About Kakegurui: Compulsive Gambler

If you are hunting for a new school series, Kakegurui: Compulsive Gambler (Kakegurui) deserves a look (2017). The setup goes like this. In short: Unlike many schools, attending Hyakkaou Private Academy prepares pupils for their time in the real world. Since many of the learners are the children of the richest people in the realm, the academy has its quirks that separate it from all the others.

Another thread: By day, it is a normal school, educating its pupils in history, languages, and the like. At night, it turns into a gambling den, educating them in the art of dealing with money and manipulating people. Money is power; those who come out on top in the games stand at the top of the school.

With school at the core, campus dynamics, friendships and rivalries set the day-to-day tone. If you count yourself among viewers who enjoy school-life settings, put it on your list.
