S3 LOSERS ROUND 1

NOTE: Though there are significant canonically gay characters in the supporting cast and a lot of homoerotic imagery and subtext, Kakegurui is not a yuri. It contains fanservice and sexual reference and depictions of problem gambling, dehumanisation and bloody violence, including trauma to the eyes and fingernails. To Die in June uses the aesthetics of Japanese imperialism at times, and depicts war, death, and misogyny, as well as having some sexual content.

The illustrator's NOT so subtle *ehem* shipping *ehem*

Of course Yumeko knows what Kirari's really up to. They kind of understand each other?

and then,

This is the next page, with Yumeko's wish revealed through the quote-- that is literally beside Mary. They're basically pointing out that Yumeko is referring to someone like Mary or to be more specific, Mary herself.

In Kakegurui Futago, Mary knew that she had to take on risks because that's what it takes to be a winner. No matter how much the stakes are against her, Mary still managed to turn things around many times. When she actually got beaten down she used any means to get back up again, and she did rised up and became better.

All in all what they're trying to say is Mary and Yumeko are so COMPATIBLE. The mangaka obviously ships them.

El Manga Kakegurui obtiene su propia serie spinoff de comedia.

El spinoff es publicado junto con la serie original en la revista Gangan Joker. 

La edición de enero de la revista Gangan Joker de Square Enix publicó el pasado 22 de diciembre los primeros dos capítulos del Manga Kakegurui (Kakkokari) de Taku Kawamura (imagen de arriba). La nueva serie es un spinoff yonkoma de comedia inspirada en el Manga Kakegurui de Homura Kawamoto y Tooru Naomura.

El spinoff cuenta con los personajes principales de la serie original, incluyendo a Yumeko, Meari y Ryota. La serie original también inspiró el Manga spinoff aun en publicación de Kakegurui Twin por Kei Saiki, que fue lanzado en la revista Gangan Joker en septiembre de 2015 y cuenta la historia de Meari un año antes de que Yumeko se transfiera a la Academia Privada Hyakkaou. 

El Manga original de Kakegurui fue lanzado en la revista Gangan Joker en marzo del 2014. Square Enix pondrá a la venta el sexto tomo recopilatorio de la serie el 22 de febrero.  

La Academia Privada Hyakkaou. Una institución para los privilegiados con un plan de estudios muy peculiar. En esta escuela no son las proezas atléticas o la inteligencia lo que hace notar a los alumnos. Es la lectura de su oponente, y el arte de negociar. ¿Qué mejor manera de perfeccionar estas habilidades que con un plan de estudio riguroso con juegos de azar? En la Academia Privada Hyakkaou, los ganadores viven como reyes, y los perdedores son dejados a un lado. Pero cuando Yumeko Jabami se matricula en la escuela, ¡ella le va a enseñar a estos niños lo que es un gran apostador de verdad!

KNOCKOUTS: Kakegurui (2014 - ?)

Kakegurui is an ongoing psychological series written by Homura Kawamoto and illustrated by Tooru Naomura about a school that runs on games of chance.

Hyakkaou Private Academy. An institution for the privileged with a very peculiar curriculum. You see, when you're the sons and daughters of the wealthiest of the wealthy, it's not athletic prowess or book smarts that keep you ahead. It's reading your opponent-the art of the deal. What better way to hone those skills than with a rigorous curriculum of gambling? At Hyakkaou Private Academy, the winners live like kings, and the losers are put through the wringer. But when Yumeko Jabami enrolls, she's gonna teach these kids what a high roller really looks like! - AniList

Original JP available on Book Walker & ENG published by Yen Press.

CWs under the cut. General severity rating: mod to major.

not strictly yuri <- there are canon lesbians, an overwhelming femslash majority on ao3, and an undeniable homoerotic pull himejoshis are sure to enjoy, but only a small portion of homoeroticism is texually romantic. it's a shounen with yuri flavour.

sexual content <- kakegurui has ecchi elements, and you get the typical sexual framing that comes with that, including frequent pantyshots. no sex happens but there is obvious arousal and non-explicit masturbation.

dehumanisation <- the only way i can think to word this. people in heavy debt are treated as "housepets," less than human. this results in bullying, harassment and controlling their lives after graduation. the bullying extends to hitting and forcibly cutting hair; harassment includes forcing a girl to strip and threatening rape (both in ch5); control extends to essentially selling people's lives and arranged marriages.

forced sex work(???) <- not totally sure how to categorise this but i think it needs a heads up. references throughout to, in conjunction with above and in the same vein as arranged marriages, making women have sex for political or social gain. never shown or described in detail, but it is a looming threat.

worth mentioning; while the housepet and life plan stuff comes up every now and again, its not as frequent or as dire later on as it is in the early chapters. the recurring cast are, generally speaking, nicer as the series finds its footing.

problem gambling & financial distress <- most characters are obscenely rich so impact of gambling addiction is lessened, though it is a bit glamourised.

violence <- typically in the case if going to drastic measures in gambling, like breaking a finger to win or risking chopping a finger off. includes trauma to the eyes and fingernails. bloody, but not excessively. not graphic, and not especially frequent.

suicidality & attempted suicide <- punishment for one gamble involves jumping from a height (ch33), and presumably to death. ch68, someone threatens to kill herself to make her opponent fold. also, presentation is crazy enough that it doesnt feel like it would be especially triggering (imo) but one character is very fixated on her own death, particularly in regards to getting shot.

internalised racism <- ch19, a child is told to give up on her dream because a japanese person couldnt do it

vomitting <- scene in ch57. not super detailed but icky enough that i baulked at it a bit, and im not usually bothered by it.

after binge reading kakegurui i noticed something with the faces and BAM BAM BAM hi hello it’s VERYYYYY FAMILIAR 

LIKE THE VERY EXPRESSIVE FACES
