The anime is based on Shinobu Kaitani’s manga series of the same name which was serialised in Shueisha’s Weekly Young Jump magazine from 2005 to 2015. The manga’s 19th and last collected book volume came out in May 2015. It was adapted into a Japanese tv series in 2007, which released a second season in 2009. It also had two live action movies which came out in 2010 and 2012.
REMOW describes the anime’s story as:
A Mysterious Invitation. One Hundred Million Yen. The Game Begins.
College student Nao Kanzaki suddenly receives a strange letter and a suitcase containing 100 million yen. She's been chosen to participate in the LIAR GAME—a high-stakes psychological battle where lies, deception, and betrayal reign supreme. Naïve and painfully honest, Nao quickly finds herself cornered. To survive, she turns to Shinichi Akiyama, a brilliant former con artist with unmatched intellect. As they dive deeper into the twisted game, the two must outwit opponents in a world where trusting others could be fatal. In a game built on lies, can honesty prevail?
