Yokoya is the primary antagonist of Liar Game first introduced during the Contraband game. His looks however, are no longer a problem to me and I’m quite used to them. Norihiko Yokoya (Manga): The picture I used may not be that scary, but I swear, he is one of the creepiest characters in existence. Although, who’s to say she didn’t become less naïve, and mentally stronger after The Final Stage? Nao’s actress is also quite pretty in my opinion. Granted, you can’t fit in every important detail when each episode is only an hour long, so of course the characters were pretty underdeveloped. Akiyama usually has to bail her out of dire situations, and sometimes she was just double face-palm worthy. That being said, she still manages to influence other contestants with just her unconditional, good-hearted will, and even making them have a change of heart. In the live-action, she might as well be trust incarnate. Nao Kanzaki (Portrayed by Toda Erika): This version of Nao is the same as her counterpart, however unlike Manga!Nao, she only receives a small amount of character development (if any at all). She believes Liar Game is about trust, and that everyone could win if they put aside selfishness, and worked together. Ultimately, her resolve to ‘save’ the contestants she meets in Liar Game is strengthened. Even better, is that she still retains what makes her Nao, her empathy and compassion towards others. Thanks to the experiences in LG and Akiyama’s guidance, she is now able to doubt and lie. After becoming involved in the Liar Game Tournament, her character develops in a natural and almost amazing way. And what does she do when she finds 100 yen? She gives it to the ‘lost and found’ at the police station. In the beginning of LG, she trusts what ANYONE says, even if they’re blatantly lying in her face. She’s referred to as ‘naïve’ or ‘foolishly honest’ Nao because she is exactly that. Nao Kanzaki (Manga): Meet our main heroine, a (18 year old) college student with a hospitalized and terminally ill father. “ Is being honest really such a bad thing?” X, TFS, RebornĪlright, onward to introducing the main subjects of this manifesto! I will be explaining both their manga and drama versions. Liar Game Drama Timeline: Episode Zero, Season 1, Season 2, Phantom Ep. This essay however, is not about Akiyama or Fukunaga. Akiyama either chooses to ignore love, or is completely oblivious to it. Not that there aren’t hints to romance in the manga (ex. On the flip-side, I’m willing to support romance in the J-Drama. As far as romance goes, I wouldn’t want it in the manga at all, unless of course it’s in an epilogue or in the ending. Personally, I like the manga more than the drama overall. Now both the manga and drama have their own appeal.
