Kakegurui synopsis
The Hyakkaou Private Academy is a school for the privileged and influential that welcomes the children of business people and politicians. Unlike other schools, however, Hyakkaou’s students do not take pride in their academic achievements. Instead, they value strategic skill and the ability to read people. As night falls, many on campus venues transform into gambling centers overseen by the Student Council, where gamblers battle for rank, money, and more.
Ryouta Suzui spends his days as a “pet,” a student in the bottom hundred who is forced to serve his peers. Her circumstances soon change when a mysterious transfer student, Yumeko Jabami, arrives at the academy. Despite Suzui’s warnings, Yumeko quickly dives into the school game scene and faces various high-profile opponents. His actions caught the attention of the members of the student council who interfered in his affairs. Suzui tries her best to keep Yumeko out of trouble, but, to her chagrin, turns out to be the most suitable person to help Hyakkaou: a compulsive gambler.
