Nikaido legit might be the biggest loser protag Fukumoto came with by far. Way more pitiful than Kaiji and Kurosawa.

The Kurosawa sneaking food into his coworkers' lunches ordeal was pretty high grade. This one is definitely brutal too though.

Nikaido dealing with being shunned by rich people makes it more grueling imo

the thing that differentiates them, to me, is their circumstances. kurosawa was independent. nikaido has been mooching for 10 years. its like if instead of kaiji living with sakazaki for 2 months after the bog, he lived with him for 10 years.

True. Kurosawa's fantasies were very painful but he still had a reason to be at work, while Nikaido hasnt been wanted around for at least five years.

yeah actually they will

the first fkmt manga i read was the original strongest man kurosawa so in comparison this isn't THAT depressing. some people even think he's good [the three musketeers and kasumi]. no one thought kurosawa was good. he made friends with a cardboard cut out and the cardboard cut out died

That’s why I said a fun depressing time, not a depressing time.

nikaidou is tragedy because he's just one step behind, kurosawa is comedy because he was always an awkward goon, it just ends up working out for him. sort of. kind of. in a way of speaking. if you squint.
