But... Koi to Uso doesn't seem to waste its time. And I find a melodramatic and insane triangle love (rectangle?) again. (Light spoilers from read more
The story was interesting at the beginning but then transformed into a mess to the point that it was unexplained and inconceivable possible that happens. The partners and couples are selected by "Japan's officials" at the age of 16, so you will need to marry with them because the law demands it. The writers created a weird love square and combined with a failed character progression titled it "Koi to Uso." I can't read more
Getting into this show was actually quite easy. The premise is simple to understand and as a manga reader, I went into this show with tolerable expectations. The first few episodes easily read more
Well... I don't know, let us watch Koi to Uso about that, for this anime literally shows about it. It first started as a lie and sometimes, long held lies will soon become truths. Then the story goes: STORY: 7/10 *It focuses on a social economic real life situation where Japan is situated with its problems of low birth rates. *How the government solves the crisis with arranged marriage and stipulating it with the problems of society. *Well when you finish the story it feels like its incomplete, like: wheres the Nisaka path, The continuation of the story and their progress as lovers. At first a read more
Pace is high, WAY TOO HIGH in the beginning, but it becomes stagnant in later section. The production managed to showcase big fraction of story which was supposed to be. Comic timings were average enough. Depends on the mood you are watching. Sound is pretty good. The story could have been very good. There are few incomplete parts and few plot holes which have been filled, but I think it's not getting any sequel. Some unnecessary kissing read more
If you like Romance and Drama, ignore the reviews and scores for this show and watch it. It's good. SPOILLERS BELLOW I usually do not write reviews. But what MAL community did to this show is ridiculous and a reflection of a broken system and, honestly, mediocre people. I take MAL way more serious than I should. I actually use data from this website for my Master's thesis. So when shit like this happens I get really mad. The first thing I wanna discuss is: Is this show as bad as its score and some reviews would suggest? The answer is no. This show is a perfectly good Drama. read more
Based off the popular manga of the same name Koi to Uso which translates literally into love and lies makes use of a theme thatโs not often seen in animes which is marriage. The premise of this story is that in this world that the anime is set in Lies are forbidden and Love is doubly forbidden which sets the stage for the story. In this world as a result of population read more
Japan has a declining birthrate. To combat this, the Japanese Government thought it'd be a BRILLIANT idea to create a law that forcefully marries two 16 year old kids in hopes that they'd make kids. No mention of riots, arguments about the law, no characters even seem to question the law in general, they just all accept it as it is. So, we're off to a rocky start already. Our main character, who I will refer to as Paste because he's just a copy/paste character from every other anime, is your average teenager and anime protagonist. Boring as hell read more
Welcome to the waifu war anime of the season. Don't believe me just check the online forums and anime sites comment sections. Pros- 1) Has different approach to the story. Meaning the story isn't all generic 2) Waifu's 3) Has some twists you might not expect Cons- 1) The art is kinda weird. The eyes are way too big 2) Forced drama 3) The pacing is way too fast 4) Pretty sure won't have a proper ending. Since it is going to have only 12 episodes 5) Has plot holes. And the government system is fcking hilarious For a verdict : I won't say I'm not enjoying the show read more
Koi to Uso is the worst show I have ever watched. It is a romance anime without the romance. It is worse than shitcom. Worse than any other 5 minute "WTF" show. It was physically and mentally painful to get through this show, and I continued watching only because I am a masochist. However I would urge others to watch this show so they can have a solid basis concerning what a "Bad" anime is- the worst of the worst- an absolutely shit show. The first episode introduces us to the absolute worst MC of any show, let alone anime, in read more
First off, I found the story very interesting I have read a book series before with a similar plot of government arranged marriages so I was excited to see that played out again in a different setting. This story is all about Nejima Yukari and how he deals with his feelings for his 5 year long love and his new assigned future wife who everyone says he now has to love. If you are a fan of romance and read more
First let me ask you : what is love to you ? Do you consider it something that is constructed, that has to be built over time ? Does it require some kind of effort to be able to grow ? Is it about gradually liking a person the more you learn about him/her ? Would you say your loved one has to be a partner in life, sharing the best moments like the worst ? Maybe you see it as read more
i dont like The main character Its over shitty nervous The main character so kimochiwarui stupidy [ The good side, maybe when choosing a couple to get married is to be observant in all aspects, maybe the government is very concerned about the part of the ideal partner, I really appreciate so agreed ] Story: 3/10 Oh look, they cant have a romance read more
[Story: 5/10 , Characters: 3/10, Art: 6/10, Sound: 8/10, Enjoyment: 5/10] What do you get when you want to deal with a serious issue like Japan's decline in child birth & marriage but still want to attract people from various age groups to explore Love? You get Love and Lies. A show where you end up lying to others telling them how much you love read more
What makes it exciting and enjoyable to watch is the unique plot and that it is impossible to tell what will happen next and how it will end. In addition, the show doesnโt shy away from sexual matters. In fact, what tends to take a typical romance show at least an entire season read more
<Disclaimer> The following review is based off of my thoughts, opinions and observations you are in charge of what you consume and should you choose to read all of this, you are responsible for your response and reaction, basically it's fine if you disagree don't be a lil b about it. Okay, I'll say it, I can't see anything good from this apart from the art which is decent. Koi To Uso or Love and Lies, is a harem (lets face it, most of the Harem is stupid), "romance", slice of life and comedy. I'll start off by giving a little insight read more
What was looking to be a decent drama about fighting an imposed marriage law for a 5 year old love's sake turned out to be really poor polygamy propaganda. Story: 3 Started out strong but slowly devolved into a really bad attempt at not hurting anyone, followed by the most predictable open and inconclusive ending I've ever seen in my life. Art: 5 While the big ol' eyes look cute in most girls they certainly look very uncanny in male characters such as MC himself, backgrounds didn't make me go crazy and overall animation wasn't great either. Sound: 6 The one read more
-,,Just don't think about it" If you don't think about anything. You'll understand everything. But if you think about it too much, you'll realize everything is nothing and life is pointless. I mean, you'll realize just how amazing this show is. I mean, it fucking sucks. The show is read more
the plot is about a world where in order to help japans decreasing population, its government decides to pair people up with each other for marriage when they turn 16 via read more |
