Info

Hyakkaou Private Academy. An institution for the privileged with a very peculiar curriculum. You see, when you're the sons and daughters of the wealthiest of the wealthy, it's not athletic prowess or book smarts that keep you ahead. It's reading your opponent, the art of the deal. What better way to hone those skills than with a rigorous curriculum of gambling? At Hyakkaou Private Academy, the winners live like kings, and the losers are put through the wringer. But when Yumeko Jabami enrolls, she's gonna teach these kids what a high roller really looks like!

Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
DCfan I can't believe I wasted so much time on this piece. I have watch so many animes but I have never came across anything as psycho as this. This show is about some school where they do gambling and if one person they become house pets. Seriously?? Until a girl called Yumiko join and things start to change.The only goods are the voice actors for the dub, the animation and the sexy looking protagonist with the most fit body I have seen in anime history.Honestly, if you want to try this anime or are going to watch it more power to you. If you like this anime I respect your opinion but honestly, I would recommend skipping as there are better animes out especially if you enjoy murder mysteries go check out Erased (see my review) or better yet Persona 4: The Animation (review coming soon) that anime will always be better than this one in all possible ways. As the person above me mentions if this is you first anime don't let it scare there are plenty of better ones out there.The plot is so berserk, the characters come off as unlikable or just plain crazy but at least the designs are good especially every cute and sexy female characters bodies and details, and the overall execution of the show is just poor and an excuse for silliness. The end was just badThe worst part is this show is getting a second season, I won't be watching that anytime soon. I might even stay away from the English Dub of Yo Kai Watch for a bit because I know that Erika Haralacer (sorry i don't remember her last time) the voice for Hailey Anne, Griffin Burns the voice for Nate Adams and Kira Buckland the voice of Jibanyan all voiced their time on this show as the main characters.Sorry I went off topic there but as a whole this show is just awful, I would never watch this anime ever again, I just hope season 2 is the last season of this travisty. Honestly, watch this show just feels like a nightmare and writing this review just makes me feel like I have woken up from that horror.
Mauricio Villarino Okay. So let's get straight into it. This anime is not normal. it's not supposed to be. You can't expect an anime about a woman who finds risk exciting, to be rational (at least most people shouldn't). It's all about the madness of the characters as they struggle on high stake gambling, just for the thrills of it. Money really doesn't matter to most of them. That being said, I don't really get why some people criticise the anime for its crazy moments, when that's one of the reasons its so much fun. I mean, given my last point, you should've expected it'd be like that. If you didn't find all that madness appealing, you shouldn't have watched it in the first place. I read a little about the irrationality of the charachters and the show's overall madness before watching it, and got instantly thrilled by it. I watched it afterwards, and didn't regret it at all. So, my point is, that it's not for everyone. But that doesn't mean you should hate on it because it's not your kind of show. Just skip it. On the other hand, if you're like me and find madness and unpredictable characters appealing, definitely give it a try. It'll be a fun watch.
runep-09838 Wow. Just, wow. I've watched my healthy amount of anime over the years, and there are some good ones out there.. Unfortunately, this is not one of them. The first thing that struck my mind was the awful dialogue. I started out watching it with English audio, but I thought that maybe those responsible for the translation had done a bad job with it, but no, it's bad in Japanese also.The plot is so simplistic, and it's pretty obvious they try to captivate the viewers with the classic POWER-SHOTS of faces etc. which many other anime-series pull off, but not this one. Not by a long-shot. The show comes of as pretentious and lame, with not much story to back it up. If this is the first anime-series you watch, don't let this scare you away from anime as a whole, because there are lot's of good ones out there.
marinospolitis There is almost always a problem with anime that are manga adaptations. If the number of episodes is set and limited (13 most of the time like this one), they have to quicken the pace and make do with a made-up ending that is rushed, unconclusive and unsatisfactory. Kakegurui is a gamble anime. There aren't many out there, it kinda reminded me of Death Billards. The games were mostly interesting, the premise was not incedibly unique but was interesting, the main character (the female) was REALLY interesting... so what could have gone wrong?The villains. There is no proper hero without a villain. The villains hd no certain personality traits, were unlikable scums, with no real motive or a background story that we could actually care for. The side characters too, boring and monotonous. "Spoiler warning", I remember a specific game towards the end, where the villain tried to win only by using more and more money, without putting any real thought or effort. Booooriiing...Add this to the awful ending, and there you have it, a potentionally good anime, just turned mediocre.
