When Netflix initially began its bigger push into anime licensing, production, and distribution, one of the key series is started off with was the strangely enthralling Kakegurui - Compulsive Gambler. Mixing its school setting, card games, gallows humor, and sensual imagery, the series quickly gained a lot of traction from fans with its first season last year and fans have been waiting a long time for the second.

If you want to see what this cult favorite is all about, Kakegurui - Compulsive Gambler's two seasons are now available to stream on Netflix in the United States and are described as such:

"Hyakkaou Private Academy. An institution for the privileged with a very peculiar curriculum. You see, when you're the sons and daughters of the wealthiest of the wealthy, it's not athletic prowess or book smarts that keep you ahead. It's reading your opponent, the art of the deal. What better way to hone those skills than with a rigorous curriculum of gambling? At Hyakkaou Private Academy, the winners live like kings, and the losers are put through the wringer. But when Yumeko Jabami enrolls, she's gonna teach these kids what a high roller really looks like!"
