Story:
To summarise, there's a school where the only form of education is gambling and the only kids there are filthy rich. In this school there's a very simple hierarchy; house pets, students, student council members and finally the student council leader. House pets are student that are in debt from gambling and the students are encouraged to treat them as dogs and filth, the students are like the everyday man they could move up the ranks or fall to house pet status, student council are the ones running things in the school (ahem kill la kill) and are top gamblers. Its defiantly a unique premise for an anime and a welcome one at that, and while there is defiantly better gambling anime out there this is by far the most unique one. The Story follows Yumeko Jibami who definitely doesn't get wet over gambling at all... as she fights her way all the way to the top to defeat the student council. This part of the story is meh, but it is what it is.

Characters:
Most of the characters in this anime are female with the odd exception here and there, this isn't a bad thing, but it would have been nice if some more of the guys where important like the two guys on the student council. Luckily this isn't a bit deterrent being the horny ass individual I am and in fairness the characters are really well written with Yumeko's mystery, Mary's backstory in the prequel called kakegurui twin and the guy I can't remember the name of for my life essentially being a toy for yumeko (mommy). The mains are likable and fun and the student council acts as a great villain and shows just how much power they hold over the students, the dynamic between characters are fantastic and it gives the feeling that the mains actually have a proper end goal that makes actual sense and has some severity behind it. There are a few characters that are a tad over the top like the girl that constantly has a gun and who's whole personality is that she's crazy. Overall, not a bad cast but if you dislike fan Servies you 100% will not enjoy the cast.

Op/audio/VA's:
This is a MAPPA anime its bound to have a banger soundtrack and ops, and low and behold in this anime it only delivers in the op category. The Ost is possibly the most forgettable thing ever, normally i can remember at least one song from a Ost but i do not remember a single track here which is disappointing. The Voice actors could be better (in the sub because who watches dub), but most characters voice actors do match their characters for the most part. Some of the student council members have the worst voices ever known to man, however. You know that one annoying ass woman who voices every Loli in every comedy anime? it's like listening to her every time the student council is on the screen. The op is really good however, it completely matches the craziness of the world they set up with the lesbian innuendoes and absurdness that the premise of the show is. The track for the op is fantastic and is extremely fitting for the show as a whole. I could go on forever about it but i need to wrap this up so overview time!
