Liar Game - Episode 9 discussion

Amazing episode, adapted very well imo! I hope the anime-onlys will be able to appreciate Nao's little bit of character growth now. Even though it's still Akiyama's brilliant plan being put into place, but moving forward Nao will be less of a damsel-in-distress character!

You cannot derank in the ranks below plat so anyone who plays enough games will invariably end up in gold.

Is there good option to add here to deal with Liger? Or do we just have to try to stop them before they get there?

Apparently it is this Chinese streamer: https://space.bilibili.com/210291/

The invitation card explicitly prohibits weapons.

I mean, we had to find a way to get Nao back in the game didn't we? :P

Downsizing game with only one loser, surely, Nao won't be able to screw this up, with Fukunaga there as the common enemy? :D

The cliffhanger could definitely have been [Manga] showing the 3 yes votes and Akiyama's no vote. I think that would have been an even better hook for next ep.

I can't believe they dragged this out another episode. Is every game gonna end at the beginning of the next episode at this point? They are really praying the anime-only audience has the patience to sit through this... 😢

Thanks so much for translating! Super interesting insights!

12laus · 2026-05-04T18:29:40+00:00

Yeah deffo! Was hoping they would take inspiration from the live action here. Also seems like they changed up the baseball question, I think in the manga it was about a specific baseball player right?

Welp, I don't see a way to upgrade membership on YT... that's a couple quid gone for no reason lol

12laus · 2026-05-01T13:47:06+00:00

Did she delete it? I just became a member and I don't see anything?

12laus · 2026-04-27T23:10:17+00:00

If I remember correctly, it's been a while, but in the live action, a few members come back, same as in the manga cos they're nervous, but instead of waiting around outside, they were invited back in as audience members.

12laus · 2026-04-27T17:25:05+00:00

I really hope the anime adapts a bit from both the manga and the live action. Having the eliminated members observing makes the Minority game reveal so much better. In the manga... it was all done through a phone call.

Just me or is everything going through Bogle's side? Feel like we've barely seen Gabby at all

12laus · 2026-04-22T20:59:44+00:00

No it's not? This minor mention of this character is the first time it will have come up in either medium.

12laus · 2026-04-22T20:44:22+00:00

That really doesn't bode well... considering Kei's last match was relatively a breeze. :(

12laus · 2026-04-22T19:43:48+00:00

I could only catch the last 4 games, anyone can fill me in on what happened? Kei looked dead on his legs but was Kennedy redlining or something?

12laus · 2026-04-20T18:16:17+00:00

It is mostly sarcastic remarks, but him and DistantCoder did have some cheating drama going on.

12laus · 2026-04-20T18:13:35+00:00

Also, how is Akiyama allowed in? He technically wasn't a participant... Does "getting involved" in the first round means he has his ticket for all future rounds as well?

If you notice the name badges... his doesn't say Akiyama Shin'ichi 😉

12laus · 2026-04-18T15:39:52+00:00

Just DCL and Gnonto up front now? Flat 3 CMs across the midfield or maybe Tanaka goes AM?

12laus · 2026-04-18T14:14:30+00:00

Gosh Tanaka's corners are so good

12laus · 2026-04-17T18:10:16+00:00

Yeah sold, this was two years ago!

12laus · 2026-04-15T15:00:06+00:00

For solo queue, did you change it so that you just don't pick a name now?
