Actress Minami Hamabe has previously played Menma in the live-action AnoHana TV drama, as well as Saki in the live-action Saki movie and TV drama series. Now, she’s taking the role of the crazy and compulsive gambler herself, Yumeko Jabami, and the movie’s cast has now revealed her in costume.
Hamabe has previously played sweet and innocent characters, however, Yumeko will be a whole different animal from her previous roles.
Looks like the live-action Kakegurui drama now has its Yumeko, and her actress has a lot of experience playing anime-based roles.
She did admit that she’s excited to give the role her all… though we’re all curious how she’ll pull off those Kakegurui faces.
