I added this note to the description, but then decided my parenthetical comment didn't belong up there, so...
Mangahelpers reports will return Thursday of the week of Nov. 21. (Which in a happy irony for the fans works out to Thanksgiving in the USA.)
BTW, If you are curious why I specified the US because, for example, in Canada Thanksgiving or Jour de l'Action de Grâce happens on the second Monday in October. Oh, hey, that's Columbus Day in most of the US, Native American Day in South Dakota... And someday might be Indigenous People's Day throughout the US.
Anyway, it's been a long hiatus (even longer than my tangent), so, enjoy! And let's hope the mangaka is doing well.

Even though I watched the dorama first and basically knew all the plot points I just had. to. keep. reading. The TV version stops after the third round so I was intrigued to see how it would be resolved in the manga. The plot is A+ everything is so logically explained that it's convinced me no game is completely up to chance it just hasn't been explained to me Liar Game style. The art is clear cut and a bit dark, but fitting of the concept. The only thing missing is romance! The shoujo reader in me wants a Nao/Akiyama pairing. They hinted at it in the dorama but I guess it's something they added for the ratings. Oh well, we'll see.
Overall it's really opposite of what I normally read, but that just shows the span of its appeal. Definitely recommended!

This manga will be much more interesting if the girl would be more useful! I really want to slap or kick the girl everytime she relies on the guy (She is showing that women are weak and that they can't stand on their own feet!) The girl is too naive! She should have shut the door in front of that lawyer's face!!!! D: She is queen Baka of the whole world, as love as people think money is important, the world will never have peace unless love surpasses money..then the world will have peace! The girl must be destroyed!!!!!~~~!!!!~~~~!!!! She believes in people too much!!! That girl..I want to beat some sense into her....hasn't she seem the world already?!!?! Full of lies due to the liar game...the Mr. X wasn't what she thought it was..turned out to be someone else!
This is what I thought up to volume 4....now I'm starting to like her more and more in volumes 5-6, I want to read the next chapter..!
@Sharog: Thanks for answering my question!

Spoiler (highlight to view)
(I guessed who Mr.X was but there was some parts that confused me, for example...Mr. X says that he made 3 groups of 8..but there are only 22 people in that game, 3x8=24 and it can't be 3 groups of 7 since the votes will be different..they wont be able to vote equally, 4-4, 2-2, 1-1)
..shouldn't that make her lose trust in people now!? And not be too naive and gullible!?!? The girl makes me want to punch her face, pull out my hair and run away shouting why is she sooo stupid! and it makes me want to punch the computer screen since her face is in it >.>This is what I thought up to volume 4....now I'm starting to like her more and more in volumes 5-6, I want to read the next chapter..!

just wanted to post here because the last post was so WRONG
this game was realy smart and nice , the main guy remind me of light in death note because he realy smart . the plots also realy smart , the smartest manga by far i have read , made me think for some time many time , after you get to chapter 30+ you just cant stop to read .

It was fantastic.
My complaints
1) The author is unbearably preachy. He's absolutely 100% a communist.
2) Harimoto isn't a good character. I mindlessly skimmed that consolation game where you're supposed to care about his boring drama.
3) The island arc was the absolute best.
4) The ending is really bad. Finishes super abruptly. Nothing makes any sense. Very goofy.

So far, i've only read ch1 (cause only ch1 is out lol), but I like it. And the story is already developing and looks to develop even more with promise. For now, i'll give it a 9, and a 10 later if it stays good for the next couple of chaps or so until it gets bad xD
UPDATE: i'm at ch19 now, and it's seems that this manga has become moreso about the game then it has about the characters. i was hoping it would emphasize character development, plot advancement, and game entertainment all at once, but only the last one seems to be focused on. i think now this manga deserves a 7.

I would totally buy it. It's suspense-ridden. At times I'm surprised by the twists in the plot. Sure, there are things you can predict, but in my opinion, the things that you can't make up for it.
Plus, I like the art. :]

this one is cool. Altho I HATE THE MAIN GIRL CHARACTER SO MUCH, i really want to kick and slap her. Seriously. It's not being HONEST anymore, it's being STUPID!! Too honest = too stupid!
But overal, it's a nice manga with all the problems and how to solve it. It's interesting. But the main girl...argh !!!
i want to rate it higher but since every chapter, that stupid girl is just so annoying so i give it a 7.5. It could be an 8 tho...

This is a superb read. It's really not for everyone but it's story is one of a kind.
I just started reading this and it stirred up my excitement.
But seriously, Nao is as stupid at fvck.

I'm already at chapter 40 and she have already participated at many rounds and types of LIAR GAMES and she's always fooled. it's like, in every strategy or plan, she will seriously mess up, end up crying then seek or Akiyama. When will she ever learn? jeez, so annoying!
i have put it as "unfinished" after chap 18... i liked it up until this point but... in this chapn she truly demonstrates her lack of intelligence and it truly irritates me.. i cant stand reading it any more.. i see her decision as only a ploy to lengthen the series.
