Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

Same. When it went on hiatus for around a year I was about to just go ahead and read the series since I wasn't sure when it would end, but now I do. Definitely high on the plan to read list.

I love Liar Game! Sad hear that it's ending soon, but then again, they can't keep up the tournaments forever.

Man, at this point i really wish that somebody in Japan would be dared enough to get Liar Game animated. I've seen the Live-Action and, whilst very faithful to the manga, it felt rather dull and generally fails at capturing the thrill and shock value which makes the manga so very entertaining. Anime would be much better medium to adapt it, i think.
