Kakegurui (賭ケグルイ)

Hyakkaou Private Academy.

These school halls are traversed by the offspring of the nation's elites.

COUNCIL SECRETARY

This article is no good!

PRESS CLUB

Sorry, ma'am.

Firstly, this survey about gambling.

"Gambled this week."

How many said yes?

-Ninety-two percent. -Yep.

Could a student at this school get by without gambling?

Our students will become this country's leaders.

Gambling is what teaches them

vital skills: intelligence

insight, fiscal clout...

-Mind if I record this? -No way!

-So, "almost one-hundred percent"... -Furthermore.

Emphasize that the Council has recorded its highest ever income.

Yes ma'am.

Here at Hyakkaou Academy...

This is our golden age.

This is all thanks to...

The radical reform of the school system by the honored President, Kirari Momobami.

I'll skip the "honored" bit.

Also!

Add in a warning for noncompliant students.

Noncompliant students who contribute too little

will be named "Doggy" if male, and "Kitty" if female...

And will lose their rights within school grounds.

I wonder, would "house pets" be a better term?

Let's see, "house pets"?

We've got some nice pets, haven't we?

Yumeko Jabami...

JUST WHO IS JABAMI?

What on earth is this?

BLOSSOM CLASS, 2ND YEAR

Yumeko Jabami.

Wins a ten-million bet shortly after joining the school.

What a debut.

Then, before long...

She eats up the Student Council. Piece by piece.

By piece, by piece.

Nishinotoin...

She hasn't lost.

-She won! -Sure.

That debt-shuffling meeting

organized by the Student Council.

Now there are rumors that the Council is deep in debt.

-Is that true? -No com...

-Midari, from the Beautification Club. -What?

I interviewed her, and...

Oh, Yumeko!

That fool.

Why not admit it already?

The Student Council's losing its grip on power...

Thanks to Yumeko Jabami.

The pen is mightier than the sword.

COUNCIL PRESIDENT

Is that it?

My, my.

President...

When did you...

You...

A funny one.

Unfortunately, though...

At this school...

Mightier than the pen and the sword

is a gambling victory.

If it falls towards you, you win.

If it falls towards me, I win.

President!

And if I win...

I can write what I like?

Anything. You can do anything you like.

If you win, it's all yours.

If you lose, it's all gone.

Now, then.

I can't stand it!

BLOSSOM CLASS

What's up with you?

Hey...

You!

You!

And you, you!

And the press! Are you the Council's...

BLOSSOM CLASS

Servants? Pawns? Dogs?

Bloody idiots!

Mornin' Yumeko!

Good morning, Suzui.

Your tie is crooked.

Mary. Here.

Is this yours? Trash goes in the trash can.

What's up with her?

She's not getting enough.

As in, not enough gambling.

Suzui! Why doesn't the cafeteria have any nice desserts?

And Mary!

Why do we have to go to gym class today?

What is this? You're not gambling enough!

Oh, my...

Just when will I get to gamble with the Council President?

She said it!

That's all for our regular notices.

Alright, then.

And Yumeko Jabami?

ACCOUNTANT

COUNCILLOR

YURIKO NISHINOTOIN

VICE PRESIDENT

Yumeko's bloody great!

Her courage, her insight...

MIDARI IKISHIMA

Her faith in her comrades!

She's got everything you need!

And those eyes of hers...

Just thinking about it

makes me...

I can't stand listening to a freak babble on.

Oh, Manny.

Give it a try some time!

It'll drive you wild.

There may be some truth in her words.

Yumeko Jabami is a pet.

And for that very reason...

Should be feared.

She's aiming for a public match.

Public matches are the one right granted to pets.

The challenged cannot refuse.

If she exercised that right on the President...

Lose and you become a pet.

No exceptions, even for the President!

We can't let that happen.

We can't let Jabami have it her way!

Well, then.

Yumeko Jabami's next challenger will be...

Who, I wonder?

Yumemi Yumemite...

How about her?

I'm back, everyone!

YUMEMI YUMEMITE

Welcome back!

Yumemi, always smiling! Our goddess, our angel...

Our sacred Bodhisattva!

You can bet our lives.

Yumemi, they're yours!

Yumemi, we love you!

Yumemi, hold me fast!

Oh, Yumemi!

Fairest of them all!

You're our pearl, Yumemi!

Yumemi, love slayer!

What's happening, Suzui?

Ah, it's today...

I knew it...

You're a fan!

I'm not!

I wouldn't qualify.

I mean, even members of the fan club can barely get hold of tickets...

So I've never even been to a concert...

You're a fan, aren't you?

I'm not a fan!

But she's so great at meeting fans and...

What?

Gym class.

Is it?

Seems moody.

EX-COUNCILLOR

Not today, then.

See you next time!

Oh, Shinnoji!

You were in the front row again.

FAN CLUB HEAD

Of course! I'm the Head! Tremendous concert, as always.

My timing was a little off during Gambling Girl.

-Next time I'll be thoroughly... -Time's up!

You're fucking creepy, you pig!

Goddamn!

Damn! Stupid pig!

Creepy, ugly fucker!

Prancing about, drenched in sweat!

Stop coming after me with those clammy fat fingers!
