"LIAR LIAR"

Genre- School, Suspense, Game.

In the hopes of finding that one person, Shinohara joins the 'Academy Island' where everything from money, respect, authority, etc. are waged in the form of games. With an infinite number of games, every student has the power to challenge others no matter their rank or class.

Academy Island has the concept of 'seven stars' which means the person holding the highest amount of stars is deemed as the most powerful. And the higher your stars count goes, the higher your chances of being a target for everyone else in the academy. The anime revolves around a lie that our MC must keep up from being expelled from the school. It has a setting similar to "No Game No Life" and "Kakegurui" where our MC must play a game to prove he is the strongest and win each and every battle to keep up the act of being the fastest ever seven-star. While the games are fun and enticing, the anime seriously lacks character chemistry. With just a little bit of thought on each character's involvement with others, the anime could've made them a little more wholesome and complete.

Also, the anime incorporates side characters that don't mean much to the show, so eliminating them will be a better idea to focus more on the MC's story rather than focusing its time on their build. Coming to its production, the anime has a really subtle/ budgeted animation, so it would be a good idea to up that a bit in case there was ever going to be a second season for it.

This anime is recommended for every "GAME" anime lover.
