Pretty good
Kiss Me Liar is the poster child of old generation yaois, at least in the omegaverse genre. When you imagine one of those, you get a clear archetype in mind. No complicated psyches, just a whole lot of animalistic fùcking. 'twas a simpler time.
First of all, the art is geared mostly towards the sèx. Yeah okay, the character design is good, but we all know why we are here. And we are here to see a twink get dynamically railed by a hunk of manmeat, while fluids splash everywhere and his guts get rearranged into a straight line filled with cüm. That's it, that's the whole thing.
Of course, this means that the writing is... very omegaverse. Everytime these two idiots utter "my alpha" or "my omega" I read the line in Stanzi Potenza's voice. Not great, not terrible, very cringe.
So the characterization will decide the grade then. Who is Yeonwoo? A decently strong-willed twig. He is written okaishly, but I enjoy his scheming and his lies: I didn't get bored while following him around. Then, who is Keith? An idiot. No, really. He shares his one, lonely brain cell with the global population of orange cats, and he gets his turn with it very rarely. Contrary to the cats, tho, he is a disloyal, furless fùckboy, so that makes him somewhat lesser than them, if not outright unlikeable. But at least he is hotter than the average ginger (This is a non-furry review).
In conclusion, ML has the personality of a cheese grater. That's it, the manga sucks then? No. Not really. Old style omegaverse stories, with light characterization and an uncritical focus on pheromone dynamics, have their place and their appeal. It just so happens that I think this is prime wànk material.
8½ on the Ivern Scale™️. A classic.
