Anyone else read this manga? I just started it the other day. It's about a girl who recieves a package that contains 100 million yen (a million dollars) and a postcard that states she is now a part of the "Liar Game," in which she is in a game with another person to steal each other's money. They are both given the same amount in yen to steal from each other, and at the end of the game some collectors come to collect the yen they gave to you. Whatever amount you have stolen from your opponent you get to keep as a prize, and your opponent falls into that amount of debt to the company. I've only gotten through the first round, but it's good so far. Very similar to Death Note and a tad predictable at times, but still good. Thoughts?~
Downloading first volume now. Death Note was fun, this should be too. The only problem is that it makes me lose The Game every time I see it.
I liked Death Note so maybe I'll like this one. Thanks for the heads up, I'll be sure to check it out since I need something new to read. x3
Nao? I could say the same =/ She needs to grow a backbone. I'm hoping she'll develop as the story goes on, but I think her frail nature is an important plot element so perhaps not. I just got through round two. Things got quite tense, Spoiler But I'm wondering what sort of part Nao can play in this since she's been disqualified. All I ask is that it's not a total deus ex machina that keeps her involved, like a random second chance =/ .
Spoiler Do revival rounds count as Deus Ex Machina? Well I'm up to the most recent. Nao has yet to grow a backbone and Akiyama is still the character that everyone wants to see more of.
Spoiler Oh man... I would say so. Unless they made it believable. >>; There'd be no reason to revive anyone since they put them in a crapload of debt. Bah. Ah, well, I thought it was too much to hope for. I started the live action drama and she's more tolerable in that... Sort of. But some of the acting is... Eh... Lol. Haven't read much more of the manga yet but I'm about to.
