根据2013年“动画未来计划”上映的ova动画《死亡台球》改编而成的电视动画。
在相同时间去世的两名死者的灵魂被邀请来到不可思议的酒吧“奎因德基姆”。德基姆和金蒂分别是15层和20层的裁定者，蓝发少女容貌的诺娜是二人的上司，在90层管理着负责各楼层的裁定者们。
所谓裁定，即是由客人在轮盘选定的游戏结束之后裁定“死者”去留——天堂即是转生，地狱即是虚无。游戏的胜负需要客人拥有赌上生命的觉悟才能进行下去，“死者”的本性在游戏过程中暴露无遗。

Death Billiards is one of the four anime works that each received 38 million yen (about US$480,000) from the "2012 Young Animator Training Project." Just like in 2010 and 2011, the animation labor group received 214.5 million yen (US$2.65 million) from the Japanese government's Agency for Cultural Affairs, and it distributed most of those funds to studios who train young animators on-the-job. An old and a young man find themselves in a mysterious bar where they have to play a game of billiard. The bet: their lives.
