dun dun dun, looks like Nao will make a contribution to this first round. I wonder what kind of trap she has in mind.

my first reaction at the end, lol.
the trap may be interesting to know about.

my guess is the passing. both players can pass up to a certain point, and then the person needs to shoot. so if both sides passed completely then 1 will have to shoot. probably wrong, but who knows. theres little to think of for this game besides the rules after the whole center of gravity deal.

Not sure, because my reasoning would be that you skip the next 2 rounds (Assuming they are their 3, we are not positively sure the other team put all 3 in order), and then you are free to shoot at least 2 more. However, Fukunagi said the center of gravity was way off, so there may be 4 in a row, or 2 in a row and one towards the end. Even so, they are so much in the lead, and we know where at least four more non-blank rounds are, it should be an easy win. Unless Nao is thinking in the long run and perhaps losing this game is in the other team favor? I am thinking the latter since in the other teams discussion it seems they did put 3 in a row. Therefore, the last 6 slots will be empty for sure, and all Fukunagi needs to do is shoot.

Just have to loev announcing a trap and then being done the chapter....Wonder if its a serious trap or something Akiyama can diffuse as not being an issue? Nao needs to have a moment to shine.

Thought for sure it would be Fukunagi that would lose the opening round to put the pressure on Nao at the end. But since I feel she has to participate it probably will be Akiyama who loses his matchup which is odd considering its him.

Not bad strategies put forward by Fukunagi in this. The gunpowder trick wasn't bad and definitely shook the other guy up. Has played that round pretty well.

reread the chapters. seems like this would be the right meaning of nao saying theyre heading to a trap.
went through the chapters explaining the rules and gravity, didnt see any problems that i can see.
and the end, nao said that the vanguard game would be their win, then she realized.
gonna check the chapter before the announcing of the game to see whats up.

could also be something about the gravity that she suddenly remembers and realizes at the end all of the sudden, lol.


too tired to think much about expanding the idea. lol.

This is a revival game, so the losers can't continue playing. But Nao'll probably give them money when they lose anyway, to clear their debt.

Maybe there's something about splitting the winnings evenly, or about the chips lost on passing? If they keep passing all the time the chips go to the dealer, so that both teams lose money, and they can't return 300 million to the Liar Game office even if they win?

I'm not at all sure what the trap is supposed to be. Maybe somehow what they are doing in this first match will put Akiyama at a disadvantage in the next one? Can't wait for the next chapter so I'll have a clue :).

I think that that is it. Since if everyone passes because they know a blank is there, is the money is taken out of play?

Apparently the dealer pulls the trigger instead... but what happens then?

Nao's trap is probably gonna be telling them she doesn't mind losing since she was planning to suck 1000 dicks to make up for the money, that'll definitely apply the confused status on the other team.

Anyways it's unfair how good Fukunaga looks with just a wig.


Truly, comparisons between fellow humans are what turn out to be the most infuriating.

This is a really interesting read so far. The games are intense and the explanations are very nice too!
