Character information
Name: Nangou
Series: Akagi
Tier: Commoner

Nangou is a character in the Akagi manga series by Nobuyuki Fukumoto. A compulsive gambler, in the beginning of the series he finds himself indebted to the yakuza, trying to win back his debt in a game of mahjong. It is at this point that he crosses paths with Akagi.

Modus operandi

Despite having experience with mahjong, Nangou is one of the weakest player in the story, finding himself losing to players that don't even provide a challenge to Akagi, such as Ryuuzaki. In contrast with Akagi, he is risk averse and favors safe plays, which allows him to rack up points when the flow of the game is in his favor but makes him easily seen through and manipulated by stronger players, as can be observed when he plays against Ichikawa.
