Kakegurui 2: Desperate Russian Roulette

Kakegurui 2: Desperate Russian Roulette (2021) is a Japanese thriller you can watch online on iFILM — the sequel to the live-action take on the hit gambling manga.

At elite Hyakkou Academy grades mean nothing; rank is won at the card table. Winners rule, losers are reduced to "pets" with no rights. Yumeko Jabami, played by Minami Hamabe, throws herself into the deadliest games with a thrill that unnerves every opponent. This time the wager is life itself — a revolver and a single round sitting on the table.

It keeps the manga's acid colors and unhinged close-ups, carried over from the series adapted from Homura Kawamoto's comic. One for anime fans and anyone who likes a bet that curdles into a psychological duel. Stream Kakegurui 2 online on iFILM.
