The story of LIAR GAME is described as follows:
This year marks the 20 years since the first appearance of LIAR GAME in Young Jump, and this anniversary serves as the announcement of the anime adaptation of the series. At the time, it began serialization with the theme of “The importance of trust” but in the 20 years since its release we have gone through the COVID-19 Pandemic, the explosive rise of social media, and an increasingly distrustful world…I feel that now, the theme of my series is more relevant than ever.
And so I feel it is fitting that in this era we get the LIAR GAME anime.
Whether you’re someone who feels nostalgic for this series or someone discovering it for the first time, I believe this story will resonate with you in some way.
I hope you look forward to it.
