Kakegurui is a manga written by Homura Kawamoto and illustrated by Toru Naomura, brought to television by studio MAPPA in 2017 and distributed worldwide on Netflix. It takes place at an elite school where students earn status by gambling against one another, and the Student Council rules through high-stakes games. Yumeko arrives and quickly upends that system, not because she wants to win, but because she loves the tension of risk itself.
The series is known for intense psychological drama and mature content, so this collection is aimed at older teens and adults who already follow the show. Its sharp school uniforms, dramatic hairstyles, and striking eyes give colorists bold shapes and strong contrasts.
What’s Inside This Collection
Yumeko appears in most of the 23 designs, while the Student Council members and her classmates fill out the rest.
Yumeko Jabami
Solo portraits and anime-style pages show Yumeko’s calm smile and intense gaze. Color her long, straight hair Black, adding a little Indigo for shine, her eyes a vivid Red, and her school blazer a deep Red with a dark skirt.
Mary Saotome
Mary appears alone, with Yumeko, and with Ririka. Her blonde twin tails look best in Yellow with Goldenrod shadows, which contrasts nicely with Yumeko’s dark hair on duo pages.
Midari Ikishima
Midari’s pages capture her wild personality and signature eyepatch. Keep the eyepatch Black and use a darker hair color with sharp shading to match her edgy style.
Kirari and Ririka Momobami
The Momobami twins appear together with Yumeko. Keep Kirari’s hair pale Silver or White, shaded lightly in Gray, and give Ririka the same coloring so the twins’ resemblance stays clear.
Runa Yomozuki and Group Pages
Runa, the small Student Council member who loves sweets and runs the school’s games, appears in two portraits, and a group page brings several girls together. A bright accent color on Runa’s candy or accessories adds a playful touch.
What Kakegurui Coloring Pages Do
Thinking critically about risk and chance. Kakegurui is built around gambling, but its stories constantly show how luck, probability, and manipulation affect every outcome. These pages can open a conversation among older fans about why games of chance are designed to favor the house and why real gambling carries serious risks. The characters’ extreme choices make it easier to discuss the difference between fiction and healthy real-life decisions.
Detailed line work for experienced colorists. Early fine motor growth comes partly from structured coloring, a point American Academy of Pediatrics family resources underline, and older artists keep refining that same control on complex designs. Yumeko’s long hair, the pleats in the school uniforms, and the twins’ intricate details reward a steady hand and patient shading. The duo pages add an extra challenge of keeping two characters’ palettes distinct.
A focused, calming break. A 2005 Art Therapy Journal report found participants leaving a structured coloring session noticeably less anxious. Even though the anime is full of tension, coloring its characters slowly is a quiet, absorbing activity. For many grown-up fans, a detailed portrait like this becomes an end-of-day wind-down ritual.
Studying expressive anime design. Kakegurui is famous for exaggerated facial expressions and bold color contrasts, especially Yumeko’s red eyes against her black hair. Coloring these pages helps fans see how artists use a limited palette and strong contrast to make a character unforgettable. Some colorists experiment with alternate palettes to change a character’s mood.
How to Color Kakegurui Pages Well
- Glossy black hair: Color Yumeko’s hair Black, then add thin streaks of Indigo or dark Blue along the top. The streaks suggest shine without lightening the color.
- Red eyes: Use a bright Red for the iris, a darker Maroon ring, and a small white highlight. Her eyes are the focal point of most portraits.
- School uniform: Fill blazers with a deep Red and skirts with Black or Navy Blue, leaving white for the shirt collars. Consistent uniforms tie all the characters together.
- Pale twin hair: Leave Kirari’s and Ririka’s hair mostly white and shade lightly with Gray. Too much color will hide their silvery look.
- Blonde twin tails: Use Yellow with Goldenrod in the shadows for Mary. Directional strokes along each tail add volume.
- Dramatic backgrounds: Shade the area behind portraits in deep Purple or Black to echo the show’s tense gambling scenes.
