Ah, but we don't love to hate him. He's just annoying, and not a good villain at all.
I still haven't watched episode 7 yet. Soon.
I agree with you GoddessCarlie. The Mushroom guy is plain annoying and it's not even like he can act or is a good villian. I mean other good villians actually make u hate them or such but this guys just annoys me to the core. >.< I have never found anyone as annoying as him in a series before.
Nah we love Nao as Erika and the innocent Nao, but her stupidity gets to people. I mean damn... most of us here must have in every episode shouted "stupid sutpid; gosh she can't think!!! what the f?" when we watch this, right?
Damn, I want to watch ep7 but I'm waiting for the subs. TT_TT oh Mien.

I actually find Liar Game more painstaking than suspenseful. In fact, it hasn't created any suspense so far, just a lot of long-drawn out, brain-numbing explanations, weird, over the top characters, bad acting by the co-actors, and overwhelming camera angles/editing tricks. The only thing keeping me in the game is Akiyama's coolness and my loyalty to Toda Erika.
Ep.5 was only 36 minutes long and yet it felt SO long-winded! I was watching the progress bar and almost groaning because it wasn't ending yet... I was practically gripped with horror that Nao would turn all goody-goody and foolishly kind when she started sympathizing with the other losers.
Oh God, I will be honest like Nao and say that people like you, and posts like this post you made, annoy the hell out of me.
Painstaking? Oh please, this drama is going at a very fast rate compared to MOST if not all japanese dramas out there (except the ancient ones - i dont watch those). I can't possibly see how one could say this is so long and boring. Yes there's some explanation here and there. But oh for the sake of people who are not as "smart" as you, can you please just let them explain the tricks as how they are doing it now? Because I don't think it's too long or too repetitive. In fact, even though I could guess how the plan is going, I still enjoy very much all the explanation because the acting is pretty funny (mushroom guy).
So yes please "the few people" who complain they "can guess almost everything that is going on", or "the explanation is so long omg i can't stand it i just wish it'd end already", do us a favor and stop watchin the show, or stop showing off in here because you are just simply very annoying.
There's a reason why a lot of people vote for this show as their favorite, so if u really wish it'd end already while watching it, then turn off ur computer and do something else that makes u more happy
I'm very sorry that I upset you so much. I agree that the explanations ARE necessary. But a couple of the explanations really take up way too much time, especially when they repeat them over and over.
You can also look at it on the other hand...if you're so upset that I complain about long explanations, perhaps I can also be upset that the explanations are too long? There's really no need to get so worked up over differing opinions. Besides, I still stand by it that Ep.4/5 were painstaking. Regardless of their length, be it 10 mins or 30 mins, it was the way the episodes were scripted and directed. A 4-hour movie can be amazing, and a 40-min episode can be painstaking, or it can be the other way round. It's all in the content. I found it painstaking, you didn't. That's all there is to it.
I WILL continue watching Liar Game because I started it and I might as well end it. Besides, Shota and Erika are still there, and I'm holding on to the hope that it'll get better as it goes along. I'm sorry if I came across as arrogant, I certainly did not intend to do so. But I will not post any more negative comments about this show, since it clearly incites so much 'hatred'.
All that said, I've finally finished Ep.6. I suppose it's not negative to say that Mushroom's laughter really grates on the nerves?

I was a bit disappointed to see Akiyama rushing to Nao's aid (or at least I assume he was) at the end, because I kinda hoped that Nao would come out with a brilliant strategy herself...but really, all it seemed was that she got deceived again and again, and cried...and it seemed set up for Akiyama to enter. I want Nao to defeat that bunch of people by herself...

Maybe she will - it's still too early, she's just warming up. You could see she actually enjoyed having tricked the others for a while before realizing what happened and apologizing. It's quite possible she'll actually trick people towards the end of the show.

You are right that there are others who are and have been cheated. After all this is "Liar Game" isn't it? However, most of the focus goes to Nao because of her personality and her actions based on her personality. She doesn't have any reserves like the others do which is why she is continiously tricked. It's extremely easy to use her as a tool when tricking others.
Personally I'd be neither. If you had #15 as an option, I'd be her. Though she got deceived by that Mushroom, she is able to be cunning when it came to working with Akiyama in ep. 5. She doesn't act impaitent like the Mushroom and she didn't act reckless like he did in his plan to decive people. Plus, I liked her hoice of outfit Also she wasn't full on clueless like Nao.

'LIAR GAME' drama gets 3-hour finale
Fuji TV's "LIAR GAME" drama series is getting an extended final episode. On June 23, instead of running in its regular 11:10-11:55 time slot, the program will air from 9:00 to 11:55.
This is a first for a drama series. There have been many cases where a final episode is extended (generally by 15 minutes) or a series gets a later special episode, but no serialized drama has ever had a finale extended to 3 hours.
"LIAR GAME" has attracted decent ratings and has become very popular among young viewers. In an Oricon survey early in the season, it had the second-highest viewer satisfaction rating behind "Kaette Kita Jikou Keisatsu."
Actor Kinya Kitaoji will make a guest appearance in the final episode as Hasegawa, the head of the "game."

Great! So, the head of the game is also the same actor who plays the main villain in Karei Naru Ichizoku.I can't wait for this finale.

3 hour finale? Uhm, wouldn't that double the entire running time of the show? Are we going to have an exam after the (inevitable) one hour presentation on How To Play Liar Game Like a Pro?
I'm kinda hoping that they run the finale like a separate TV movie. I just don't know if I can stand 3 hours of Mushroom Guy yelling at Nao in a sound stage while the cinematographer drops multiple hits of acid. But, then again, given the budget they must have saved producing this show, hey this could be Death Mushroom. That would rawk!

Given how ratings been this season, I think you have to say LG has been a legitimate success.

Wow! 3 hours?! I'm so happy! ^^ Liar Game has been very enjoyable and I'm reluctant that it will finish soon. But I wonder what the 3 hours will be about?
