Mixed Feelings
"Money won is twice as sweet as money earned"

I feel as if there needs to be more Gambling related anime that perform better than Kakegurui ever did.

That being said, I don't think that this anime was very poorly executed, I just think that it missed base on a lot of specific areas.

Story: The story could have been more gripping and interesting, but in the long run I feel like it really amounted to nothing and that the ending didn't really mean much of anything, but in this pseudo-slice of life, I guess there's not much I could be expecting.

Art: Was for the most part pretty well done. I think they used a lot of very interesting and captivating graphics and animations that draw you in, but at the same time they had a lot of very uncomfortable facial expressions that just absolutely ruined it for me. I know this is the biggest meme about the anime but it is so unbearable having to cringe through those faces and seeing them be engraved into the viewers mind over and over again.

Sound: Was very typical as to most anime. I actually thoroughly enjoyed the OST which is what made me slide it to a 6 for sound design, but other than that, nothing to brag about

Characters: A lot of them are pretty unbearable. Just a bunch of rich kids who act like they're better than everyone else because they have the money to do so. Looking down on people is never a trope I care to watch in any show let alone anime. I enjoyed Jabami as a shtick of just enjoying the thrill of the gamble, but alot of that tends to drown out when you realize they just sexualize the hell out of her desire to gamble.

Overall: This anime could have been much much better. I like the concept of gambling anime but this, for lack of better words, is just not something that has life behind face value
