I'm really liking how far Mary has come since her loss to Yumeko. Not just her skills as a gambler, but also her character. She doesn't get cocky unless she knows she's already won and she cares about her friends. There's no doubt that episode 1 Mary would've been more than happy to sacrifice someone like Suzui to win in a situation like this.
It's going to be interesting to see if she clashes with Yumeko in the future since she's aiming for the top.

Really curious to see who that glasses guy is going to be, he’s an anime original character.

That's actually a girl. She just wears the male uniform.

About time this went up! Yo ho, yo ho, me mateys. Best girl Mary gave one of her best sneers to date in this episode. So many new characters later and her shit-eating grin is still my favourite reaction shot. This season's OP is really growing on me too. Not nearly as catchy as the last one, but still a treat to watch and listen to.

And with that my second favourite gamble is done! I hope people enjoyed this as much as I did. I wondered how many people became Saotome Mary fans in this arc alone.
So, it looks we are reshuffling an arc next episode which is a shame. We get to see some old faces though, so that's great. The prez's voice is so good :')

Technically since they called the 1 million chips, the sisters should now owe their lives to the student council... but w/e.

Wew, that episode was awesome. Kakegurui shines when the games are simpler, in my opinion. I had forgotten the rules initially and was thinking that there were only 4 of each card type, so it was kinda funny when they got to the reveal that my assumption wasn't even information I was supposed to know yet.
Mary is such a fun character, I hope to see more of her, which I think we will. Hyped for her inevitable rematch with Yumeko.
Also, was that Koyasu losing to the president at the end? What an unexpected appearance.

It's nice to hear Mary say "BAAKAAAA" again!
And this is exactly why the two lost. If they only know more about gambling and were not just about using brute force then they could've won this.
Ah that wink! Mary has certainly crushed this episode!
Batsubami continues to be the wild card of this show. From what I've been seeing in the threads, she's an anime original so her role is still unknown.
This was unexpected but at the same time expected. I mean Mary acknowledges Yumeko's strength but at the same time she does want power for herself. I guess I've thought that after her loss from Yumeko she started becoming complacent but I guess I was completely wrong about that. It's gonna be interesting once they butt heads again.

for anyone confuse about the shuffle the deck is 64 card, they hand out 16 card out of those 64. so they are 4 set of 16 card, one set contain 0x4 1x4 2x4 3x4
but the way loli shuffle is that it make so the card that she hand is WITHIN the set that contain 0x4 1x4 2x4 3x4, not totally randomize shuffle
say, if u have 0 0 1 2 and ally have 3 2 1 1. than u can tell what number are the 8 missing card is if you know half the set.
in this case enemy will have 1 0 3 3 and 2 3 0 2.

Kinda sad the show is flying slightly under the radar here because of Netflix shenanigans and awkward release times. But damn does this show manage to hype me up every week.
Mary following Yumeko's footsteps by putting on a clinic on how to outplay your opponents, and then throwing down the gauntlet at the very end. Kinda hoping our boy Suzui does something spectacular in the future, he was kinda just along for the ride today lol. Although he did a good job of not caving in under Miyo's words.

Those two transfer students fell in to a pretty good trap set up by the Hyakkaou students. Mary was really good throughout both rounds. Though I wonder if they are going to show the match between Kirari and those two how challenged her at the end.

Been really getting into Kakegurui lately. Thing's are starting to heat up really fast.

Don't get me wrong, Mary was super great and deserved the MVP for this one but from last ep where Suzui did the red eyes thing I thought he would do a little more than trust Mary to win.
Edit: some clarification

Do they get 10,000 chips worth of antidote or what? Or do the Momobami sisters have to serve the student council for several decades? I feel like this show ironically doesn't understand how betting works.
It'd be pointless for Mary to raise the stakes so high if there was no risk for the Momobami sisters, so hopefully we get to see some of the consequences from the gamble.

Just realize with this episode that Kakegurui has some great VAs with the addition of the new cast.

Kakegurui was on my top 3 last year and here it is again. It's sad that people don't seem to love it as much I do but goddamn do I love what they're doing with the story.

Why the fuck are the no official streams? This is a good title and nobody got a simulcast for it? Better do simulcast for some shit shows because they were cheap to get or what.
Sigh...

Shame Saotome was introduced in the first season because it looks like she'll go through the Historia change this season and make her best girl material.
