The story starts off with a ordinary girl, kanzaki nao. she is kind, gullible, easy to cheat, honest. A truly honest girl by nature. One day, she receives a hundred million yen and a card saying that she is chosen to taken part in the first round of the liar game. The rule is simply by cheating the hundred million yen out of your opponent by any means without calling the person within 30 days. The winner will get the hundred million yen and the loser in debt of hundred million yen.
She was scare that it is a scam so she turned to the police but being refused. The next day, she receives a notification card saying that her opponent is her former teacher, Fujisawa Kazuo. She goes to him trusting him to seek help, but end up getting tricked to hand over her hundred million yen in the end. Desperately, she turned to the police again but end up being refused again. However she is told by the police that a master swindler , Akiyama Shinichi is being released from the jail the next day.
With no choice, Nao approaches akiyama for help but end up being refused. At first, akiyama refused to help her, However, after seeing nao's kindness, honesty and persistent, Akiyama decided to help with the condition of giving him half of the money after they win. With the help of akiyama, They manage to trick fujisawa to hand over the money. Even so, Nao decided to hand over her 50 million yen to fujisawa to at least lessen his debt with the condition that he should not lie again. After seeing this sight, akiyama decided to give his 50 million yen to fujisawa to clear his debt anyway.
Not long later, just when nao had thought that she had leave the liar game, she receive a notification that there is a round 2. If she want to withdraw from the game , she has to give up 50 hundred yen. Not able to adhere to this condition, she has no choice but to participate. Akiyama then decides to help nao. He wants to find out the true motive of the liar game and also the organisation behind and destroy it. Along the way, the past behind akiyama also starts to reveal and finds out that they were able to participate in the lair game is not a coincidence.
I find the story rather interesting because of the irony. Such as they arrange a very honest girl to participate in some game of lying. This is truly irony and it is the first time seeing these kind of plot. This story is rather similar to death note in the sense that it involves planning and thinkings. What i like is that the story is not at all draggy. With most the time focusing on characters participating in the liar game and very little side story. I also like the variety of the games in the story. I find it very creative and you wont be bored of watching it. Lastly, the twisting of story would just impressed you.
Of course, there are also bad points. The ending of the story, i feel rather plain and incomplete. The ending is just so simple without any twist making it rather easy to predict and not satisfying. However, even i said all these, it really does have a good plot.
This drama really sets the watcher thinking and guessing throughout the whole game. As right from the start of every game, it already sets you in suspense. The best thing is that the game use real life concepts such as probability and some tricks. The whole story is actually also try to send a message that even in the world with so many lies, there still people whom you can trust. I should say this drama does not teach people to lie, rather it teaches you to on how to prevent yourself from being lied. It also emphasis on the importance of teamwork and trusting your team mates which i think it is a very important skill in life.
Okay, unlike other drama's, there are actually no song in this drama. Yeah, so there is no song for me to introduce. However, the opening music tune is very nice which i cant find D: For people who like to watch death note, this drama is definitely the one for you. Okay, if you have the time, really really go watch this drama. I promised you wont regret :] ciao su~~
