Has anyone else read this series? It's not very "big" yet, but it's very good. This is actually more of a psychological manga since it has so many tricks. Caution: this manga requires a brain to understand.

So, the manga starts with the main character, a foolishly honest girl named Kanzaki Nao, receiving a mysterious package. The package contains 100 million yen and a note that said she had been randomly selected to compete in a tournament called the Liar Game. Each round in the Liar Game has a "Win it all, or lose it all" situation. You could either win more money than you can imagine, or you could lose and go into an impossible debt. Nao gains the help of an ex-con artist, and together, they go further and further into the game.

This manga is very interesting to read because the ex-con artist, Shinichi Akiyama, comes up with all sorts of strategies to make sure they win. I guess it's a little bit like Death Note, but it has more deceptions.

On a side note, if you read this manga, don't drop it because the art sucks in the beginning. The mangaka's skills get better and better.

It sounds really cool, and a bit like Spiral I think. Awesome, I'll definately look for it.

Liar Game is a very well-thought-out series, and I personally think it trumps Death Note. Although, the artist must be like, "GAME THEORY FTW!!! @u@" every morning after he gets out of bed. Seriously, the puzzlements are mindboggling. Whatever that means.

I know! Everything is amazing. I tried to follow all the tricks, but the mangaka lost me at Round 3. I think the only reason why Liar Game isn't ranked at least in the Top 50's on manga-hosting sites is because of the artwork (which I have to say isn't at professional level yet).
