Kita ze Inbou! - キタぜ陰謀!

[ Episodes 9-10]

What will Akiyama do against the self-proclaimed psychic Yokoya?

Holy crap. These two episodes are among the best of the entire series! I honestly don’t know where to start. This third round kept on bringing out mind-f*ck after mind-f*ck. Not even giving the viewer enough time to rest their brains from the swelling.

After the preview in episode 8, I really thought that Yokoya had X-Ray vision and was a psychic. He can bluff pretty hard but could only do so because one backstabbing bastard on Akiyama and Nao’s team (Water Country): Ono. The reason he was able to guess odd amounts correctly was because Ono sent signals to him about how much money a person in the Water Country would be trying to smuggle. It just so happens that Yokoya is also the MLM that Akiyama tried to destroy three years ago for causing his mother to be in debt thus leading to her suicide. This of course leads to Akiyama snapping. Or does he? Hell no! It was all an act! He successfully fooled Yokoya into thinking he had fallen into despair while he went through with his genius plan with Yokoya’s three other teammates in the Fire Country team. That is, he secured money from them and is now planning on taking Yokoya’s money away from him little by little. It seems that next episode will be the last but I’m not sure. If it is then I hope everything culminates to a great ending.
