Super-skilled gamer and gambling guy winning matches.

I think the promise has some merit, and there are some moments where that dude just has smirk-faces and goes off - it would be great if this anime would play to his strength as an overly confident guy in a drama, such as in Dr. Stone. Here is the kicker: It isn't playing to this strength.

It also just comes up with totally new concepts at times, and the logic used in the game of around episode 6 just went to absurd stupid. It really got me thinking: We are supposed to believe this? For realsies!?

The main character is a pervert, and we see this overly annoyingly drawn faces and hear loud voices way too often. Not to mention, this anime is cringy at times; It starts with perversion and general ecchi stuff, which would be better left without, but the worst is not only that incest is alluded, but also that the main character's 11 (!) yo sister is alluded to partake in such acts with her brother, or is shown naked. What the firetruck, you serious? (this goes to the creators of this anime/manga). This happens multiple times basically, and I wanted to vomit each single time.

So yeah, it could have much more potential, and play either like Dr. Stone or maybe Death Note or Death Parade, but the biggest drama in this anime is it didn't chose to. instead of being a possible standout like the former mentioned, it just falls into the kind-of-average ecchi anime with not too much going for it. It doesn't help the main character is a full time jerk.

The animation is in itself fine, but I dislike the overly used bloom effects which are just blinding. It isn't as bad as K, though.

Rating: 5/10, maybe a tad bit less even - If it would have omitted and included some things differently, it could have easily been an 8 or higher.

Watchable for many but not all of us, but you will be ashamed while watching this at times, and I did watch it alone even.
