The manga launched in Shueisha‘s Grand Jump Mucha magazine on February 25, but it also began serialization in the sister magazine Grand Jump Mecha on May 27. The manga is set after the ending of the original manga, and centers on Nao tackling a new “game.”
The manga inspired an upcoming television anime that debuted on April 6, and is still ongoing. Anime distributor REMOW introduces the series:
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?
The original manga ran from 2005 to January 2015 in Shueisha‘s Weekly Young Jump magazine. Shueisha published the manga’s 19th compiled book volume in May 2015.
The manga previously inspired two live-action films, two live-action television series, and two live-action online series. The manga also inspired a stage play in 2023.

The film will open in Japan on November 27.
Kodansha USA Publishing releases the manga and describes the story:
A boy named Kaboku sees a girl named Wanda dance, and suddenly burns with a need to join in. With its thrilling scenes of Japanese hip-hop dance and quirky, charming characters, this is a new, inspirational manga for fans of coming-of-age stories like Blue Period and Your Lie in April. Get up and join the Wandance!
Kaboku has always just gone with the flow, marching in step to the drumbeat of the expectations of those around him: parents, school, plans for the future. It feels predictable, safe, and… empty. But one night, Kaboku’s at school late, and he happens on a girl alone, moving wildly, turning a blank space of concrete into a canvas. This is Hikari Wanda, a member of the hip-hop dance club. Kaboku is immediately smitten, but the road to stepping out of his shell is a long one. The club is almost entirely girls, and they’re all, well, way better than him. What’s ahead is unknown, and that’s terrifying, but it also means, for the first time in Kaboku’s life… a taste of freedom.
&Team boy band member JO plays the film’s protagonist Kaboku Kotani, and Anji Ikehata (Yano-kun no Futsū no Hibi, Lonely Castle in the Mirror) stars as Hikari Wanda.
Naoya Kusaba is directing the film, with a script by Keiichi Kobayashi. Dancer and entrepreneur Charisma Kantarō is supervising the film’s dances.
Coffee launched the manga in Afternoon magazine in 2019, and is simultaneously published in Kodansha‘s Magazine Pocket app. Kodansha published the manga’s 15th compiled book volume in December 2025. Kodansha USA Publishing will release the 14th volume in English on November 2026.
A television anime adaptation debuted in Japan in October 2025. Disney+ streamed the anime as it aired in Japan.
