Koi to Uso (Love and Lies): Season 1/ Episode 12 “Love and Lies” [Series Finale] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)
It’s the final episode of Koi to Uso (Love and Lies) and so comes the question of: Who ends up with Yukari?
It’s the final episode of Koi to Uso (Love and Lies) and so comes the question of: Who ends up with Yukari?
Is there any hope at all for what Ririna may be feeling or has she long succumb to the idea that she should just be happy Yukari is in her life?
Despite the intrigue Shuu seemingly was going to present, in the end, we are still waiting for Yukari to make a decision. Notice or not.
The gender swapped Romeo and Juliet finally gets performed but what steals the show, more so episode, is something Yajima talks about and Shuu confirms.
As Ririna continues to keep her distance from Yukari, Takasaki becomes more torn between expressing her feelings and dealing with what she feels is fate.
After Yukari makes his move, it seems to have shaken Ririna up to the point she may be forced to acknowledge her feelings. Something Takasaki fears for she is as in love with Yukari as ever.
And so it begins. Riri starts to realize she may be falling for Yukari but can he feel the same about her? Especially when the government isn’t watching?
During the camping trip, Ririna comes to the realization that, as Takasaki and Yukari’s relationship progresses, there may not be room for her. On top of some other things Nisaka, quite cruelly, says to her, it may change her willingness to play match maker.
It’s a lot of what we are already used to in “The Science of Love” to the point it is hard to say the story is moving forward.
Screw whatever Scum’s Love comparison I made. Koi to Oso (Love & Lies) may have some similarities, but it is much lighter and can be jaw dropping without sexual content.
Yukari officially meets his arranged wife and her reaction to him talking about Takasaki and revealing she is his second choice is kind of strange.
So, Koi to Uso may very likely be one of my favorite shows of the summer. Live action shows included.
The overall goal of Wherever I Look is to fill in that space between the average fan and critic and advise you on what’s worth experiencing.
