Seiji Kishi (Assassination Classroom) is directing the anime at CUE. Makoto Fukami (Kinnikuman: Perfect Origin Arc) is handling the series composition. Masanori Shino (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean) is designing the characters. Taku Iwasaki (Gurren Lagann) is composing the music.

The story takes place in a world where banks serve as gambling halls. When greenhorn banker Akira is suddenly transferred to the Special Operations Department, he ends up entering the bank's gambling hall. There, he meets Shin and abandons his ordinary daily life to plunge into the world of gambling, where his life is at stake.

Tanaka debuted the manga in Shueisha's Young Jump magazine in July 2020. Shueisha published the manga's 20th compiled book volume on November 19.
