5 Things Netflix Did Wrong With Bet, Kakegurui’s Live Action Adaptation
Netflix’s streak of releasing new live-action projects has become quite prominent ever since it achieved success with the One Piece live-action. The most recent addition to the live-action list of the streaming platform is Bet, a TV series based on the popular Japanese gambling psychological thriller manga and anime series Kakegurui by Homura Kawamoto.
The series is one of the most popular Shonen stories that has a huge fan following, and it focuses on the journey of Yumeko Jabami, a transfer student who indulges in gambling at Hyakkaou Private Academy. However, she has a secret motive behind her actions, which drives her character development and the plot within the series.
Bet follows the same premise, but the TV series is not as enticing as the original manga and anime. There are many other aspects that the recently released show couldn’t capture, and thus it might not be the one for Kakegurui fans.
