Kaiji manga. The program, titled Jinsei Gyakuten Battle Kaiji (Life Reveral Battle Kaiji), is slated to air at the end of the year.
Participants on the program will take on "life reversal battles" inspired by challenges in the manga. Some of the same games that appear in the manga will appear on the program. The website states, "Different from the original Kaiji, there is zero risk! Even if you lose a match, you will not be burdened with additional debt or take bodily damage." The program's set will also recreate the world of the manga.
The program plans to award the final winner 200,000 yen ($1,790) and money earned in games. The website states that participation is open to both "famous and unknown" people who are "dreaming of turning their lives around." An application is currently available through the website.
In the inspired three spinoff manga.
In addition, Kaiji has streaming both anime seasons.
