If you enjoyed Liar Game you may like Tomodachi Game (there is a scene similar to the apple scenario from Liar Game in this so you may enjoy that) or Tobaku Haouden Zero.
https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/shoukoku_no_altair/ the main character is a tactician and his ideas to win battles are genuinely smart, instead of his 'genius' title just being a label.
What I like most about the way this 'genius' character is written is that while he pulls off victories in some really disadvantageous situations, he also loses occasionally. And while he is good at thinking up and carrying out war tactics, there are other characters who are better than him in politics, diplomacy, leading the people etc. So it feels a lot more realistic compared to other 'genius' characters from other mangas
Thank you!
Thank you!
Not just people slapped with a smart person label that are only academically capable and are otherwise inept with everything else. I want to see practical application of their intelligence. Something like in Liar Game or Chang Ge Xing or Kingdom where the characters use their abilities to navigate their way in situations. At the bare minimum just someone with social intelligence. Any genre I just wanna see smart ppl do smart ppl things
