Can I just say Netflix are doing amazingly well in providing international series that’s not just inclusive of Korean series for example because they’re popular but also Spanish, German, French etc. I have a small list of dramas/films that I would like to watch next on Netflix. It may not seem like much but these are the areas that truly define the anime. The artwork animation is slick and the anime has its own quirks through interesting character expression. A new student comes along and this shakes the whole academy up as she shows off her skills and catches the eyes of the student council members. If you lose badly, not only are you in debt but you may risk becoming a house pet – being ridiculed by the other students whilst having to serve them until someone else becomes house pet. Kakegurui shows a world where elite high school students go to school not to be educated but to show their skills in gambling. We know it’s not real but that’s what we want – creative storytelling. They are able to weave themes, characters and storylines together creatively. On the outset, it’s not a hobby (I fail to find another word) that I can relate to but this is where the Japanese are very clever. I am generally not one to watch anime on a regular basis but if there is a good storyline to follow, I won’t miss it! Kakegurui translates to Compulsive Gambler which is exactly what the anime is about. I am so excited that Season 2 is here! I have only watched 2 episodes so far but I really like the direction that it is going. Would score higher if some parts towards the ending wasn’t so rushed. Both praise for character and actor who played him.ģ.5/5. Bingo in particular, was an amazing character in playing an undercover cop who inevitably was never going to have a happy ending. The first half fares better than the second half but overall, it was a very promising series that delivered its core message. This series puts a different spin on things as it shows a dark side to the Hong Kong police force – hierarchy and corruption: What happens when you go too far to gain power? I would say Hong Kong producers are great in writing police-related dramas but some stories do eventually get recycled to death. The Defected is a slick, cinematic-style series based on a true story. The storylines have been quite lacklustre but The Defected has changed my mind and has made me think maybe there is hope for Hong Kong drama series after all. In my opinion, TVB have been overall quite poor in what they have released in recent years. It is actually the first TVB drama (TVB being a licensed Hong Kong Television company) to be made available on the platform so it’s quite a big deal for a small city. I finished this series about 2 weeks ago as it became available on Netflix. Whilst I cannot agree or disagree, I will say this: Each episode left me thinking a lot, particularly episode 2 where the ending was very ambiguous but actually, to great effect to prove a point. I’m not sure whether the decision to watch it there and then was wise but I will say it’s not one to watch in an open environment because there are scenes of sexual nature in the first episode.Ī lot of fans are saying Season 5 is weak in comparison to the previous seasons. My colleague and I watched the first episode of Season 5 in the office one afternoon whilst on break. All episodes in season 5 are related to technology though. *As I haven’t watched any other season apart from Season 5, I cannot back this statement fully. Each episode has a different storyline/theme but is consistent with carving out a dark world where technology is concerned.*

For those who truly don’t know, Black Mirror consists of stand-alone episodes so you are free to watch any episode at any given time. I am actually very new to the whole Black Mirror world but I have heard many passing comments about its very nature so in some ways, I knew what I would expect whilst all at the same time, didn’t know at all. Let me know on your thoughts on this particular episode in the comments!
I generally don’t use the internet term ‘WTF’ in my writing but there is genuinely no other way to put it. This episode was definitely the most WTF. 1 of 3 episodes in Season 5 of Black Mirror: Striking Vipers.
