Aramide Tinubu Variety Despite its unique setting, “Bet” is repetitive and grows increasingly wearisome, offering nothing new to the “Kakegurui” fandom. May 15, 2025 Full Review Chris Joyce Movies and Munchies (YouTube) 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. Rated: 3.5/5 May 30, 2025 Full Review Danae Stahlnecker Common Sense Media This teen psychological thriller could say some interesting things about class, wealth, and power, but it doesn't quite get there. May 27, 2025 Full Review Joel Keller Decider 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. May 15, 2025 Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut 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. Rated: 3.5/5 May 15, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Eleanor S This is such a good show there needs to be a second season Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/16/25 Full Review Taryn R i love the anime so getting it a different light DEFINITELY grips my attention. i loved the twist with the parents and the partnering up with kira. i do find the parents the most interesting and i love that we got info on the parents. but mostly i loved the old gambling games in the kakeguri hidden club from the og anime. it was brilliant i loved it!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Peter M An inspired version of the anime Kakegurui, Bet is a great and enjoyable show, with great story and great acting. I watched this first without knowing anything about some of the original anime, but when I watched the original anime after Bet, I pretty much enjoyed both, the show is meant to be an inspired version of the original not a live action, having some elements here and their from the original. It's a pretty good series and I recommend to give it a watch. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/13/25 Full Review Audience Member Most of the low reviews I see are viewers comparing it to the anime. Yes it's inspired by kakegurui, but its not meant to follow the same plot. Some reviews say that it "butchered" the anime; however, its a loose adaptation. It features the same characters, but alters parts of them and the story. It is not based on kakegurui so yes, it will be different and add details that were not originally in the anime. Please stop hating on it because it's not the same😭 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/10/25 Full Review Karthik S One of the best TV series in 2025, so cute and enjoyable story, Miku Martineau acting so awesome and she is so pretty too.. i love her..💓😘 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/10/25 Full Review Audience Member This is the strangest, gayest show I’ve watched this year, give me 10 seasons right now Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/08/25 Full Review Read all reviews
