The story takes place at Hyakkaou Private Academy, attended by the children of powerful figures in politics and business. There, students' social standing is determined by their skill at gambling. Winners become rulers, while losers become slaves. One day, a mysterious girl named Yumeko Jabami transfers to the academy. At first glance, she appears to be a pure and beautiful girl, but she is a "gambling addict" who finds pleasure in taking risks. (Source: Japanese = kakegurui.jp || Translation = MyDramaList) ~~ Adapted from the manga series "Kakegurui" (賭ケグルイ) written by Kawamoto Homura (河本ほむら) and illustrated by Naomura Tooru (尚村透).

As someone who watched the anime earlier this year, I really enjoyed the drama version. This series is fairly similar to the anime, a good amount of the battles and everything ring pretty true. One major difference is which battles they show. The drama doesn't get to all of the gambling matches that the anime does, but I have high hopes that they'll be featured in season two. The actors are really great, and in my opinion, fit their characters pretty well. Their acting is a bit over dramatic, but what can you really expect when you have such insane characters? Plus the way they behave can be quite funny at times, so much so that I found myself laughing uncontrollably XD Overall this drama is pretty good, and very entertaining. I highly recommend it!

If you are going to watch this, be prepared for the overacting. I didn't mind it because it was obviously an intentional choice and ALL the roles are overacted. I've never watched the anime or read the manga, so I can not say how true it holds to the source material. However, the games are enjoyable (and so are the methods of cheating). It is satisfying to watch the heroine outsmart her challengers. I hope they do a season 2 so that I can see how it all ends. As it is, it ends rather abruptly and without answering many of the questions it raises.
