Initially being a manga by Homura Kawamoto, now a live-action movie series, Kakegurui adapts the bold aesthetic to each platform pretty well.

The official website for Kakegurui live-action streamed a teaser video for Eiga Kakegurui Part 2, the film's sequel. The film premieres in May 2021.

The teaser only introduces us to the new shrewd gambler Makuro Shikigami, played by Ryūsei Fujii. The video ends with Yumeko held at gunpoint.

The upcoming film is expected to add new elements to the original story and even surpass its prequel in popularity.

Apart from this film, Katsura Saiki’s Kakegurui Twins manga spinoff is inspiring a new live-action series that will premiere this year.
