Kakegurui – Plot
Hyakkaou Private Academy houses the most wealthy and privileged students of Japan, with many future leaders and professionals graduating from the school.
In this school, the student hierarchy is determined by a series of games in which students bet their fortunes against one-another, and those in debt become slaves to the whims of those who hold their money.
One day, a new student appears, one who gambles for the thrill of it, who actively begins to disrupt the hierarchy of the school while the student council tries to find ways to shut her down.
Yumeko Jabami
The main character of Kakegurui, Yumeko is a new transfer student at Hyakkaō Academy who shakes things up by engaging in an increasingly risky series of gambles that put herself and her money on the line.
Rather than aiming for the victory, Yumeko gets a thrill out of the mere act of gambling. She quickly figures out ways that the games are being manipulated in her opponent’s’ favor and she can more often than not turn the tables on her foes.
