50 free Kakegurui trivia questions with answers — trivia quiz, new questions added Oct 2026.
Kakegurui takes a familiar setting, an elite Japanese high school, and replaces grades with wagers. Students win status at the gaming table and lose it just as fast, and the arrival of Yumeko Jabami, who bets for the sheer thrill of it, upends the whole order. The result is one of the most gleefully unhinged series in modern manga and anime. This quiz covers the story from every side: the heroine and her classmates, the student council and its schemes, the games and the tricks behind them, the manga's creators, the anime's studio and voice cast, and the live-action drama, films and English-language remake. It is written for fans who have watched or read the series and want to test how much they remember. The questions start with the essentials and work up to details only devoted viewers will catch, and every answer comes with a short explanation.
