LIAR GAME REBORNSo, I might be 3 years late for watching this movie but actually, when I found that Erika Toda was not in this movie, I was even hesitant to watch it. But then again, Matsuda Shota is still playing Akiyama and Mikako Tabe is someone I know of as an actress so I became curious to find out as to what kind of story will they offer.For the reborn story of Liar game, Shinomiya Yu (Mikako Tabe) received a liar game invitation just after her graduation. Unsure and Afraid as to what this game would offer, she seek the help of her professor which was revealed to be Akiyama Shinichi. I love how they showed that after two years since Liar Game Final Stage, Akiyama is now a professor teaching psychology. I love the connection that Shinomiya and Akiyama though it was not a close and direct relationship. There were familiar faces in the movie aside of Akiyama like Fukunaga, the police officer with the golden tooth and Mai from Liar Game Final Stage. I would just have to say that it seems like the name Kanzaki Nao was specified to not be mentioned in the movie. I mean, with Fukunaga, the police officer and Mai in the scene, how can Nao’s name not be mention at all? I’m confused and hurt both at the same time. Like, where is she? I thought it would be better if they at least mention her as if she is somewhere that the liar game can’t reach or that Akiyama was able to sent her somewhere far and that she is safe. Like, a closure would be good for her character. Talking about Tabe’s character Shinomiya, I would have to say that I am both impressed and pissed off on her character, well, just with her character. I am impressed in such a way that I thought, she would be just another Nao kind of character but she was not. She has her own thinking, had her will to not trust Akiyama right away and her own stand on playing the game. Which brings me to me being pissed off at her. I was pissed off at her stupidness in this movie because unlike Nao, Nao is stupid but trust Akiyama while Shinomiya is stupid like plain stupid. She even betrayed Akiyama by her own thinking that Akiyama would betray her. But I think, that made her character, her. And though it was an annoying scene, still, I would say that it made sense for the story.The last thing that I noticed is that the other players aside Akiyama and Shinomiya were so easy to recruit in their group and to ask for their trust. Like for example, Mai who I know should be able to trust Akiyama because she already know him but I observed that in previous liar game series, Nao had a hard time to recruit people to trust. Remember how many time Fukunaga betrayed her and Akiyama? I mean, those kind of situations. It left me wondered then that if Nao would have been the one in the game, I’m very much sure that it was an easier game to have.How would I rate this movie? Well, I’d say that it was still a pretty good movie. Though, still, I would want Kanzaki Nao than Shinomiya Yu. We still have the ever cool Akiyama anyway so still a plus to watch the movie.  -- source link
