RE: Netflixing: Kakegurui

in #tv6 years ago

Another wonderful and interesting tv series review by @talanhorne sir...
Kakegurui.....At Hyakkaou Private Academy, a school for the rich, gambling is everything. A caste system separates the high rollers from the impoverished masses, and when bourgeois Suzui loses a game of poker, he drops to the lowest ranks of the school hierarchy and ends up as the personal slave of his opponent, Mary Saotome. All that changes when he meets Yumeko Jabami, a beautiful transfer student. On the surface she’s mild-mannered and friendly, but roll a die or draw a card and Yumeko transforms into a compulsive gambler (a kakegurui) with an insane grin and a sadomasochistic delight in putting life, limb, and mutilation on the line. Dragged along by Yumeko’s risk-taking obsession, Suzui can only watch in awe as she plays games with names like “Voting Rock Paper Scissors,” “Double Memory,” and “Life or Death” against ever more sadistic opponents, with millions of dollars riding on each game!
