----------------------------------------
Mm, this episode focused on the gamble game between Jabami and Kaede.

Kaede felt pretty confident he'd win but Jabami had her fun as expected. I think one thing interesting about this episode is that the masked girl decided to be the dealer. Pretty thrilling episode.

I love the reaction faces as usual especially from Jabami.

The faces in the episode are nice. We will see how the gambling ends in the next episode. So far as expected, they slowed the pacing a bit.

The reaction faces are good as usual. Yumeko lost against Kaeda and Itsuki was given a choice to choose one of them. She chose Yumeko because she didn't like being Kaeda's pawn. The match continues next episode.

Seeing confident Kaede was, I was waiting for Yumeko to destroy him. Its good that Sumeragi sided with Yumeko, her speech about risking it all to get to the top was quite persuasive.

Good episode.

I'm liking the game, simple rules, no bullshittery, poker.

Manyuda is glorious, he's an analytical type and Sugita fits really well for this role.

The masked girl's voice sounded.....interesting.

Yumeko is in a tight position right now but Sumeragi is going to help her out. It looks like we'll see a comeback in the next episode.

Another intense match, but over different reasons. Yumeko's match with Manyuda keeps more interesting to watch as it continues. Next week's episode will hopefully have a really fulfilling conclusion for the match

This went quite well, and I'm getting more used to Gintoki's voice on Manyuda. lol But another enjoyable episode overall, and it didn't feel as skipped or rushed as the last one (which made it rather disappointing to me).

The show is back on track, pretty nice episode.

Kaede is a cunning guy and the first one to know how to read Yumekos habit right.

And although this was more of a warm up game and he didn't go all out yet, this episode did a good job at setting up his character and strenghts.

The next round is definitely going to be very intense.

The masked girl's voice is that weird because it is obviously being modified via computer. With this and the mask, I think it's safe to assume she is a famous person and just doesn't want to be recognized. (Some kind of celebrity perhaps?)

Really interesting episode with the choice poker game...but Manyuda is different than the other opponents Yumeko has gone up against

The key to this whole episode is a short 3-5 second scene that everyone seems to be glossing over and that is the scene with the student council prez walking into a meeting...eerie and it's sure to be a key to the ending of this story

Isn't the series short? It is only 12-episode. It will probably end when Jabami-chan and the president are about to start their yuri love showdown.

At next episode, the calculating shonen will be another foothold of Jabami's to reach out the president. I wonder when she returns back from the meeting and finds out that all the council members have gone down before Jabami; will she feel naked against the gamble crazy lover?

Nice episode.

Like the simple game this time around and it was pretty interesting to watch. Manyuda might be Jabami's hardest opponent till date.

Loved how Jabami got Sumeragi to support her by putting her on point and calling her out in the middle of the game.

That is a rather interesting way to play poker.

Jabami as brilliant as ever, losing on purpose and getting Sumeragi on her side to give her all those chips.

Next episode should be great again.

Okay so like... does anyone here know what chapter of the manga next episode will be based on?

I've only really read volume one, and I've avoided looking up chapters for spoilers thus far. But the preview for next weeks episode looks pretty damn intense. (I think I saw some blood??)

Anyhow, now I'm curious and I'd love if anyone could tell me the manga chapter for next episode.

Manyuda is a bit of an ass with his superiority complex and what not, but he's doesn't seem as much of an ass as some of the other characters in the series. i actually kind of like him, maybe he'll reevaluate himself a bit after this upcoming L he's probably going to take.

This ended on a part of chapter 25 (basically halfway through), and is continuing from there.

I just noticed, but they skipped something that I hope gets adapted later on and won't be skipped like how they did with a part of Yumemi's. They also are basically censoring all middle-finger indication. lol

Too much backstory chatter, not enough gambling. Manyuda is certainly a more interesting gambling opponent though. But of course Yumeko is just going to wipe the floor with him next episode...right?

Understandable, but it'd still add a bit of extra depth for him. Shows his determination more of being the president. Pretty much the same for Yumemi in how strongly she wanted to reach her goal if they hadn't skipped that extra bit of hers.

Can understand the gripe, but this sort of thing is how it usually goes in gambling anime/manga, or at least as far as I remember.

I do love just how faithfully this series has been adapted thus far, Manyuda makes for a very intimidating analytical opponent. Itsuki's involvement in the game and seeing her connection with Manyuda just sweetened the pot, so to speak. Can't wait to see the conclusion of the game, it's going to be so good!

Looking at the episode count however, I'm a bit unsure as to how they're going to cap off this season. I was under the impression that they'd leave it at the next game's conclusion before I started watching the series, but not that we only have two episodes left I wonder if there's really time for that? Should be interesting to see how they handle it.

PS: Vice President having a voice synthesizer was the only sensible way to voice the character. All shall be revealed soon.

The soundtrack to this series is amazing.

This is still one of my top 3 favorite series this season, but every time they move the focus away from Jabami it gets a little weaker.

I liked this episode. Idk where this gambling is gonna go, but I'm having a feeling it'll take a wild turn then Jabami will win (as always). Haha.

Ugh. I really wanna see Jabami and the President to fight each other. Gaaah. Can't wait!

I know Kaede's a massive asshole, but I like him. Waah. He's cute. Hahaha.

Miyukichi's the one voicing the Vice President. Fuck fuck fuck. I love Miyukichi so much. I can't believe she's voicing two of the Kakegurui characters. Damn, girl. Slay me! Haha!

This, finally a clean simple game,really enjoyed this episode. If only the other games would have been same(too much bullshit, too much cheating boring), the series could have been more enjoyable.
