Kakeguri takes the concept of compulsive gambling to a completely different level. For someone suffering from a gambling disorder, the chance of risking it all for a greater reward is what hooks them in.
However, the stakes are much higher for the students at Hyakkaou Private Academy, where the entire curriculum is dedicated to gambling.
The entire school’s social structure depended on each student’s gambling cred. So when a wolf in sheep’s clothing, Yumeko Jabami, comes along, the entire house of cards is set to collapse!
The upcoming second live-action movie, Kakegurui: Last Resort Russian Roulette, has just released a 4-minute extended trailer, showing the academy’s grotesque caste system falling apart! The movie was initially set to release on April 29, 2021, but got indefinitely postponed.
In the extended video, we see the student council struggling under threat brought on by Yumeko Jabami, as they are swarmed on every front by “Livestock” students who can’t pay the upper payment.

The day will come when the student council president will look like this! I’m kneeling with a Mike tag. Actually, the specifications of the chain have changed from this familiar Pochimike tag, the previous work, and the previous work. It is a certain action in the alternating ceremony that you can see it. Please take care.

About Kakegurui
Kakegurui is an anime based on a manga of the same name written by Homura Kawamoto and illustrated by Toru Naomura. It is directed by Yuichiro Hayashi and is animated by MAPPA.
Hyakkaou Private Academy, a regular school for ultra-rich kids by day and a grotesque gambling den by night, has an inbuilt social hierarchy.
Based on how one performs in gambling and manipulating their peers, students are ranked best to worst, the top rankers being the most powerful.
Yumeko Jabami, a transfer student who gambles just for the thrill of it, becomes the new challenger and the talk of the Hyakkaou’s elite student council.
Her insane love for gambling presents her with new challenges as she climbs her way to the top.
