ANN: Usotoki Rhetoric Vol1 Review

Filed under: News — Staff @ 11:24:43

In the first year of the Showa Era (1926), a young woman named Kanoko has left her village because of the fear and hate generated over her power to hear when someone is lying. She thinks she's found a job in Tsukumaya Town only to find out that she was wrong, and she's about to move on when she has an encounter with a private detective named Soma. Far from being horrified by her power, Soma's excited about it, and before she quite knows what's happening, Kanoko finds that she does have a job in Tsukumaya Town – as Soma's assistant.
