Fake
    I don't want to die!
[06:06] (Flashback) Fake
    I don't want to die!
[06:07] Was
    It's that tenacious desire to live.
[06:11] Was
    They know it cannot be fulfilled
[06:16] Was
    and yet they cling to it.
[06:19] Was
    And then they expire.
[06:24] Was
    And yet, this lunatic...
[06:28] Was
    Lunatic. Lunatic!
[06:31] Was
    This lunatic!
[06:35] Was
    He cannot be an exception.
[06:38] Was
    That is simply not possible.
[06:42] Suz
    Washizu-sama.
[06:43] Was
    What?
[06:45] Was
    I told you to not deal into my hand yet.
[06:48] Suz
    No, that's not it.
[06:55] Was
    The 2 of circles?
[06:57] Was
    You drew the fourth one?
[06:59] Was
    This is fun.
[07:01] Suz
    Shall I?
[07:03] Was
    Of course!
[07:05] Suz
    Yes, sir!
[07:08] Suz
    Kan!
[07:10] Yasu
    Not again!
[07:15] Nar
    It's East Hand 2, the 11th turn.
[07:17] Nar
    Suzuki declares another kan.
[07:20] Nar
    This concealed kan will add
    more support to Washizu.
[07:24] Nar
    It's a greedy kan whose reverse
    doras could boost his hand even more.
[07:36] Nar
    It is fruitful.
[07:42] Nar
    This means Washizu's hand
    has evolved yet again.
[07:47] Yasu
    1 of bamboo...
[07:48] Yasu
    The new dora is the 2 of bamboo.
[07:51] Nar
    It morphs!
[07:52] Nar
    Into a six-dora hand.
[07:54] Nar
    With a riichi, six dora,
[07:56] Nar
    his hand is now guaranteed
    to be a dealer's haneman.
[07:58] Nar
    Should he draw his winning tile
    or get even a single reverse dora,
[08:03] Nar
    his hand would go all the
    way to a dealer's baiman.
[08:05] Nar
    It is truly an exceptional situation.
[08:09] Man
    What remarkable... luck!
[08:17] Man
    It's surging forward...
[08:19] Man
    Something... coming to
    elevate Washizu-sama.
[08:24] Man
    Something magical.
[08:31] Was
    I feel it.
[08:32] Was
    I feel it now!
[08:35] Was
    Is this powerful feeling...
    is it the will of the demons?
[08:45] Suz
    Washizu-sama, shall I discard it here?
[08:51] Nar
    With the guaranteed dealer haneman,
[08:53] Nar
    the current flow of the game
[08:54] Nar
    suggests that the chance of
    getting a reverse dora is high.
[08:58] Suz
    Isn't this enough?
[09:01] Was
    You fool.
[09:05] Was
    What are you saying?
[09:06] Was
    Why would I ever stop now?
[09:09] Was
    Keep going, keep going!
[09:11] Was
    If I draw the 1 of circles myself,
    I'll have a dealer baiman.
[09:18] Was
    8,000 points from everyone.
[09:21] Was
    I'll be able to steal another
    800 CCs of blood from him.
[09:26] Was
    That will be a total of 1,900 CCs.
[09:31] Was
    That amount of blood loss
    is certain death.
[09:36] Was
    An amount that is absolutely fatal.
[09:38] Was
    He will die!
[09:41] Was
    With his death so imminent,
    even he must begin to tremble!
[09:48] Was
    I must see it!
[09:51] Was
    Show me that agony!
[09:54] Was
    Tremble!
[09:56] Was
    Show me your despair!
[10:13] Was
    Keep going.
[10:19] Was
    Now show me...
[10:21] Was
    Start trembling from
    despair and show me.
[10:24] Was
    Under that mask of calm you wear,
[10:29] Was
    show me your true, fragile self,
    convulsing in fear as you cling to life.
[10:37] Was
    If you discard it, you will,
    undoubtedly, die.
[10:44] Was
    Huh?
[10:45] Was
    You put it in your hand again?
[10:49] Was
    Interesting.
[10:51] Was
    It seems like his hand is finally
    starting to get somewhere.
[10:55] Was
    Looks like you finally got rid
    of most of your useless tiles.
[10:59] Was
    So, will you finally get there,
[11:06] Was
    to that 1 of circles?
[11:14] Nar
    Suzuki's kan has completely
    used up all the 2 of circles tiles.
[11:18] Nar
    This closed wait has no way
    of becoming a sequence.
[11:21] Nar
    The 3 of circles pair still has potential,
[11:23] Nar
    but the 1 of circles is
    definitely worthless now.
[11:27] Was
    You'll never get into tenpai if
    you keep hanging on to that tile.
[11:33] Was
    Why don't you discard it, Akagi?
[11:36] Was
    Suzuki has a 1 of circles
    in his second discard pile,
[11:39] Was
    and you might just be
    imagining that it's a trap.
[11:45] Was
    Huh, Akagi?
[11:47] Was
    After all, that is what
    Mahjong is all about.
[11:51] Was
    The 1 of circles might just pass.
[11:54] Was
    Huh, Akagi?
[12:11] Was
    What's this?
[12:12] Was
    He still won't discard it?
[12:15] Was
    Does he actually know?
[12:18] Was
    Does he know I'm waiting
    for the 1 of circles?
[12:22] Was
    That's fine.
[12:24] Was
    That's fine, too.
[12:30] Was
    It just means that I'll
    have to draw it for myself.
[12:37] Was
    You will die!
[12:47] Was
    You will die!
[12:51] Was
    You will die!
[12:54] Was
    You will die!
[12:57] Was
    You will die.
[13:02] Was
    What is this?
[13:05] Was
    Why don't you tremble?
[13:07] Was
    You will die from this draw...
[13:11] Was
    Once I draw it...
[13:21] Was
    Again, the only ones who seem
    afraid are those around him.
[13:26] Was
    And still, you've yet to move a muscle.
[13:29] Was
    Why?
[13:31] Was
    Why?!
[13:41] Man
    What is this draw?
[13:43] Man
    This flow?
[13:46] Nar
    Unbelievably, he is now at eight dora!
[13:50] Was
    Kan!
[14:02] Nar
    By delaying Suzuki from dealing
    into his hand immediately,
[14:07] Nar
    Washizu's hand develops
    in an unexpected way.
[14:18] Was
    The demons have finally
    taken possession of me.
[14:28] Was
    I'm sorry, Akagi-kun, but it looks
    like this is the end for you.
[14:36] Was
    I can hear their voices...
[14:40] Was
    The voices of the demons
    who rule Mahjong.
[14:44] Was
    The voices telling me to kill you.
[14:57] Yasu
    He's a... monster.
[15:01] Nar
    Once Washizu's luck is set in motion,
[15:03] Nar
    it is beyond the understanding
    of ordinary minds.
[15:06] Nar
    Akagi's sense may be extraordinary,
[15:08] Nar
    but Washizu's luck goes
    to the utmost limit.
[15:12] Man
    Anything can happen now.
[15:17] Man
    It's godly.
[15:19] Man
    Or perhaps the demons
    truly have possessed him.
[15:26] Was
    Shall we go on?
[15:28] Was
    Before I draw my winning
    tile from the dead wall,
[15:34] Was
    let's see the new dora indicator.
[15:39] Was
    Now, take me higher.
[15:42] Was
    To an inconceivably high place.
[15:46] Was
    Take me higher... higher and higher!
[16:11] Was
    Look at this, Akagi-kun.
[16:16] Was
    This is what the will of the demons
    who rule Mahjong looks like.
[16:22] Yasu
    What?
[16:24] Yasu
    Another 1 of bamboo?!
[16:26] oug
    Wh-Which means... 12 dora?!
[16:32] Yasu
    This is impossible!
[16:34] Yasu
    How can this happen?!
[16:37] Was
    They're pushing down on me
    with an unbelievable force.
[16:43] Was
    They're pushing down on my back.
[16:48] Was
    They're here.
[16:50] Was
    Something beyond description
    is on my back right now.
[16:56] Was
    Something demonic
    from the netherworld.
[17:01] Was
    They're gathered in great numbers
    and swarming around my back.
[17:14] Was
    This old body can't
    hold itself up anymore.
[17:19] Was
    They're heavy... so heavy!
[17:23] Was
    It hurts... it hurts!
[17:27] ---
    Ah, it hurts!
[17:27] Man
    Washizu-sama!
[17:39] Yasu
    Evil spirits...
[17:50] Was
    Look, Akagi...
[17:53] Was
    I am truly possessed by demons now.
[17:57] Was
    Anything is possible for me now.
[18:02] Was
    Now it is inevitable.
[18:04] Was
    It is inevitable that I
    draw the winning tile.
[18:08] Was
    Which means you will die,
[18:11] Was
    Akagi Shigeru.
[18:15] Was
    I'm not talking big here.
[18:19] Was
    I'm certain you know.
[18:22] Was
    You can feel it.
[18:25] Was
    If anyone can understand it, it's you.
[18:28] Was
    With a dealer baiman, you'll have
    lost a total of 1,900 CCs of blood.
[18:36] Was
    You would have a tiny
    chance of survival.
[18:41] Was
    But I have 14 han in my hand right now.
[18:46] Was
    And with a dealer yakuman,
    you really don't stand a chance.
[18:51] Was
    Altogether, you would
    lose 2,700 CCs of blood.
[18:56] Was
    You'll die!
[19:00] Was
    You have no choice but to die.
[19:04] Nar
    Now Washizu reaches for
    the dead wall draw.
[19:12] Was
    I'll draw it and kill him.
[19:17] Was
    Where are you?
[19:19] Was
    1 of circles, where are you, 1 of circles?
[19:23] Was
    Where are you?
[19:25] Was
    Kill, kill.
[19:30] Was
    I'll... kill... him.
[19:38] Was
    I'll kill him.
[19:40] Was
    Where are you, 1 of circles?
[19:43] Was
    Come on out, my precious 1 of circles.
[19:51] Was
    Where are you?
[19:52] Was
    Where?
[19:54] Was
    Is this it?
[19:56] Was
    The 1 of circles?
[19:58] Was
    So where is the 1 of circles?
[20:09] Was
    Is this the one?
[20:14] Was
    This one?
[20:17] Yasu
    What... is this chill I'm feeling?
[20:21] Oug
    Is this chill...
[20:30] Nar
    Was it summoned by the madness
    of this man possessed by evil?
[20:34] Nar
    At that moment, it was
    as if they could all see
[20:38] Nar
    the demons erupting from
    this old man's back.
[20:42] Nar
    Everyone in the room could feel it.
[20:47] Nar
    And they had come to kill Akagi.
[20:56] Nar
    The game ruled by ruin,
    Washizu Mahjong.
[20:59] Nar
    With their tiles of life at stake,
    East Hand 2 moves into its final stages.
