Yumeko (played by Miku Martineau) arrives at the prestigious Hyakkaou Private Academy, an elite institution where students’ status, influence, and future prospects are determined not by academic performance, but by their skill and success in high-stakes gambling. Here, fame, fortune, and power await those who can dominate the ruthless hierarchy, and utter ruin lies in store for those who fail.
The trailer offers a first glimpse into the highly anticipated live-action series adaptation of Kakegurui – Compulsive Gambler , the acclaimed Japanese manga created by Homura Kawamoto and illustrated by Toru Naomura, promising to bring the intense, high-stakes world of compulsive gambling to life for a new audience.
“My name is Yumeko. And I’ve been bad. But sometimes, you have to do a bad thing to make the world better. This should be fun,” the lead actress is heard saying in the trailer.
The song playing in the trailer is ”Venom Perfected” by Lee Richardson, Tom Ford, James Cocozza, Jonathan Murrill, and Cleva Thoughts, released in 2021.
The track was featured in the Netflix film Dangerous Liaisons.
Venom Perfected is available for purchase on Amazon as MP3 ($0.89) and for unlimited streaming.
