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.

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.

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.

I hate shows like this. What I love about mystery is being surprised by a smart mystery's solution after not being able to figure it out by myself.But this show is what I call biased mystery. It focuses on supposedly curious mysteries, for example, how someone is able to cheat in a card game in a seemingly impossible way, and the characters are able to figure the mystery out in a way that is supposed to impress and surprise us, but the viewer doesn't actually get to see all the evidence, so all the thinking is left to the character, meaning the solution doesn't have to make sense at all and can be anything the writers wanted it to be, and the only reason it's surprising is because you weren't shown all the evidence rather than being smart or unexpected.This is just painful to watch and not curious at all. Go watch real mystery, save your time and skip this garbage.
