| That has to be the worst OP I've ever heard. Is this Death Note + Ahegao + Gambling? I'll stick around for 1-2 episodes before deciding if I'll finish it. |
| This reminded me so much of Death Note. |
 |
| angelical girl? is the same to the blonde, she is a demon, a demon of the game, of the bets!!! One point to highlight, the style draw lips when the "sinfulness" smile, cool!!!! 8/10 for this start! |
| Wow that was so trippy. The style is going to take some time to get used to. Felt like they were laying on the edge way too thick at times. |
 |
| Well those facial expressions were...unique. I'm not digging it so far, just made me feel like watching Akagi or Kaiji instead. |

| Interesting! Feels like Monogatari |
 |
| Well that's a pretty interesting story so far. I don't think I have ever watch an anime with gambling, which feels fresh me. And like a lot of people here mentioned these face expressions are nuts. Jabami is crazy but I like that a lot and it suits her. At first she seems like a harmless girl but in truth she's absolute wild if it's about gambling. Rip Saotome. That's a lot of money she has to pay back, even if we heard Jabami just won because of luck :o Didn't expect the last scene. She gave Suzui so much money just because she had fun. Can't wait to see how this will go on. |
 |
| That was really interesting. Those facial expressions that the blonde girl was making was so funny and creepy at the same time. Jabami is so cool! |
 |
| They caught me off guard with the facial expression, i fell in love with Mary from the 1st episode but gotta hold myself because there's more to come i'm so excited |
 |
| Well that was quite the interesting first episode I must say! Really weird yet impressive, really looking forwards to see what this anime has to offer! |
 |
| Man the facial expressions sure are eccentric in this show! Interesting first episode, but man nowadays I feel there is a lot of these "a weird twist on a well known game" gambling anime so I hope this one can differentiate itself from the rest. |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| Wow I really like the way this one has started! Gambling is always fun to watch! Plus my God the main girl is sizzling! That ED just wow. |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| The OP is FIRE So the teachers are aware of this school's very not subtle gambling culture/keeping some students as pets and just sorta turn a blind eye to it? I love the facial expressions and Yumeko in general. I wonder if Mary's going to become the pet now since she owes more than Ryouta does. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| I've been wanting to watch this for a while because I keep seeing pictures of yumeko online and she's just so pretty! Definitely the reason I wanted to watch xD No idea what it was even about. The games are very interesting. I definitely think I'll enjoy it. Just have a love/hate relationship with the art. It's so beautiful. Their eyes are drawn so beautiful and I love how the seem to glow. But those crazy faces they kee making are sooo ugly haha. They look gross and bad. Specifically the blonde chicks. I guess that's just how the show it. And the exaggeration makes it kinda funny but man some of her faces are just uglyyy. And she's so cute too. So that's crazy. |

| I started watching this show because the trailer was so good, but obviously my hopes were too high. Nice first episode but the main character is boring and the guy has no backbone. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Welp. It was entertaining at the very least. Yumeko is at least proactively crazy. And as expected the style and what not is uniquely estrange from everything else I've watched. |
 |
| Damn! I loved it! I haven't watched a good high-stakes anime in a long time. I think I'm gonna enjoy this one! |
 |
on 
What the fuck is wrong with their mouths?  Her mouth is almost bigger than her hand This anime makes me VERY unconfortable |
  |
| As others have said the OP is great. It's sexy, fun and beautifully animated although the music isn't something I would listen to outside of the show. It's a good start. Now they just need to keep it interesting and develop the characters more. |
| I'm a bit confused here. Suzui was given 5 million from Yumeko right? Then he use 1 million to pay student council so that he can be released from being a pochi. That way, he should still have 4 million left over. Then considering that he has a debt of 5 million to Saotome, it can be assumed that he paid the remaining money to Saotome, and still owes 1 million. But what happened after, why it was as if Saotome looked like she completely ran out of money? |
| Wooowwwww, I was so immersed in this ep that it only felt like 5mins!!!!!! I looooveeeee Jabami-san *heart eyes* Might have to change my cosplans to her for A-kon now <3333333 |
| Bitch I'm rich If ignore they are betting on money like candies it could be interesting watch |
 |
| The detail is facial expressions of the characters is awesome! |
| Mary and her not-so-subtle poker face was pretty off-putting but Jabami's was on a whole other level with those beastly eyes and all. It looked like she climaxed at the very thought of gambling away all she had and the most menacing part is how adorable I found her to be. That rock paper scissors game was straight out of Kaiji and Mary breaking the 4th wall like that was pretty amusing. Ryouta got saved from being a school pet for life thanks to Jabami while Mary got spared from being 8 million yen in debt because of her waiving it off like it was nothing. They're definitely all going for a wild ride. |
 |
| why do people need to have a male mc? i never really thought ryouta was the mc in this. too many powerful woman for him to be a relevant character more than a plot device. |
  |
| Well, the story seems cool so far, but I don't like the art style. No one would make the sort of faces they were making xD |
| I am not a weeb, I simply enjoy 2D girls |
| Awesome first episode! The visuals and face expressions were freaky and beautifull at the same time I already love yumenko, her glowing red eyes and her voice are just stunning! |
| Got NGNL vibes from this show, seems like Yumeko will have to look through different tricks just like Sora to win those games. I thought she would take the dude and Mary as pet for the money she owes her. Good first episode, the characters are batshit crazy. |
| Kinda suprised by this one, a bit weird but it has sucked me in right away lol |
| Idk why I feel fire by first episode. The MC is the black hair girl and really she was amazing. Yumeko is just so kind and has feeling for an intense gambling only. No further more. |
| OP song & animation was wonderful. I love Yumeko's reaction to gambling. I like how calm and collected Yumeko is. She is cunning and knows exactly what to say to get to her opponent it seems. Her eyes are another level though. I loved the ED song & animation that went along with it. |

| the girls' facial expressions kill me, hahaha |
| Based Certified. I love anime armpits. |
| Rapefaces...rapefaces everywhre. |

| Honestly I'm not sure what this is, or how it will turn out to be. Also, sorry to disappoint you, but Jabami didn't really wow me. That is probably because I don't really understand Japanese currency, but whatever Indeed it was a daring move, but did it wow me, no not really. Honestly, I'm just glad I can watch something that finally has something that'll excite me, because for this first episode, Kakegurui excelled that pretty well. |

| This anime has some weird characters,names and behaviour too..This story about rich people children's gambling for money,etc..This story runs around this girl named jabami.In this anime their show calm and unpleasant or scary faces of girls. |
 |
| Oh man! What an episode, first thing first it's both creepy and intresting at the same time But really I can say that it's unique,the characters expressions and the songs.i can't decide whether I like it or not But it begins with a bang! showing mc like a loser and some girl just bets huge amount of money with the person that she just met and she just finishes that blonde girl's pride I really liked the way they shown ,I mean they didn't drag the story.just like that she explains how she figured out the trick I just can't say whether I like it or not but I can assure that it was unique and intresting |
| This is some gold for now. Lose yourself to madness sounds like fun. I can see the quality dying quickly but that's a little expected. Would love to see improvement in this somehow tho. |
| Bro there is nothing more entertaining than watching someone gamble it all the thrill of watching someone gamble is guaranteed |
 |
| Okay... starting it before Netflix airs the Twins. First impressions? WTF is this. LMAO. I love those expressions and Jabami Yumeko is so fucking hot. I don't remember the last time I got down bad for a character this much. LOL. Well, I'm definitely looking forward to it. OP was cool but that ED had boobies. So... |
