User Reviews
Alunauwie
Usogui dives deep into a world where lies are currency and truth is the ultimate risk. Following Baku’s return to the deadly gambling arena of Kakerou, the film explores the razor-thin line between logic and madness through his tense bond with the naïve yet lucky Koji. With striking visuals, psychological duels, and Ryusei Yokohama’s magnetic performance, Usogui becomes more than a gambling thriller — it’s a haunting reflection on humanity’s fear of truth itself.
