I want to see more of this genre, mind-games, high-stakes

we get new gambling anime once in a blue moon



to clarify: I'm talking about anime like Kaiji, Akagi, Tomodachi game (not a gambling anime but fits the description), One outs, Legendary Gambler Tetsuya...

Very much. As someone who likes gambling himself, it's definitely interesting to see how it's portrayed in anime. Quite unfortunate how we haven't gotten a good gambling anime in a while now. Emphasis on good

I don't mind seeing this topic in anime especially if it's more of obscure/extraordinary gambling topics ex. Kakegurui.

But I wouldn't like to see it in more realistic take as real gambling, as by myself I've lost quite a bit of money on gambling and it wouldn't be fun to watch stuff like that especially if it would be shown in a good light in a title which might be the case.

The latest Kaiji anime stopped airing about 12 years ago. There exist a dozen of finished manga parts already, but for some reason nobody's gonna animate it anymore.

@Yonahim_Zz Yeah I have been patiently waiting to hear news about an announcement but nothing. I realize that Kakegurui probably isn't that high on their priority list but the people need it. At least we got some episodes of Twin, I'm thankful for that. I'm just greedy and want more lol

Yes but having battles of wits/mind games isn't enough (e.g. Kakegurui, Tomodachi Game, Liar Liar), they must also be good and that's pretty rare (Kaiji, One Outs, Liar Game).

Only if the show doesn't focus too much on the game aspect, there needs to be a proper balance which is rare in this genre and also in some other genres.

Only if that gambling had something to do with saving lives or putting the main character at risk.

No risk, no fun!

I want to see an anime character taking chances fighting bad guys, be on death's doorstep, breaking the law or just do something unbelievable. Something intense as well.

Too much kids stuff in recent anime.

Same here as it depends of the theme of how the gambling aspect is incorporated or mixed into.

I'm not particularly invested in gambling anime. I've seen "Kaiji" but don't care about checking out "Kakegurui" for example. If an anime I watch happens to be about gambling, then it is what it is, but I'm not going out of my way to watch them.
