What is Bet about?
Bet is a live-action adaptation of the Japanese manga Kakegurui – Compulsive Gambler by Homura Kawamoto and Tōru Naomura. Miku Martineau plays Yumeko Kawamoto, a teenage gambler who transfers to the elite St. Dominic's boarding school, where underground gambling decides who climbs the social ladder.

Is Bet worth watching?
Reception was mixed. Critics praised the visual style and some performances, while fans of the manga criticised changes to the source material, and the casting drew criticism over Asian erasure. If you liked the anime Kakegurui, go in expecting a looser, Western take rather than a faithful remake.
