| This finale was eh...something else. Tsugumi is protrayed like a kid while Sarasa became more unbearable to watch in the show. At least Tsugumi was able to contribute a bit. Hiroto still had to lead the charge as usual but I find the game mechanics for the finale to be really dull. Just a very average anime in general imo. |
 |
| Hiroto wanting to deal with Shiina, requests Sarasa to hide herself, just in case Miss Hundred Faces will appear when they least expected it. And hopefully, the game within another game will bait her, though she really is just like the innocent middle schooler with a life ahead of her. And sure, Kurahashi invited her into ASTRAL pinning his hopes onto her that she'll break the bank, but ASTRAL is just a game to her, no more no less. The final day of the ASTRAL game, and Hiroto proposes a game of Crossboard between himself, Sarasa and Shiina to depict their own school's board pieces. Of course, this was a mitigated plan to see how Shiina would react, but more importantly, how would Kurahashi react as he still has control over the games. And with both Shinji and Nanase alive, even Kirigaya is done with his games, which leaves the only option that to control Shiina instead, which became the opportune tme to strike at him at all corners, including straight out to Kurahashi's base, which leads to her loss. Shiina ended up being the innocent party in this manipulative game, she just really wants to have fun. The others too had their share as well, and the game of lies continue. What a shellshock that this show bailed so hard to become nothing out from something. |

| Worst show I watched this season, glad it's over. |
| Besides recognizing Shiina as the final obstacle, Shiina agrees to assist them in clearing out ASTRAL along with Sarasa, taking on rival schools in the process. Despite knowing that Kurahashi is the one behind ASTRAL, every effort is being made to thwart his plan from being set in motion. Himeji, patiently biding her time, is revealed as the insider waiting for her moment to shine alongside the others. If Kurahashi is shut down, ASTRAL could theoretically come to an end then and there, even if the fulfillment rate is not entirely complete. The Seven Star returns triumphant, allowing the games to resume from that point onward. This show had a strong beginning, but couldn't stick the landing after, 6/10. At least this calmed me down until NGNL S2 gets announced one day. |

| Himeji and Kururugi pulling up on dude with an army of faceless cardboard cutout students behind them is hilarious. Kurahashi ain’t so tough face to face I see. The big bad Ms. Hundred Faces turning out to be a little girl who was just manipulated was pretty underwhelming. Really the end to this whole ASTRAL situation was. I think the show honestly peaked around episode 7 or whenever it was that the MC took on Noa. There were some interesting ideas here but the poor animation, pacing and writing in general stopped it from reaching its potential. I’m still gonna read the LN, but I just don’t think this anime did it any type of justice |

| First of all, this entire season of Liar Liar was rushed af. ASTRAL came to an end and that pathetic third-rated villain, Kurahashi Mikado, is still around. Please..., banish him from the island asap. |

何それ？意味分かんない  |
| How did he make this "Crossboard" game? Cheating again? What exactly did they do to Kurahashi (the bad guy from another academy) tho? Beat him up lol? Well this was a disappointment. I really didn't like how Shinohara won everything by cheating. No one really has any personality. And a crap ton of other things that don't make sense. Yeah, this wasn't very good. But I was still entertained somewhat. 6/10 The OP was good tho I wonder how good are the LNs |
 |
| The adaptation was kinda meh and rushed in some parts. I'd rather just stay reading the light novels, way better art and it's easier to follow what's actually going in each game. |
 |
| This series was quite average really and the finale just seemed so rushed |
| This show kinda went downhill during the second half. Overall I enjoyed it but it’s one of the weaker shows this season. |
| Hiroto won as expected, Shiina didn't use any cheats herself but the guy behind her sure did. Okay finale and an okay season overall. Did like the characters but the games in general were nothing exciting. Probably won't get more season but will probably watch if it gets more. |
 |
| This show was insultingly bad. Should've went all in on the fanservice instead of doing the opposite, maybe it would've been bearable then. Probably not though. |
| whoever translated Onii-chan as "bro-bro" needs to be put down adaptation was complete ass, a lot of people say "a bit rushed" but this shit was racing at mach speed there was no budget and there was no love for the source material, all in all, a terrible adaptation i urge you to go read the novels, theyre infinitely better, the girls are delightfully thicc in the illus, and even Hiroto becomes somewhat capable without cheating |
 |
| Was initially positive about this, but man everything felt so rushed and the animation sucked. Concluding with this hideous arc all my enthusiasm is gone for it. Maybe I'll give the source material a try, but won't probably watch the next season if there's going to be one. |
| Run a stamplar in Elder Scrolls Online, even wore the maid outfit. One does not mess the the maid! |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| The name of this anime really fit with the anime at the start i was thinking that'd be serious and cool but it was a lie |
 |
| I believe it had been revealed that the young girl Shiina, aka Ms. Heterochromia, was Miss Hundred Faces in a previous episode. However, it was still a bit odd how she treated Hiroto as a big bro and that she was being manipulated by that Kurahashi guy. At the end it turned out this young girl is very smart and was bored, not an exciting ending. On a side note hopefully Kurahashi ends up being banned and removed from the island. This series as a whole was pretty average although I did find some amusing moments especially from the girls such as Sarasa, Yuki, and Noa. I did not care for the blatant cheating and it was difficult at times to follow the rules of the various games that were held. The animation was average and the storyline was fairly weak. The character designs were decent though. This was one of the first strategy-type animes I've watched and I give this a 6/10. |
| Finally this trainwreck is over. If the anime was suppossed to be promotion material for the novel, guess they have lost more potential readers than won. Everyone says this was rushed, which I can agree, but the story overall has to be the same, and considering the whole writing is "convenience" meh. MC is a cheater, and though this was suppossed to be both his winning condition and his conundrum due to him having to hide that he is cheating instead of using legit skills, during the season he started cheating in front of crowds without a single effort put in not showing it openly and everyone was ok. Most games are basic af in terms of rules and winning conditions, yet I don't look down to people weekly asking what the rules were or why the MC won given that every character has some convenient unique skill after another designed specifically to drag the game or put some kind of twist that makes the game no longer be itself. Production values don't hold either, so this show will be forgotten by, let's say, wednesday when everyone watching it as part of the season has already seen it. |
| Waifus only represent ideals |
| Sorry - the series was nothing really special. There was a bit of variety, but all in all I expected more from the beginning. The first episodes were better, the MC had a lot of potential for development and stuff (I thought it could be like COTE or Tomodachi Game), but unfortunately nothing came of it, a meh finale today. Anyway, I'm taking episode 12 as an opportunity to comment on the whole series. (Well- but of course I can't rate the story as a whole, probably the LN is already further and also better). But for the Anime: always the same: Hiroto always wins the games (which no one reallyy understands how they work) (i mean its incomprehensible to me how his opponents lose although they basically can choose any ability), but not because he himself is fierce, but because he lets the others in the background hack everything for him or act in such a way that he ends up as the hero. Also, I think the moral of the show is wrong: "Lying is good and fun!" Lying gets you friends, recognition and "success". Think about what that would really mean for you irl. No, lying is bad, guys. The recognition and skill shown in this series, to me, is solely for the others who are really worth mentioning and cute (mainly Sarasa in my opinion). Some of the side characters were really good. However, the series also emphasises gender stereotypes that we shouldn't have anymore, for example, I find the one with his maid just unnecessary. You can say that they managed to save themselves a bit with the animations, I acknowledge that they at least tried, it seemed like a good show at times, but you knew all along how it would end. |

| I think we got an average anime here. It was okay to watch it, had fun moments and the OP is a real banger. I'm just sad, that the writing is so boring, i think the setting and story could have been easily go on CoTE levels with a great story and deep characters. 5/10 |

| This was probably the worst seasonal this season. Really did not enjoy this at all. Very happy its over with |
死人に口なし |
| This anime and that one about alchemy just felt like advertisements for the light novel/game. |
| -Login to mal -Looks at notifications -Three messages deleted "Oh no" |
| I completely forgot he was there to find his childhood friend lmao, they didn't go into that even once. |
| The game was so uncreative overall and uh...animation is shit. |
| Well, that was an ending of sorts...I guess. We still don't know why he is really there. Who is he looking for? Why is he searching for them? How is being in that school helping him look? We know as much about the MC as we did in episode 1. |
| welp, hot garbage of the season probably, thank god it's over. i got baited into starting it cause of the ecchi tag and they changed it halfway lmfao. 2/10. |
 |
| Pretty interesting, I suppose. At the end of the day, you just gotta lie. |
| this started out as a good show but as it went on it just felt more and more rushed and the story just started to feel not very put together. although im sure it's just that the anime didn't do the light novel justice. it definitely feels like there's still more to the story, so id be interested to see if it gets a second season. and if it does, if the next season will keep this same rushed pacing or if it'll slow it down a bit. |
My 2023 candies:      |
| Ngl this anime started off really good but now I think it more okay than bad, overall a 6/10 for me |
 https://malsignature.com/?/view?username=__FK__&style=normal my:<series name> |
| zero substance from the start to the very finish, not only the worst show of the season but probably one of the worst I've ever seen and somehow managed to complete. I'm trying to find at least some redeeming qualities, but in this show they're non-existent. 3/10, I don't know why I ever forced myself to go through with this act of self-torture |
