Description: |
One day, on a whim, twenty-year old Minato decides to walk around the city dressed in her friend's cute high school uniform. To her horror, she ends up running into her stepbrother, Tooru, who is actually only months younger than her. Since he's cute and a notorious player, Minato has had to deal with constant jealousy and suspicion from other girls throughout her entire school days.
Amazingly, she manages to convince Tooru that she's actually someone who just happens to look a lot like his stepsister. He is so convinced that he starts trying to date her and, for various reasons, she goes along with it. What started as a simple joke is now evolving into the biggest lie Minato has ever told! |

Tooru has repressed feelings for Minato; he liked Minato when their parents were not married yet. When Tooru realized that he and Minato would be step-siblings, he became the guy he is prior to meeting "Mina"; he dates other girls because he knows he can't be with his sister.
However, when he sees Minato as "Mina", he thinks this is the closest thing he'll get to a relationship with Minato.
Tooru's kind of enigmatic, but he keeps tabs on his sister when she goes to the gokon and when Karasuma brings her home -- basically whenever she's interacting with other guys. I find that a little suspicious. The jury's still out on whether or not he knows Minato = Mina, but I'm leaning towards him knowing.
@Cydric I also suspect the brother is playing along. Seems like they are both lying to each other - the title is Liar x Liar, after all
Even though this manga is quite good, I am always nervous about reading the next chapter. Like a time bomb that is about to explode but I can't stop reading V__V.
