Akiyama is losing intentionally.

He wants to take on the burden of all the participants. It makes sense so far.

That does not make sense.... Loosing first won't help him do that at all as there would be 2 other teams that would be equally screwed. The game does not even allow for a player to get someone's debts either. The game is about choosing a winner and hoping said winner sticks to his word. I think the game will be won by yokoya but nao will change his heart and whatnot. At which point he saves everyone.

Re: Liar Game Chapter 190 Discussion/191 Prediction

I think yokoya might be missing a detail here... Sure, he is not aiming to win however is it something that should matter to akiyama or nao? The game is about picking someone to win the game and that team can do whatever with the money. Yokoya aims to loose because he wants to sink nao however the winning team could help as much as any other team. Akiyama winning would guarantee that the money gets distributed but it does not mean someone else couldn't do that.

It looks like Akiyama's team is about the lose. Hmmm.... I hope someone translates 193 soon

Damn... I can't guess what Akiyama is planning at all..

Re: Liar Game Chapter 190 Discussion/191 Prediction

Yeah.. but whenever his plan is being revealed i have goosebumps

Re: Liar Game Chapter 190 Discussion/191 Prediction

I really cannot see how he could manage to win at this point.
Unless he wants to be the first to lose, and that is plan relies on tricking the others after his defeat somehow...

I just can't see him win with only the 7 points left.
If he does, I'm gonna be extremely surprised!

I believe it has something to do with forcing wu and shu to reach 1 point at the same time, resulting in no one being willing to input any action, therefore bringing the end result to a deuce.

I just fail to see how Akiyama just by controlling his own team's LP count would be able to perform such a trick but well, there has to be something..

There's a theory, I can see that working, since the nations on Yokoya's side are always suppose to defend, so if say they both somehow were at one, they have to defend and can't attack, but if they defend then they lose but if they attack they lose, but if they don't defend Akiyama will attack them. I wonder if he will be able to pull this off. The way it might work is if he just starts defending however he has to feign like he's still going to attack so they keep their defenses up and then maybe 10 rounds in when Yoko makes a move to put down defenses Akiyama will attack swiftly but then not attack again for 10 round or 20, or 30 and then attack again to put them on the ropes unknown to how he will act.

Forcing everyone to one point would not work though. The rules say that in the event of a tie the first one to input a command will be the winner after all. I think the core issue here is that it ultimately does not matter who wins. The in game strategy is crap, its a simple matter of choosing a winner and hoping the winner distributes the wealth.

That would be a sad finale, after all of those twist in the previous games, but I think you might be right...

Latest spoiler shows Akiyama's team is 0. So they are out of the game...

 

[Lozmaster]

Re: Liar Game Chapter 190 Discussion/191 Prediction

Unsurprised he lost. AFter all, it was mathematically impossible Yokoya to not beat Akiyama once he had reached 7 points, especially if you take into account the idea that Yokoya wants to lose too (if that is really true).

194 is out : http://www.mangahere.co/manga/liar_game/v14/c194/

Something tells me that if they went and shown all that plan, it won't happen like that.
Otherwise, it would kinda spoil everything, wouldn't it?

Re: Liar Game Chapter 190 Discussion/191 Prediction

I expect some kind of lame cheat in which Akiyama switched his position with someone else without anyone noticing
