Aramide Tinubu Variety May 15
Despite its unique setting, “Bet” is repetitive and grows increasingly wearisome, offering nothing new to the “Kakegurui” fandom. Go to Full Review Ridge Harripersad CGMagazine Jul 30
7/10
Bet delivers a great take on the Kakegurui world. The fandom might be torn on how Yumeko is a bit more humanized in this iteration, but it also adds depth to her character. Go to Full Review Chris Joyce Movies and Munchies (YouTube) May 30
3.5/5
As someone who’s not hugely into anime or manga, I found myself hooked on the show despite the colossal plot conveniences and the absurd situations the students created. Go to Full Review Danae Stahlnecker Common Sense Media May 27
This teen psychological thriller could say some interesting things about class, wealth, and power, but it doesn't quite get there. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider May 15
There’s nothing wrong with being a stylish show, but Bet‘s concentration on style overwhelms any kind of substance, making the show a chore to watch over a 10-episode season. Go to Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut May 15
3.5/5
It’s a show that takes some fairly big swings and not all of it works, but I mostly loved it and I suspect most people who aren’t worried about the accuracy of the costumes will too. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Grom D @Emma0907 Jan 17 So entertaining! Can’t wait for season 2 See more WJ L @WEIRDKID Jan 14 I went into this show with zero expectations and was actually surprised that I liked it. Even though I am a little bummed that season 3 still hasn't been given to us. I am to consume any kakegurui related content. The story was interesting. The characters were all pretty fun and entertaining. See more Love A Sep 18 After you make it past the first episode you will be addicted!!!!!!!! This show was crazy good 😍 Can’t wait for season 2!!

The aesthetic is on point and it keeps you on your feet. I fell in love with the show. See more mini m Aug 1 Bet isn't typically the type of show I'd usually watch, so when I first started watching it I wasn't really getting into it but I stuck through it regardless because there was something intriguing about it. I watched the entire show in a day, and unfortunately there were only 10 episodes which were about 30 minutes long. I am now obsessed! Within the first week of discovering the show I'd binged it 5 times. I can't bring myself to watch anything else at the moment because my mind is stuck on this show just needing to know what happens next. My entire tik Tok and instagram feed is now completely vides, edits, and posts on the show. The actors did an absolutely incredible job at bringing this show to life as well as portraying each of their characters with such care and depth, and for creating this entirely new adaption as it's own while still linking aspects here and there to the anime. However, I completely love that it's its own and it's fresh and not completely the same. Casting and directing was fantastic!!! I definitely recommend everyone to binge this addictive show.
