Hyakkaou Private Academy caters to the children of the wealthiest families, but its focus isn't academics or sports. Instead, students learn through a demanding gambling curriculum, where victory brings privilege and defeat carries a steep price. When Yumeko Jabami arrives, she's a uniquely skilled gambler who challenges the established order and exposes the excesses of the school's high-stakes environment. She's determined to test the limits of her opponents and reveal the true nature of risk and reward.
